Nope. Despite the highly technical nature of deep learning, some 600 people had shown up for the sold-out AI event.
The turnout was a stark sign of the rising popularity of deep learning, an approach to AI that tries to mimic the activity of the brain in so-called neural networks. In just the last couple of years, deep learning software from giants like Google, Facebook, and China’s Baidu as well as a raft of startups, has led to big advances in image and speech recognition, medical diagnostics, stock trading, and more. “There’s quite a bit of excitement in this area,” panel moderator Steve Jurvetson, a partner with the venture firm DFJ, said with uncustomary understatement."
