Published: Access to quality healthcare is a basic human right. Intelligent systems can also facilitate better communication and collaboration between healthcare teams. This could be particularly important in areas that lack access to sufficient healthcare facilities, or during emergencies, such as natural disasters and pandemics.

This includes online dictionaries and thesauruses, how-to videos, and access to teacher assistance outside of class. You let them know what’s going on in the classroom, welcome their questions and visits, communicate often via email or blogs when it’s convenient for them. Problem solving is integral to learning.

Why is there one person standing in front of the room doing all of the talking with students sitting passively at uncomfortable desks when we know that active, social, and experiential learning promotes interest, engagement, and deep learning? Our world is now marked by information abundance, surplus, and access.

At the time, there was some fiddliness to these functions, and to making their output look good—though in later years what we learned from this was used to tune up the general look of built-in graphics in the Wolfram Language. But there’s a standard way to achieve the appearance of gray, by changing the local density of black and white.

And in fact the big breakthrough in “deep learning” that occurred around 2011 was associated with the discovery that in some sense it can be easier to do (at least approximate) minimization when there are lots of weights involved than when there are fairly few. Nontrivial mathematics is one big example.

Given a defined “goal”, an AI can automatically work towards achieving it. Most of our existing intuition about “machinery” and “automation” comes from a kind of “clockwork” view of engineering—in which we specifically build systems component by component to achieve objectives we want. And that’s where we humans come in.
