After a couple of false starts from the 1950s onwards, AI is finally living up to the hype.

Kortical is involved in AI projects from manufacturing to healthcare, such as working with the NHS to predict demand, and working with broadcasters to understand whether a programme needs to be re-commissioned.
- The scope of AI machines
With the current generation of AI we’re getting to the point where it can perform better than humans at certain narrow tasks.
- What an AI role involves
Part of the process of an AI project is to define what the business case is and how the AI decision is going to have an impact.

A common science fiction theme, Allan believes it’s unlikely to be an actual threat as long as we ensure intelligent solutions continue to focus on the outcomes we want.
