“Researchers from Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) have developed a novel artificial intelligence (AI) tool to predict the grade of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA), a known structural correlate of progressive and chronic kidney disease.”
“An artificial intelligence framework built by MIT researchers can give an ‘early-alert’ signal for future high-impact technologies, by learning from patterns gleaned from previous scientific publications.”
“Yahoo Japan has begun providing to clients, and even its rivals, a free service that uses artificial intelligence to determine if comments posted in Japanese on online forums are appropriate to its clients.”
“….LG’s super-giant AI will have the capabilities of top human experts in each field, including software development, data analysis, and customer counseling…”
“…Called artificially innervated foam, or AiFoam, the new material – which is soft and feels like a sponge – mimics the human sense of touch, can sense nearby objects without actually touching, and repairs itself when damaged….”
“…The consortium will develop an AI-based inertial navigation system (INS) and digitalize marine logistics information. The demonstration will test technologies that can reduce operating costs of roll-on and roll-off vessels designed to carry wheeled cargo…”
“The technology extracts data points from loan documents and compares them with numerous databases to confirm identity, employment, income and other vital information.”
“…The software has already been beta tested in the public transportation system of the City of Manizales in the Republic of Colombia, where it achieved a 30% reduction in hydrocarbon emissions as a result of better route management…”
“…Finance and accounting (F&A) comprise mundane tasks highly suited for automation. Gartner cites that 89 per cent of general accounting operations and 72 per cent of financial controlling and reporting are automatable. “
“…In a new series of experiments, AI algorithms “were able to influence people’s preferences for fictitious political candidates or potential romantic partners”.
The question here is: should we be surprised?…”
“Spyfish Aotearoa is also being used to train artificial intelligence software. In the future, these models will be able to automatically identify and count the species. “Using machine learning will save a huge amount of time and resources, and produce data that can be used almost immediately,” says Anton.”
“An innovative artificial intelligence (AI) tool that will make it easier for countries to measure the contributions of nature to their economic prosperity and well-being was launched by the United Nations and the Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3).”
“…Force-fitting brand and creator never works. Effective influencer marketing campaigns start with finding the right creator. Matching the correct creator to a brand goes beyond subjective keyword search. It requires objectively analysing every element of every content by every shortlisted creator…”
“…The digital assistants are built on CogniCor’s CIRA platform, a proprietary system that leverages
machine-learning algorithms to understand the intent behind user queries and return accurate, appropriate responses or courses of action that directly address users’ needs….”
“Students newly accepted by colleges and universities this spring are being deluged by emails and texts in the hope that they will put down their deposits and enroll. If they have questions about deadlines, financial aid and even where to eat on campus, they can get instant answers.
The messages are friendly and informative. But many of them aren’t from humans.”
“Artificial intelligence (AI) remains a very hot technology across most industries, with analyst firms such as Gartner predicting the number of AI projects continuing to increase within the next year.”
“Can artificial intelligence be deployed to slow down global warming, or is AI one of the greatest climate sinners ever? That is the interesting debate that finds (not surprisingly) representatives from the AI industry and academia on opposite sides of the issue.”
“Emotion recognition technology (ERT) is in fact a burgeoning multi-billion-dollar industry that aims to use AI to detect emotions from facial expressions. Yet the science behind emotion recognition systems is controversial: there are biases built into the systems. Many companies use ERT to test customer reactions to their products, from cereal to video games. “
“For a complex cancer surgery, London-based surgeon Dr Shafi Ahmed – renowned for performing the world’s first virtual reality operation and live-streaming it – sought help from Dr Shailesh Shrikhande, deputy director of Tata Memorial Hospital in Mumbai. They used a Microsoft Hololens to get connected remotely. The Hololens smartglasses uses sensors, advanced optics, and holographic processing to display information and blend with the real world. Dr Shrikhande says his virtual avatar entered the London operating room. “
“Artificial intelligence (AI) has sped up the process of detecting flooded buildings immediately after a large-scale flood, allowing emergency personnel to direct their efforts efficiently. Now, researchers have created a machine learning (ML) model that uses news media photos to identify flooded buildings accurately within 24 hours of the disaster.”
