What are the main commercial opportunities in Artifical Intelligence (AI)? Andrew Ng is a figure in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning. He is a computer scientist, entrepreneur, and educator known for his significant contributions to the development and popularization of machine learning technologies. In a lecture at Stanford University he explains the types of AI tools available, where Supervised learning and Generative AS are the main application areas:
In supervised learning, the AI model is trained on labeled data, where the inputs (such as user messages or queries) are paired with corresponding outputs (desired responses or actions). The model learns to map inputs to outputs based on the patterns present in the training data. Examples are analysis of online advertising, fuel optimaliaation and visual inspection av desrcibed in the slide below:
Generative AI refers to a class of artificial intelligence systems that are capable of creating new data or content that is similar to the input it was trained on. Generative AI can be applied to various tasks, such as generating images, text, music, or even videos. Example of how the texts are generated are described in the slide below:
