Let’s talk about “Artificial Intelligence” @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence ▪ Is nothing new – the concepts go back to the 50ies @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence ▪ Is nothing new – the concepts go back to the 50ies ▪ Is quite the hype and ver y often misattributed @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence ▪ Is nothing new – the concepts go back to the 50ies ▪ Is quite the hype and ver y often misattributed ▪ Is an umbrella term for a lot of math and science around repetition, pattern recognition and machine learning @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence ▪ Is nothing new – the concepts go back to the 50ies ▪ Is quite the hype and ver y often misattributed ▪ Is an umbrella term for a lot of math and science around repetition, pattern recognition and machine learning ▪ Got a huge boost because of availability of hardware @codepo8

Big brother is redundant… ▪ Ever ything we do online is monitored and recorded ▪ We often don’t realise that our data is how we pay for “free” ser vices ▪ We’re happy to use systems that record all the time in exchange for convenience ▪ Often people don’t realise just how dangerous this can be in the wrong hands . @codepo8

Leaving invisible marks… ▪ By using other people’s machines and infrastructure , we leave traces @codepo8

Leaving invisible marks… ▪ By using other people’s machines and infrastructure , we leave traces ▪ This allows companies to recognise us, and accumulates a usage histor y ▪ This leads to better results , but can leaks data ▪ We should have more transparency about what digital legacy we left behind. @codepo8

Ever ything counts in large amounts @codepo8

Ever ything counts in large amounts ▪ We create a massive amount of information – actively and without our knowledge. @codepo8

Ever ything counts in large amounts ▪ We create a massive amount of information – actively and without our knowledge. ▪ It is tough to make that amount of information consumable again. @codepo8

Ever ything counts in large amounts ▪ We create a massive amount of information – actively and without our knowledge. ▪ It is tough to make that amount of information consumable again. ▪ That’s why we have computers @codepo8

Ever ything counts in large amounts ▪ We create a massive amount of information – actively and without our knowledge. ▪ It is tough to make that amount of information consumable again. ▪ That’s why we have computers ▪ With cloud computing, on demand processing and advances in hardware we’re faster than ever . @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence Myths ▪ AI can’t replace a thinking, creative human @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence Myths ▪ AI can’t replace a thinking, creative human ▪ AI can not magically fill gaps with perfect information – it can only compare and assume @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence Myths ▪ AI can’t replace a thinking, creative human ▪ AI can not magically fill gaps with perfect information – it can only compare and assume ▪ AI doesn’t learn in a creative fashion. It does not transfer. @codepo8

Artificial Intelligence Myths ▪ AI can’t replace a thinking, creative human ▪ AI can not magically fill gaps with perfect information – it can only compare and assume ▪ AI doesn’t learn in a creative fashion. It does not transfer. ▪ AI has no morals and ethics , but – used wrongly – it can amplify our biases @codepo8

Machines can be great tools or weapons… ▪ Machine Learning is all about returning assumptions @codepo8

Machines can be great tools or weapons… ▪ Machine Learning is all about returning assumptions ▪ We don’t get any definitive truth from algorithms , we get answers to our questions @codepo8

Machines can be great tools or weapons… ▪ Machine Learning is all about returning assumptions ▪ We don’t get any definitive truth from algorithms , we get answers to our questions ▪ AI can answer questions, but it is up to you to ask good questions – generic questions yield assumed results. @codepo8

Machines can be great tools or weapons… ▪ Untrained and limited data leads to terrible and biased AI results @codepo8

Machines can be great tools or weapons… ▪ Untrained and limited data leads to terrible and biased AI results ▪ It is ver y easy to get either wrong deductions or false positives @codepo8

Machines can be great tools or weapons… ▪ Untrained and limited data leads to terrible and biased AI results ▪ It is ver y easy to get either wrong deductions or false positives ▪ AI is as intelligent and good as the people who apply it @codepo8
