Artificial Intelligence

That grand, spacious (and long ignored) branch of computing that I never really found a reason to graduate in (big mistake I only realized 30 years later) and that, these days, deals not just with thinking machines (so-called “hard” AI), but mostly with enhancing the usefulness of machines in general by exploring mechanisms to express and manipulate harvested knowledge.

Or just pretty pictures and sophisticated text generation. Either way, it seems we’re currently between AI winters, with a lot of investment in GPU hardware that still needs to prove itself consistently, measurably useful in real life use cases.

Note: Items pertaining to , , and are now in their own section, as this page was getting too crowded. I will be moving other sections out of here as well as they grow over time, so that this page can focus on the more general aspects of AI and ML.
