Deep Learning has pushed the field of AI forward recently, producing incredible results in areas like speech and image recognition. Where most machine learning methodologies try to model the world, deep learning attempts to model the human brain in order to create and maintain its own representations of the world.

While some may be able to coast into office with the promise of bringing jobs back from oversees, they fail to realize that there may be no jobs to bring back. Automation is set to replace 5 million human jobs by 2020, with poorer countries being impacted significantly more than developed nations.

"The actual path of a raindrop as it goes down the valley is unpredictable, but the general direction is inevitable," says digital visionary Kevin Kelly -- and technology is much the same, driven by patterns that are surprising but inevitable. Over the next 20 years, he says, our penchant for making things smarter and smarter will have a profound impact on nearly everything we do. Kelly explores three trends in AI we need to understand in order to embrace it and steer its development. "The most popular AI product 20 years from now that everyone uses has not been invented yet," Kelly says. "That means that you're not late."

A theory posits that the all of our thoughts are a function of a basic algorithm, N=2^i–1. This development may be huge for AI, since artificial neural networks operate much like the brain, applying this formula may be the key to true intelligence.

Few would argue that AI has progressed faster than expected, with self-driving cars and significant advances in machine learning, deep learning and reinforcement learning. In some cases the practical applications clearly transcend human capabilities and competences. We don’t need to see ‘intelligence’ at the centre of this solar system. The Copernican move is to remove this term and replace it with competences and look to problems that can be solved.
