In the last decade we have witnessed a tremendous development: the rise of the machines. The world is drenched in algorithms and they actively influence our world view. Are we ready? Marcel Blattner sheds light on why education is key for a healthy relationship between Artificial Intelligence and Humans.

Marcel Blattner is a data enthusiast and currently developing all kinds of machine learning algorithms for data voodoo at Tamedia. Before he started to explore the ‘data universe’ he spent several years as a researcher in academia where he got his PhD in theoretical physics. He speaks frequently at conferences and gives lectures in Artificial Intelligence.
