No-code AI solutions are helping more businesses to get started on their AI journeys than ever. AI News caught up with Stefano Somenzi, CTO at Athics, to get his thoughts on no-code AI and the development of virtual agents. AI News: Do you think "no-code" will help more businesses to begin their AI journeys? Stefano Somenzi: The real advantage of "no code" is not just the reduced effort required for businesses to get things done, it is also centered around changing the role of the user who will build the AI solution. "No code" means that the AI solution is built not by a data scientist but by the process owner.

Neurosurgeon Michael Fehlings specializes in complex spine surgery and is the Vice Chair Research for the Department of Surgery at the University of Toronto and Co-Director of the University of Toronto Spine Program. We caught up with him to learn more about where the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in neurosurgery could be heading in the future. What inspired you to specialize in neuroscience and spinal cord injuries? I first became intrigued with serious disorders of the brain because my grandfather sustained multiple strokes. I saw the impact that brain disease had on him and it robbed him of his language. When I went to medical school I was fascinated with brain disorders and I felt that neurosurgery provided practical solutions to help people like my grandfather.

I've always been a bit frazzled by what it takes to keep up a home especially when I like mine to be as close to sterile as possible. But maintaining a minimalist, clean look isn't easy when you work a full-time job and have other demands outside of caring for your home.

So now, without any further ado let's dive into the how the self-driving car industry looked like 15–20 years ago! Unless you are living under a rock, you probably know that the self-driving car industry has become one of the hottest industries in the last 5–10 years. Some of the world's biggest companies like Google, Tesla, GM are working on self-driving cars. These companies have spent more than 120 billion dollars on self-driving car R&D just in 2020 alone! The CEOs of these companies are saying that they are on the verge of creating the driverless cars that we all imagine when we think about our future cities(the ones where you can just fall asleep in to get the extra hour of sleep).

What do you do for a living? How do you explain your job to people outside of your field? I work as an Engineering Manager for the Machine Learning team on the Identity product at Stripe. For those outside tech, I define machine learning as the technology that allows computers to look at data and learn patterns from it which in turn helps us make predictions when the computer sees new data in the future. My team is responsible for building machine learning systems and models for Stripe's new identity product.

GoGuardian is a software company that makes, essentially, spyware: software that helps teachers and schools block and monitor what kids are doing online. When a student is using a school-issued Chromebook that has GoGuardian on it, the teacher can see just about everything they're doing. These technologies have been embraced by teachers and state Departments of Education alike, but students are less enthralled with having their online lives constantly surveilled. On Friday's episode of What Next: TBD, I spoke with Priya Anand, a tech reporter for Bloomberg who wrote a story on GoGuardian, about the rise of the school surveillance state and the implications of this technology for student's mental health and privacy. Lizzie O'Leary: You wrote for Bloomberg about Pekin Community High School in Illinois, which has been using GoGuardian for three years.
