and perfecting our machine-like assembly techniques, others have been watching closely and assembling their own machines. We’ve designed ourselves right into an environment ripe for automation.” All of the workflow tools we’ve built make our jobs automatable. These quotes are from a fairly mandatory article, ‘Design Machines’ by Travis Gertz. But the best thing about the article is that he also suggests a solution to the problem:
of people to do non- routine, non-repetitive tasks. Teaching innovation and creativity could be one way to get there.” Andrew Ng is a major player in Google and Baidu’s AI. He has major concerns about the effects of automation and AI on employment. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/05/13/andrew-ng_n_7267682.html
Watson’s capabilities, using Node/Java and a range of RESTFUL APIs. They just brought a whole range into general availability. They want to be the ubiquitous platform of AI, as Windows was to the home PC and Android to mobile. http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/ibmwatson/watson-cloud.html

from 26% to 8%. That’s from one word in 4 to one word in 12. This was a few months ago - a recent update is even better. Baidu, ‘China’s Google’, says theirs is 6% - one word in 17.
Not all options are available, but I can train it to use them. I used Chicago because an unfortunate drawback is that they don’t always recognise British English.
