We want to demystify Artificial Intelligence and open up the public discourse around the positive, ethical uses that can have a positive impact on people's lives. AI has enormous potential to transform the way that systems and services are provided across all areas of society, such as; local and national government, science, health, education, arts, climate action, transport, manufacturing, emergency services, academia and research. Much of the public discourse about AI to date has focused on the benefits for the private sector. We want to change that, raising the profile of AI innovators helping improve social outcomes in communities across Scotland. If AI is to be used as a tool to improve our society, there must be focus on the intended and unintended impact on users, on addressing inequalities and not exacerbating them, on making technology that is open and accessible and to not entrench bias and discrimination within the technologies we create.

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Amsterdam 2019. Christina Boutrup - China Expert and Author of "The Great Tech Revolution" ABSTRACT Chinese consumers are probably the most courted in the world and companies have to be extremely creative to catch their attention on social media platforms. At the same time they are very curious and open to try new things and test new technologies that can make their lives easier. This is probably one of the reasons why new digital business models and AI technologies like facial recognition are taking off at a unprecedented speed in China. But more importantly the Chinese government is making a big bet on AI to solve many of the future challenges in Chinese society, thus letting technologies develop in a lax legal environment without too much emphasis on ethics and privacy [...] Read the full abstract here: https://gotoams.nl/2019/sessions/1060... https://twitter.com/GOTOamst Get your ticket at http://gotocon.com

It is an open directory of AI ecosystem activities, stakeholder information and more that shall foster collaboration between AI practitioners worldwide, provide access to those interested in becoming active in the field of AI, and drive local and global AI agenda development via the necessary input from the grassroots AI community. As of now, we're having 26 cities from already 6 continents unlocked, roughly 500 upcoming events to join, over 1,000 active community groups to engage with, tens of local AI influencers to follow and almost 1,000 startups to discover. The past year, we've seen various ambassadors using the information to bring together local AI stakeholders such as Meetup organizers and other community actors, AI startup founders, data scientists and machine learning engineers from various organziations, AI-related initiative founders and governmental/municipality representatives discussing to develop (a) their local AI ecosystem further and (b) an aligned AI agenda. Our new director Valentina Colombo joined us to facilitate ambassadors and the AI community leveraging the AI Ecosystem Wiki in even more ways. Expect regular newsletters on the global AI ecosystem, progress benchmarks and reports, local AI ecosystem regulars, AI Council support and much more.

The power of artificial intelligence to transform every field it touches is one of the unchallenged truths of our time -- but when it comes to healthcare, the technology's potential is often seen through a western lens. From hopes of faster drug discovery to systems that will help people manage chronic diseases better, the emphasis is frequently on how it can support, or otherwise make life easier, for those in the developed world. But attention is increasingly turning to how AI can address the pressing problems of poorer nations as they seek to move towards universal health coverage. In some cases, these are challenges that are distinct to the global south, but in others the problems faced in developing regions are to some extent shared by patients, physicians and payers across the globe. The Lancet's collaboration with the Financial Times on a commission on the convergence of digital health, AI and universal health coverage will concentrate on international governance and regulatory regimes.

Amazon Web Services Inc.'s re:Invent conference is still nearly a week away, but you wouldn't know it from the sheer number of new products and updates its announced in recent days -- especially in artificial intelligence, likely to be a key focus of the conference. Following last week's storage announcements and its "internet of things" updates on Monday, AWS today introduced new features aimed at making it easier for developers to add AI predictions to their applications and services. The central idea is to put Amazon's machine learning technology in reach of more developers, AWS principal Matt Asay said in a blog post. Machine learning predictions will soon be able to run on unstructured or relational data in Amazon S3, its main storage service, and Amazon Aurora, which is a cloud-hosted MySQL and PostgreSQL-compatible relational database service. What that means is that customers will be able to train machine learning models in SQL using Aurora or AWS Athena, which is an interactive query service for analyzing data in S3.

At the end of the week I had a chance to give a guest input at the kick-off meeting of the new Erasmus Plus project "Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Vocational Education and Training (VET)". The partners come from Greece, Italy, Lithuania and the United Kingdom/Wales. All partners are known to us from previous European cooperation activities, so the project team was in a good position to have a rapid start. My role as a visitor was to give an overview of some predecessor projects and their recent/ongoing work. In addition I had a surprise input to deliver on top of my presentation.

We are now well aware millennials and Generation Z have different expectations to their parents. With globalisation and the democratisation of knowledge, enabled by the internet and mobile devices, the average citizen is consuming services of all kinds in an entirely new way. From renewing your car tax from your phone and having a video chat with your doctor, we now expect to access healthcare, government and educational services in a similarly convenient way, and artificial intelligence (AI) is often the solution to providing it.

Fujitsu has developed a new artificial intelligence-based method of performing behavioral analysis on video footage, which it says can recognize a range of subtle and complex human activities without large amounts of training data, according to a company announcement. The new "Actlyzer" technology was developed by Fujitsu Laboratories and the Fujitsu Research and Development Center, and combines about 100 basic actions it is pretrained for modularly to identify more complex behaviors, such as acting suspiciously or considering a purchase. In contrast, Fujitsu says, deep learning technologies typically rely on huge amounts of video to train the recognition of individual behaviors, which means they take several months to be introduced in the field. The systems accuracy for recognizing the 100 basic actions is 90 percent or higher on average, according to Fujitsu. Suggested potential uses for the technology include automatic detection of suspicious activity, product interest surveys based on recognized purchase behavior, and training applications by comparing the skills of workers with different levels of experience in factories.

Autonomous cars have been recently hitting the headlines and dominating tech-talks. They are seen as a post-Uber disruption to public commute and transportation of goods. Surely they are no figment of imagination in the age of artificial intelligence (AI), which is being used to complement driverless cars. Companies such as Waymo and Tesla are heavily invested in driverless cars. Currently, Waymo has begun testing of driverless cars again after stopping in 2017.
