Master program in omputer Science Artificial Intelligence
AI is taking over the world AI was the star at the latest Google I/O conference 2 hrs of keynote talk almost every aspect of Google products and services relies on AI today
AI is taking over the world
Big and small players alike are betting on AI
New branches from an old tree 14: John von Neuman, ENIA, a giant brain 150: Alan Turing publishes the Turing Test 155: Arthur Samuel, first learning machine (checkers) 15: Dartmouth conference, birth of the term Artificial Intelligence 158: Frank Rosenblatt, Perceptron, artificial neural network 13: J. Alan Robinson implements general deduction on a computer 1: Joseph Weizenbaum, ELIZA -- the first chatbot 1: Marvin Minsky, Seymour Papert. Fundamental limits of Perceptron 172: Alain olmerauer, Prolog -- efficient computing by rules. 170-180: AI Winter. NN approaches discredited. Symbolic approaches do not deliver. 180: Expert systems (rules+knowledge) deployed in a number of applications 185: NNs rediscovered; backpropagation with hidden layers 10: NNs out of fashion (hard limits on data and computing) 15: Principled (statistical) approaches to Machine Learning 17: IBM s Deep Blue beats Garry Kasparov at chess (brute force) 2015: Microsoft s deep rectified model exceeds human accuracy in classifying images 201: Google s AlphaGo beats Lee Sedol at Go
areer opportunities In established companies that are building the next generation of intelligence and language understanding for their products, for example: intelligent personal assistants opinion mining systems customer support system biomedical applications computer games smart adaptive devices robots smart planning systems In your own startup, a chance to create new product categories In consulting for companies or public bodies In Research and Academy, working on advancing fundamental theories and applications alike significant amounts of venture capital available unexplored market opportunities acquisition, merge, hiring, or growth significant lack of in-house AI expertise AI will have a transformative impact on any type of business setting public policies, informing decision-making In legal, economics, ethics, arts, humanities think at the impact of mobile. It s like that.
