In this video from the GPU Technology Conference, Dan Olds from OrionX discusses the human impact of AI with Greg Schmidt from HPEThe industry buzz about artificial intelligence and deep learning typically focuses on hardware, software, frameworks,  performance, and the lofty business plans that will be enabled by this new technology. What we don’t hear a lot about is the human side of AI – what we hope it will provide for our fellow citizens and loved ones.

I had an interesting conversation with Greg Schmidt, HPE’s Apollo System Product Manager on these topics. We discussed how self-driving cars will safeguard our family members on trips, eliminating (well, almost eliminating) worry about them getting to the right place at the right time, safely. We also talked about a medical condition affecting his daughter and how an informal type of AI helped them to develop a treatment plan where there was none before. It’s the first AI discussion I’ve had in a while where we didn’t talk about accelerators, processors, AI frameworks, and all the various piece parts that go into an AI solutions – it was very refreshing. Take a look at the video below to see our unconventional discussion of AI and its potential for aiding our everyday lives.
