The word algorithm pops up a lot in tech discussions, but what the heck is an algorithm? From learning about an Arabic genius to discovering a way to figure out what day of the week falls on any given date, we look at algorithms.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information ... Show More

<p>In this episode, we dive into the ways in which AI and machine learning are disrupting traditional software engineering principles. With the advent of automation and intelligent systems, developers are increasingly relying on algorithms to create efficient and effective code. ... Show More

At its simplest, an algorithm is a sequence of step-by-step instructions designed to give a result. They are the building blocks of every computer program and are there to ensure every digital device gives the right results on request. For example, when we type a search query int ... Show More

Explore the nature of programming and how programming a computer is different than using a computer. 

Artificial intelligence is letting us make predictive algorithms that translate languages and spot diseases as well or better than humans. But these systems are also being used to make decisions about hiring and criminal sentencing. Do computers trained on vast datasets of human ... Show More

Groundbreaking technologies like neural-net algorithms, along with the ability to run much more powerful computation, started a new era in Machine Learning. We&apos;re now able to use Machine Learning for products in ways we could only dream about and companies from all around th ... Show More

Can algorithms help writers think more clearly and create innovative work ? On this week's 'Algorithm Verb' Ian McMillan is joined by Helen Arney, who performs a brand new love-song (written for the programme) using search engine algorithms, by Eugenia Cheng, a mathematician and ... Show More

Want to learn about AI and machine learning? There are plenty of resources out there to help — blogs, podcasts, YouTube tutorials — perhaps too many. Machine learning engineer Santiago Valdarrama has taken a far more focused approach to helping us all get smarter about the field. ... Show More

When computers became commodity hardware and storage became incredibly cheap, we entered the era of so-call "big" data. Most definitions of big data will include something about not being able to process all the data on a single machine. Distributed computing is required for such ... Show More
