2019 is also finishing with great achievements in AI field. Thanks to the extended report from 'artificial intelligence index' which I highlighted more specific ones (Of cource is just my choise only):
👉 AI Research went crazy. Between 1998 and 2018, there’s been a 300% increase in the publication of peer-reviewed papers on AI.
👉 Attendance at conferences went crazy too, for eg. NeurIPS, got some 13,500 attendees this year, up 800% from 2012.
👉 Education too bumped up, a lot of folks took up MSc / PhD with something in Machine Learning
👉 USA still leads in AI, no matter what other countries say
👉 AI algorithms are becoming cheaper and mainstream
