Bright intelligence for everyday life
Symbols of the transformation to expect in our daily lives, embodiment of science-fiction dreams, speaking machines are only one of the facets of AI's penetration into increasingly varied domains. New learning methods, advice for playing (including on the stock market), translations, decision support, diagnostics, forecasts... New possibilities are available to humans to continuously increase their skills. What future for this essential relationship between interconnected humans and machines?

AI and Big Data: pros and cons | Tangente
Artificial intelligence and Big Data have taken center stage in scientific research in recent years. The two fields are bound to interact, for better—and sometimes for worse, unless we are careful.
Misuse and security | Tangente
While AI makes large-scale data collection and analysis easier, it also enables greater surveillance of the population. Every coin has two sides...
AI for training | Tangente
The training landscape now includes a wide range of stakeholders. AI can be used in many ways, both in schools and in the workplace.
Machine translation: a challenge for the future
Born out of linguistic thinking in the immediate postwar period, machine translation later turned to purely statistical methods. More recently, a new approach has emerged, based on neural networks that mimic how the brain works.
Machine learning and neural networks
Neural networks are computational concepts born of the desire to imitate and model the human brain. They now underpin deep learning. With the emergence of new algorithms, these abstract ideas now lie at the heart of the digital revolution.
AI: Finance and markets love it!
The financial sector is not among the leaders in AI. Yet one of the fundamental mechanisms of neural networks—stochastic gradient descent—has a counterpart in financial markets. Banks are therefore beginning to adopt algorithmic methods for numerical computation.
