Musings about AI

Am I behind?

Recently in an AI roundtable at the Polytechnic I work at… two of the attendees are just nicely back from a conference about AI in post secondary. I was really interested in hearing what other schools were doing because, naturally, I thought they'd be doing really weird and wonderful things. Well, not so much. As it turn out, our efforts, which I thought were quite rudimentary, are actually cutting edge. Makes you think… there's lots of excitement, noise and smoke out there. But, getting people to absorb ideas, try new things, fail and try again, isn't trivial and it takes time. Long story short - you haven't missed the AI bus.
