MIT-STS-AI-snakeoil.pdf Quote: "AI is already at or beyond human accuracy in all the tasks on this slide and is continuing to get better rapidly. The fundamental reason for progress is that there is no uncertainty or ambiguity in these tasks — given two images of faces, there’s ground truth about whether or not they represent the same person. So, given enough data and compute, AI will learn the patterns that distinguish one face from another." (categories: aialgorithmalgorithmsmachinelearning )
