Editor's Notes
- #17 Mention TestIO here as companies trying to address this complete Applitools Mabl Lino to expand risk profiling – scientist and engineer being on the same project
- #18 Funny for input output joke? Intelligent system is based on inputs and outputs Link to expand on what other inputs and outputs are involved in an AI model Each change to an application and a new test case can act as inputs to help update object definitions and descriptions. And each can change quickly as software developers enhance the application, adding new objects with new functionality or updating object definitions and descriptions while they are fixing bugs.

- #22 Certainly, many companies have used AI to automate processes, but those that deploy it mainly to displace manual work will see only short-term productivity gains. In our research involving 1,500 companies, we found that firms achieve the most significant performance improvements when humans and machines work together. The same applies to today’s object recognition. Through hybrid recognition, humans and AI actively enhance each other’s complementary strengths: stability, and accuracy, of the former, and the speed and scalability of the latter to perfect recognition reliability. What comes simple to property-based recognition (identifying subtle differences between two images, for example) can be tricky for machines, and what’s straightforward for machines (analyzing gigabytes of data) remains virtually impossible for humans. Testing requires both kinds of capabilities.
