'Red Dead Redemption 2' Release Date Rumors: Take-Two Open To Battle Royale
An alleged leak from earlier this week suggested that "Red Dead Redemption 2" will arrive with its own Battle Royale game mode. The CEO of Take-Two Interactive, the company that owns Rockstar and 2K Games, spoke recently during an earnings call and shared his thoughts on the success of Battle Royale in video games. Battle royale-style of competitive online multiplayer has become quite popular recently thanks to the success of games like "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" and "Fortnite: Battle Royale." Since that style of online gameplay is popular, it's now expected that other video game companies will simply follow suit. "I would just observe that someone else's success is really interesting and we are obviously informed by what our competitors do. But our goal is to be as innovative as possible," Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick said (via GameSpot).

RapidMiner reinvents automated machine learning to accelerate data science
"Automated machine learning promised data scientists a better, faster way to build models, but the reality never matched the hype," said Dr. Ingo Mierswa, founder and president of RapidMiner. When I looked closely at automated machine learning solutions, I found them to be black boxes. They restricted my ability as a data scientist to understand how the models worked and tune them when necessary. We built Auto Model on top of RapidMiner Studio to improve the productivity of data scientists without hiding the ability to understand how and why a model works. As data scientists need to tune or tweak models, they have the full power of the RapidMiner Studio visual workflow designer at their disposal." RapidMiner Auto Model accelerates the entire data science lifecycle using automated machine learning.

Investorideas.com - CognitiveScale and NBCUniversal Demonstrate the Power of #AI in Transforming TV Advertising
Newswire) CognitiveScale today announced a completed project with NBCUniversal using its artificial intelligence (AI) technology to transform the way NBCUniversal analyzes video to determine what makes a successful ad. The first-of-its-kind project resulted in valuable insights that empowers NBCUniversal to use AI to deliver new ad sales options and services to its clients. With the successful video project, CognitiveScale demonstrated how augmented intelligence can span all forms of data to deliver AI-powered technological innovations to increase everything from content creation and monetization to programming and customer retention to pricing and market share. Before now, media and entertainment companies had vast amounts of information contained within video, but had limited ways to derive actionable insights at scale from that data. Early promises of analytics for big data have fallen short, as often organizations do not know the right questions to ask of the data, let alone gather the types of actionable insights that can help them drive new services and improve customer offerings.
