Weak, stolen, or reused passwords are the #1 cause of data breaches and hacks. This is why it's essential for people and businesses to have a different password for every account--ensuring if one is breached other accounts remain secure. Yet research shows that password reuse is real; a recent Verizon study revealed nearly 70% of people admitted to reusing passwords. Password Changer seamlessly logs users into compatible websites, generates strong, unique passwords, then changes the passwords for those sites on the user's behalf in one-click. Now, Password Changer has been rebuilt from the ground up to improve its reliability and website coverage.

Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, May 13, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bespoke AI-driven predictive models have traditionally been expensive and normally have taken months to create and deploy, making them the exclusive domain of only the largest financial institutions.

European network of health innovators, EIT Health has today launched an AI report from its Think Tank, outlining the need for a post-pandemic technological transformation to strengthen EU health systems over the next decade. The'Healthcare Workforce and Organisational Transformation with AI' report identifies key focus areas that need to be addressed at an EU and national level, during the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to maximise the potential of AI and technology in healthcare. As life expectancy increases, healthcare systems face increasing demand, with patients having more complex needs, costs rising and the workforce struggling to meet demand. EIT Health predicts that without major structural and transformational change, healthcare systems will become unsustainable, and the European vision of universal healthcare will be threatened. Key recommendations from the report include improving collaboration and exchange of best practice across the EU, building on existing networks and infrastructures to support AI integration, improving education and skills, and developing value-based financial models that incorporates AI.

With Canadian infection rates recently breaking the 1 million mark and deaths topping 23,000 and counting, and the global infection rate reaching 132 million, with nearly 3 million deaths to date, intervention is critical. "By targeting human proteins necessary for the coronavirus lifecycle, we are developing therapeutic strategies applicable to future strains or variants" said Dr. Bo Wang of the Vector Institute. "Unlike high throughput screens, accurate AI predictions aimed at specific human-based, antiviral targets provided us with a risk-adjusted strategy to search for drug-repurposing opportunities using scientifically accurate experiments with high biological relevance." The discovery of capmatinib's antiviral activity is a shining example of the power of collaborative research programs. The Vector Institute team's graph convolutional network (GCN) identified possible human targets relevant to COVID-19, which fed directly into Cyclica's PolypharmDB - a database for finding repurposing opportunities, generated using Cyclica's deep learning approach MatchMaker.

Volkswagen will start testing its new autonomous vehicles in Germany this summer, the company announced Wednesday. The German automaker's electric ID Buzz vans will use hardware and software developed by Argo AI, a Pittsburgh-based startup that is backed by Ford and VW. The aim is to launch a commercial delivery and micro-transit service in Germany by 2025. Executives from VW and Argo convened a press conference this week to provide an update on their partnership, which was first announced in 2019 as an extension of VW's "global alliance" with Ford. And while much of what they discussed was already known, it did provide a closer look at the timeline for launching a revenue-generating service using VW's vehicles and Argo's autonomous technology.
