What does Software Quality mean in the age of AI? | Thomas Steirer | TEDxTUWien
AI is everywhere, even when you discount the hype. It is hidden behind nice user interfaces when taking pictures with your phone, it is running predictions to shape the flow of supply chains, it is writing books and it is helping us drive. Taken all together, his has a huge real-life impact on all of our lives, and requires a high level of quality. But many types of AI work fundamentally different from classically “programmed” systems - so what does “Quality” even mean when talking about AI? And how do we control it?
