So how has this change come about? Well partly it is due to the Big Data revolution
itself. The glut of data has led to intensified research into ways it can be processed,
analysed and acted upon. Machines being far better suited to humans than this work,
the focus was on training machines to do this in as “smart” a way as is possible.
This increased interest in research in the field – in academia, industry and among the
open source community which sits in the middle – has led to breakthroughs and
advances that are showing their potential to generate tremendous change. From
healthcare to self-driving cars to predicting the outcome of legal cases, no one is
laughing now!
