Like bees to honey, tech trends generate hype. Merely appending the word "dotcom" to a company's name drove up stock prices in the Internet's salad days. Cloud computing, big data, and cryptocurrencies each have taken their turn in the hype cycle in recent years. Every trend brings genuinely promising technological developments, befuddling buzzwords, enthusiastic investors, and reassuring consultants offering enlightenment--for a fee, naturally. Now the catchall phrase of artificial intelligence is shaping up as the defining technological trend of the moment.

AI in healthcare is already making waves with reports suggesting that artificial intelligence systems will generate $6.7 billion in revenue from the global healthcare industry. One particular area in healthcare that has significantly evolved is genomics. Comprising of areas such as gene sequencing and gene editing, this space is largely being explored in areas such as agriculture, animal husbandry and personalised medicine, among others. While researchers have been sequencing the gene and analysing DNA for a long time now, they face challenges such as the huge size of the genome, identifying regulatory elements, predicting gene function, high costs or technology limitations. Apart from that, the amount of data around genes and genomes in itself is humongous which is further added upon by the vast amount of patient data. Researchers have now been using machine learning in gene synthesis, understanding the genetic makeup of an organism, building precision and personalised medicines, and more.

Apple is planning to drop its existing screen technology across its iPhones, according to a new report. As well as meaning the latest OLED displays will come all of its phones, the technology could allow for radical new designs in the iPhone. Future models could include bendy screens, for instance, or allow them to be controlled in entirely different ways. The LCD display has been a fixture of the iPhone since it was first released in 2007. It has featured in just every model since, until the iPhone X arrived last year.

These findings are described in the article entitled The quantitative assessment of archaeological artifact groups: Beyond geometric morphometrics, recently published in the journal Quaternary Science Reviews. This work was conducted by Norman MacLeod from The Natural History Museum, London, University College London, and the Nanjing Institute of Palaeontology and Stratigraphy, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Archaeology is usually defined as the study of human cultural development through the analysis of materials that have been produced by human cultures in both time and space. While the literature devoted to historically-recorded time dwarves that devoted to prehistory, the pre-historical period encompasses over 99 percent of human history. Almost all our understanding of what humans were like, how they lived, where they lived, and what they accomplished during the overwhelming majority of human history comes from their artifacts ( see Figure 1) along with data from comparatively small, but no less important, collections of their skeletal remains.

There's general agreement within financial institutions that digitization is transforming their industries in fundamental ways, but many have yet to grasp the scale and depth of these changes. Today's emerging technologies will not merely speed up transactions and reduce their cost through automation. They will also drive a significant restructuring of the entire financial sector, alter the balance of power between established players and newcomers, and change the way ordinary people manage and spend their money. Three technologies will play particularly influential roles in this transformation. The revolution brought by AI will enable financial services organizations to better predict their customer needs and offer unprecedented levels of personalization.

Google has become the first tech giant to be hit with a record fine for breaching the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). But experts warn the case is "just the tip of the iceberg". The €50 million (£44m) fine issued by French regulator CNIL was triggered by complaints relating to how Google handled people's data, and as one of the biggest handlers and processors of people's data in the world it is not surprising that Google was the first to feel the financial consequences of breaching GDPR rules. The amount was still way below the maximum fine allowed under the new rules, though perhaps more significant than the amount are the implications of the fine on the rest of the tech industry. Data experts warn other major tecnology firms will be next in line due to their lax approach to people's data, with Google's fine potentially representing a seminal moment for people's privacy.

Apple's mysterious AirPower charging mat might finally be on its way. Numerous rumours have suggested production is starting on the wireless charger – which is intended to allow people to charge their iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods all at the same time – and that it could be released this year. The charger had been feared dead after it was unveiled in September 2017 but then hardly mentioned again. Late last year, Apple removed almost every mention of AirPower from its website, leading to fears it was being quietly erased from history. But the name still appeared in some unexpected places: the user guides for the latest iPhones make reference to it, some Apple job postings appear to suggest it is still being worked on, and one version of Apple's website made reference to it in reference to the company's new battery cases. Now numerous reports suggest AirPower has now entered production and could be released later this year.

Many of the unusual robots working at Japan's Henn na Hotel are now out of work. Humans worried about the robot revolution threatening their jobs can relax. Japan's Henn na Hotel prided itself on its all-robot staff, but it turns out they weren't up to the job. Henn na's robot staff was first employed in 2015 with the aim of becoming "the most efficient hotel in the world." But four years later, it seems that the 243 robots are less of a novelty and more of a nuisance.

SHANGHAI (Reuters) - China's SZ DJI Technology Co Ltd, the world's largest maker of consumer drones, said employees inflating the cost of parts for personal gain led to incidents of suspected corruption that may have caused it to suffer a hit of almost $150 million last year.
