Hey C-Suite: AI Won't Save You!

#artificialintelligence

This article is a collaboration with David Gossett, Principal with Infornautics, who builds first mover technologies that have no instruction set and need to be invented from scratch. He believes data has a story to tell if we apply the right machine models. His specialty is unstructured data. This article is intended to be provocative, to summon curiosity into the issues that plague us today when it comes to machine learning. Three years ago, I wrote this article, Artificial Intelligence Needs to Reset. The AI Hype that was supposed to transpire into all-things automated is still far off. Since that time, we've experienced speed bumps that have pointed to issues including lack of model accountability (black boxes), bias, lack of data representation in the training set etc. An AI Ethics movement emerged to demand more responsible tech, increased model transparency and verifiable models that do what they're supposed to do without impairment or harm to individuals or groups, in the process. Our future is Artificial Intelligence. It's been conjectured that this wonderful AI will be our savior.

What to do if your chatbot doesn't know the answer

#artificialintelligence

Many companies have been using chatbots to provide automatic, scalable, and personalized customer care services. You may think building a chatbot to this end is an easy task, just defining a sequence of messages according to the standard conversation flow, right? No, there is a lot more to it than that! In order to deliver a pleasant experience to end-users (or simply users) and to keep them engaged, the Conversational Designers need to put in quite a bit of effort. Usually, they deep-dive into diverse articles and studies to better understand the business.

Which Countries Are Leading The Data Economy? - AI Summary

#artificialintelligence

The new world order taking shape is likely to be more complex than a simple bi-polar structure, especially since data is being produced at a pace that boggles the mind. For one, we recognize that the digital trace that is generated by computers around the world spans a very wide range of activities, from sending an SMS text message to making a financial transaction. That said, we acknowledge that in the near-term there could be some countries โ€“ China being the pre-eminent example โ€“ where data-sharing between public and private sector agencies with very little mobility beyond the national borders could violate privacy and openness norms and yet yield a temporary advantage in training algorithms inside a "walled garden." If one were to take the point of view that the biggest and highest impact AI applications are the ones that serve the greatest public purpose, access to data is key. While the U.S. scores well on all three criteria โ€“ and this might seem counter-intuitive to prevailing wisdom -- China operates with a handicap if global accessibility of the data is considered essential for creating successful AI applications in the future.


Core Challenges in Embodied Vision-Language Planning

Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research

Recent advances in the areas of multimodal machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) have led to the development of challenging tasks at the intersection of Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Embodied AI. Whereas many approaches and previous survey pursuits have characterised one or two of these dimensions, there has not been a holistic analysis at the center of all three. Moreover, even when combinations of these topics are considered, more focus is placed on describing, e.g., current architectural methods, as opposed to also illustrating high-level challenges and opportunities for the field. In this survey paper, we discuss Embodied Vision-Language Planning (EVLP) tasks, a family of prominent embodied navigation and manipulation problems that jointly use computer vision and natural language. We propose a taxonomy to unify these tasks and provide an in-depth analysis and comparison of the new and current algorithmic approaches, metrics, simulated environments, as well as the datasets used for EVLP tasks. Finally, we present the core challenges that we believe new EVLP works should seek to address, and we advocate for task construction that enables model generalizability and furthers real-world deployment.


How Is AI Changing the Environment for the Better? - Innovation & Tech Today

#artificialintelligence

Significant investments and research developments in artificial intelligence (AI) have made the technology a powerful asset in many industries -- including environmental studies. AI isn't a new technology, but businesses and consumers feel its impact and witness it seep into everyday life. AI is becoming more advanced and autonomous, and it's also broader in its use and impact. More use cases for AI are emerging, and if implemented responsibly, it can greatly benefit society. It's likely to play a role in tackling issues like climate change -- but how? Here's how AI is expected to impact the environment and usher in positive changes for a more sustainable future. It's critical to understand the breadth of environmental problems right now.


Lost cities of the Amazon are discovered after being hidden under the tree canopies for centuries

Daily Mail - Science & tech

A newly discovered network of'lost' ancient cities has been discovered in the Amazon, using lidar technology โ€“ dubbed'lasers in the sky' โ€“ to peer through the tropical forest canopy. The cities, built by the Casarabe communities between 500-1400 AD, are located in the Llanos de Mojos savannah-forest, Bolivia, and have been hidden under the thick tree canopies for centuries. They feature an array of elaborate and intricate structures unlike any previously discovered in the region, including 16ft-high terraces covering 54 acres โ€“ the equivalent of 30 football pitches โ€“ and 69ft-tall conical pyramids. The international team of researchers from the UK and Germany also found a vast network of reservoirs, causeways and checkpoints, spanning several miles. The discovery challenges the view of Amazonia as a historically'pristine' landscape, the researchers say, showing it was instead home to an early'urbanism' created and managed by indigenous populations for thousands of years.


Interview with Alessandra Rossi: an insight into the RoboCup virtual humanoid league

AIHub

Alessandra Rossi is a member of both the technical and organising committees for the RoboCup Humanoid League. We spoke to her about the Humanoid League Virtual Season, which concluded with the grand final of the virtual soccer competition, and a three day workshop. The Humanoid League Virtual Season (HLVS) has been driven by two main core motivations: firstly to allow teams to have support for continuous testing while making progresses and changes to their software, and secondly, to keep the teams connected throughout the year, thus strengthening the community and collaboration between teams. We wanted to let teams use the longer periods between games, and the continuous games throughout the year to test novel approaches, with less risk, and to aid their success in the overall tournament. In addition, this way, teams can thoroughly analyse the collected data between games, and make informed decisions on how to improve and implement their approaches for the following match.
