A.I. isn’t yet capable of fully functioning without human assistance. Hybrid intelligence systems combine humans and A.I. systems to achieve greater accuracy.

New research from the U.S. Army Research Laboratory shows a system that uses a brain-computer interface armed with computer vision technology that allows a person to rapidly see and sort images within their line of sight.

CloudSight, a Los Angeles-based technology company specializing in image captioning, is working on a hybrid crowdsourced computer vision system. Microsoft researchers have proposed hybrid human-in-the-loop and machine learning methods (codenamed Pandora) that facilitate the process of describing and explaining failures in machine learning systems.
