Artificial Intelligence

What's next?

How machine learning works and what do we have to expect from A.I. development?
There are opportunities but also risks.
In 2000 year I participated to the development of a quite big Neural Network and Expert System aimed to help doctors in EEG analysis and Epileptic Seizures identification and classification. It worked in an amazing way: we collected more than 10000 samples of EEG traces with specific features (normal samples and anomaly samples) and artifacts. We trained the huge NN and arrived to a complete report with EEG measure (energy over bands) and characterization.
However time was too early and commercial exploitation was ineffective due to marketing poor knowledge and poor vision.
Now time has come.
A.I. is everywhere, from cars to washing-machines.
And probably in weapons, also.
To better understand the state-of-the-art, I invited the Associate Professor at Padua University, Silvana Badaloni, for a public conference on A.I..
Expecting her to show us what's next.
