Artificial intelligence in business: Separating the real from the hype
Most of us followed the exciting introduction of the new iPhone X, and there you also saw in the press conference, it's all about machine learning now for face recognition, applied also, machine learning in face recognition to unlock your phone. So, I think we all experience it already with our smartphones, and going forward, we'll see much more of it. Michael Chui: What we're starting to see is these AI technologies underpinning a lot of the things, all the online and mobile services that we're now increasingly taking advantage of. So, for instance, in e-commerce or media, when systems are providing you with suggestions for things you might be interested in, things you might be interested in reading or things you might be interested in buying--the next-product-to-buy use case, as we describe it--increasingly, those types of systems are powered not only by statistical methods, but by some of these AI technologies as well, hopefully bringing consumers closer to the things that they'd be most interested in. Simon London: I'm going to throw one more into the pot there. I'm lucky enough to live in the city of Mountain View in Silicon Valley. There are a surprising number of self-driving cars out on the road.
