This is wonderful, albeit I would be more interested in using #AI to try and decode the animal language. A few months ago, I wondered if anybody was doing that to decode dolphins’ communications > @Microsoft funds AI that tracks elephants by their calls https://t.co/1TDRCjc0qy

I’ll miss your session at #BHUSA @Dhilung, I hope it will be repeated at #BHEU here in London. We are not doing enough research on #AI-driven attacks > DeepLocker: How AI Can Power a Stealthy New Breed of Malware https://t.co/Hz6LLVCjDS
