Artificial Intelligence

People everywhere are talking about artificial intelligence like it’s going to revolutionize the world – seemingly for the better. While I may not be an expert on this topic, I think a re-branding is in order. Let’s face it – the term ‘artificial’ does not have a great connotation. After all, does anyone really like artificial flavoring, coloring and/or sweeteners in their food? Of course not! Since people are already using the shortened term ‘AI’, perhaps we could change ‘artificial’ to ‘algorithmic’, so as to keep the acronym the same.  Algorithmic Intelligence (AI) – that has a much nicer ring to it. It’s got pizzazz and it’s arguably more accurate!!
