How Hoxhunt successfully applied machine learning to security awareness, by Ira Winkler - Hoxhunt

#artificialintelligence

There are so many buzzwords and trends in the security awareness industry that it is hard to determine what is useful and what is a gimmick. Every vendor out there has some sort of promise that they have some special characteristic about their product that makes it a revolutionary improvement to your security awareness posture that no other product can accomplish. After reviewing the Hoxhunt solution, it is safe to say that they actually do provide something unique that can really move the needle with your organization's security awareness posture. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are typically buzzwords and technologies that vendors tout as making a product unique. The reality is that machine learning and AI can be useful, however, they are just underlying technologies.


Google unveils the world's largest publicly available machine learning hub

#artificialintelligence

Google I/O 2022, Google's largest developer conference, kicked off with a keynote speech from Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai. The keynote speech had major announcements including the launch of Pixel watch, updates on PaLM and LaMDA, advancements in AR and immersive technology etc. Let us look at the key highlights. "Recently we announced plans to invest USD 9.5 billion in data centers and offices across the US. One of our state-of-the-art data centers is in Mayes County, Oklahoma. I'm excited to announce that, there, we are launching the world's largest, publicly-available machine learning hub for our Google Cloud customers," Sundar Pichai said.

Exploiting symmetry in variational quantum machine learning

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Variational quantum machine learning is an extensively studied application of near-term quantum computers. The success of variational quantum learning models crucially depends on finding a suitable parametrization of the model that encodes an inductive bias relevant to the learning task. However, precious little is known about guiding principles for the construction of suitable parametrizations. In this work, we holistically explore when and how symmetries of the learning problem can be exploited to construct quantum learning models with outcomes invariant under the symmetry of the learning task. Building on tools from representation theory, we show how a standard gateset can be transformed into an equivariant gateset that respects the symmetries of the problem at hand through a process of gate symmetrization. We benchmark the proposed methods on two toy problems that feature a non-trivial symmetry and observe a substantial increase in generalization performance. As our tools can also be applied in a straightforward way to other variational problems with symmetric structure, we show how equivariant gatesets can be used in variational quantum eigensolvers.


Racing tiny cars using only Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

#artificialintelligence

Thirteen university students from across Canada are in Ottawa to put their artificial intelligence skills to the test. It's called the Amazon Web Services DeepRacer League, where small 1/18th scale cars are being trained to complete a racetrack as fast as possible, by themselves. "It has major components in order to do the autonomous driving," says Amanda Foo, DeepRacer Senior Technical Program Manager. They are driven by what is called reinforcement learning. "It's just like training a dog," Carleton University mechanical engineering student Masoud Karimi says.


How new-age tech courses and careers are redefining the future of jobs

#artificialintelligence

New-age careers like cloud reliability engineer, Artificicial Intelligence (AI) architect, malware analyst, digital transformation specialists and many others have taken the job market by storm. These choices have been fuelled by tech courses like Data Science, DevOps, Cloud Computing, AI and and Machine Learning, Cybersecurity resulting in a huge demand for online certifications from ed-tech platforms who have collaborated with distinguished educational institutions. But is this change here to stay and what is its impact? The online education market is expected to touch Rs 360 billion by 2024, up from Rs 39 billion, according to a recent report by data firm'Research and Markets.' With a futuristic approach, DevOps as a system encompasses everything from organization to culture, processes, and tools and its adoption is growing rapidly.


How To Structure Intent In Chatbots And Gather Useful Feedback

#artificialintelligence

I recently collaborated on several projects involving chatbots and had the opportunity to discuss with industry experts about the main difficulties that are often encountered in this type of project. While it is becoming easier and easier to build conversational assistants, it looks like there are some problems that emerge systematically as the chatbot grows, as a consequence of not having a proper intent architecture. In this article, I propose a way of designing intents with the goal of avoiding these bad symptoms. I'll deal primarily with chatbots whose input may be both free text or voice (and so intent classification is involved), and from multiple choice. The good news is that we can use both input modes in the same chatbot, using the best one on the right occasion.


Artificial Intelligence Computing Using Networks of Tiny Nanomagnets

#artificialintelligence

Researchers have demonstrated that artificial intelligence may be performed using small nanomagnets that interact like neurons in the brain. Researchers have shown it is possible to perform artificial intelligence using tiny nanomagnets that interact like neurons in the brain. The new technology, developed by a team led by Imperial College London researchers, could significantly reduce the energy cost of artificial intelligence (AI), which is currently doubling globally every 3.5 months. In a paper published today (May 5, 2022) in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, the international team has produced the first proof that networks of nanomagnets can be used to perform AI-like processing. The researchers showed nanomagnets can be used for'time-series prediction' tasks, such as predicting and regulating insulin levels in diabetic patients.


Deci deep-learning platform aims to ease AI application development

#artificialintelligence

We are excited to bring Transform 2022 back in-person July 19 and virtually July 20 - 28. Join AI and data leaders for insightful talks and exciting networking opportunities. Deci, a deep-learning software maker that uses AI templates designed to create AI-based applications, today launched v2.0 of its development platform, which it claims speeds the way for developers to build, optimize and deploy computer vision models. The term "speed" and AI application development are rarely used in the same sentence, but by using this platform, resulting AI models can be more swiftly prepared to run on any hardware and environment, including cloud, edge and mobile โ€“ with accuracy and high runtime performance, Deci CEO and co-founder Yonatan Geifman said in a media advisory. This is because much of the grunge work has been eliminated by the Deci series of DeciNet templates made available in the v2.0 platform. Using Deci, the company says, AI developers can achieve improved inference performance and efficiency to enable effective deployments on resource-constrained edge devices, maximize hardware use and reduce training and inference cost, Geifman said.
