Why The Algorithm Might Soon Be The Only Game in Town

Back


This talk argues that the years ahead will usher in the era of the algorithm, a notion that might prove just as disruptive as the revolution in the physical sciences was in the last century. The talk will also argue why algorithms are even more powerful than customarily believed but why they will not unleash their true potential until they become full-fledged scientific tools and not just problem-solvers.

Learn how to speak. It amazes me how terrible some apparently clever people are at communicating. That is the trouble with cultural cloistering...you don't ever truly learn how to speak the language properly. How to enunciate words properly. I think the English language will soon be unrecognisable to native English speakers in many parts of the world. It will have 'evolved' into some Creole form which bears little resemblance to the actual language called English.
