The UK Government will not enforce the ban on mobile roaming charges for British citizens travelling in the EU after Brexit, a cross-party committee of MPs has warned. The EU's ban on mobile roaming charges for voice, text messages and data has meant using a smartphone on the continent is the same cost as using it at home. But the House of Commons EU Scrutiny Committee said in a report that this is unlikely to remain in place for the UK following withdrawal. It will mean that network operators will be the ones to decide whether to re-introduce roaming charges on UK customers, following their abolition last year across the whole EU. The I.F.O. is fuelled by eight electric engines, which is able to push the flying object to an estimated top speed of about 120mph.

Apple has unveiled a completely redesigned iPad Pro, with a new look and entirely new insides. The most obvious changes to the tablet are the disappearance of the home button and a vast reduction in the bezels that sweep around the front, so that the screen can take up almost all of the front of the tablet. In place of the home button's Touch ID sensor, previously used to unlock it, has come the Face ID facial recognition technology that first arrived with the iPhone X. The new iPads borrow heavily from that phone, in both its design and the features contained within. The I.F.O. is fuelled by eight electric engines, which is able to push the flying object to an estimated top speed of about 120mph.

American policymakers are concerned that Beijing could use AI-powered facial recognition for domestic surveillance tools that could be exported to other authoritarian regimes. A common thread is running through nearly every tech debate in Washington these days: fear that an ambitious China is poised to win the next wave of technology.

China's research efforts in artificial intelligence (AI) began later than the U.S. and Europe. Early contributions in the 1970s included automated theorem proving, logic reasoning, search, and knowledge engineering. For example, Wen-tsün Wu is a pioneer in automated theorem proving. He received the State Preeminent Science and Technology Award in 2000, an honor bestowed on only 25 Chinese scientists across all fields to date. Bo Zhang and Ruqian Lu received the Life Achievement Award from the China Computer Federation (CCF) for their fundamental contributions respectively on problem solving and knowledge engineering.

PwC and McKinsey both estimate that by 2030, the world GDP will increase by about $12 trillion to $17 trillion, purely as net additional GDP, because of AI. This will make the U.S. and China wealthier. The wealth will go into the hands of a smaller number of people, those who take advantage of AI, so the wealth inequality will increase. One issue that's raised is how does that redistribution of income happen? And, does it need to happen?

AI AI AI; did anyone say AI? The media cannot stop saying AI when they mean "a computer program"; saying AI makes it seem exciting, I guess. The media hasn't a clue about AI but that doesn't stop the onslaught of silly articles; I googled "AI "in the news section and here is a small sample from today: Artificial Intelligence Has A Big-Time Trust Issue www.forbes.com AI is making Halloween so much spookier www.fastcompany.com AI can predict the structure of chemical compounds thousands of times faster than quantum chemistry www.theregister.co.uk

OSAKA – Nintendo Co. said Tuesday its group net profit rose 25.4 percent in the first half of the fiscal year from a year earlier to ¥64.58 billion ($573 million) on robust sales of software for its Switch game console. Operating profit grew 53.7 percent to ¥61.41 billion for the six months through September on sales of ¥388.91 billion, up 4.0 percent, the video game-maker said. Sales of software for the Switch game console surged 91 percent from a year earlier to 42.13 million copies after the releases of "Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze" and "Mario Tennis Aces" in May and June, respectively, Nintendo said. The increase in game titles helped lift sales of the Switch console by 3.7 percent to 5.07 million units in the reporting period, it said. Nintendo launched the Switch in March 2017, aiming to revitalize its struggling console business amid fierce competition with rivals in the growing mobile gaming sector.

Sonos and Hay have finally unveiled the speakers they've been working on together: an array of different colours for the Sonos One. The collection – which brings a flash of colour to the line that until now has only been available in black or white – will cost slightly more than those more conservative colours. The array of colours is made up of Forest Green, Pale Yellow, Soft Pink, Light Grey and Vibrant Red, each of which were designed by furniture and homeware company HAY. The I.F.O. is fuelled by eight electric engines, which is able to push the flying object to an estimated top speed of about 120mph.

Two men walk into a bar, the first one says: "robots will conquer our civilisation and make us their servants within ten years", the second one responds: "No, the principle of artificial intelligence (AI) is a far-fetched goal that will never see light". The bartender smiles, analyses their facial expressions, assigns a sentiment score to their sentences, evaluates their historical drinking trends, and decides to pour the first one a glass of gin and tonic, and the second one a glass of Scotch. Here is the spoiler: both men are lying; and the bartender is a robot. Not a funny joke, but a reality that is shadowing all conventional discussions about the future prospects of AI. In order to avoid such binary discussions about the goodness and possibilities of machine intelligence, and to eliminate the'hype' surrounding the topic, this article aims to unveil the slowly cooking, quietly simmering, unspoken truths of the inevitable global arms race of AI.
