Beware the unfettered machine

#artificialintelligence

Niederhoffer will be sitting on the panel Artificial Intelligence – should we unplug man from the machine? In his view, whilst it is clear that in some domains machine learning and artificial intelligence is starting to make a big difference, the key is understanding which domains are appropriate and which domains are potentially problematic. Some domains, like object and speech recognition, linguistic analysis, and credit analysis are perfect for machine learning and particularly, deep learning algorithms. But in Niederhoffer's experience, making short term market predictions using machine learning is perilous, though possible.
