Binghamton researchers trained an AI to use everything from previous flight times to weather forecasts to say exactly how long passengers will be stuck. HOW WELL DOES IT WORK? Will YOU see the supermoon tonight? The curse of the competitive male: Being flashy helps wins... Have dead POLAR BEARS washed up in Scotland? Will YOU see the supermoon tonight?

Machine learning is the new game changer in business technology. In a world where digital information volumes are doubling every two years on average, machine learning allows organizations to extract highly valuable information from enormous data stores at heretofore unimaginable speeds. Alternatively, companies can invest in none of the above and turn to one of the many new machine learning as-a-service solutions. Getting started with machine learning in this way basically requires what virtually every organization is awash in today: data. The "machine" in question here is a computer.

The research forms part of a survey of nearly 900 experts that is used to compile the Forum's Global Risks report. When asked which emerging technologies need better governance, two technologies were clear outliers: artificial intelligence and robotics, followed by biotechnologies. The third technology most in need of governance is energy capture, storage and transmission. Other technologies in the top 10 are blockchain and distributed ledger (4), which has been touted as having a game-changing effect on industries, from banking and financial services to agriculture. Following this is geo-engineering (5), which is often seen as a response to climate change but whose effectiveness and potential negative side effects remain largely unknown.

A discussion on algorithmic accountability and transparency is missing from Europe's digital economy framework. Citizens need assurances that machines are treating them fairly, writes Liisa Jaakonsaari. Algorithms are the fundamental, invisible building blocks of our digital societies. However, there is currently no legislation, best practice or guidance on algorithmic accountability or transparency. A dialogue among tech companies, consumers and regulators is urgently needed not only in Europe, but globally, to ensure that algorithms are audited and that citizens' rights are safeguarded.

Dutch airline KLM has partnered with DigitalGenius to help incorporate machine learning into its customer service, but humans are in no way getting replaced. Robots remain a common theme in the'who will take your job?' discussions accompanying much of the debate about the future of work. However, very few have looked at the complementary rather than the industrial, revolutionary side of things. Monotonous, mundane tasks have forever come under attack from technology, with machines now operating across most manufacturing lines – though that doesn't mean we should all fear change. Take customer care, for example: it's something that seems menial, but would struggle to fully work on automation.

Minecraft's mysterious woodland mansions are sprawling timber and cobblestone compounds visible from hundreds of blocks away. They erupt from banks of fairy tale oaks punctuated by giant speckled mushrooms, orthogonal aberrations beckoning like inscrutable mausoleums. Inside lies treasure guarded by grumbling gray beings that can summon winged imps, crowds of snapping teeth, or chase you with hatchets down long carpeted halls. There's even a variant of the latter nicknamed "Johnny." It's available now for the Java edition, and includes other curious novelties, like llamas (they'll schlep your stuff around and spit on command), shulker boxes (they retain what's inside even when broken) and village cartographers who'll sell you exploration maps, so you can find your way to the new mansions, as well as the older ocean monuments.

One of the most worrying aspects of emerging machine learning technologies is their invasiveness on user privacy. From rooting out your intimate and embarrassing secrets to imitating you, machine learning is making it hard to not only hide your identity but also keep ownership of it and prevent from being attributed to you words you haven't uttered and actions you haven't taken. Here are some of the technologies that might have been created with good-natured intent, but can also be used for evil deeds when put into the wrong hands.

Editors at the MIT Technology Review recently weighed in with their annual review of the world's 50 Smartest Companies. This list celebrates the most effective pairing of innovation and business across the globe. For the first time, more than 20% of MIT's picks rely on artificial intelligence to support their business at a fundamental level, somewhat redefining what it means to be a truly "smart" company today. How many of these 13 artificial intelligence leaders are you already using? It's working on speech recognition intelligence called Deep Speech 2. This reduces the chance of accidents on autopilot by 50% relative to the safety record of human drivers, according to CEO Elon Musk.
