You've tackled the Why, Who, Where and When, but not the What of AI (or IA). The term is banded about a lot at the moment but I wondered if you had any particular scope in mind. Amazon's 'Customers who bought this item also bought ....' was cited as an example of AI in a recent radio broadcast, but your article focuses on jobs that can be replaced by AI. Thank you for including my counter-argument. Googling suggests to me that the world is split 50/50 between your view and mine, so a good issue for Probably42 to cut its teeth on. less

I suspect there is a lot of misuse of the term AI among the media and I don't believe the Amazon example of 'Customers who bought this........' is actually AI. rather than address this in a comment response I think it might be worth writing it as a separate document. I'll add a link when I've done it. Tony

It's very good and there's nothing to add to Geoff's comments. The navigation is easy and it follows a clear pattern and is logical. So all in all, the whole thing is a success!

Still worth reading this but there is now a fuller document prepared as a submission to the House of Lords Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence. Just scan the documents in the Proposals section to view it.
