Industry 4.0 and the regulation of artificial intelligence
It is impossible to escape from the fact that technology, and increasingly artificial intelligence (AI), has transformed everyday life. By Oliver Rickett, Solicitor, and Caroline Churchill, Partner, at law firm Womble Bond Dickinson
Encryption techniques protect cloud-based machine learning
A novel encryption method devised by MIT researchers secures data used in online neural networks, without dramatically slowing their runtimes. This approach holds promise for using cloud-based neural networks for medical-image analysis and other applications that use sensitive data. Outsourcing machine learning is a rising trend in industry.
AI could solve issues with lip sync dubbing
Researchers have developed a system using artificial intelligence that can edit the facial expressions of actors to accurately match dubbed voices, saving time and reducing costs for the film industry. It can also be used to correct gaze and head pose in video conferencing, and enables new possibilities for video postproduction and visual effects.
Designing AI powered IoT: Thinking outside the app
On 9th August 2018, at Cocoon Networks, Hardware Pioneers introduced Matthew Cockerill, Head of Studio at Swift Creatives’ new branch in London. Cockerill discussed the nature of AI powered IoT from a design perspective, and how being able to think beyond an app has the potential to enhance how we use AI.
EGG conference: what did we learn about data?
How do you like your EGG conferences? I like mine jam packed full of insightful information and knowledge about the future of Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning and advanced analytics, and that is exactly what this year’s delivered to us. Dataiku sponsored the event that covered presentations and discussions centred on AI moving from merely a headline to an impending reality, for enterprises across the globe.
What AI and robotics should and shouldn’t be allowed to do
81% of consumers all around the world would like 'electronic devices of the future' to make their lives easier. However, users have very different views on what artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and digitalisation should and shouldn’t be allowed to do: 71% of global consumers think that electronic devices should only assist humans. These are the findings of the electronica trend Index 2018.
Artificial intelligence SSD controller architecture solution
At the Flash Memory Summit, Marvell demonstrated how it will provide artificial intelligence capabilities to a broad range of industries by incorporating NVIDIA’s Deep Learning Accelerator (NVDLA) technology in its family of data centre and client SSD controllers.
Disaster relief: how can AI improve humanitarian assistance?
The topic of artificial intelligence (AI) for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief (HA/DR) has been in the spotlight, as leading minds from academia, industry and the federal government met to discuss how modern technology can help victims of disasters around the globe. The Artificial Intelligence and Autonomy for Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief Workshop—co-hosted by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and Carnegie Me...
Children talk to technology, but how does it respond?
A University of Washington study shows how children respond to voice-activated technologies, often treating a device as a conversation partner. The study suggests that devices could be more responsive to children by prompting and filling in gaps in communication. For such popular household technology, that’s a missed opportunity to reach every member of the family, a new University of Washington study finds.
