LUCA’s First White Paper: Surviving the AI HypeLUCA 23 December, 2016 LUCA has published its first white paper today entitled “Surviving the AI Hype – Fundamental concepts to understand Artificial Intelligence“. Written by Dr Richard Benjamins, this piece aims to empower our readers to interpret and assess the increasing amount of content around AI currently available online. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the hottest topics out there at the moment, and it is often merely associated with chatbots such as Siri or other cognitive programs such as Watson. However, AI is much broader than just that. To understand what we read in the press and on the Internet, it is important to understand some of the “AI basics”, which are often lost in the midst of AI hype out there at the moment. By understanding these fundamental principles, you will be able to make your own judgment on what you read or hear about AI.
