My total out-of-butt reasoning: with low-level AI-ish things becoming commonplace (computing power getting cheaper, and devices becoming more ubiquitous; ever cheaper, more sophisticated robots, O'Reilly books on Collective Intelligence) and more data around, there'll be more demand for harder, truer-AI stuff. And if somehow there isn't, it still helps to have an understanding of the lower-level, easier stuff.
And, there's a lecture on Google video (don't have the link) of a guy going on about how there are lots of expert systems out there run by companies that don't advertise themselves.

It it this, by any chance? http://is.gd/otrN http://is.gd/otrN I haven't seen that one myself (watching it now), but I've seen others where Larry Smith talks about exactly what you mentioned. Unfortunately nobody thought to mic him and his style of moving around makes him hard to hear on a camcorder mic.
- dmix 18y agoThat was a great video. I made this post with an interest primarily in the expert systems part of AI and this video solidified by interest. I now know what I'm going to do after the internet. :)
- queensnake 18y agoYeah, that's it. Too bad he didn't get more specific, give more angles of attack. Except maybe, to learn an industry and think of how to automate within it.
