It is little noticed that two camps have emerged in AI and machine learning (ML). One, which we call "Petri-dish AI" and which is exemplified by clean, simple-to-define yet challenging-to-solve problems like playing games or making biological or chemical discoveries. The other camp, in which Mihaela van der Schaar's Lab is a leader, and which we call "Reality-centric AI," puts the inherent and unavoidable complexity of the real world at the heart of designing, training, testing, and deploying models. Reality-centric AI is AI which can operate effectively and reliably in the real world.
