Audio Network Limited, one of the world's largest independent creators and publishers of original high-quality music for use in film, television, advertising and digital media, continues its focus on technology by partnering with Musiio to explore the power of AI to improve customer service and delivery. This industry first will equip the global music company with an added interface to their existing search platform, to make their catalogue of over 170,000 tracks even more discoverable, whilst keeping the human touch that Audio Network has always been known for. Singapore-based Musiio provides a new way of "listening" to music at scale, easily searching up to one million tracks in under two seconds and supercharging a team of music researchers to increase their efficiency in responding to music briefs. "AI has been on the fringes of the music industry for the last few years, with talk of labels signing algorithms. But recently, more commercial and practical uses of this powerful computing technology have begun to surface," explained Musiio CEO and co-founder Hazel Savage.

After the great success of the Data Pioneers 2018 conference, we are going into the second round! Extracting knowledge from data and using it to build data products as well as optimize industrial processes and business becomes more and more present and is inevitable to ensure competitiveness. The Data Pioneers 2019 conference provides a regional platform for data scientists to exchange experiences on how to successfully use data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence in industry and business. The conference offers a day of inspiring talks and the possibility to network with like-minded data scientists, data engineers and team leaders. Data Pioneers is created because we truly believe that the Allgäu and the Vierländerregion Bodensee with the region around the Lake of Constance, Vorarlberg, St. Galler Rheintal, and Liechtenstein is an exciting area with established enterprises as well as aspiring startups working in a data-driven way or on data products.

Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com A New Jersey man posed as a member of the United States military on dating websites to bilk more than 30 women out of $2 million, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced. Rubbin Sarpong, 35, of Millville, was arrested Wednesday and charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Sarpong and his alleged conspirators "met and wooed the victims" on online dating sites, New Jersey U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito said.

Japanese engineers have developed a basketball robot built to take precision three-point shots. It only hit five out of eight on a test trial. It still beat its human competitors though, two basketball players who are likely to compete for the Japanese team in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics The robot's developers say CUE3 still has a long way to go.

'For species like chimpanzees, which have complex social lives and live for many years, getting snapshots of their behaviour from short-term field research can only tell us so much,' says Dan Schofield, researcher and DPhil student at Oxford University's Primate Models Lab, School of Anthropology. 'By harnessing the power of machine learning to unlock large video archives, it makes it feasible to measure behaviour over the long term, for example observing how the social interactions of a group change over several generations.' The computer model was trained using over 10 million images from Kyoto University's Primate Research Institute (PRI) video archive of wild chimpanzees in Guinea, West Africa. The new software is the first to continuously track and recognise individuals in a wide range of poses, performing with high accuracy in difficult conditions such as low lighting, poor image quality and motion blur. 'Access to this large video archive has allowed us to use cutting edge deep neural networks to train models at a scale that was previously not possible,' says Arsha Nagrani, co-author of the study and DPhil student at the Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford.

Up until now, 'deepfake' technology has remained bubbling under the surface, just out of a mainstream audience's reach. A new app called ZAO, available on iTunes in China, threatens that. The app has shot up the Chinese charts in the few days since its release, effectively making deepfakes mainstream. The results are equal parts impressive and terrifying. Here's what you need to know.

It was a rambling discussion in Shanghai last week that brought Artificial Intelligence into focus once again. In this case, it was the clearly jet-lagged Elon Musk, a technology legend and disruptor, and a very composed Jack Ma, the largest purveyor of goods over the internet. While the discussion rambled all over, from Pong to The Matrix to Mars, it was Musk shooting down Ma's optimism by saying that these could be "famous last words", that caught my attention. Musk has been consistently pessimistic about AI. In another famous joust, this time with Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, he tweeted that "his (Zuckerberg's) understanding of the subject is pretty limited".

Jack Ma, the co-founder and executive chairman of Alibaba, calls it Alibaba Intelligence and doesn't consider AI or artificial intelligence to be a threat. Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, thinks that that comment may just be Ma's legacy - his famous last words. Musk maintains that AI won't just be as smart as humans, but will be much smarter than smartest humans. Now these two gentlemen are the leaders of some of the world's most innovative companies and have a plethora of tools at their disposal to give them a glimpse into what the future might hold. If they can't seem to agree on how AI will impact our futures, imagine the plight of millions of mortals.

Researchers at Regenstrief Institute and Indiana University created decision models capable of predicting which patients might need more treatment for their depression than what their primary care provider can offer. The algorithms were specifically designed to provide information the clinician can act on and fit into existing clinical workflows. Depression is the most commonly occurring mental illness in the world. The World Health Organization estimates that it affects about 350 million people. Some people may be able to manage their depression on their own or with guidance from a primary care provider.
