## Why time series AI?

One definition of artificial intelligence proposed by [Hado van Hasselt from DeepMind](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCCjZe0y4Qc&list=PLqYmG7hTraZDVH599EItlEWsUOsJbAodm) is "to be able to learn to make decisions to achieve goals." Using this definition can conclude that these decisions are made over time to achieve an application's goals. Thus, time and time-series data can be seen as fundamental concepts when developing an application's intelligence.
