In our SERIES FINALE of Crash Course Computer Science we take a look towards the future! In the past 70 years electronic computing has fundamentally changed how we live our lives, and we believe it’s just getting started. From ubiquitous computing, artificial intelligence, and self-driving cars to brain computer interfaces, wearable computers, and maybe even the singularity there is so much amazing potential on the horizon. Of course there is also room for peril with the rise of artificial intelligence and more immediate displacement of much of the workforce through automation. It’s tough to predict how it will all shake out, but it’s our hope that this series has inspired you to take part in shaping that future. Thank you so much for watching.

Today we’re going to talk about how computers understand speech and speak themselves. As computers play an increasing role in our daily lives there has been an growing demand for voice user interfaces, but speech is also terribly complicated. Vocabularies are diverse, sentence structures can often dictate the meaning of certain words, and computers also have to deal with accents, mispronunciations, and many common linguistic faux pas. The field of Natural Language Processing, or NLP, attempts to solve these problems, with a number of techniques we’ll discuss today. And even though our virtual assistants like Siri, Alexa, Google Home, Bixby, and Cortana have come a long way from the first speech processing and synthesis models, there is still much room for improvement.

Deep learning is a revolutionary technique for discovering patterns from data. We’ll see how this technology works and what it offers us for computer graphics. Attendees learn how to use these tools to power their own creative and practical investigations and applications.

Check out my collab with “Above the Noise” about Deepfakes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro8b69VeL9U Today, we’re going to talk about five common types of algorithmic bias we should pay attention to: data that reflects existing biases, unbalanced classes in training data, data that doesn’t capture the right value, data that is amplified by feedback loops, and malicious data. Now bias itself isn’t necessarily a terrible thing, our brains often use it to take shortcuts by finding patterns, but bias can become a problem if we don’t acknowledge exceptions to patterns or if we allow it to discriminate.

For more information go to https://curiositystream.com/crashcourse So far in this series, we’ve mostly focused on how AI can interpret images, but one of the most common ways we interact with computers is through language – we type questions into search engines, use our smart assistants like Siri and Alexa to set alarms and check the weather, and communicate across language barriers with the help of Google Translate. Today, we’re going to talk about Natural Language Processing, or NLP, show you some strategies computers can use to better understand language like distributional semantics, and then we’ll introduce you to a type of neural network called a Recurrent Neural Network or RNN to build sentences.

Artificial intelligence is everywhere and it’s already making a huge impact on our lives. It’s autocompleting texts on our cellphones, telling us which videos to watch on YouTube, beating us at video games, recognizing us in photos, ordering products in stores, driving cars, scheduling appointments, you get the idea. Today we’re going to explain what AI can (and can’t) do right now and explain how we got to where we are today.

Today, in our final episode of Crash Course AI, we’re going to look towards the future. We’ve spent much of this series explaining how and why we don’t have the Artificial General Intelligence (or AGI) that we see in the movies like Bladerunner, Her, or Ex Machina. Siri frequently doesn’t understand us, we probably shouldn’t sleep in our self-driving cars, and those recommended videos on YouTube and Netflix often aren’t what we really want to watch next. So let’s talk about what we do know, how we got here, and where we think it’s all headed. Thanks so much everyone for watching!

So we’ve talked a lot in this series about how computers fetch and display data, but how do they make decisions on this data? From spam filters and self-driving cars, to cutting edge medical diagnosis and real-time language translation, there has been an increasing need for our computers to learn from data and apply that knowledge to make predictions and decisions. This is the heart of machine learning which sits inside the more ambitious goal of artificial intelligence. We may be a long way from self-aware computers that think just like us, but with advancements in deep learning and artificial neural networks our computers are becoming more powerful than ever.

Today Hank explores artificial intelligence, including weak AI and strong AI, and the various ways that thinkers have tried to define strong AI including the Turing Test, and John Searle’s response to the Turing Test, the Chinese Room. Hank also tries to figure out one of the more personally daunting questions yet: is his brother John a robot?
