4 AI Predictions for 2023: From the Great Correction to Practical AI
Enthusiasm for self-driving cars has waned and automakers are rethinking or exiting their robo-taxi plans. This is just one sign that we are in the middle of the Great Correction in AI -- a period when wild ambitions and moon-shot ideas are being replaced by more realistic approaches to artificial intelligence and its attendant machine learning (ML) models, algorithms, and neural networks. I'm calling this the new pragmatism of Practical Artificial Intelligence, and I predict this technology will rise in 2023 like a phoenix from the ashes of years of irrational exuberance around artificial intelligence. Under the umbrella of practicality, companies will strategically rethink how they use artificial intelligence, an attitudinal shift that will filter down to implementation, AI and machine learning model management, and governance. Generative AI -- in which algorithms create synthetic data --has been a big buzzword lately, with slick image-generation capabilities grabbing headlines.

Practical AI for Healthcare Professionals: Machine Learning with Numpy, Scikit-learn, and TensorFlow: Suri, Abhinav: 9781484277799: Amazon.com: Books
Once you've mastered those basic computer science and programming concepts, you can dive into projects with code, implementation details, and explanations. These projects give you the chance to explore using machine learning algorithms for issues such as predicting the probability of hospital admission from emergency room triage and patient demographic data. We will then use deep learning to determine whether patients have pneumonia using chest X-Ray images.
The geopolitics of artificial intelligence (Practical AI #186)
In this Fully-Connected episode, Chris and Daniel explore the geopolitics, economics, and power-brokering of artificial intelligence. What does control of AI mean for nations, corporations, and universities? What does control or access to AI mean for conflict and autonomy? The world is changing rapidly, and the rate of change is accelerating. Daniel and Chris look behind the curtain in the halls of power.
Practical AI with Python and Reinforcement Learning
This course is in an "early bird" release, and we're still updating and adding content to it, please keep in mind before enrolling that the course is not yet complete. "The future is already here – it's just not very evenly distributed." Have you ever wondered how Artificial Intelligence actually works? Do you want to be able to harness the power of neural networks and reinforcement learning to create intelligent agents that can solve tasks with human level complexity? This is the ultimate course online for learning how to use Python to harness the power of Neural Networks to create Artificially Intelligent agents! This course focuses on a practical approach that puts you in the driver's seat to actually build and create intelligent agents, instead of just showing you small toy examples like many other online courses.
Top 4 Ways to Use AI to Enhance the Customer Experience
If the numbers are any indication, you might think chatbots and voice assistants were poised to take over the world. Since the start of the pandemic, nearly a quarter of businesses have increased their spending on artificial intelligence, and 75 percent plan to continue or launch new initiatives post-pandemic. Global spending on AI is expected to double by 2024. AI is Quickly becoming a foundation of customer support particularly, but consumer opinion is blended. Fifty percent of clients believe chatbots and VAs make it more challenging to solve a problem, but 37 percent say they would prefer to get instant assistance from a bot than wait for a human.

Jim McGowan, head of product at ElectrifAi – Interview Series
Jim McGowan, is the head of product at ElectrifAi, they specialize in extracting massive amounts of disparate data, transforming chaotic structured and unstructured data into actionable business insights. What is it that attracted you to the world of machine learning and AI? I first encountered Machine Learning while earning a doctorate for work in cognitive science. AI systems largely consisted of distilling an expert's experience down to a flow chart. This seemed intuitively to work, but the systems quickly grew too complex and weren't living up to their promise.
Exploring the COVID-19 Open Research Dataset with Lucy Lu Wang from Allen AI (Practical AI #86)
Yeah, so the entire project is a coordinated effort by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. I think some time in early March a group at Georgetown, the Center for Security in Emerging Technology (CSET) reached out to us at Allen AI to help coordinate the release of this dataset, along with a couple of different organizations. You mentioned MSR (Microsoft Research), Chan Zuckerberg, Kaggle was also involved, and the National Library of Medicine, which is part of the NIH. So all these groups - we're going to come together to essentially create this dataset to help create text mining and information retrieval tools that could assist medical experts in understanding more of what was going on with the epidemic. For Allen AI, the way that we got involved is we had recently created a new pipeline to revamp our open research corpus.
Operationalizing machine learning: The future of practical AI
The key to delivering consistent business value with AI is to employ operational machine learning workflows that fully integrate machine learning models into standard enterprise processes in a reliable and repeatable fashion. That's where MLOps comes in. "There are fundamentally two things enterprises can do with machine learning: One is to make processes more efficient, and the other is to launch new products and features," says Piero Cinquegrana, data scientist and co-author of O'Reilly's "Machine Learning at Enterprise Scale." These processes could be sales process, marketing measurement, operations, and tasks that are repeatable and automatable--all kinds of what Cinquegrana calls domains. "Some classic use cases are measurement, such as scoring leads for sales so that sales account executives don't have to cold call a long list of unqualified leads," he says.
