And wearable medical devices are the oil fields of our age.The 2010s ushered Machine and Deep Learning, a breakthrough in the ability of computers to use data to make predictions. The best way to understand the magnitude of this breakthrough is to compare it to the invention of computers. In the 1940s, humans (known as computers!)performed all necessary calculations needed for science, research, accounting, etc. At a speed of tens to hundreds of calculations per hour, global computing capacity was likely in the billions of calculations per year. Today's fastest computer calculates a thousand trillion calculations per second! Today's cell phones calculate trillions of calculations per second or what it took the entire human race TEN years to calculate less than 100 years ago. This explosion in calculation capacity transformed every aspect of our life.
