Abstract

In this chapter, Smith and Pourdehnad discuss two digital technologies, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Crowdsourcing, that are not considered fundamental to current applications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. These authors believe that these technologies are well worth consideration for some industries or applications as explained in this chapter. AI has become a practical reality in recent years through new tangible innovations such as the advent of self-driving cars, and some very human-like robots, and also as a result of improved machine learning experience. As familiarity with machine learning has grown, so have AI applications. AI is discussed in the first section together with Machine Learning; Crowdsourcing is discussed at length in the second main section.
