Deep learning: Artificial intelligence meets human intelligence

Deep learning is based on technical advances made by the neural network revolution in the 1980's.  Why did it take so long for neural networks to recognize speech and objects in images at human levels?   What were the breakthroughs that made deep learning possible?  Which industries will deep learning disrupt?  How will deep learning change your life?  These are some of the issues that this lecture will explore.
