AI: Expert Systems Pioneer Meeting, day 2 session 8: Artificial intelligence and machine learning in the 1990s

This transcript from Day 2, Session 8 of the AI: Expert Systems Pioneer meeting, the last in the series, covers how the early developments in the AI and expert systems industry relate to today’s AI-based systems and what has changed since the late 1990s to make them possible. The participants explain that mainly today’s systems are hybrids that combine a variety of expert systems and AI technologies, such as in self-driving cars, which combine machine learning and rule-based systems, among other technologies. The participants also discuss the advances in computational power, sample sets, storage, and connectivity that have enabled many of today’s AI-based systems, such as language translation and unsupervised learning. Lastly, the discussion covers what would be necessary to make the next leap in AI-based systems: symbolic AI problem solving.
