AI and the Future of Work: The Economic Impacts of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the ability of machines to interpret data and act intelligently, meaning they can make decisions and carry out tasks based on the data at hand – rather like a human does. Chances are you’ve read a lot about AI in recent years – particularly how it’s going to save the […]
5 Reasons Why Artificial Intelligence Really Is Going To Change Our World
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the ability of machines to interpret data and act intelligently, meaning they can make decisions and carry out tasks based on the data at hand – rather like a human does.

Time for healthcare to make better use of data
Machine learning is only effective if it is based on accurate sources From Palo Alto to Dar es Salaam, healthcare is high tech when it comes to objects, but remarkably low tech in the effective algorithmic use of data. The application of machine learning to the health of individuals should be the principal focus for […]
How Artificial Intelligence Will Change Medicine
The biomedical world is awash in data. We have terabytes of genomic information from mouse to human, troves of health metrics from clinical trials, and reams of so-called real-world data from insurance companies and pharmacies. Using powerful computers, scientists have scrutinized this bounty with some fine results, but it has become clear that we can […]
An AI can simulate an economy millions of times to create fairer tax policy
Deep reinforcement learning has trained AIs to beat humans at complex games like Go and StarCraft. Could it also do a better job at running the economy? Income inequality is one of the overarching problems of economics. One of the most effective tools policymakers have to address it is taxation: governments collect money from people according […]
