Perspectives on AI
What is the future of AI? Some say it is bright and shiny, others see a
dark dystopia. But who is really right or wrong and how can we tell the
difference? There is so much noise in the media that the reader easily
gets lost. I get lost too, because I apply emotion and personal bias.
To help myself, I decided to let a machine do it for me (how
ironic). I trained one of
our text classifiers to distinguish betwen
three categories (concerned, curious, and excited)
and let it get fed with the latest content on AI that appears online. The
result is the constantly updated list you will see below. The model is not
perfect, but is slowly getting better, as I train it with more and more
data.
For feedback and suggestions, feel free to get in touch on
Mastodon and
Twitter.
