O-M-G!!! Fifty episodes in the can. I can’t believe it. Thank you so much to all of the guest who have been so gracious with their time and pure awesomeness. I started this podcasting journey on a firm foundation thanks to your collective generosity. For that I am truly thankful.

In this episode I muse about some of the great points Avinash Kaushik makes in a recent post about artificial intelligence (AI) and the implication for marketers. The analyst role as we know it may soon be going the way of the dinosaur as we move from solving “known knowns” to solving for “unknown unknowns”. That, and what Avinash calls Complete Day One Knowledge.

If you geek out about these sort of things as Avinash and I clearly do, then you won’t want to miss this episode.

 

You’ll Learn:

  • Why you need to be reading everything Avinash Kaushik writes about AI (like I do).
  • The difference between artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL)
  • How Google and Facebook use AI and machine learning TODAY to keep us all inside “content bubbles”.
  • How predictive analytics company Cambridge Analtica used machine learning to help elect Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United State.
  • Why roles such as data analysts and diagnosing patients will be taken over by AI.
  • Why you should be excited and not fearful of this brave new world.

 

3 Key Points: 

  1. The hype is real. AI isn’t coming; it’s here. Machine learning is actively used by Google and Facebook.
  2. Repetitive roles such as data analysts will soon be taken over by AI.
  3. Just breathe… all will be well. There will still be a place for humans.
