  • A new way to train AI systems could keep them safer from hackers
    by Karen Hao on 10th July 2020 at 2:03 pm

    The context: One of the greatest unsolved flaws of deep learning is its vulnerability to so-called adversarial attacks. When added to the input of an AI system, these perturbations, seemingly random or undetectable to the human eye, can make things go completely awry. Stickers strategically placed on a stop sign, for example, can trick a…

  1. This works….. I deployed PotentLeads and I started seeing the results from the very next day…. it has kept me very busy and has identified 5 prospects with interest to discuss within a week -Amazing tool for prospecting.

  2. Having been in sales and marketing for years, I was familiar with prospecting tools, but none of them have ever performed at this level. Rather than simply finding people who might be interested, it builds curiosity and helps get them to a point where they seek you out. Finding people who are genuinely interested in your solution and who contact you to educate them and help them is truly a game-changer. AI and specifically PotentLeads is the future of building a strong relationship and long term customer base. I will continue to use PotentLeads for a long time myself!

  4. I was hesitant about switching to Artificial Intelligence Services and Engineering Operations at the beginning, but now that I have I am so glad I did! Everyone there is great, they know what they are doing, and if they don’t then they will find someone who does to teach them. The positive attitude is shown by everyone there is really amazing, it inspires me to have the same attitude and strive to create the same work environment at my company. Thank you to everyone at Artificial Intelligence Services and Engineering Operations for exceeding my expectations!
