- 1. Read chapter one from the textbook
- Mar 28, 2017 2:01 PM CDT | I decided to write a review of the textbook on GoodReads so that others can see what I thought of it: (not really my review, but an example of what could serve as an artifact).
- Hussain’s review of Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, Global EditionDo not be fooled by the publicity around this book, This book will go down in history as the worst book ever written, do not read this book if you value your life, it has it's uses but getting informations is not one of them, it is impossible to understand a single sentence in it, if you want to learn about A.I the you should read https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2936874-artificial-intelligence
- 2. Read the Wikipedia article on Artificial Intelligence to learn about recent developments.
- Artificial intelligence - WikipediaArtificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence exhibited by machines. In computer science, the field of AI research defines itself as the study of "intelligent agents": any device that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success at some goal.[1] Colloquially, the term "artificial intelligence" is applied when a machine mimics "cognitive" functions that humans associate with other human minds, such as "learning" and "problem solving" (known as Machine Learning).
- Mar 28, 2017 2:06 PM CDT | Completed reading the article and decided to also gloss through the Glossary of Artificial Intelligence link and read the Machine Learning link.
- Machine learning - WikipediaMachine learning is the subfield of computer science that, according to Arthur Samuel in 1959, gives "computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed."[1] Evolved from the study of pattern recognition and computational learning theory in artificial intelligence,[2] machine learning explores the study and construction of algorithms that can
- 3. Check Google News on AI for recent news stories.
- Mar 28, 2017 2:08 PM CDT | Read A New Direction for Artificial Intelligence and Treasury Secretary Says He's Not Concerned About Artificial Intelligence Taking Jobs
- A New Direction for Artificial Intelligence?OpenAI will describe a new machine-learning approach at MIT Technology Review’s EmTech Digital conference.
- Treasury Secretary Says He's Not Concerned About Artificial Intelligence Taking JobsIn an interview, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said the threat posed by artificial intelligence is "50 to 100 more years" away.
- 4. Read this blog post I found on AI and comment
- Artificial Intelligence: The Five Tribes of AI | Formtek BlogNeural Network techniques like deep learning are currently very popular. Frameworks to support neural net analysis include Theano, TensorFlow and Caffe. Those frameworks work by analyzing large numbers of example data iteratively, identifying characteristics of the data in one layer, and then passing results from one layer to the next one for further analysis.
- Mar 28, 2017 2:29 PM CDT | Read the blog, and left a comment (not really, since there are no comments, but if I did I could paste it here or even link directly to it if the blog site allows).
- 5. Tweet my thoughts on AI
- Mar 28, 2017 2:18 PM CDT | Decided against tweeting yet, but found this interesting podcast about Watson AI that I decided to listen to instead.
- Artificial intelligence: Can Watson save IBM?IBM is pinning its hopes on turning a smart machine’s box of tricks into practical applications, says Richard Waters. Can it capitalise on the system’s promise of bringing an AI revolution to business?
