Data Quotes

Education is basically downloading data and algorithms into your brain.

I am really excited about the possibility of data also, to improve health. Imagine you had the ability to search people's medical records in the US. I imagine that would save 10,000 lives in the first year.

I think the main thing that we need to do is just provide people choice, show them what data's being collected -- search history, location data. We're excited about incognito mode in Chrome, and doing that in more ways, just giving people more choice and more awareness of what's going on.

We must develop open source systems that enhance trust and transparency. We must build quality data centres free from biases, we must democratise technology and create people centre applications.

Loss of jobs is AI's most feared disruption, but history has shown that work does not disappear due to technology, only its nature changes.

Scarcely anything material or established which I was brought up to believe was permanent and vital, has lasted. Everything I was sure or taught to be sure was impossible, has happened.

Consider data without prejudice.
