Moral reasoning is being modeled for robots, since they are expected to play an increasingly critical role in making judgment calls where human lives are at stake. With robots expected to play an increasingly critical role in making judgment calls where human lives are at stake, it is imperative to model moral reasoning in machines. "Right now the major challenge for even thinking about how robots might be able to understand moral norms is that we don't understand on the human side how humans represent and reason if possible with moral norms," notes Tufts University researcher Matthias Scheutz. Social psychologists at Brown University have started accumulating a list of words, concepts, and rules people use to discuss morality, and then they must determine how to quantify this vocabulary. The hypothesis of Brown's Bertram Malle is the human moral landscape might resemble a semantic network, in which a subset of norms is triggered in a specific context and becomes available to direct action, identify violations, and enable humans to make judgments.

Google TensorFlow is neural network software core to artificial intelligence technology. Google's artificial intelligence software, smart enough to help vanquish the world's top Go player and answer your email, is coming to your iPhone. On Monday, Google published an early version of TensorFlow (the 0.9 release candidate) that adds support for iOS, the software that powers Apple iPhones and iPads. TensorFlow is "neural network" software that lets computers process data in a way similar to our own brain cells, a key foundation to the artificial intelligence movement sweeping the computing industry. While TensorFlow won't give your iPhone an immediate IQ boost, its neural network capabilities will lead to more sophisticated apps later.

The Iranian regime has banned the sale of a video-game that gives players a first-person perspective of the 1979 Iranian revolution. "1979 Revolution: Black Friday", which was created by an Iranian-born game designer and his wife and released back in April to acclaim for its historically accurate depiction of the Iranian revolution, has been banned by officials in Tehran for being "Anti-Iranian" and "pro-American propaganda." Navid Khonsari -- a former Rockstar Games designer who helped develop the popular "Grand Theft Auto" series says they will look for another way to get the games to the masses. Officials in Tehran claim that the game is "anti-Iranian" and "pro-American propaganda." We are trying to combat the censorship," Khonsari tells FoxNews.com. We tried to portray a truthful account of what happened."

General Motors Co. Chief Executive Mary Barra on Tuesday said she believes self-driving vehicles should keep steering wheels, brakes and accelerators in them as the technology develops. "We think that having that capability when the steering wheel and the pedals are still in the vehicle is a very good way to demonstrate and prove the safety," Barra told reporters before the company's annual meeting at its Detroit headquarters. Alphabet Inc.'s Google has proposed doing away with the steering wheels in autonomous vehicles because once the technology is developed they may not need them. IHS Automotive on Tuesday issued a report that estimates that by 2035, there will be 21 million autonomous vehicles in the world. Barra also praised the company's record profit in 2015 and reiterated that the company will be at the forefront in the evolution of the auto industry toward autonomous vehicles and ride sharing.

Nasa has announced that it has found evidence of flowing water on Mars. Scientists have long speculated that Recurring Slope Lineae -- or dark patches -- on Mars were made up of briny water but the new findings prove that those patches are caused by liquid water, which it has established by finding hydrated salts. Several hundred camped outside the London store in Covent Garden. The 6s will have new features like a vastly improved camera and a pressure-sensitive "3D Touch" display

Car insurer Adrian Flux has launched what it claims to be the UK's first personal driverless car insurance policy. The policy is designed for consumers who already have driverless features in their cars, such as self-parking, or are thinking of buying a car with autopilot features. Fully self-driving cars are only expected to be on the road by 2020 at the earliest, when Volvo plans to launch such vehicles. Gerry Bucke, general manager at Adrian Flux, said: "We understand this driverless policy to be the first of its kind in the UK – and possibly the world... More than half of new cars sold last year featured autonomous safety technology such as self-parking or ABS, which effectively either take control or take decisions on behalf of the driver. And it's only going to continue. Driverless technology will become increasingly common in our cars over the next few years."

Archaeologists and doctors in Spain are have used 3D-scanning technology to peer beneath the bandages of four ancient mummies. The specimens of three Egyptians and one Guanche – the aboriginal people who lived in the Canary Islands – were taken from the National Archaeological Museum, in Madrid. By using the scanning technology, the experts hope to be able to find out more about how the individuals lived, what killed them and the funeral rituals they underwent when they were buried. Archaeologists in Spain have used 3D-scanning technology to analyse four sets of mummified remains. The specialist team hope to be able to find out more about how the individuals lived, what killed them and the funeral rituals they underwent when they were buried.

Nathan Sikes is the VP of products for Foxtailmarketing and focuses on researching and implementing practical SEO and digital marketing techniques. The concept of deep learning or deep structured learning has been a frequent topic of conversation in recent months because of the commitment and advancements of some of the world's largest and most prolific search companies. With organizations like Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Baidu (a Chinese search engine) buying into this technology, we are starting to see a huge acceleration of the applications and uses for this relatively new artificial intelligence (AI). The focus of this article targets the technology of deep learning and its influence on search engine optimization (SEO) in today's online world. Let's take a look at what deep learning is, some history and some of the major players who are using this AI to shape and improve the digital landscape around us.

With several new datasets uploaded to Datasets this month, we saw a great number of exceptional scripts created. In this month's blog featuring the May 2016 Scripts of the Week, you'll hear about four that the team selected for their quality insight and analysis including: Read on and find yourself motivated to fork any of these scripts and explore the authors' ideas further! I was reviewing the data in the competition and feeling a bit stuck on how to approach it. I have a background in earth observation/remote sensing using satellite and aerial data, but the contest goals are pretty unusual in this contest and the imagery is different from what I prefer to work with (multi- or hyper-spectral imagery). Given that I didn't have a clear approach or purpose in mind, I decided to just explore the data iteratively as a brainstorming process.

If someone asked you to define'intelligence,' how would you respond? The question elicits significantly different answers based on whom you ask. Ask people to define'artificial intelligence' and the conflicting answers only multiply. Not only are there multiple schools of thought within the field of AI, but the term itself stands on a word that we're still only beginning to understand. This was the elephant in the room at BootstrapLabs' Applied Artificial Intelligence Conference last week in San Francisco. Some speakers rejected the term AI altogether, and used a slew of replacements, while others couldn't get enough of it.
