The current period of progress in artificial intelligence was triggered when Krizhevsky et al. demonstrated that an artificial neural network designed twenty years earlier could outperform complex state-of-the-art image recognition methods by a huge margin, simply by being a hundred times larger and trained on a dataset similarly scaled up. This breakthrough was made possible thanks to G

You'll

Today, Ada is heavily used in embedded real-time systems, many of which are safety critical. While Ada is and can be used as a general-purpose language, it will really shine in low-level applications: - Embedded systems with low memory requirements (no garbage collector allowed) - Direct interfacing with hardware - Soft or hard real-time systems - Low-level systems programming Specific d
