Huge Untapped Potential of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare

#artificialintelligence

A lot has been spoken about the potential of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to disrupt industries. AI is already seeing a wide application in industries such as finance, education, robotics, transportation, security, and to an extent in healthcare. Today in healthcare, ML and AI application have been seen mostly in diagnostics, research and new drug development. Popular use cases being image recognition of retinal scans to detect early signs of retinopathy and disease progression in diabetics and hypertensive patients. It also serves as an aid to recognize abnormalities in ECG tests, X-rays, ultrasound, CT and MRI scans.


How AI can help reduce money laundering

#artificialintelligence

Money laundering is big criminal business worldwide. Banks are tasked by the regulators with reducing the volume and value of money laundering over their services, but that's easier said than done. In response, many are now starting to use artificial intelligence (AI) to tune results, finding small anomalies within a large amount of data. In the fight against money laundering, banks need both scale and granularity. In most countries, the regulatory requirements make it difficult to track the success of anti-money laundering (AML) projects, however.



Alternative Interfaces Are Nothing New, But the Time to Adapt is Now

#artificialintelligence

Last year marked the 50th anniversary of Stanley Kubrick's space-race era epic, "2001: A Space Odyssey", prompting several outlets to do side-by-side comparisons on how the film's depiction of digital technologies matched up against what we really had around the turn of the century. Of course, no one can do this without mentioning the film's central antagonist, HAL 9000, a sentient computer who interacts with the doomed characters through a verbal interface, reminiscent of the way that contemporary users deploy Amazon's Alexa to order pizza. So, while some might point to this similarity as proof of Kubrick's intuition, the reality is that we have been pushing towards zero U/I, or interfaces that do not rely on screens, for decades. The concept of zero U/I was first defined by then Fjord Design Director, now frog Creative Director, Andy Goodman, during a 2015 speech at San Francisco's Solid Conference. He describes it as a natural approach to user-interface interactions, which abandons the abruptness of the screen in favor of a more natural environment, through which users can communicate with devices using speech, motion, and even thought.

Backstory - Commute Guardian

#artificialintelligence

The'why' of the DepthAI (that satisfyingly rhymes) is we're actually shooting for a final product which we hope will save the lives of people who ride bikes, and help to make bike commuting possible again for many. What we envisioned is a technology-equivalent of a person riding backwards on your bike holding a fog horn and an ambulance-LED strip, who would tap you on the shoulder when they noticed a distracted driver, and would use the LED strip and the horn judiciously to get the attention of distracted drivers - to get them to swerve out of the way. In working towards solving this problem, we discovered there was no solution on the market for the real-time situational awareness needed to accomplish this. So we decided to make it. In doing that, we realized how useful such an embeddable device would be across so many industries, and decided to build it as a platform not only for ourselves, but also for anyone else who could benefit from this real-time object localization (what objects are, and where they are in the physical world). It's the platform we will use to develop Commute Guardian (and other applications), and we hope it will be equally useful to you in your prototypes and products.


Eastern India's First Robot Restaurant Opens in Odisha - Robot News

#artificialintelligence

Robot restaurants have been popping up all over the globe. While most are located in China and Japan, India has also been getting in on the action. We recently reported on a restaurant in Kerala turning to bots to bring in customers. Now the eastern part of the country is getting its own robot restaurant. It features two humanoid servers named Champa and Chameli.

New dating app blurs out photos of potential matches to encourage users to not focus on looks

Daily Mail - Science & tech

A new dating app will keep the photos of potential matches blurred out to encourage users to focus less on appearances. Called Smore, and co-developed by former Chappy executive Adam Cohen Aslatei, the app was designed to encourage people to focus more on personality and common interests than kneejerk reactions to a person's looks. The app will send users five suggested matches each day, but before users can see the unblurred version of the other person's photos, they'll have to first go through the rest of their profile. Smore will give free users five suggested matches each day, but they won't be able to see a clear photo of their potential match until they've tapped on a number of icons that person has picked to indicate their interests and personality The profiles are mainly composed from emoji-centric tiles that indicate a person's interests and background. These including listing your education background, current mood status, astrological sign, turn ons, deal breakers, and general interests.
