YouTube adverts blocked on videos from channels with under 10,000 views
YouTube has made changes to its ad policy in order to discourage channels from stealing content from other sources. From now on, channels won't be able to make money until their videos have generated 10,000 views. Ads won't appear on creators' videos until they manage to hit this target, with YouTube believing that the 10,000 figure is high enough to give it enough time to work out whether a channel is playing by its rules or not.

How AI Is Transforming the Workplace
Move over, managers, there's a new boss in the office: artificial intelligence. The same technology that enables a navigation app to find the most efficient route to your destination or lets an online store recommend products based on past purchases is on the verge of transforming the office--promising to remake how we look for job candidates, get the most out of workers and keep our best workers on the job. These applications aim to analyze a vast amount of data and search for patterns--broadening managers' options and helping them systematize processes that are often driven simply by instinct. And just like shopping sites, the AIs are designed to learn from experience to get an ever-better idea of what managers want. A company can provide a job description, and AI will collect and crunch data from a variety of sources to find people with the right talents, with experience to match--candidates who might never have thought of applying to the company, and whom the company might never have thought of seeking out.
6 ways chatbots are succeeding for brands
The initial excitement around the marketing potential for chatbots has tempered in the wake of less-than-enthusiastic feedback by some users. However, this hasn't stopped such brands as American Express, Cover Girl, Absolut and others from instilling value in automated dialogues that goes beyond simply telling customers when their order is arriving. At this month's SXSW Conference and Festivals, nearly everyone in the audience for a chatbots panel discussion raised a hand when asked how many had used an automated messaging assistant in the past six months. However, nearly all hands quickly dropped in response to a follow-up question about who was still enthusiastically using the same chatbots. The starkly different responses reflect the gap that exists between consumer interest in chatbots and developers' abilities to execute successfully.
AI Can Stop the Slow Bleed That's Killing Economies
In the last few years, artificial intelligence has quickly broken beyond the realm of science fiction. In fact, IBM -- the creator of the AI powerhouse Watson -- predicts that the AI market will catapult to $2 trillion in the next decade. Nearly every industry on the planet stands to benefit from AI's increased use. But make no mistake, few will see a larger boost than the business of corporate accounting. Senior analyst Jonathan Rodriguez explains why below.
Baftas 2017: indie title Inside wins big but Uncharted 4 takes best game award
At last year's Bafta Game Awards, the developer of Her Story, Sam Barlow, famously so struggled with his three awards that he carried them around in a champagne bucket. This year, indie developer Playdead went one better by winning four for their dystopian puzzle platformer Inside: Artistic Achievement, Game Design, Narrative, and Original Property. After their previous game, Limbo, won none from four in 2011, the team at Playdead were delighted to take home so many this year: "We kind of expected to continue the clean slate, so we're very happy." Inside just missed out on the award for Best Game which went to Uncharted 4, continuing a tradition of big-budget titles walking away with the top prize (Fallout 4 in 2016 and Destiny in 2015). It was the second Best Game win in five years for Uncharted 4's developer Naughty Dog after The Last of Us won in 2013.
Statlearn17, Lyon
Today and tomorrow, I am attending the Statlearn17 conference in Lyon, France. Which is a workshop with one-hour talks on statistics and machine learning. And which makes for the second workshop on machine learning in two weeks! Yesterday there were two tutorials in R, but I only took the train to Lyon this morning: it will be a pleasant opportunity to run tomorrow through a city I have not truly ever visited, if X'ed so many times driving to the Alps. Interestingly, the trip started in Paris with me sitting in the train next to another speaker at the conference, despite having switched seat and carriage with another passenger!
Yet another alarmist automation report. This time from PwC. - Enterprise Irregulars
"Our analysis suggests that up to 30% of UK jobs could potentially be at high risk of automation by the early 2030s, lower than the US (38%) or Germany (35%), but higher than Japan (21%)." They join the many such reports from academics, analysts and authors that filled an entire chapter titled "Sum of all Fears" in my new book, Silicon Collar. "The reality, however, is that when Oxford, MIT, McKinsey, and Gartner talk, the person on the street and even business executives typically just read the headlines, and when all of these big brands agree on something, it solidifies readers' overall impression--in this case, pessimism." The PwC analysis suffers from the same "lab rat" mindset of so many such studies. This comprised US data from the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) database, merged with automatability data from FO.
Startup Twenty Two Motors to create smart scooter powered by artificial intelligence - ETtech
A prototype of a smart electric scooter is taking shape at the Gurugram-based Twenty Two Motors complete with GPRS, GPS and devices such as gyroscope and accelerometer. The startup, founded in August 2016 by automobile-loving engineer Parveen Kharb and Vijay Chandrawat, a software engineer with a career spanning startup roles, raised Rs 10 crore last week from a clutch of high-net-worth individuals in auto industry and plans to launch their innovative scooter at the next Auto Expo in February 2018. "The smart scooter is powered by artificial intelligence and all information is accessible on our server through a cloud system," said chief executive Kharb. The rider is always connected to the scooter via the mobile application that allows remote control and access. The cloud system allows for troubleshooting automatically.
