RE: The Top 5 Most Disruptive Technologies of the Next Decade (Part 2)

in #technology7 years ago

Great post! AI has to be number 1 for me. Simply because it applies to everything! Drones learning where and how to fly, self-driving cars getting better at driving etc.

For me, satellite data paired with AI has to be in a top 10.
Don't want to come across as self promoting, but I literally just published my article on 3 Amazing & Disruptive things we can now do with Satellites #1, so found it relevant to share.

Not sure if you are familiar with what we are now starting to do with satellite imagery and machine learning but it is pretty huge. As we retrieve a new image of every inch of our planet, every day, and are able to use image recognition and machine learning algorithms to extract different information, that is then paired with secondary data to produce predictive models and other applications.

Curious as to what you think of it yourself.

Sort:  

Yeah, AI is really a BIG one and if/when quantum computers become reality, they are really going to put AI into steroid mode. hah!

It's the first time I'm hearing about satellite data being paired with AI. That's so cool! I can only imagine what AI will be able to do with so many images that are taken daily with the satellites. Also, thank you for linking your post here. There is so much good content right now that it is easy to miss a lot of awesome posts like that. I really learned a lot from your post and was wowed!

I think that what we are able to do now with satellites is going to be disruptive on its own when this tech will be used globally. Think about the money everyone will be saving and even the danger to life that we can avoid beforehand let alone have it be in risk in the first place. Good god, so much great stuff happening :D
