NG911 and Big Data - Is It TMI?

Published: May 6, 2018, 11:32 p.m.

It's no secret that in 2017 humans and machines generated 2.5 quintillion bytes of information daily on the Internet. To give you an idea of how big this is, this would fill 10 million Blu-ray discs, which if stacked, would measure the height of four Eiffel Towers on top of each other. With this much data being generated, we reached a point in our lives when humans can no longer be expected to process information at a usable rate by themselves. This is where the "Age of Artificial Intelligence" needs to come into existence if we are going to utilize this information in any useful way.
