There's a ton of applications for AI. Back when I was at Spotify, I co-authored Basic Pitch (https://basicpitch.spotify.com/), an audio-to-midi library. There are a ton of uses for AI outside of what's heavily publicized.

Medical field, spotting things

Autonomous drones

Financial fraud detection

Scheduling of trains/buses/etc

the only chatbot for me is smarterchild

I feel like that sentence aged me.

Thank you. Because I was just shaking my head "kids these days"
