Teaching Machines to Smell with Theta Diagnostics CTO Kordel France
Out of all five human senses, our ability to smell is considered to be the most strongly linked to memory, learning, and emotion, and is arguably the most elusive. Existing AI development has largely been focused on more concrete senses like sight and hearing. But until we’ve incorporated all five senses into an artificial being, it’s unlikely we’ll ever be able to achieve human-level intelligence. That is why today’s guest, Kordel France, has chosen to take on the complex and challenging task of developing machines’ ability to smell.
