The best Black Friday deals 2019: welcome to a full weekend of deals

#artificialintelligence

Black Friday itself might be done and dusted but the best deals for 2019 will continue all weekend, plus Cyber Monday deals are just around the corner. That's good news for anyone late to the sales party as that means there's still a significant amount of savings to be had. You'll find those savings everywhere and anywhere, both at big box retailers like Best Buy, Walmart and Target as well as online at Amazon, NewEgg and B&H Photo. So when does Black Friday well and truly end? Admittedly, some deals were for Black Friday only and sold out within minutes or hours, but many deals started a few days before Black Friday and will continue through to Cyber Monday after Thanksgiving. There are many different kinds of deals coming up from laptops to phones to AirPods (although the latter is heading quickly out of stock). We've sadly had little in the way of a cracking Nintendo Switch Black Friday deal, and even the PS4 deals - while they have existed, and haven't been too bad - were more scarce than we expected. But, based on what we saw on Friday, there's a lot more to come. If you're thinking about a deal at the moment, or you're scared it will go cheaper on Cyber Monday, then our advice is simple: if it has a good discount attached to it, go for it! If you later find the product is cheaper elsewhere, you can always buy it again and return the original. Just make sure to check the retailer's terms and conditions for returning items. It's basically been Apple products that have been the winners - with $400 cashback on an iPhone 11, lower prices on AirPods and Apple Watches and MacBook / iPads being cheaper than ever before, it's been (and still is) the time to grab yourself a bargain. There's more in there too - Dyson has been popular for Black Friday 2019, DNA kits have been a surprise package and we've even seen great discount on power tools as well. Anyway, enough of telling you what you're getting, and onto the deals themselves - and if you want something more than what we've scavenged from the depths of the web, here are all the top Black Friday sales from around the web first: HP Laptop 15t: $979.99 $519.99 from HP This HP laptop is a phenomenal price and comes with a 15-inch display paired with a powerful 10th gen Intel Core i7 processor to power the whole thing. Perfect for fitness fanatics, the Powerbeats Pro offer an adjustable ear hook design that keeps your buds firmly in place.


AI thinks like a corporation--and that's worrying

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence is everywhere but it is considered in a wholly ahistorical way. To understand the impact AI will have on our lives, it is vital to appreciate the context in which the field was established. After all, statistics and state control have evolved hand in hand for hundreds of years. Its origins have been traced not only to analytic philosophy, pure mathematics and Alan Turing, but perhaps surprisingly, to the history of public administration. In "The Government Machine: A Revolutionary History of the Computer" from 2003, Jon Agar of University College London charts the development of the British civil service as it ballooned from 16,000 employees in 1797 to 460,000 by 1999.


Artificial Intelligence – ai, ai, ai

#artificialintelligence

If human or natural intelligence is not enough to address whatever problems that ail modern societies, why not turn to Artificial Intelligence? The inexorable push for all things AI is now on. Several months ago, the National Institution for Transforming India (NITI) Aayog put out a proposal costing upwards of a billion dollars to create a national infrastructure for the promotion and adoption of AI techniques to resolve a variety of issues in the fields of agriculture, health, education, urbanisation and mobility. The presumed benefits of this proposal, if adopted, would be the addition of almost a trillion dollars to India's GDP and a 1.3% net increase in the annual growth rate by the year 2035. What would an India so transformed look like?


Japan and India to conduct fighter jet drill in bid to deepen security ties

The Japan Times

NEW DELHI – Japan and India agreed Saturday to conduct their first joint fighter aircraft exercise in Japan as part of efforts to promote bilateral security cooperation in the face of China's military buildup and regional assertiveness. In inaugural "two-plus-two" security talks, the nations' foreign and defense ministers also welcomed the significant progress in negotiations for a pact that would allow the sharing of defense capabilities and supplies including fuel and ammunition. They called for a speedy conclusion to the acquisition and cross-servicing agreement (ACSA), according to a joint statement issued after the talks in New Delhi. The two governments are planning to sign the deal when Prime Minister Shinzo Abe visits India for talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in mid-December, according to Japanese officials. Tokyo and New Delhi aim to have a joint exercise involving fighter jets from the Air Self-Defense Force and the Indian Air Force next year, the officials said.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE – PUTTING THE AI INTO AIR CARGO

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) has long been touted as the transformative technology that will usher in the next generation of the logistics industry. While AI is already established in consumer tech, demonstrated by the plethora of virtual assistants, just how does AI work and how might it benefit the airfreight industry? AI simulates the human intelligence process by using complex algorithms and computer systems to acquire information, reach conclusions and solve problems. To make this work, AI requires building block technologies including big data and analytics and the internet of things which have all become highly technical and specialised technologies in their own right. For logistics to work most efficiently, the entire supply chain needs to generate a rich stream of data which can then be collected, analysed and used to optimise productivity.

A data science spinoff from NEC Corp. has raised additional early stage funding to accelerate development of its automated machine learning platform. DotData, San Mateo, Calif, was spun off from its Japanese parent company last year. The new company announced this week it raised $23 million in Series A funding 18 months after its launch and seed funding round. To date, DotData has raised $43 million. The latest funding announced on Wednesday (Oct.

India is ahead of China and Israel in artificial intelligence readiness, a study has found. AI has been described as the'new electricity'. India should spare no effort to break into the top 10. This question is answered in one of the latest global lists researched and created by Oxford Insights and commissioned by Canada's International Development Research Centre. It is called the Government Artificial Intelligence Readiness Index.


An ODSC West Guide to the Most Important Topics in Data Science Right Now - KDnuggets

#artificialintelligence

Every year, ODSC West gets hundreds of submissions from an array of incredibly talented data science practitioners. Those submissions offer a unique insight into what are some of the most important topics in data science right now. In this article, we'll outline just a few of these topics that our speakers will be presenting on at ODSC West October 29th - November 1st. Deepfakes: Identified as one of the major threats to governments, politicians, businesses, and private individuals alike, deepfakes–both innocent and malevolent–have been dominating the news for several months. Originally only known as a side effect of GANs, deepfakes can create images, videos, and voice files capable of deceiving, at least initially, the general public.
