@John It's growing in popularity, for sure. The Knight Center of Journalism is educating journos with a Data Journalism course. I haven't attended the course myself, but it looked interesting.

Michelle,
You may well be right and anyway you're pointing to a very important phenomenon: there's so much data around that anyone who can analyze it can easily peddle the results. I've already seen the phrase "Tableau journalist" to describe freelancers who mine publicly available data for reportable stories.

My vote went for edge of network security
I think we're in the last generation of managers and software engineers who will think of security as essentially a fence or a barrier to keep intruders out. Given the way cybercrime of all kinds is headed, security is going to have to work more like an immune system than like a wall. Rather than having an unbreakable wall with a carefully guarded door, we're going to end up with the equivalent of helper T cells to alert killer B cells (or if you don't like the immune system analogy, ultimately we're going to have to depend, not on border guards, but on snitches, intel analysts, and SWAT).
In nature, a couple billion years of evolution has shown there's no perfect barrier. We do still have skin, and trees have bark, but if that was all we had, we'd never survive in a real, grubby, living ecosystem.
What AI will eventually make possible is recognizing at least a large part of malware and of hostile messaging as dangerous before it can do much damage ("Your papers, please, Mr. App"), rather than our present system ("Damn! There goes another horse! Got to go get another hasp and lock!")

Fun with imperfect tech! :)
I think the best use of AI will be "Using AI in the cloud to sift through data". There's soooo much data!!

Re: IRobot Vote
I completely agree! Definitely the most important in my opinion. It will lead to gathering all the crucial data information needed for new advancements.

IRobot Vote
I voted for Gathering network critical data for real-time decisions . This is by far more important that anything else, if you can make effective decisions this leads to using new technology, AI, IoT and anything else.

Speech or voice recognition has been around for decades...
I'll be impressed when Siri or Cortana or Alexa (or Bixby or whoever) can properly parse the question: "Can you recognize speech or wreck a nice beach?"
