What can you learn from Microsoft and AWS' free machine learning courses?

#artificialintelligence

As you might have guessed, these courses aren't necessarily the best way for someone without a technical background to break into a career as a data scientist or machine learning engineer. From a career perspective, these courses seem to be most useful for allowing anyone who already has a degree in a technical subject, such as maths, computer science or engineering to specialise and build on their technical foundations.

Can artificial intelligence prevent the next Parkland shooting?

USATODAY - Tech Top Stories

Students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School walk through the Florida state Capitol in Tallahassee. Schools are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence-backed solutions to stop tragic acts of student violence such as the shooting at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, a year ago. Bark Technologies, Gaggle.Net, and Securly Inc. are three companies that employ AI and machine learning to scan student emails, texts, documents, and in some cases, social media activity. They look for warning signs of cyber bullying, sexting, drug and alcohol use, depression, and to flag students who may pose a violent risk not only to themselves, but classmates. When potential problems are found, and depending on the severity, school administrators, parents -- and under the most extreme cases -- law enforcement officials, are alerted.


No evidence playing violent video games leads to aggressive behaviour in teens, study finds

The Independent - Tech

Teenagers who play violent video games are no more prone to real world aggressive behaviour than their peers, according to UK researchers who say their negative effects have been overstated. Fears that gory games like Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty might make children think on-screen behaviours are acceptable have been a major concern for parents and policy makers for years. Last year President Donald Trump said violent games were "shaping young people's thoughts" in the wake of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school shooting in Parklands, Florida. But one of the most comprehensive studies to date, led by University of Oxford researchers, found no evidence of increased aggression among teens who had spent longer playing violent games in the past month. "The idea that violent video games drive real-world aggression is a popular one, but it hasn't tested very well over time," says lead researcher Professor Andrew Przybylski, director of research at the Oxford Internet Institute.

JANICE S. AIKINS Dr. Aikins received her Ph.D. in computer science from Stanford University in 1980. She is currently a research computer scientist at IBM's Palo Alto Scientific Center. She specializes in designing systems with an emphasis on the explicit representation of control knowledge in expert systems. ROBERT L. BLUM Dr. Blum received his M.D. from the University of California Medical School at San Francisco in 1973. From 1973 to 1976 he did an internship and residency in the Department of Internal Medicine at the Kaiser Foundation Hospital in Oakland, California, where he was chief resident in 1976.



How to build a countrywide AI strategy? Finland is turning its seniors into evangelists.

#artificialintelligence

In many ways, Hely Lyly is your typical grandma. She's retired, sings in a chorus, takes fitness classes, participates in a book club and spends a good chunk of her day taking care of her grandchildren. These days, though, Lyly, 68, has a new gig -- as an artificial intelligence evangelist. "AI is now my new hobby," Lyly said, chuckling. Lyly is one of nearly 100 senior volunteers mentoring their peers on the fundamentals of AI.


How AI could help you learn sign language

#artificialintelligence

Sign languages aren't easy to learn and are even harder to teach. They use not just hand gestures but also mouthings, facial expressions and body posture to communicate meaning. This complexity means professional teaching programs are still rare and often expensive. But this could all change soon, with a little help from artificial intelligence (AI). My colleagues and I are working on software for teaching yourself sign languages in an automated, intuitive way.


10 Roles For Artificial Intelligence In Education

#artificialintelligence

For decades, science fiction authors, futurists, and movie makers alike have been predicting the amazing (and sometimes catastrophic) changes that will arise with the advent of widespread artificial intelligence. So far, AI hasn't made any such crazy waves, and in many ways has quietly become ubiquitous in numerous aspects of our daily lives. From the intelligent sensors that help us take perfect pictures, to the automatic parking features in cars, to the sometimes frustrating personal assistants in smartphones, artificial intelligence of one kind of another is all around us, all the time. While we've yet to create self-aware robots like those that pepper popular movies like 2001: A Space Odyssey and Star Wars, we have made smart and often significant use of AI technology in a wide range of applications that, while not as mind-blowing as androids, still change our day-to-day lives. One place where artificial intelligence is poised to make big changes (and in some cases already is) is in education.
