SpaceX's new Crew Dragon capsule has arrived at the International Space Station, acing its second milestone in just over a day. No one was on board the capsule launched on Saturday on its first test flight, only an instrumented dummy. But the three station astronauts had front-row seats as the Dragon neatly docked on Sunday morning and became the first American-made, designed-for-crew spacecraft to pull up in eight years. If the six-day demo goes well, SpaceX could launch two astronauts this summer under NASA's commercial crew programme. Both astronauts were at SpaceX Mission Control in California, observing all the action.

SpaceX's new crew capsule arrived at the International Space Station on Sunday, acing its second milestone in just over a day. No one was aboard the Dragon capsule launched Saturday on its first test flight, only an instrumented dummy. But the three station astronauts had front-row seats as the sleek, white vessel neatly docked and became the first American-made, designed-for-crew spacecraft to pull up in eight years. TV cameras on Dragon as well as the space station provided stunning views of one another throughout the rendezvous. If the six-day demo goes well, SpaceX could launch two astronauts this summer under NASA's commercial crew program.

Will Roper, assistant secretary of the Air Force for acquisition, technology and logistics, is something like Q for the Defense Department. He formerly ran the Strategic Capabilities Office, a secretive military skunkworks designed to figure out how to fight future wars. While there, he helped design swarms of tiny unmanned drones; he helped create Project Maven; and he tried to partner the Defense Department with the videogame industry. Now his new job may be even harder: Making the Air Force acquisitions process efficient. He's going to be leading a pitch day for the Air Force this week in New York City, and he spoke with WIRED about that and also where he sees the future of military technology going--from AI to hypersonic weapons to space. Nicholas Thompson: You're launching a new system very soon to help get startups very quickly signed up to Air Force contracts. Tell me how it works and why you are doing it. Will Roper: We've got to be able to work with the entire industry base, and even our fastest agreements still take a couple of months to get nailed down. That's too long for a startup that needs cash flow quickly. And so we really worked hard to hack our system and we've gotten down to where we can do credit-card-based awards on a single day.

The entire wireless world descended on Barcelona this week for the annual Mobile World Congress. Amidst the fancy new gadgets like folding phones it is important we maintain perspective on the forthcoming transition to 5G. The convergence of big data, AI, and 5G brings benefits, but the societal costs may be steeper than at any time in the history of communications. On Page 19 of the National Security Strategy (NSS) there is a single line - "We will improve America's digital infrastructure by deploying a secure 5G Internet capability nationwide." This has been misinterpreted to mean we just wage war on Chinese telecom manufacturers.

The demonstration flight of America's new astronaut capsule will see it attempt to dock with the International Space Station (ISS). The Dragon vehicle, launched by California's SpaceX company on Saturday, is designed to make the attachment autonomously. It is the latest in a series of tests the capsule must pass in order to get approval from Nasa to transport people. All this particular mission is carrying is a test dummy and 90kg of supplies. The docking should occur at about 11:00 GMT.

In 2019 we live in a world where Deepfake videos and even images of people can be created by AI that are totally manufactured. Meanwhile OpenAI's GPT-2 is being hyped for its ability to write convincingly and deceptively. In this new world AI can mimic human content in a variety of ways while potentially being used by bad actors and state-sponsored propaganda campaigns to influence public sentiment in a variety of ways. In February 2019, we are witnessing an explosion of deception online. In an era when even Facebook refuses to be called a Media company, what exactly are deepfakes?

Artificial intelligence is a tool humanity is wielding with increasing recklessness. We say it's for our common good with machine learning hype equal to business profits. But what happens when we don't have the code of ethics, laws, government accountability, corporate transparency and capability of monitoring the space to be able to achieve AI regulation? Artificial intelligence regulation isn't just complex terrain, it's uncharted territory for an age that is passing the baton from human leadership to machine learning emergence, automation, robotic manufacturing and deep learning reliance. Artificial intelligence (AI) is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans.

Are you consciously or unconsciously aware of the fact that Artificial Intelligence is omnipresent? It is finely weaved in our day to day routine from phones to computer and tablets, every device embraces the technology in our surrounding. Even the rising trending craze for Netflix is also a gift of Artificial Intelligence, for sure. Therefore, it would not be an element surprise if we monitor the involvement of the Indian government in this sector. The Government of India is set to regulate Artificial Intelligence with a transparent set of guidelines for the procedure to develop and implement the AI technology, as confirmed by Minister of Commerce & Industry and Civil Aviation Suresh Prabhu.

The voice's slight accent and cadence suggest, without even looking up that it's the voice of a Black man.

Beyond Limits, a leading developer of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, today announced its CEO AJ Abdallat will be a key presenter at the annual Montgomery Summit in Santa Monica, California, March 6-7. Abdallat will present the company's breakthrough approach to AI (artificial intelligence) to Montgomery's global community of over 1,000 venture capitalists, innovators, and executive leaders. The presentation will showcase how Beyond Limits cognitive AI solutions go beyond conventional AI to solve complex business problems for the world's most demanding industries. Beyond Limits combines human knowledge with machine learning. Conventional "black box" approaches like machine learning, deep learning or neural networks cannot explain their reasoning.
