Keynote http://commodity.ai

How can AI be turned into a commodity – a cheap, easily available product, that is used by everyone? Will it even be possible to turn AI into a commodity at all? Dr. Pieter Buteneers (Robovision) adresses these questions in this keynote from ML Conference 2018 in Berlin.

As a consumer, commodities are great. Companies will compete for the lowest possible price because every product is almost the same. For the companies on the other hand, this is a cut throat business. Margins are low and differentiating yourself is nearly impossible. Building materials, vegetables, cars and even smartphones have become (near) commodities. But will AI ever become a commodity? And what are the hurdles we need to overcome to (not) get there?
