… enough dimensions of information have been added to the AI model.
Higher-level animal brains build up an understanding over decades, and the brain is designed to be very efficient because it relies upon heuristics and does not calculate every possibility. This is easily observed by merely asking Alexa a non-standard question, and finding it does not know how to react.
As a person who has run ML algorithms for forecasting, many technologies overestimating by calling them “AI.” In reality, the only work in an automated way for a short period until human intervention is required.

… generations to get there. How “smart” is this insect?

… appear on SAP employees with startling speed. People with no background in forecasting or statistics and from utterly unrelated backgrounds ranging from CRM to Hybris to Fiori now have machine learning attached to their titles on LinkedIn.
Here is one example…
Digital transformation lead at SAP (Hybris, S/4Hana, Logistics, Machine learning)
What an exciting combination of skills!…..ML has nothing to do with Hybris or S/4HANA or logistics. ML is now just something to add to the new sexy term.
SAP has a video (that is now taken down) that categorized an ML approach, but the approach …

… M4 Forecasting Competition is based on lab-type data. These are data sets that are of far higher quality than is generally found within companies. The problem is that the better the data, the more advanced methods will tease out insights.
Upon reviewing the data sets from the M4 competition, it was immediately apparent that the M4 competition does not apply to any of the clients I have ever had. For years we have heard about how the real “action” in AI is in a mathematics branch called deep learning. So what is the evidence that deep learning is …
