As other fellow commenters remarked, and as an AI enthusiast/researcher myself, I fail to see AI as a business.
What I would like is a fund, or similar that is funding research, because fundamentally we need so much research in this area.
AI as we have it now is just a bunch of ML algos and *NNs that perform well in different niches and, well, after all cat pictures were categorized, what to do next?
So, in case Andrew is reading this post, I would like to have a chat with him about my research ideas and if they could be funded. Because if this happens, many more would follow and then we can see a real progres towards real/hard AI.
- CabSauce 9y agoThere are tons and tons of meaningful uses for the current state of ML. Just about every industry is full of opportunities to apply the most basic algorithms and drive tremendous value. It goes without saying that research is still valuable, but what I haven't seen yet is large, widespread use of applied ML.
- ccozan 9y agoOf course ML has his uses, even now I am doing fully industrial ML. But, in the end, is just an algorithm/NN that does what your suppose to programm it. And is a heck of manual work involved. AI is on a different scale andmay have less to do with the actual implementations.
