“Machine Learning: Living in the Age of AI,” examines the extraordinary ways in which people are interacting with AI today. Hobbyists and teenagers are now developing tech powered by machine learning and WIRED shows the impacts of AI on schoolchildren and farmers and senior citizens, as well as looking at the implications that rapidly accelerating technology can have. The film was directed by filmmaker Chris Cannucciari, produced by WIRED, and supported by McCann Worldgroup.

    When I was little we were memorizing multiplication and division tables. These kids are learning about neural networks.

    Cool. But can we talk about the old guy's sweet flight simulator setup?
  • @xela828282
    The farmer words at the end of the video summaries it perfectly: You never know what the future holds but you have to be ready for it.

    5 minutes in and I can say I'm not frightened of AI I'm frightened of the motives of those who control it! We should all have our own personal decentralised AI.

    I want to become like that old man when I grow up.

    on one hand: This whole video feels like "Dr. Frankenstein asks public what they think of his monster" but on the other hand: This is pretty spectacular.

    People can be for or against this technology but one thing is guaranteed.-- It's here and it's here to stay.

    “When you don’t know what you can’t see, you almost don’t know you need help.” That is fairly profound.

    I am 41, I wish I had had the education those kids were getting. The string activity was awesome to understand how connected we are
  • If the old guy is my grandfather, I think we would be talking about technologies all day long. Nice video!
  • @charlie_oc774
    At the start i thought he was gonna say “play despacito” 😂
  • @aleahl4765
    I wish this video was around when I was doing a school presentation on this 😅 Thank you Wired!

    It is not a question if AI is good or bad. It is a question of using it in a good or bad way. Another thing is many people resist change of any type. Resisting change means that those people will be totally unable to cope when the change becomes everywhere.

    Technology looks beautiful in a documentary, when you try to learn it's a job

    Reminds me of what I was doing with the TI-86 back in 2001. I was writing a graphing calculator program that ran completely on if then statements and get key feature. Got so big I had to overclock my graphing calculator for it to keep up. It was for electronics engineering. Would take the number of components in a circuit let you input all of the data you knew and would turn around and calculate all of the voltage current resistance and phase angle of all components up to ten parallel series or series parallel

    When I was 7, we owned a VCR and used one in class, that was 14 years ago im 21, now im streaming 4K video to my VR headset, needless to say, we've made exponential leaps forward.

    "I could spend all day in here", O RLY, have you seen Black Mirror episode San Junipero?
  • If you really dig in deeper to find A.I's and machine learning reaching capabilities then they're really greater than us but always in specific sense. They doesn't posses capability to be more general like human but they outperform humans by incredible power in given specific tasks.
  • I LOVE that old guy at the beginning of this documentary! So nice to see people that destroy stereotypes!
