How to remember the Japanese incarceration, 80 years later
Akemi Leung knew her grandfather had been incarcerated at Heart Mountain in Wyoming during World War II. But he never spoke much about it. Only when she read and watched a video of his testimony at a congressional commission hearing did she learn more about what he suffered as one of more than 120,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry forced to leave their homes and live in concentration camps. "I just knew him to be a quiet person who liked to observe more than talk," Leung said. "Seeing the testimony helped illustrate how he was a leader."
How Many Simultaneous Scandals Can Elon Musk Survive?
Elon Musk is having a terrible February. At the moment, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO is facing scrutiny from three different government agencies, an animal-cruelty scandal, a car recall, a failed satellite launch, and accusations of trivializing the Holocaust. This is the kind of pileup of scandals that it usually takes a resignation to resolve. But anyone who's followed Musk's career knows that even all these simultaneous firestorms are likely to leave the executive barely singed. On Feb. 9, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing filed a lawsuit against Tesla over alleged racial discrimination at its Fremont factory after receiving hundreds of complaints and conducting a 32-month investigation. The suit describes abominable treatment of Black workers at the factory, including an alleged practice of segregating them into areas that other employees referred to as "the plantation" and "the slave ship."
🇺🇸 Machine learning job: Senior Machine Learning Software Engineer at ColdQuanta (Madison, Wisconsin, United States)
Senior Machine Learning Software Engineer at ColdQuanta United States › Wisconsin › Madison (Posted Feb 18 2022) Salary 130k - 193k Job description ColdQuanta is developing a quantum computing platform utilizing a novel approach with neutral cold atoms. Our quantum computer, Hilbert, arranges individual atoms and generates complex electromagnetic fields to control their quantum state in order to run quantum circuits that our customers will use to discover drugs, optimize the power grid, and develop novel applications for quantum computing. We would like to apply techniques from advanced statistics and machine learning to a variety of problems including analyzing images of our atom array, running black box optimizations to keep our atoms cooled to a few μK, and maintaining gate fidelity by tuning the hundreds of thousands of variables that are used to generate laser and microwave pulses. Our software efforts are largely greenfield, and applicants should be comfortable delivering innovative solutions to novel and challenging problems. An ideal applicant will be able to work independently in exploring huge datasets to identify ways to improve our quantum computer and the software that makes it tick.
Three months later, 'Battlefield 2042' is paying the price for a very bad decision
In a statement to The Washington Post addressing reports of the town hall, EA Vice President of Communication, John Reseburg, characterized it as "an in-depth and very humble internal conversation about the recent Battlefield launch. It was about key learnings and actions we are taking, not blaming external factors." It is good that EA and Dice are assessing what went wrong around "Battlefield 2042" and that developers are working to improve it. But hopefully no one loses site of the biggest problem of all. The initial decision to patch up a flawed game after release -- particularly over the holiday season when developers traditionally take a needed respite -- shows zero respect for consumers. "Sell it, then fix it" is a recipe for disaster for any product, and that's exactly what was cooked up with "Battlefield 2042."

Unethical Use of Artificial Intelligence - Lasse Rouhiainen - International Keynote Speaker on Artificial Intelligence, Web3, Crypto, DAO
Even though artificial intelligence can bring about a substantial positive impact in many areas of our lives, AI's inappropriate and unethical use has become a big concern in recent years. During my investigation of artificial intelligence in business and in societies in the last five years, I have been negatively surprised by the quantity of wrong and unethical usage of AI worldwide. Several big technology companies have been involved in scandals by allowing wrong and unethical use of data and artificial intelligence in their platforms. The most well-known is the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Facebook gave access to sensitive user data of 87 million user to consultant firm Cambridge Analytica which used AI algorithms to micro-target their political ads in the 2016 US elections.
Using AI to fight Coronavirus
As scientists make strides in finding answers about COVID-19, artificial intelligence has aided one Michigan State University researcher and his team in finding answers about the new omicron variant. The MSU researchers report omicron and other variants are evolving increased infectivity and antibody resistance according to an artificial intelligence model. Therefore, new vaccines and antibody therapies are needed, the researchers say. Understanding how SARS-CoV-2 evolves is essential to predicting vaccine breakthrough and designing mutation-proof vaccines and monoclonal antibody treatments. In a recent study in American Chemical Society Infectious Diseases, Guowei Wei, professor in MSU's Departments of Mathematics as well as Electrical and Computer Engineering, and colleagues, analyzed almost 1.5 million SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences taken from people with COVID-19.
Sirona Medical Acquires Nines AI's algorithms to rebuild radiology's IT from the ground up – TechCrunch
Sirona Medical, a company developing an "operating system" for digital radiology, has acquired Nines– a company that has developed FDA-cleared analysis and triage algorithms. This acquisition comes during a somewhat shaky moment in AI-based radiology. But Sirona is betting this move proves out its thesis: to bring AI into the clinical workflow, we need to rebuild things from the ground up. To understand where Sirona and Nines fit together, think about the IT behind radiology as a layer cake. The first layer of that cake is made of medical image databases.
Clearview AI seeking to put 100b photos in facial recognition database
Clearview AI has announced it aims to put almost every human's face in its facial recognition database, making'almost everyone in the world will be identifiable' A controversial AI company has announced it aims to put an image of nearly every human face in its facial recognition database, making it possible for'almost everyone in the world [to] be identifiable.' In its latest report in December, facial recognition firm Clearview AI told investors that the company is currently collecting 100 billion photos of human faces for the unprecedented campaign, which will be stored in its dedicated database. The collection of images - approximately 14 photos for each of the 7 billion people on the entire planet, scraped from social media and other sources - would extensively bolster the company's extensive surveillance system, already the most elaborate of its kind. The American company headquartered in Manhattan further told investors that its'index of faces' has grown from 3 billion images to more than 10 billion since the start of 2020. The firm's technology has already been used by myriad law enforcement and government agencies around the world, helping police make thousands of arrests by aiding in various criminal investigations.
