# AI Overview

A 28-slide survey of artificial intelligence by Samuel M. Smith, dated 2018-02-08. It reviews kinds of AI and machine learning, new kinds of AI for blockchain, distributed consensus, and the author's earlier work on autonomous vehicles and coordinated control. It predates KERI and is not about it.
