Transcript: Much of the time when artificial intelligence makes the news, when there's a watershed event, it's often related to games. We know the story of 1997, how Garry Kasparov the reigning chess champion in the world was defeated by Deep Blue, Ken Jennings was defeated in Jeopardy by Watson, and Lee Sedol was defeated in the game Go by AlphaGo. We even see now that artificial intelligence beats the best poker players in the world, which you would think would is a uniquely human game. The reason that games are so easy for AIs to master is because they’re confined universes with very defined goals and with a set of rules. That's why when people ask me, “How do I spot an area to apply artificial intelligence in my business?” I suggest they look at the elements of your business as if they were a game. What aspects of your day-to-day business are a constrained playing field with rules and outcomes that are easy to measure? You could think, for instance, of HR. You have a pool of employees that get good performance marks, a pool that get poor ones, and a range of applicants. This looks like a game to an AI, and it’s these sorts of things that it’s easy to apply the technology to. So that's the takeaway - look for things that look like games and you'll notice them all around you. http://bit.ly/2Va3PU2 gigaom May 08, 2019 at 05:15PM
