The B Side Of Artificial Intelligence, Around The Macho Algorithm
The social gaps of the analog world are also digitized at the hands of artificial intelligence (AI), as this technology often works with biased data on gender issues, and the solution to purging them is near, as consulted by EFE. Doing so also through the workings and legal imperative of AI to improve, according to experts. Harvard University researcher Alexandra Przegalinska is convinced that, once they thoroughly examine artificial intelligence, public authorities "will immediately see that perhaps there may be a certain abuse of power along with its potential." In this sense, she celebrates the pioneering legislation that the European Commission has proposed, as "it considers AI from a risk perspective", according to the professor attending the Women's Leadership School organized by the Chinese technology company Huawei. After, and which brought young talents from all over Europe together in Prague this week.
SpaceWERX explores machine learning for on-orbit servicing, manufacturing
The Space Force's innovation arm, SpaceWERX, has tapped Wallaroo Labs to explore and demonstrate how machine learning models can be deployed to advance multiple efforts associated with on-orbit servicing, assembly, and manufacturing (OSAM) missions for the newest U.S. military branch. The company was selected for a Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project to help the Space Force fully unleash machine learning within its OSAM-aligned production environments, according to an announcement published Tuesday. OSAM enables the building or repair of systems and components at the operational edge, on orbit. While predictive algorithms to support such processes can be built virtually anywhere on Earth, operationalizing those machine learning models in space is necessary to maximize their value. "The whole point of this for them is to get to outcomes faster across a whole range of use cases," Wallaroo CEO and founder Vid Jain told FedScoop in an interview on Monday prior to the announcement.
Submarine Warfare & Artificial Intelligence
April 2016, Sea Hunter was launched by the American Navy mentored by DARPA (Defence Advance Research Project Agency) a 40-meter unmanned and completely autonomous warship designed for the anti-submarine warfare. The entire manoeuvre and navigation of Sea Hunter was controlled by the artificial intelligence with zero-crew size onboard. After five years in April 2021 another technological miracle was designed by the MSubs for the British Naval Power. It was debuted as UUVs (Unmanned Underwater Vehicles), which is the exclusive research prototype for XLUUV (Extra Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicle). The fabrication motivation is to control XLUUV up to 3000 miles from the command centre for three-month duration.

Exo acquires Medo AI to improve ultrasound imaging
Redwood City, California-based Exo intends to integrate Medo's proprietary Sweep AI technology into its ultrasound platform to make the imaging modality more accessible to a wider range of caregivers. No financial terms for the acquisition were disclosed. According to a news release, Canada-based Medo's ultrasound AI technology radically lowers the expertise required to diagnose common and critical conditions through automated image acquisition and interpretation, giving non-experts the ability to conduct high-quality exams quickly and accurately. The company brings with it two FDA-cleared AI algorithms, as well as more in development, plus access to an extensive library of millions of ultrasound images and longitudinal health data to speed up point-of-care ultrasound adoption across the healthcare system, potentially expanding early disease detection and accelerating the path to treatment. Medo also holds strong partnerships across health systems worldwide, Exo said, including top institutions in Asia and Canada that can help to enable clinical validation and adoption.
China Sent 'Twin-Tailed Scorpion' Drone To Taiwan's Coast Amid Island's War Drills
Amid Taiwan's annual Han Kuang war games, a Chinese Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) was spotted off the island's east coast Monday. The UAV, a reconnaissance and strike vehicle, is dubbed the "Twin-Tailed Scorpion." The "Twin-Tailed Scorpion" reportedly flew from the East China Sea area through the Miyako Strait between the Japanese islands of Okinawa and Miyakojima, a statement issued by the Japanese Defense Ministry said. After entering the Pacific Ocean, the UAV turned southwest and flew past the Sakishima Islands. The UAV was then seen heading northwest toward the Bashi Channel and northeastern Taiwan, its last reported position was off the coast of Taiwan's Hualien County, deep inside the eastern sector of Taiwan's ADIZ, reported Taiwan News.
China sends drone on solo mission near key Okinawan waterway for first time
China has for the first time sent a TB001 combat and reconnaissance drone on a solo mission through Okinawa Prefecture's Miyako Strait, traveling from the East China Sea into the Pacific near Taiwan, according to the Japanese Defense Ministry. The flight of the drone, which has a maximum range of 6,000 kilometers and can carry missiles and precision guided bombs, occurred Monday from the morning through the afternoon. The Defense Ministry said it scrambled fighter jets to monitor the drone, which did not violate the country's territorial airspace.

China's Jaka Robotics fueled by Saudi Arabia's Prosperity7 in global push โ TechCrunch
Jaka Robotics, a Chinese startup that makes collaborative robots, has just pulled in a hefty Series D funding round of over $150 million from a lineup of heavyweight investors to help it expand globally. The round is led by Singapore's sovereign wealth fund Temasek, TrueLight Capital, Softbank Vision Fund II, and Prosperity7 Ventures, a growth fund under Aramco Ventures, which is an investment subsidiary of Saudi Arabia's state oil firm Aramco. Collaborative robots, known as "cobots", are meant to work alongside humans rather than in isolation. Based out of Shanghai and Beijing, Jaka's robotic arms can augment humans in a range of tasks, from assembling electronic parts, pouring from a coffee machine to packaging smartphones. Jaka plans to spend its fresh funding on R&D and global expansion, which makes Prosperity7's investment all the more significant.
A 75-Year-Old Harvard Grad Is Propelling China's AI Ambitions
At a time when the US and China are divided on everything from economics to human rights, artificial intelligence is still a point of particular friction. With the potential to revolutionize everything from food production and health care to financial markets and surveillance, it's a technology that sparks both optimism and paranoia. One of the field's most influential figures is Andrew Chi-Chih Yao, whose education and professional life have straddled the world's two biggest economies. China-born and Harvard-trained, Yao is his country's only recipient of the Turing Award, computer science's equivalent of a Nobel Prize. After almost 40 years in the US, he returned to China in 2004.
