Making AI more understandable

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Although artificial intelligence (AI) has already made its way into our daily lives, one of the biggest problems with this emerging
technology is that few people really understand how it works or how it could affect their future
To help businesses and consumers alike better understand AI, Samsung has launched a new initiative called FAIR Future with the aim of
ethical approach to implementing AI.What were some of the most interesting findings from your recent FAIR Future report?First, we found

should interact with each other
When you consider that those who create neural networks are often unsure about how they work, how do we ensure the human stays central and
in control? The critical element is to be clear on how we decide on the balance of an AI taking the lead vs
complimenting a human decision or interaction.For example, are we as a society comfortable with literally handing over the keys for our cars
