"Sunspring," a movie that has been entirely written by algorithm, debuted on the website Ars Technica recently. The movie has been under the spotlight as the complete story of it has been written by artificial intelligence instead of normal human screenwriters. "Sunspring" is a short science fiction film about three people who are in a surrealistic future, seemingly a space station. Initially, the movie looks like a love triangle between three lead characters – H (portrayed by "Silicon Valeey's Thomas Middleditch), who is wearing a gleaming gold jacket, H2 (played by Elisabeth Gray) who is operating the computers, and C (Humphrey Ker) who declares that he has to "go to the skull" as he puts his face in a bunch of green lights. Though the movie gives a vibe of a typical sci-fi B-movie, it is unlike any of the other Hollywood science fiction movies as the entire script of the movie has been done by AI.

Microsoft kicks off a busy Monday on the first full day of E3 2016. With the Xbox One trailing Sony's PS4 in terms of sales, Microsoft needs to get players excited about the console. There could be a slimmer version of the Xbox One, along with exclusive games. The Microsoft E3 2016 live stream begins Monday at 9 a.m. The big rumor ahead of E3 2016 surrounded a slim version of the current Xbox One with double the memory.

Columnist Jennifer Jolly shares tech to help you create the ideal smart home. We're not living in a Jetsons future quite yet -- I'll keep waiting for a do-it-all robot that can knock out the laundry, scrub the dishes and then rub my feet at the end of the day -- but today's smart home tech revolution is growing faster than you can say "Siri, what's a'tiny home'?" According to a recent survey, nearly half of all Americans either already own smart home technology now or plan to invest in it in this year. With prices dropping and setup getting simpler, now's a great time to give your house an IQ upgrade. Remember when phones just made calls and ringtones sounded like an angry hamster?

Microsoft is hosting a press conference Monday ahead of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, where it's widely expected to reveal a new model of its video game console. We'll have live updates from the event starting at 12:30 p.m. ET. On Sunday, images leaked online showing a slimmer Xbox One in white. Reports claim the new console will be 40% slimmer than the current Xbox. Meanwhile, there's a remote possibility Microsoft makes a deeper push into virtual reality.

File-encrypting ransomware programs have become one of the biggest threats to corporate networks worldwide and are constantly evolving by adding increasingly sophisticated detection-evasion and propagation techniques. In a world where any self-respecting malware author makes sure that his creations bypass antivirus detection before releasing them, enterprise security teams are forced to focus on improving their response times to infections rather than trying to prevent them all, which is likely to be a losing game. Exabeam, a provider of user and entity behavior analytics, believes that machine-learning algorithms can significantly improve ransomware detection and reaction time, preventing such programs from spreading inside the network and affecting a larger number of systems. Because the decryption price asked by ransomware authors is calculated per system, isolating affected computers as soon as possible is critical. Only last week the University of Calgary announced that it paid 20,000 Canadian dollars (around US 15,600) to ransomware authors to get the decryption keys for multiple systems.

Science fiction author Isaac Asimov came up with the three'laws' of robotics in a story he published in 1942. The first of these laws says a robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Now artist and roboticist Alexander Reben has developed the first robot that breaks this rule, by hurting humans in an unpredictable way. Artist and roboticist Alexander Reben claims he has developed the first robot (pictured) that hurts humans autonomously and in an unpredictable way. It is a'near certainty' that a major technological disaster will threaten humanity in the next 1,000 to 10,000 years.

It seems almost comical to think that artificial intelligence and machine learning are becoming, or rather have become, full-blown buzzwords. First of all, according to the annals of science fiction literature, we should have already invented a smarter-than-human AI by now, and according to "Terminator," we're 19 years overdue for a giant, AI-based nuclear annihilation of the human race. I prefer the 1970 movie, "Colossus: The Forbin Project," a film that does not appreciate the premise that the United States could, alone, create a computer smart enough to take over the world. Colossus, you see, required the help of its Soviet counterpart. The world of AI is far more scientific and mundane than this, however. Its history is littered with startups, hardware firms and software projects that were often just as much a product of the times as they were products of machine-learning advances.

It is far from being the apocalyptic extermination of the human race depicted in films like the Terminator, but it seems the rise of the machines has begun. Robots are starting to perform a growing number jobs of that have traditionally been filled by humans – such as security patrols, courier deliveries and room service in hotels. These include five-feet tall security bots that are patrolling shopping centres and office buildings in California, using a range of sensors to look for anything suspicious. Robots are starting to perform roles that have traditionally been performed by humans. While there are many who fear robots are on the verge of stealing our jobs, it seems they have a weak spot - flat packed furniture.

You've probably noticed a spike in articles about AI in your newsfeeds lately. It's a topic that's picking up steam, particularly as our cars, fitness monitors, search engines - so many things around us - become more intelligent. As Artificial Intelligence becomes more accessible and more prominent in our daily lives, more and more questions arise around the topic -- especially if AI behaves unexpectedly. That is why I recently penned an article entitled, "How can we control intelligent systems no one fully understands?" The widespread conversations about AI took a new turn in March 2016 when Microsoft launched, then quickly unplugged, Tay, its artificial intelligence chat robot.

Apple will use its annual conference to announce plans to take on Google and Facebook in the fast-growing artificial intelligence arena, experts believe. The technology giant will also reveal a new version of its iOS software that powers the iPhone and iPad, as well as updating its MacBook laptop line, at its WWDC (worldwide developers conference) event. The conference in San Francisco on Monday will see the technology company showcase iOS 10, the latest version of the operating system that runs on iPhone and iPad. The software's virtual, voice-activated personal assistant Siri is expected to be expanded so that it works in a wider range of apps. Both Google and Facebook have already announced greater focus on their artificial intelligence products this year, with Google improving its Google Now software, while Facebook is introducing intelligent "bots" to Messenger that can understand requests and questions from users.
