On this week’s podcast, Michael Shepherd, Distinguished Engineer at Dell Technologies focused on AI, describes the present and future of intelligent software. Fascinating discussion about using AI for good… and what could happen if we lose control. Worth listening to hear when Michael thinks we’ll achieve AGI (artificial general intelligence), where bots are indistinguishable from humans. Listen and learn… About Michael’s vision for “analytics at the speed of thought”. How Michael describes the “three Vs of big data”. Why laptops may soon not need charging cables. Why knowing the answer will be less important in the future. Research referenced in this episode: Imagine a world without wiresGoogle’s DeepMind beats doctors at breast cancer detectionThe ethics of AI
