While we're pretty sure that artificial intelligence isn't going to lead to a Terminator-style apocalypse, a lot of people have a lot of questions. What is AI? What is machine learning? What's the difference between them, and can you use the terms interchangeably? To answer these questions and give some insight on how industry is building and applying these systems we are joined by Manisha Mistry, Portfolio Director Digital Culture and Collaboration at R2 Data Labs, a part of Rolls-Royce.
Manisha's book recommendations are:
- Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado-Perez
- Pattern Recognition And Machine Learning by Christopher Bishop
- Speech And Language Processing by Daniel Jurafsky and James H. Martin (Stanford University has published a free pdf of the latest draft, access it free at the link in the title!)
