Welcome to the Momenta Learning News on Artificial Intelligence. This is issue 26, please feel free to share this post.
A year ago today, on April 1, 2015, as part of a project on prediction at the New York Universe - Center for Data Superiority (NYU-CDS), I gathered together a political scientist, a data-driven journalist, a traditional campaign reporter for a major newspaper and an artificial intelligence application created by a major international business machine company to discuss the state of the primary contests and to collect their predictions for the eventual nominees.

Technology Stephen Hawking, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk have something in common, and it's not wealth or intelligence. They' re all terrified of the AI takeover. Also called the AI apocalypse, the AI takeover is a hypothetical scenario where artificially intelligent machines become the dominant life-form on Earth.

If you have seen "careers" and "artificial intelligence" in the same sentence, it's likely because there is yet another article wondering whether certain jobs will soon be done faster and more reliably by an intelligent algorithm. Employers who hire UX professionals needn't worry about their staff being replaced by programmed intelligence any time in the near future.

Artificial Intelligence (AI), or the development of smart machines, has been likened to "building the Internet itself - something that can only be done over time, and with a huge number of incremental advances." The development of a wide array of intelligent machine innovations are underway in labs across the nation, and have breathtaking potential for education, healthcare, business, finance and more.

The roots of modern Artificial Intelligence, or AI, can be traced back to the classical philosophers of Greece, and their efforts to model human thinking as a system of symbols. More recently, in the 1940s, a school of thought called "Connectionism" was developed to study the process of thinking.

In recent months, Silicon Valley companies like Microsoft and Twitter have unveiled new technology that is designed to accommodate the blind. On Tuesday, Facebook jumped onboard with automatic alternative text, a new feature that uses artificial intelligence to describe aloud the contents of photos for visually impaired users, such as how many people are in the photo, whether those people are smiling and how many people have liked the photo using Facebook's in-house object recognition technology.

A Silicon Valley startup wants to use artificial intelligence to help diabetes patients better navigate health and lifestyle decisions. Suggestic, an application and Internet-based platform, is looking to fuse medical advances with a growing trend of personalized healthcare - making interventions specific to the individual patient.
