Artificial Intelligence and Its Impact on Humans

Artificial intelligence is the continued advancement of automation through technology. The first really big breakthrough in recent years that's captured the public's imagination was Deep Blue, which beat world champion Gary Kasparov back in 1997. With computer chess being viewed as a solved problem, attention moved on to new challenges like computer vision and self driving cars. Potential applications in the world of medicine mean that researchers are training AIs to detect certain conditions earlier and with greater accuracy than human doctors can.
