In the near term, world militaries are considering autonomous-weapon systems that can choose and eliminate targets. ” “…humans, limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete and would be superseded by AI. ” (Photo: Getty Images)

“I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence. First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent. That should be positive if we manage it well. A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern. I agree with Elon Musk and some others on this and don’t understand why some people are not concerned. ” (Photo: Getty Images)

+ Canadian Grocer Global Consumer Goods Company Business Challenge A large supermarket chain needed a way to develop planograms without needing to build and maintain dark stores. Also needed a way to determine the sales impact to sales of planogram changes. Outcomes • POC that locally supports the end-to-end scenario of loading, modifying, and approving a planogram. • Designed as a starting point for further customization with data-driven UIs and eventual integration with traditional Planogram software through interop services.
