Summary | At the World Economic Forum in Davos, everyone will be talking about artifical intelligence (AI). There have been major progress in the field thanks to natural language processing and machine learning. Future products will be using AI to improve our lifestyle; for instance, an electric toothbrush using deep learning algorithms can improve your dental hygiene. What is happening with AI today is not new, but what is different now is the speed; change is happening at a faster rate. However, to improve AI we will need more personal data, which will lead us to cross a creepy line in the future.
