AWS Announces Five New Machine Learning Services That Reinvent and Improve Everyday Enterprise Tasks – With No Machine Learning Experience Required

#artificialintelligence

AWS introduced new services that use AI to allow more developers to apply machine learning to create better end user experiences, including new machine learning-powered enterprise search, code reviews and profiling, fraud detection, medical transcription, and human review of AI predictions. Machine learning continues to grow at a rapid clip, and today there are tens of thousands of customers doing machine learning on AWS (twice as many as the next largest cloud provider), including many customers that opt to use AWS's fully managed AI Services like Alfresco, Bayer Crop Science, Cerner, CJ Cox Automotive, C-SPAN, Deloitte, Domino's, Emirates NBD, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, FICO, FINRA, Gallup, Kelley Blue Book, Kia, Mainichi Newspapers Co, NASA, PricewaterhouseCoopers, White House Historical Association, and Zola. In the past year, AWS has introduced several new fully managed AI Services like Amazon Personalize and Amazon Forecast that allow customers to benefit from the same personalization and forecasting machine learning technology used by Amazon's consumer business to power its award-winning customer experiences. AWS customers are interested in learning from Amazon's vast experience using machine learning at scale to improve operations and deliver better customer experiences, without needing to train, tune, and deploy their own custom machine learning models. Today, AWS is announcing five new AI services that build upon Amazon's rich experience with machine learning, and allow organizations of all sizes across all industries to adopt machine learning in their enterprises – with no machine learning experience required. Despite many attempts over many years, internal search remains a vexing problem for today's enterprises, and most employees still frequently struggle to find the information they need. Organizations have vast amounts of unstructured text data, much of it incredibly useful if it can be discovered, stored in many formats and spread across different data sources (e.g.

Arterys launches the first viewer-based AI Marketplace for medical imaging, fueling open innovation

#artificialintelligence

Arterys has invested more than $50M and over seven years of development into building its proprietary internet platform and clinical-grade web viewer to take diagnostic imaging online. After building its own clinical AI applications, Arterys is making its platform available to a growing global community of AI innovators. Unlike others, the Arterys Marketplace is available to all -- meaning anyone can share their AI models via a simple URL, and anyone on the Arterys Marketplace can try it on their own medical images. Arterys invites all developers to share their content on the Arterys Marketplace, regardless of where in the world or what stage of development they're in (research or regulated AI apps).

Are Walmart's Robots a Threat to Its Workforce? The Motley Fool

#artificialintelligence

Walmart (NYSE:WMT) has gone out of its way to promote its new in-store robots as tools that will free up its employees to do more tasks that involve interacting with customers, rather than as machines that will simply be taking people's jobs. It's a valid spin, to a point, but as the chain automates more functions, one has to wonder how long it will be before it decides it doesn't need quite so many people after all. For now, though, that's a question the retailer wants to sidestep; the most recent press release on the subject was focused on how useful robots can be to its employees. "Every hero needs a sidekick, and some of the best have been automated. Think R2D2, Optimus Prime, and Robot from Lost in Space. Just like Will Robinson and Luke Skywalker, having the right kind of support helps our associates succeed at their jobs," wrote Elizabeth Walker from Walmart Corporate Affairs.

The Japan Times

Mizuho Securities Co. aims to increase the balance of individual customer assets under its management by 1.5-fold to ¥60 trillion in 10 years, its president and chief executive officer, Koichi Iida, said in a recent interview. The Mizuho Financial Group Inc. unit will focus on demand from working generations for the formation of assets in an effort to achieve the goal, Iida said. The company will enhance collaboration with Mizuho Bank, another Mizuho Financial unit, to encourage customers to transfer some of their bank deposits to investment trusts and other financial products, he said. "The key is whether we will be able to make offers suitable for individuals' life plans," Iida said.
