Future Shock?
The World Economic Forum (WEF) has recently launched its report on the future of global jobs. Here’s what you need to know. Already having drastically changed how we look at supply chains and labour markets, the economic downturn induced by the COVID-19 pandemic (especially during its initial months) is set to have long-standing repercussions in […]
Datacentres on a Chip?
NVIDIA is revolutionising the way we look at datacentres – here’s how One of the world’s leading firms in terms of chip-based processors is US-based NVIDIA, having shipped over a billion graphics processing units (GPUs) till date. Its new-age Ampere GPUs are also being regarded as the ‘fastest ramp in [NVIDIA] history.’ Hence it should […]
AI, ASAP
This is not a drill. India needs to embrace AI now – and here’s why An elementary knowledge of economics will tell you the world’s most used production or growth functions hold three things primary: a factor for capital, one for labour and one for technological advancement. Conventional historical evidence will show the importance of […]
Soft Skills for Survival
Everyone is anticipating that machines would take over; but staying human might still be the in thing! Machine Learning, algorithms, data-based models, Artificial Intelligence……no doubt the world is inexorably moving towards a scenario where automation would govern and run almost all areas of functional operations. Businesses thrive in a predictable and anticipated environment because that […]
Less-than-One-Shot no more a Long Shot
Ground-breaking new AI technology set to completely revolutionise the way models are trained It is rather rare in the current landscape to find a viable advancement in artificial intelligence that is not based, at least in part, on machine learning. However, a recent research paper released by the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada may […]
Better Together: How Humans and AI Interact
COVID-19 upended a lot of things, and among those were artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms which were supposed to forecast the future. As it was a once in a century Black Swan event, the algos did not have past data to crunch to come up with predictions. It was then that humans and AI worked together […]
A Misplaced Notion
Study reveals that common perception about AI are mostly confused and incorrect – adding to social complexities around the technology Artificial Intelligence (AI) is still a grey area, as much for the industry as for society in general. While issues regarding privacy and ethics have been in news, other more subtle yet impactful areas have […]
A Phoenix named Demand
Data Science and Technology leading the Indian job market upturn The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic had, in its initial phases, disastrous consequences for the Indian economy – GDP growth rates had become negative (the worst contraction in decades), unemployment levels were reaching record highs and further investment prospects looked rather bleak with several thousands […]
Skill Gap Plagues AI Industry
AI adoption picks up in COVID-19, but skill gaps create low-code opportunities Survey after survey are pointing out the increasing enterprise adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning (ML); 57% of companies say they currently are using or are experimenting with the technology. The latest survey by 451 Research, now a part of S&P […]
Algorithmic Hygiene → Trustworthy AI
Mitigation of biases crucial to AI longevity Unbeknownst to most of us, the myriad ways in which artificial intelligence has already seeped into our lives may come as a major surprise to many. The mass-scale digitisation of data along with the host of emerging technologies which use them has led to a major transformation in […]
