We are currently within one of the biggest changes in human history by the revolution of many technologies including artificial intelligence. The machine learning process requires huge computing power.
Thanks to new technology, the Graphics processing unit (GPU) and Tensor processing unit (TPU) outclass the conventional Central processing unit (CPU) In terms of matrix multiplication which essential for machine learning.
Also the widespread availability of datacenter which enables the cloud platform which provides many services such as cloud computing, huge data storage, machine learning engine and much more. Making the computing-intensive task and collecting a huge amount of data is no longer beyond our reach.
The estimation technique that once considered impractical and abandoned due to its computing power-intensive requirement. The neural network technique was resurrected and now becomes one of the most powerful function approximators humans ever known.
Because of the availability of deep neural network techniques, data is now becoming more important than ever.
GPU, TPU, data center and deep neural networks. With all four powers combined, give birth to the beginning of the age of automation. And force almost everyone to become a life-long learning human being in order to survive.
