ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Published September 26, 2019
How artificial intelligence
is taking over our world
By Blair Shiff FOXBusiness
It sounds like a plot of a science-fiction novel: A future that doesn't need human beings.
But is it more reality than fantasy?
Most people use artificial intelligence and probably don't even realize they're using it --
whether it's asking Siri a question or trying to avoid a traffic jam using GPS or even using
our faces as a password to access our smartphones.
Artificial intelligence is defined as the capability of a machine to imitate intelligent human
behavior. This is already apparent in the workforce, as machines are increasingly building
other machines and people are using AI reminders instead of personal assistants.
In certain areas of pathology and radiology, a computer sometimes does a better job
detecting cancer in a patient than a doctor does.
"If I have lots and lots of examples of the past of things, skin lesions that were labeled
melanoma versus not, I could use all those examples to train a machine and neural
network to be able to sort of make a determination as to whether is malign or not," IBM
Director of Research Dario Gill told FOX Business' Maria Bartiromo.
