50 TOP ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE EXPERTS & INFLUENCERS TO FOLLOW IN 2018

Here’s a Fine List of 50 Top Global Artificial Intelligence Experts & Influencers to Follow in 2018.

Important Note: Because it’s hard to compare enormous structures with other companies or individual influencers, we have excluded, for more visibility, The Biggest AI Companies, like IBM, Microsoft, Nvidia, Google, Amazon, … These are, in each case, in the “Hall of fame of AI”.

(This list is covering major Topics around AI, such as: Machine Learning, Deep Learning, IoT (Internet of Things), Algorithms, Neural Networks, Autonomous Vehicles, Digital Health, Cloud, Smart Cities, Automation, Robotics, Robots/Bots/Chatbots, Data Science, IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things), Big Data, Analytics, Fintech, Insurtech, SEO/Digital Marketing, DevOps…)

The ‘Score’ in this list  is based on our own dataset analysis (build with Internet-Social Media Influence and “Real Life” Authority) through a homemade algorithm. So, this list is of course non exhaustive 😉
