If anyone would like to meet us to any of these events, please let me know.

Help is at hand for troops on the front lines thanks to palm-sized drones developed by the the Ministry of Defence (MOD). British Army plans will see 200 miniature drones'smaller than a human hand' deployed on the battlefield to provide soldiers with an eye in the sky. These mini-drones, dubbed Black Hornet, could take over the life-threatening surveillance and reconnaissance duties currently undertaken by soldiers. The MOD is investing £66million ($87m) in robotic systems, which will also include automated supply delivery drones. TheBlack Hornet3 is the world's smallest tactical nano UAV (unmanned Aerial vehicle) and is used by the British military on the front line.

The accent, emotion, and intonation are all mine. But somehow I now sound like a youngish woman with a high-pitched voice. My feminine "voice skin" was created by Modulate.ai, The firm uses machine learning to copy, model, and manipulate the properties of voice in a powerful new way. The technology goes far beyond the simple voice filters that can let you sound like Kylo Ren.

According to a new report by Infosys, cybersecurity, big data, and Artificial Intelligence are among the world's best technologies for medical and biotechnology companies. The report, Digital Outlook: Healthcare Industry, also shows that the three most widely used digital technologies by health companies are cybersecurity (77 percent), AI (59 percent), and big data analytics (72 percent). In the survey, companies from seven countries participated. It is historical nature that the value of the data directly affects the capacity to treat patients safely and securely and takes longer to rebuild, and does not just contain clinical information, such as personal, financial, and demographic data that allows it to be used for broader identity theft. Globally, the health sector thrives at a rapid pace, which is a good indication.

Last year, Chinese police arrested a man at a pop concert after he was flagged as a criminal suspect by a facial recognition system installed at the venue. The software that called the cops was developed by Shanghai startup Yitu Tech. It was marketed with a stamp of approval from the US government. Yitu is a top performer on a testing program run by the National Institute of Standards and Technology that's vital to the fast-growing facial recognition industry. More than 60 companies took part in the most recent rounds of testing.

The Dutch government is running into problems with its autonomous vehicle plans; namely, the automobiles can't understand cyclists. According to'I Amsterdam', there are 881,000 bikes in Amsterdam alone. That's a big problem if driverless cars are unable to understand and react to cyclists. Under the Dutch government's plans, 100 driverless trucks would drive the so-called'tulip corridors' at night. A human driver would lead a pack of autonomous vehicles on major roads crossing neighbouring countries including Germany and Belgium.

We cannot succeed alone; this undertaking requires the skill and commitment of those in government, close collaboration with academia and non-traditional centers of innovation in the commercial sector, and strong cohesion among international allies and partners. We must learn from others to help us achieve the fullest understanding of the potential of AI, and we must lead in responsibly developing and using these powerful technologies, in accordance with the law and our values. Perhaps the late Stephen Hawking said it best: "Unless we learn how to prepare for, and avoid, the potential risks, AI could be the worst event in the history of our civilization." Or as the Terminator might say: "Hasta la vista, baby."

TOKYO - Toyota is teaming up with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency on a planned mission to the moon, with the auto giant expected to develop a lunar rover, officials and local media said Wednesday. It will be the car manufacturer's first full-fledged entry into space exploration, after the company jointly developed a small robot sent to the International Space Station. "We are planning to cooperate with Toyota in an exploration mission to the moon," said a spokesman with JAXA. Details will be announced by JAXA and Toyota on Tuesday next week when the space agency hosts a symposium in Tokyo, the spokesman said. Toyota also confirmed plans to announce a joint project with JAXA "on mobility and a space probe" but declined to comment further.

Could a program detect potential terrorists by reading their facial expressions and behavior? This was the hypothesis put to the test by the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in 2003, as it began testing a new surveillance program called the Screening of Passengers by Observation Techniques program, or Spot for short. While developing the program, they consulted Paul Ekman, emeritus professor of psychology at the University of California, San Francisco. Decades earlier, Ekman had developed a method to identify minute facial expressions and map them on to corresponding emotions. This method was used to train "behavior detection officers" to scan faces for signs of deception.

Uber will not be held criminally liable in the fatal crash last year in Tempe, Arizona, in which a self-driving vehicle struck and killed a pedestrian, a county prosecutor announced Tuesday. Yavapai County Attorney Sheila Polk said Uber won't face criminal charges in the March 2018 crash -- believed to be the first fatality in the U.S. involving a self-driving vehicle. Polk said her office concluded that video of the crash likely didn't accurately depict the collision and recommended that Tempe police seek more evidence. DRIVER IN FATAL SELF-DRIVING UBER CRASH WAS WATCHING'THE VOICE,' INVESTIGATORS SAY It's not known whether prosecutors are considering charges against the driver. Dashcam video released by the Tempe Police Department last year showed an interior view of Uber backup driver Rafael Vasquez in the moments before the crash.
