Modern machine learning is arguably the intermediate step between heuristics and artificial intelligence (AI). While AI will be a form of machine learning, the current generation of ideas we use will probably no longer be relevant when a breakthrough happens which allows…
After many years abroad, Juan finally had a good reason to go back home to Iloilo in the Philippines. His parents and wife are in the vibrant festival city, and staying with them is his only son Kiko. The COVID-19 pandemic has…

The incomplete understanding of human brains and how to endow computers with common sense are among AI’s most enduring challenges. New research from DeepMind London, Imperial College London and the University of Cambridge argues that common sense in humans is founded on…
AI Outside In is a continuing feature by PAIR’s writer-in-residence, David Weinberger, who offers his outsider perspective on key ideas in machine learning. His opinions are his own and do not necessarily reflect those of Google. When I was serving twenty years to…
More than 40 million people worldwide are the victim of slavery. Emerging technology, including artificial intelligence, can help combat the practice. It can reveal trends in payments and help identify victims. Despite legalised slavery being abolished in the UK in 1833 and…
The need to pursue racial justice is more urgent than ever, especially in the technology industry. The far-reaching scope and power of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) means that any gender and racial bias at the source is multiplied to the nth power…
The protests across the U.S. and around the globe in the wake of the murder of George Floyd have raised awareness about structural inequalities. Though the specific focus has been on police brutality, scholars, activists, and artists are sounding the alarm on…
