Graphics has lately made a great shift towards machine learning, which itself is about understanding data.

When you apply computer science and machine learning to areas that haven't had any innovation in 50 years, you can make rapid advances that seem really incredible.

There's definitely a huge opportunity for businesses to transform their operations and decision making by using data.

Every part of your business will change based on what I consider predictive analytics of the future.

Evolving technologies that allow economists to gather new types of data and to manipulate millions of data points are just one factor among several that are likely to transform the field in coming years.

My mission is to bring the power of big data insights and analytics to every company.

Ultimately, I hypothesize that technology will one day be able to recreate a realistic representation of us as a result of the plethora of content we're creating converging with other advances in machine learning, robotics and large-scale data mining.

Most executives, many scientists, and almost all business school graduates believe that if you analyze data, this will give you new ideas. Unfortunately, this belief is totally wrong. The mind can only see what it is prepared to see.

In fact what I would like to see is thousands of computer scientists let loose to do whatever they want. That's what really advances the field.

We're rapidly entering a world where everything can be monitored and measured. But the big problem is going to be the ability of humans to use, analyze and make sense of the data.
