In this week’s #DataTalk, we chat with Steve Shwartz, co-founder of Device42 and author of the book: “Evil Robots, Killer Computers, and Other Myths: The Truth About AI and the Future of Humanity." We learn about Steve’s new book, as he dispels myths and fears surrounding artificial intelligence. Steve also discusses A.I. trends in sports, ways data scientists can decrease bias in A.I. algorithms, and the future of self-driving vehicles.
