Will AI surpass human intelligence ? | Hesham Eraqi | TEDxFrenchUniversityinEgypt

TEDx Talks

Deep learning is a technology that attempts to mimic the activity in layers of neurons in the brain neocortex, the wrinkly 80 percent of the brain where thinking occurs. The advent of this technology has moved artificial intelligence (AI) well beyond science fiction into many successful and practical applications. Artificial intelligence is finally getting smart. Machines getting the better of humans is no longer a surprise. Can deep learning revolutionize Artificial Intelligence? After human evolution stages from Hunter to Agrarian to Industrial to Services oriented society, does AI brings the next revolution? There is going to be a Tectonic shift in everything we do, mostly driven by AI. Does it mean that humans will be jobless and machines will take over like a scene out of a Hollywood science fiction movie?
