I was dragging myself through O'hare when I briefly looked up and saw a facial recognition camera. "I bet I look like crap" I thought to myself.

But then I wondered. Would the algorithms know that I was exhausted and worn down? Or would they just assume I look like crap all the time?

I decided to get to the bottom of it. I called up my smart friends and asked them, "Who do we know that knows all about Deep Learning and AI?" All signs pointed to writer and expert, James Kobielus.

James joins myself, Phil Yanov and Bill Bensing to answer our questions and help us address some hot data topics. We talk about AI, Big Data, Deep Learning, Robotics, Chat Bots, Autonomous Cars, and really try to tackle the hype as well as answer some key questions:

- What is Deep Learning?
- Deep Learning's relationship with Machine Learning, AI, Big Data and Robotics.
- Is it all just more vendor/consultant hype?
- What are practical use cases for Deep Learning?
- What do companies need skill wise to take advantage of it?
- What does the future look like around this?
