IBM Research has a long history of artificial intelligence research going back to the 1950s. In recent years, we have greatly expanded our efforts in AI, and I will provide an overview of our research in a number of areas, including: lifelong learning, learning from unlabeled data, adaptive architectures, reading comprehension, and fairness and accountability in AI.
