The Center for Customer Insights at the Yale School of Management is working withIBM on a new course that will provide students with hands-on analytics education. Students will work with real big data sets from companies and learn to use professional analytics tools that are in demand today. IBM Business Analytics posted a YouTube video about the course.

"It's more than statistics," says Sharon Oster, dean of the Yale School of Management. "When you have a plethora of data it means you have to think a little more strategically upfront about what you do with the data."

You all know the test for artificial intelligence -- the Turing test. A human judge has a conversationwith a human and a computer. If the judge can't tell the machine apart from the human, the machine has passed the test. I now propose a test for computer voices -- the Ebert test. If a computer voice can successfully tell a joke and do the timing and delivery as well as Henny Youngman, then that's the voice I want.

Caroline Casey: Looking past limits

She can't see. She first leave the life of a normal people. And then one day, she completely lost her  sight, and decided to accept her destiny. She said that: "cars and motorbikes and elephants, that's not freedom.Being absolutely true to yourself, is freedom. And I never needed eyes to see -- never. I simply needed vision and belief. And if you truly believe --and I mean believe from the bottom of your heart --you can make change happen. "
