Intelligent Automation Radio

What do you think of when you hear the phrase “artificial intelligence”? Do your thoughts veer more towards Terminator or Robby the Robot (Will Robinson's guardian from "Lost in Space")? Do you envision future machines being more like Hal from “2001: A Space Odyssey” or Samantha from the 2013 movie "Her"? Nobody knows for sure how real-world AI will eventually evolve, but one person has a better idea than most, and that’s led him to predict where AI, machine learning, & automation will have the biggest impacts. Manish Kothari, President of SRI International leads an organization that’s world-renowned for its innovations in a broad spectrum of focus areas. He joins our show to share his insights on the areas AI, machine learning, & automation are disrupting the most. Along the way we’ll learn whether AI will augment more people or replace more people, whether AI algorithms should be audited like financial statements, and which industry stands to benefit the most from automation, AI, and machine learning.
