With artificial intelligence, we are
summoning the demon. In all those stories
where there’s the guy with the pentagram
and the holy water, it’s like, yeah, he’s sure
he can control the demon. Didn’t work out.
Elon Musk
Here to talk about…
AI 101
Can we ignore it
How others are doing it today
Some AI fun
The theory and development of computer
systems able to perform tasks that
normally require human intelligence, such
as visual perception, speech recognition,
decision-making, and translation between
languages.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a way of making a
computer, a computer-controlled robot, or a
software think intelligently, in the similar
manner the intelligent humans think.
AI is accomplished by studying how human
brain thinks, and how humans learn, decide,
and work while trying to solve a problem, and
then using the outcomes of this study as a
basis of developing intelligent software and
systems.

Artificial Intelligence Explodes: New
Deal Activity Record For AI Startups I
Investment in AI should follow an upward trajectory in 2017 and is likely to be the most popular area of investment for tech-
savvy venture capital firms. As virtually all industries catch up with the technological advances AI presents, and as they seek
to implement them one way or another into their businesses and structures, AI is set to become more than a trend –
It will become a moving feast for years and even decades to come. I

When artificial intelligence meets user experience
The Uncanny Valley
AI – NI: A delicate balance
Prosthetic Hand
Stuffed Animal
C-3PO
Corpse & Creepy human like robots
The relationship between the degree of an object's resemblance to a human being and the emotional
response to such an object.
AI – NI: A delicate balance do & don'ts
Do provide full user control to override AI decisions
Don’t be a stalker
Avoid threat to user’s self esteem & work security
Do not expose the extent of AI knowledge
Make the user, not the AI feel accomplished
Make a clear distinction between human and AI tasks
Airbnb's ‘Price Tips’, is an AI tool that “lets Airbnb hosts see exactly where they should set
the price of their property on a day-by-day basis to make it most likely to be rented”

Extracting image metadata
at scale
Netflix has a collection of nearly two million images that play very
prominent roles in helping members pick what to watch. Netflix uses
computer vision algorithms to address the challenges of focal point,
text placement and image clustering at a large scale.
I. The Netflix Tech Blog, March 2016. https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/extracting-image-metadata-at-scale-c89c60a2b9d2
Focal Point
AI to identify body positioning: close-up,
upper-body or a full body
AI that auto-selects the ‘best’, ‘most
interesting’ person
AI that detects and blurs edges for
images that don’t have a human
I. The Netflix Tech Blog, March 2016. https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/extracting-image-metadata-at-scale-c89c60a2b9d2
Text Placement
AI to determine what would be the best
place to put text on an image, the ‘New
Episode’ badge and placement of
subtitles in a video frame
I. The Netflix Tech Blog, March 2016. https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/extracting-image-metadata-at-scale-c89c60a2b9d2
Image Clustering
Netflix creates flavors of artwork for
different title to learn which image is
more effective globally.
AI determines a similarity index to group
images together by:
1. Histogram based distance
2. Structural similarity
3. Feature matching
4. Color similarity
Eye opener Reference Original Photoshop Facebook
A Machine learning system that tries to
fool itself into thinking its creations are
real.
One part of the system learns to
recognize, faces, and another part of the
system repeatedly creates images that,
based on feedback from the recognition
part, gradually grow in realism.
