You might have noticed a new term, “composite AI,” floating around the cybersphere. Don’t worry–it’s not a complex new technology that you must master. In fact, while the term may be new, the core idea behind it is not. Nevertheless, it’s likely a technique that you should be thinking about incorporating in your enterprise AI processes.
Gartner helped put composite AI on the map last summer, when it published its 2020 Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies. Simply put, Composite AI refers to the “combination of different AI techniques to achieve the best result,” according to Gartner. That’s it. Simple enough, right? Read More

Journey to the center of the neuron
Every single one of your thoughts is made possible by your biological neurons. And behind many of the most useful A.I architectures is an entity inspired by them. Neurons are at the epicenter of the processing that underpins the complexity produced by intelligent systems. Curious to know more about the engine of your thoughts and about how they compare to their artificial counterparts? Let’s do it!
A.I neurons were originally inspired by our biological ones, yet they are very different. And why shouldn’t they be? There are many ways to get to the same destination and in the same way that human flight got inspired but didn’t copy part by part the way that birds fly, our artificial neurons are only partially inspired by our biological ones.
And yet, our biological neurons are way more complex than our artificial ones and hold so much rich detail and so many mysteries within. Even if we don’t need to copy the way biological neurons work, understanding what is different between both entities could give us new clues about how to move towards a more flexible form of artificial intelligence.
