UAE, Israeli educational institutions sign artificial intelligence MoU: WAM

#artificialintelligence

DUBAI (Reuters) - The United Arab Emirates' Mohamed Bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence and Israel's Weizmann Institute of Science have agreed to work together, UAE state news agency WAM said on Sunday. The memorandum of understanding follows the UAE's decision a month ago to normalize relations with Israel. Both countries have said they hope normalised ties will bring economic and technological benefits. The MoU is the first signed between Israeli and UAE higher education bodies, WAM said, intending to "advance the development and use of artificial intelligence as a tool for progress". Spheres of possible collaboration include academic exchanges, conferences, sharing computing resources and the establishment of a joint virtual institute for artificial intelligence, WAM said.

Google Is Using Machine Learning Techniques To Better Recognize Breaking News, And Its AI Systems Now Take Minutes To Detect Breaking News

#artificialintelligence

Yesterday, Google wrote in a blog post that the company is using Artificial Intelligence and machine learning techniques to more quickly recognize breaking news around various crises such as natural disasters. According to Google's VP of search Pandu Nayak, the AI systems of Google now take minutes to recognize breaking stories. In comparison, the detection time of its systems was up to 40 minutes only a few years ago. Nayak wrote in the post that the company has improved its system to automatically recognize breaking news around crisis moments and make sure that the company is returning the most authentic information available. Likely, quicker breaking news detection will become more critical as the 2020 United States Presidential Election day nears and natural disasters across the globe unfold.


Jeannie Mai can't wait to 'reconnect' with fans on 'Dancing with the Stars'

FOX News

The 41-year-old host and TV personality recently told Fox News, she's ready for a new challenge and the ABC reality competition series was the perfect fit. EXCLUSIVE: Jeannie Mai is ready to twirl across the ballroom floor on the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars." The 41-year-old host and TV personality recently told Fox News she's ready for a new challenge and the ABC reality competition series was the perfect fit. "I'm being thrown across the dance floor, which was my request, by the way," she joked. "And I also want to twirl underneath legs!" Mai said joining the cast for Season 29 was like crossing something off her wish list but, more importantly: "I want to just reconnect with people," she said.


The future of events is uncertain. 'Fortnite' is forging ahead anyway.

Washington Post - Technology News

The Los Angeles studio in which Pike and others will perform -- which will follow pandemic-related health precautions -- is an "XR," or "extended reality," set, which can create real-time graphics for a virtual environment cast on LED screens. So instead of the Zoom-from-home quality DJ sets that Party Royale hosted in the past, the Spotlight-produced events can feel more like a live production, using video assets from a concert tour or music video.


Council Post: Artificial Intelligence In PR: Is It Science Fiction?

#artificialintelligence

Mark Macias is the Founder of MACIAS PR, named 2017-2019 Strategic PR Firm of the Year and 2015-2017 Financial PR Firm of the Year. Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, so you knew it was only a matter of time before a PR agency tried to package it for public relations. But can AI help get stories in the news or is it just a new agency spin to stand out from the crowd? A few years ago, the co-founder of a major retail startup (think competitor to Amazon and Walmart) asked me why PR doesn't use AI for media strategy. He told me how AI was helping his startup sell shoes and clothes, predicting which products would be best sellers.


New machine learning-assisted method rapidly classifies quantum sources

#artificialintelligence

For quantum optical technologies to become more practical, there is a need for large-scale integration of quantum photonic circuits on chips. This integration calls for scaling up key building blocks of these circuits – sources of particles of light – produced by single quantum optical emitters. Purdue University engineers created a new machine learning-assisted method that could make quantum photonic circuit development more efficient by rapidly preselecting these solid-state quantum emitters. The work is published in the journal Advanced Quantum Technologies. Researchers around the world have been exploring different ways to fabricate identical quantum sources by "transplanting" nanostructures containing single quantum optical emitters into conventional photonic chips.
