Ted Dunning talks AI & Analytics in Production

While there are only a few companies using AI in production, it’s certainly where the future lies. In this wide-ranging episode of The New Stack Makers, TC Currie talks with Ted Dunning, Chief Application Architect at MapR and author, along with Ellen Friedman of the new book AI & Analytics in Production. We all have an image in the back of our minds of computers taking over the world, but the truth for the short-term, said Dunning is that some of the best value for artificial intelligence (AI) is going to be some of the most boring stuff.  AI, at least in the beginning, will replace boring repetitive tasks and mine massive amounts of data in ways not previously imaginable.
