Great that humans are still useful in this new age of machine learning!
Our online behaviour in this pandemic has confused AI machine learning (ML) systems according to a new MIT report. In one example, an organisation that uses ML to detect credit card fraud had to tweak their algorithm to account for a huge spike in interest in gardening equipment & power tools.
Also large swings in consumer behaviour (toilet paper one week to gym equipment the next!) exposed the brittle nature of AI algorithms and the need for human intervention.
