As AI gets more sophisticated the scientists who’ve developed them are at a loss on how they exactly work. We ask data scientist Andrea Jones-Rooy to explain what’s going on and what it says about the limitations of AI.

Will I Need Math For This? - GDI 4401 starts at 31:13

Math talk takes over. What type of math do you use in your regular life? Do you remember your statistics courses? All you need is a shadow and a hole. Is Tom doing it right now? Happy Birthday Roger. Did Usenet have the answers? How some cultures see the world with less numbers. Did you have to listen to the clicks? Have you used a rotary phone? Don’t cry over spilt coffee. Do you remember call notes? When was the last time you used an answering machine? Is a fax machine a zombie?

Starring Tom Merritt, Robb Dunewood, Andrea Jones-Rooy, Roger Chang, Amos, Joe.
