There is something different about the current moment in artificial intelligence. New capabilities are emerging rapidly due to advances in computing, algorithmic development, and access to vast amounts of data. The change feels real.
United Airlines has suffered a recent spate of flight incidents. They range from a tire falling off an airplane on takeoff from San Francisco International, an engine fire on a flight from Houston InterContinental to Fort Myers, an airplane sliding off the runway at Houston Intercontinental and a hydraulic system failure on a flight from San Francisco International to Mexico City. To throw even more gasoline on the fire, this weekend an external panel mysteriously disappeared off a United flight. In all incidences, there were no fatalities or injuries.
Can artificial intelligence and other types of data analytics pick a Final Four in this year’s NCAA basketball tournament? Given all the computing power available these days and the wealth of data available, picking winners should be a no brainer. Add in the power of artificial intelligence and the results should be a foregone conclusion.
Two landmark events happened on Capitol Hill in August 2022: The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was passed, and the CHIPS and Science Act signed. Both acts hold promise to increase supply chain resilience and reduce dependence on China. Both seek to use federal incentives like tax credits and subsidies to strengthen domestic production in the semiconductor and clean-energy sectors.
The growth of artificial intelligence and its wholehearted embrace by business higher education has surprised even those who have long studied it. Count among them Professor Tinglong Dai, who teaches a first-of-its-kind MBA course at the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School called Data Science: Artificial Intelligence.
