Intelligent machines powered by AI computers that can learn, reason, and interact with people are no longer science fiction. Today, a self-driving car empowered by AI can meander through a country road at night and find its way. An AI-powered robot can acquire motor skills through trial and error. This is truly an outstanding time. The era of AI has begun.
