AI expert and insitro CEO Daphne Koller shares her insights about developing the vision and strategy needed to optimize your enterprise AI deployments.
Researchers built a model that behaves like a brain. Without being trained on neural data, the model produced a peculiar signal — one that was later discovered in actual brain activity.
AI will shape the future of work, but human leadership will decide whether that future is good — and happiness should be the touchstone.
