A new system from MIT has outperformed human intuition using its algorithms. It’s amazing, and perhaps a little frightening: an MIT computer’s algorithms outperformed human intuition in a groundbreaking new test. The findings will be presented this upcoming week at the IEEE International Conference on Data Science and Advanced Analytics. There are a number of tasks the researchers believe the computer could be helpful at. One example listed in the report is looking at statistics and predict if a student is likely to drop out of an online course. It’s just one of many examples where the machine could immediately be put to work.
