“In the past jobs were about muscles, now they’re about brains, but in future they’ll be about the heart.” - Minouche Shafik (director of the London School of Economics)

Term “Machine Learning” invented (1959) What is Machine Learning?

 Arthur Samuel in 1959 wrote, "Machine Learning is the field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed.

“I believe over the next decade computing will become even more ubiquitous and intelligence will become ambient. This will be made possible by an ever-growing network of connected devices, incredible computing capacity from the cloud, insights from big data, and intelligence from machine learning.“ Satya Nadella Everyone should have access to the benefits of AI, including the tools it takes to create and transform your work. We want to remove barriers and help every developer on the planet to create the next generation of AI-powered products.

We believe that you should choose the technology and platforms that you prefer and we've designed our comprehensive stack to reflect this. AI Platform • Azure services

Infusing AI • Adding AI in all products

• Deploy in minutes • Configure/Customize • Implement with Partners The most critical next step in our pursuit of A.I. is to agree on an ethical and empathic framework for its design.

Illegal Acts, Legal Ethical Morally Minimum Maximum problematic Our approach The Partnership on AI to Benefit People and Society

The Partnership on AI to Benefit People and Society was established to study and formulate best practices on AI technologies, to advance the public’s understanding of AI, and to serve as an open platform for discussion and engagement about AI and its influences on people and society. AI must be designed to assist • Machines that work alongside humans should do "dangerous work like mining" but still humanity "respect human autonomy."

• "We want not just intelligent machines but intelligible machines, People should have an AI must be transparent understanding of how the technology sees and analyzes the world."

AI must maximize efficiencies without • "We need broader, deeper, and more diverse engagement of populations in the design of destroying the dignity of people these systems. The tech industry should not dictate the values and virtues of this future."

AI must be designed for intelligent • “Sophisticated protections that secure personal and group information." privacy

AI must have algorithmic • “Humans can undo unintended harm." accountability

• "Proper and representative research" should be used to make sure AI doesn't discriminate AI must guard against bias against people (like humans do). aka.ms/uber-selfies aka.ms/seahawks aka.ms/seeing-ai
