Businesses will distinguish themselves by how well they use it.

This community explores AI technologies, AI (robotic) embodiments, AI applications, AI-human interactions, AI standards and policy, AI predictions and fictions – and their related technical, expectational, ethical and societal issues.

Share & discuss the latest research, techniques, and advancements in artificial intelligence, data science, data visualization, deep learning, machine learning, NLP, computer vision, ethics in AI, robotics, self-driving cars, paper discussions, daily AI news and more!
