Abstract

Nowadays, artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are being designed, exploited and integrated into a wide variety of software or systems for different and heterogenous application domains. AI is definitively and progressively emerging as transversal and powerful technological paradigm, due to its ability not only to deal with big data and information, but especially because it produces, manages and exploits knowledge. Researchers and scientists are starting to explore, from several perspectives, the different and synergetic ways AI will transform heterogenous business models and every segment of all industries.

Just as electricity transformed almost everything 100 years ago, today I actually have a hard time thinking of an industry that I don’t think AI will transform in the next several years. —Andrew Ng
