Q

What is strong or generalised AI?

A

This is AI that can interact and operate a wide variety of independent and unrelated tasks.
It can learn new tasks to solve new problems, and it does this by teaching itself new strategies.
Generalised intelligence is the combination of many AI strategies that learn from experience and can perform at a human level of intelligence.

Q

Artificial Intelligence vs. Generative AI (GenAI)

A

Artificial Intelligence is an augmented intelligence that helps experts scale their capabilities while machines handle time-consuming tasks such as recognising speech, playing games, and making decisions.

Generative AI, on the other hand, is an AI technique that can generate new and unique data ranging from images and music to texts and virtual worlds.

68
Q

What are convolutions good at?

A

They are good at detecting simple structures in an image and putting those simple features together to construct more complex features.

69
Q

What are Recurrent Neural Networks?

A

Recurrent Neural Networks or RNNs are multi-layered neural networks that perform the same task for every element of a sequence, with prior outputs feeding subsequent stage inputs.

70
Q

How are Recurrent Neural Networks recurrent?

A

They are recurrent because they perform the same task for every element of a sequence, with prior outputs feeding subsequent stage inputs.

71
Q

What is the unique characteristic of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) in handling sequence data?

A

RNNs make use of information in long sequences, each layer of the network representing the observation at a certain time.

72
Q

How is input processed in a general neural network?

A
  • an input is processed through a number of layers
  • and an output is produced with an assumption that the two successive inputs are independent of each other, but that may not hold true in certain scenarios.
73
Q

Give a scenario where a recurrent neural network would work better than a general neural network

A
  • In a general neural network, output is produced with an assumption that the two successive inputs are independent of each other, but that may not hold true in certain scenarios
  • For example, when we need to consider the context in which a word has been spoken, in such scenarios, dependence on previous observations has to be considered to produce the output.
  • RNNs can make use of information in long sequences, each layer of the network representing the observation at a certain time.

115
Q

What is driving the industry focus on trustworthy AI?

A

Corporate social responsibility posture, concerns around reputational risk and a growing set of regulations.

116
Q

What are the stages in the AI lifecycle?

A
  • Scope and plan
  • Collect and organize
  • Build and test
  • Validate and deploy
  • Monitor and manage
117
Q

Why should you apply Enterprise Design Thinking principles during the scoping and planning stage of the AI lifecycle?

A

Design Thinking helps identify and define various business and technical aspects of bias/fairness, robustness, explainability etc. in the context of the use case.

118
Q

What is the ‘Scope and Plan’ stage of the AI lifecycle?

A

This stage guides the prioritisation of use cases and the development of an AI action plan.

119
Q

What is the ‘Collect and Organise’ stage of the AI lifecycle for?

A

This stage allows the data consumer to find and access relevant datasets.

120
Q

What happens during the ‘Build and Test’ stage of the AI lifecycle?

A

Data science teams explore and prepare the data, and build, train and test their AI/ML models during this stage. The activities during this stage are best undertaken as a set of agile sprints.

121
Q

What is an important activity that needs to be done during the ‘Build and Test’ stage of the AI lifecycle?

A
  • It is important that bias in data be checked at this stage even before any model building work starts.
  • This is an inner guardrail for fairness, and such guardrails can be put in place during and after the model building steps.
  • Model robustness, explainability and other aspects can be similarly accounted for and tested during this stage.
122
Q

What happens during the ‘Validate and Deploy’ stage of the AI lifecycle?

A
  • This stage involves validation of the model and deployment into production.
  • The team validates quality, robustness, fairness, etc. and generates validation reports. It is important to capture the validation results for reference and comparison.
123
Q

What happens if a model passes validation?

A

The Ops team can promote it to the production environment using an MLOps pipeline. The model is deployed there, either for online or batch invocation.

124
Q

What happens during the ‘Monitor and Manage’ stage of the AI lifecycle?

A
  • In this stage, the Ops team sets up ongoing monitoring and management of the AI/ML model in production.
  • The team configures monitors for periodic scheduled collection of metrics.
  • Quality, robustness, and fairness are monitored at frequencies dictated by business needs.
125
Q

What are the 3 pillars of the AI governance policy framework?

A
  • Accountability
    • proportionate to the risk profile of the application and the role of the entity providing, developing, or operating an AI system to control and mitigate unintended or harmful outcomes for consumers.
  • Transparency
    • in where the technology is deployed, how it is used, and why it provides certain determinations.
  • Fairness and security
    • validated by testing for bias before AI is deployed and re-tested as appropriate throughout its use, especially in automated determinations and high-risk applications.
126
Q

What do the OECD AI Principles suggest would help create a solid accountability bedrock for the AI Governance Framework?

A

Promoting a policy environment that supports an agile transition from the research and development stage to the deployment and operation stage for trustworthy AI systems.

127
Q

How can differentiating accountability mitigate the harm caused by AI?

A

It can do this by directing resources and oversight to specific applications of AI based on the severity and likelihood of potential harms arising from the end-use and user of such systems.

128
Q

What is the ideal scenario for AI in the modern world?

A

It’s not to try and develop a system that completely autonomously handles every aspect of a problem but to have a collaboration between machines doing what they do best and humans doing what they do best.

129
Q

What is likely to be the next big growth area for AI?

A

Understanding and generating natural language is likely to be the next big growth area for AI, along with vision systems for the blind.

130
Q

Why are a large number of businesses unable to leverage the capabilities of AI?

A

A large proportion of their data is locked in silos and not business-ready. There is no AI without IA.

131
Q

What does IA mean?

A

Information Architecture

132
Q

What do businesses use the AI Ladder for?

A

It is used for the successful implementation of AI

133
Q

What are the four steps that make up the AI Ladder?

A
  1. Collect: Make data simple and accessible.
    1. Collect data of every type regardless of where it resides, enabling flexibility in the face of ever-changing data sources.
  2. Organise: Create a business-ready analytics foundation.
    1. Organise all data into a trusted, business-ready foundation with built-in governance, protection, and compliance.
  3. Analyse: Build and scale AI with trust and transparency.
    1. Analyse data in smarter ways and benefit from AI models that empower organisations to gain new insights and make better, smarter decisions.
  4. Infuse: Operationalise AI throughout the business.
    1. Apply AI across the enterprise in multiple departments and within various processes—drawing on predictions, automation, and optimisation.
