“It’s up to us to make it good. That’s very true for the area of machine learning.” @bhorowitz makes the case for AI's potential as a positive societal force, citing non-invasive cancer diagnosis tools as just the start.

Advice from @bhorowitz to aspiring entrepreneurs: "Don’t underestimate the experience that you don’t have. Experience does matter.” “Trust is fundamental to business leadership.” “It takes a lot of discipline to be honest consistently.”
