Today on In Case You Missed It: Researchers from Seoul National University and UC Berkeley developed a robotic roach that jumps more than five feet high because people weren't scared enough of robots as it is. A team from Brigham Young University wants to figure out how hard you have to hit bacteria to kill it. And one enterprising maker spent more than two years building a fully functional Pong table -- complete with a cubical "ball."

Even though they questioned the value and consistency of infinitistic logic, Hilbert and his contemporaries did not wish to give up such abstractions--power tools of mathematical reasoning that in 1928 would enable the British philosopher and mathematician Frank Ramsey to chop up and color infinite sets at will. "No one shall expel us from the paradise which Cantor has created for us," Hilbert said in a 1925 lecture. He hoped to stay in Cantor's paradise and obtain proof that it stood on stable logical ground. Hilbert tasked mathematicians with proving that set theory and all of infinitistic mathematics is finitistically reducible, and therefore trustworthy. "We must know; we will know!" he said in a 1930 address in Königsberg--words later etched on his tomb.

You are how you drive, we learned this week, when researchers showed how your car's computer can identify you based on patterns in your driving techniques. And it doesn't take much data to do so. Information collected from a car's brake pedal alone let the researchers distinguish the correct driver nine times out of 10. Patterns, of a different sort, also played a role in a map researchers have created to track where government hackers around the world are spying on journalists, activists, lawyers, and NGOs. And speaking of surveillance--whistleblower Edward Snowden also popped up in a Vice episode this week to show you how to make your phone "go black" so it's harder to surveil.

Xiaomi, a company best-known for producing surprisingly affordable, high quality smartphones you can't buy in the US, has added to its roster a surprisingly affordable, (probably) high-quality drone--that you can't buy in the US. The Mi Drone has plenty of impressive specs, but the one that matters most is 460. That's roughly how much it will cost when it launches in China this July, and well under half of what you'd pay DJI for its ubiquitous Phantom 4. The Mi Drone quadcopter comes with a 4K camera that shoots at 30fps (you can also get a 1080p version for 380), a three-axis gimbal that corrects itself 2,000 times per second, and a remote control that uses a Xiaomi phone as a viewfinder. The Mi Drone's 5,100mAh battery promises nearly a half hour of flight time, and it uses GPS and GLOSNASS to ensure accurate positioning. It's got location-tracking in case you lose it.

Plus, how one journalist is handling the challenges of reporting on the drone war in northwest Pakistan. The world's largest social media network is also one of the biggest news platforms - so allegations of a bias towards liberal news issues has triggered a lot of scrutiny, both from outside and from within. This week we unpick how Facebook delivers the news to you and why it matters. Many journalists and writers have been tracking the Facebook story and its implications. For this report, we have spoken to: Zeynep Tufekci, assistant professor at the School of Information and Library Science, University of North Carolina; Callum Borchers, media and politics reporter at The Washington Post; Will Oremus, technology reporter at Slate.com; and Kelly McBridge, media ethicist, The Poynter Institute.

HYDERABAD: At a time when most of the startups are focusing on solving fairly shallow problems, Avishkar, the start-up accelerator programme of International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad (IIIT-H) on Friday took three companies under its wings to encourage entrepreneurs who are into solving deep-tech problems. Screened from about 140 applications across the world, the top three companies are all set to form the first batch of the six-month long programme. The selected startups will now work closely with the Avishkar team and the faculty members of IIIT-H labs and other partners over the next six months to get to a level of investment-readiness that will launch them to the next stage of their journey. "We are a four-month-old company trying to build a virtual personal stylist for women. Through our app, we want to offer all the services that a stylist offers to women. In other words, we want to create artificial intelligence (AI) of a personal stylist. The best part about Avishkar is that unlike many accelerators, the programmes here are personalised for each and every startup and would be helpful for us to grow faster," Komal Prajapati, founder, Fabulyst, said.

"There are ugly things that have to happen in order to make the enterprise work and play with the cloud," says David Linthicum, SVP of Cloud Technology Partners, a cloud consulting firm based in Boston, in a recent podcast. To help enterprises address these challenges, public cloud vendors need to place more of an emphasis on hybrid cloud. In this podcast, Linthicum and Sandeepan Banerjee, SVP of engineering and operations for container management company ClusterHQ and former Data Head at Google, discuss this topic, as well as new cloud technologies, such as containers and machine learning. Will public cloud vendors fill in container ecosystem gaps? Containers are one of several new cloud technologies making their way into the enterprise.

One day in January, Eric Wilson dashed off a message to the teaching assistants for an online course at the Georgia Institute of Technology. "I really feel like I missed the mark in giving the correct amount of feedback," he wrote, pleading to revise an assignment. Thirteen minutes later, the TA responded. "Unfortunately, there is not a way to edit submitted feedback," wrote Jill Watson, one of nine assistants for the 300-plus students. Last week, Mr. Wilson found out he had been seeking guidance from a computer.

Noida, India and London, United Kingdom, May 27th 2016 – HCL Technologies, a leading global IT services company, has been named the winner of the Best Innovation in Natural Language Processing (NLP) award at the AIconics Awards. The AIconics are the world's only independently judged awards celebrating the drive, innovation and hard work in the international Artificial Intelligence Community organised by AIBusiness and was hosted during The AI Summit on the 5th May. HCL was also named as a finalist in the Best Intelligent Assistant category, which showcases companies making ground-breaking advancements in virtual assistants and advanced voice/text recognition capabilities. This year's awards featured 5 categories, recognising industry leaders across a broad spectrum of AI technologies. In winning the Best Innovation in NLP award, the AIconics Awards judges recognised that HCL is ahead of the curve when it comes to NLP, at a time when many businesses are looking towards productivity and automation of roles and tasks.

Related: Robot revolution: rise of'thinking' machines could exacerbate inequality As a senior adviser to Hillary Clinton, Alec Ross travelled the world with the remit of cataloguing the best examples of innovation the human race has to offer. His trips took him to Korea, the Congo and Silicon Valley (and far enough overall he has calculated, to take him from the Earth to the moon twice, with a side trip from the US to New Zealand), and left him with a concern that the rate of change could leave many behind. From robots entering the workforce and leading to the very real prospect of redundancy within a decade for the million employees of Taiwan's electronics manufacturing giant Foxconn to genetic engineering unleashing the possibility of designer babies, the power of technology to reshape the world is reaching historic levels. But the people who have the most to lose from those changes are often the ones who get the least warning. That, says Ross, was his motivation for writing The Industries of the Future, which looks at six of the biggest waves of change about to hit the world.
