THE FUTURE IS HERE

A.I. – Let’s Lose the Hype and Think Practically | Advait Sarkar | TEDxCambridgeUniversity

Advait has had enough of the unhelpful media frenzy bandwagon around artificial intelligence and presents a better way of thinking about AI — namely, that it is simply the next step for computer interfaces, of which there is a long and well-studied history.

Dr. Advait Sarkar is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Microsoft Research Cambridge’s Human Experience and Design Group. He studies the intersection of design and artificial intelligence. His aim is to produce intelligent computer systems that are easier to use, and that effectively utilize the best aspects of human and machine capability.
