Understanding the four types of AI, from reactive robots to self-aware beings

November 23, 2016 by Neville Hobson

The common, and recurring, view of the latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence research is that sentient and intelligent machines are just on the horizon. Machines understand verbal commands, distinguish pictures, drive cars and play games better than we do. How much longer can it be before they walk among us? By Arend Hintze, Michigan State University The new White House report on artificial intelligence takes an appropriately skeptical view of that dream. It says the next 20 … [Read more...] about Understanding the four types of AI, from reactive robots to self-aware beings

The rise of the cognitive PR machines

February 15, 2016 by Neville Hobson 

Within two years, 20 percent of business content will be authored by machines or "robo writers," as Gartner puts it in its list of ten predictions of an algorithmic and smart machine-driven world that the analyst firm published last October. It was a topic I used as a focal point in my presentation about PR measurement and how it's getting smarter partly through automation that captured close attention from the 50+ PR pros in the audience at a CIPR event in London last week. Content that is … [Read more...] about The rise of the cognitive PR machines
