Transcript: How far away we are from an unsupervised learner? The idea that we could take a machine learning system and plug it into the internet and have it ingest data and sort it and make sense of it has been a goal for a long time. It's the unsupervised model which says the machine isn't limited by the speed at which we can teach it. In essence, it can teach itself. People who think that artificial intelligence is coming sooner and is potentially more of a threat believe we may be quite close to having an unsupervised learner. People who think it's far away and less of a threat also think that the unsupervised learner, generally speaking, is much further out or maybe that’s it not even possible. https://ift.tt/2KNbrsj gigaom August 15, 2019 at 04:15PM
