What is Machine Intelligence?

The term Artificial Intelligence (AI) is very prominent in mainstream media, causing the initials to often be used without full comprehension of the meaning.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

We believe technology should and can solve big, world-vexing problems. We tackle challenges with significant stakes whose solutions create differences we can see in people’s lives.
