Summary:

Brute computing force alone can't solve the world's problems. In this TEDTalk, data mining innovator Shyam Sankar explains why solving big problems (like catching terrorists or identifying huge hidden trends) is not a question of finding the right algorithm, but rather the right symbiotic relationship between computation and human creativity. An advocate of human-computer symbiosis, Sankar looks for clues in big and disparate data sets.
