The future of astronomy, ALMA and machine learning

Felix Stoehr
ESO/ALMA

Astronomy is changing as the amount and complexity of data taken grows. We argue that observatories are competing for astronomers to work with their data, that observatories will have to reorient themselves to from providing good data only to providing an excellent end-to-end user-experience with all its implications. We briefly discuss the importance of machine learning for data-intensive astronomy.
