Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a key tool in the cyber security expert's arsenal to fight new threats inside IT infrastructure, according to a global study produced by analysts at the Ponemon Institute and funded by Aruba, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise's (HPE's) networking unit.

These are perhaps the most powerful and important four words a woman can hear after a breast-screening visit. X-ray based mammography is an effective screening tool for detecting cancer, but what many women may not know is that breast screening programs produce a high level of false positive results, particularly after multiple years of screening. In other words, women are informed they may have cancer when in fact they don't. This is particularly true in the US, where each study is generally read by a single, expert radiologist. In Europe, two independent radiologists read each study.

For decades now, Sam Wineburg, a professor of education and history at Stanford, has been studying the way history is taught. His new book, Why Learn History (When It's Already on Your Phone?), is about the way historical thinking--habits of mind that emphasize the careful assessment of evidence and the presumption of uncertainty, among other things--can help us navigate the information-rich environment of the web. The book, which zips along in a chatty, essayistic mode, details the work Wineburg and his colleagues have done to see how different groups of people--students, professional historians, scientists, and fact-checkers for magazines--process information in online and analog environments. In one entertaining chapter, which we've excerpted on Slate, Wineburg dissects Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States, showing how the beloved book, so often taken as "the real truth" by people turned on to history when they read it, privileges a compelling narrative over the interrogation of evidence. Good historical thinking is by no means a magical solution to our information woes, as demonstrated by Wineburg's reports of what trained historians do while trying to navigate the web to find information about nonhistorical topics.

Audi is joining the growing list of automakers, including BMW and Toyota, choosing to add Alexa voice control to their vehicles. The company will integrate Amazon's voice assistant into select models in North America and Europe, starting in January 2019 and with the newly unveiled E-Tron electric SUV. Audi will load Alexa onto the selected vehicles' infotainment systems, so there's no need to dock your phones -- simply link your car to your Amazon account and then activate the assistant through the onboard voice control system. You'll then be able to ask Alexa to play music, read audiobooks, order groceries, tell you sports scores and to add items to your shopping lists while driving. Ned Curic, VP of Alexa Auto, says you'll also be able to ask Alexa to locate points of interest, as well as to control smart devices from your car.

Aidoc, a Tel-Aviv, Israel-based medical imaging company, announced back in August that it had gained FDA clearance for a new solution that helps radiologists triage patients using artificial intelligence (AI). Now, to meet an increase in customer demand as a result of that announcement, the company has hired Tom Shearer to manage sales in North America and Jeremy De Sy to handle sales throughout Europe. "AI isn't the future for medical imaging; it's the present," Shearer said in a prepared statement. "Aidoc is led by extraordinary individuals who have developed a revolutionary product. This solution is always running in the background, on every exam, filling a critical need in medical imaging by helping radiologists manage their increasing workload while maintaining high standards."

A new study finds that freshmen from 19 colleges in eight countries report symptoms consistent with a diagnosable psychological disorder. "While effective care is important, the number of students who need treatment for these disorders far exceeds the resources of most counseling centers, resulting in a substantial unmet need for mental health treatment among college students," said lead author Randy P. Auerbach, Ph.D., of Columbia University. "Considering that students are a key population for determining the economic success of a country, colleges must take a greater urgency in addressing this issue." For the study, Auerbach and his research team analyzed data from the World Health Organization's World Mental Health International College Student Initiative.

Search is an inextricable and important aspect which is even more relevant in business content management systems when it comes to the making and adaption of digital content. The relevance of search is nothing new especially considering that getting a suitable application for any business procedures. Interestingly, the need for search continues to heighten particularly with the growing application of big data. It is safe to conclude that business data holds the riches of a business and search is the instrument that unleashes the riches. However, the question remains that what is an effective way to handle the continuously big data that businesses possess?

Convoys of driverless lorries could soon take to roads across the UK with the M6/M74 corridor set to be the busiest. At least that's according to a new report that examined the routes across the country most likely to be used by firms who employ the burgeoning technology. The route between Manchester and Glasgow was found to be the most commercially valuable, while the M25 around London would see the biggest improvements in safety with the introduction of autonomous vehicles, the report forecasts. Platoons of self-driving lorries are expected to be trialled on England's motorways by the end of the year. Convoys of driverless lorries could soon take to roads across the UK, with the best routes examined in a new report by transport information firm Inrix.

Electric robo-taxis are a real possibility. Trends in transportation, energy, and demographics indicate that future vehicles will operate autonomously, run on electricity rather than fossil fuels, and be shared instead of privately owned. But before everyone can carpool in self-driving electric cars, we need places to charge them. Today, that's a challenge: there are only about 20,000 charging stations for electric vehicles in the US. McKinsey predicts that major economies (China, Europe, India, and the US) will need to invest $55 billion in charging infrastructure by 2031 to support the 140 million electric vehicles that will be on the road then.

At 51, Sebastian Thrun has already had enough careers for three lifetimes. The computer scientist and Stanford professor did pioneering work in artificial intelligence and helped invent self-driving cars. In 2010 he launched Kitty Hawk, a startup that is testing two personal airborne vehicles. The future, from his perspective, is all blue sky.
