When we automated away the elevator operator function, who knew that all the descendants of those operators would become social media marketers, machine learning engineers, and all these other jobs that we didn’t even have a language to describe back then. Andrew Ng Read Quote
It seemed really amazing that you could write a few lines of code and have it learn to do interesting things. Andrew Ng Read Quote
None of us today know how to get computers to learn with the speed and flexibility of a child. Andrew Ng Read Quote
The way AI complements people’s work, it actually creates a lot of new jobs, a lot of demand. For example, if a automatic visual inspection technology helps spot flaws in manufacturing parts, I think that in some cases, this does create a lot more demand for people to come in to rework or to fix some of the parts that an AI has found to be flawed.

Deep-learning will transform every single industry. Healthcare and transportation will be transformed by deep-learning. I want to live in an AI-powered society. When anyone goes to see a doctor, I want AI to help that doctor provide higher quality and lower cost medical service. I want every five-year-old to have a personalised tutor. Andrew Ng Read Quote
Imagine if we can just talk to our computers and have it understand, ‘Please schedule a meeting with Bob for next week.’ Or if each child could have a personalized tutor. Or if self-driving cars could save all of us hours of driving. Andrew Ng Read Quote
Animals see a video of the world. If an animal were only to see still images, how would its vision develop? Neuroscientists have run experiments in cats in a dark environment with a strobe so it can only see still images – and those cats’ visual systems actually underdevelop. So motion is important, but what is the algorithm? Andrew Ng Read Quote
With the Google Brain project, we made the decision to build deep learning processes on top of Google’s existing infrastructure. Andrew Ng Read Quote
I think the Indian AI ecosystem is growing rapidly. A lot of Indian entrepreneurs reach out to me seeking feedback about startups and products. And some of them have very interesting business ideas. Andrew Ng Read Quote
