II. Disrupt
3d printing house - http://3dprint.com/82322/chinese-3d-modular-homes/
Why?zero friction to move/copy
zero marginal cost
apply computation
correlation
machine learning
modeling
simulation
Solar energy
Poorest countries = sunniest countries —> how that would change political & economic scene?
In 2016 solar energy cheaper than electricity in US
III. Demonetize
IV. Democratize
Bioinformatics
Faster than Moore’s
3 components
Reading - DNA sequencing
Writing - Genetical Engineering

3 mythsYou cant just sprinkle a little bit of AI
Garbage In - Garbage Out (you have to clean & shape data before using it)
Smart algorithms are not the same as human level intelligence or sentience
—> start with the problem, not AI algorithm. Framing the problem is THE important step
AI comes with tradeoffs

AI
Symbols - computer are very good at
Perceptions - just become good at
Concepts - just starting —> why? —> cant make decisions without data, need to have mechanical models about reality
Where we areVicarious —> next generation AI algorithm that passed Captcha test
Future states of cow —> AI imagination
Human brain had no upgrade for 50K years
Siri & Google Now - long way to understand our intentions & wishes
Books
Race against the machine
Kasparov - How life imitates chess
AI changes balance of power —> Radical abundance by Drexler
Abundance by Diamandis
RecommendationsCrowdsource
Utilize
Use publicly available tools
AI platforms (Google, Watson, Amazon, Microsoft)
Rethinking business processes
Notes from Q&A
What excites most? —> AI drives us to evidence based decision making
AI needs data!
