DEEP LEARNING HOW MACHINES ARE TAKING OVER

In last week’s issue, we saw just how deep learning could be beneficial in a whole range of uses. Deep learning, the idea that a machine will think for itself when given access to data, rather than having to be fed information, enables a machine to learn from its mistakes and grow. It’s not a new concept, but in recent years, some of the world’s biggest companies, including Google and Apple, have begun to exploit the technology to improve their operations.

Elements of deep learning are already being used by Apple, with its personal assistant Siri learning from your actions and questions to develop an idea of who you are and what you like. Further afield, deep learning could be used for things like medicine and healthcare, potentially saving billions of dollars on expensive treatments and ensuring that patients are cared for correctly.
