Men and Machine: An Artifical Love Affair?
summary
Panelists argue that AI already moves beyond lab demos: IBM Watson is commercialized after Jeopardy, and Amazon Machine Learning is live so nonexperts can train models in minutes. Concrete wins: clinical trials cut from ~60 days to hours, an asthma program predicts 19 at-risk children and flags 4 with transport issues for intervention, and a hospital instruments workflows to serve 10,000 more patients and save $200M. Industrial IoT examples include 200,000 trucks with sensors for preventive maintenance. Many startups won’t survive; outcome-focused design and security matter.
