Facebook's fight against fake news, hoaxes, and spammers will never be over for good, but the company is doing its best to keep up the pressure on bad actors on its network. Today, it announced a number of new measures, including using machine learning to spot hoax articles that are copied and pasted by different accounts. This isn't the first time Facebook has announced it's using AI to target misleading content, and it's clear that the company exaggerates AI's power to sort good content from bad. But it does seem to be taking small, sensible steps in applying the technology. Machine learning can't automatically fact-check stories or make nuanced judgments about misleading headlines, but it can recognize easily identifiable signals that suggest an account is up to no good.

Again let me say what you think about the course (articles and videos) and how it should be improved!

Ignore the scary "human vs. robots" headlines. The complex reality is actually one of mutual growth and gradual change. Just over the horizon awaits an army of robots, standing motionless in endless columns, their metal heads gleaming in the moonlight. When the signal comes, they will march forward into our offices and factories, shove us out of our desks and workstations, and take our jobs from us. That's what it feels when you read the news.

SAS Visual Text Analytics uses intelligent algorithms and natural language processing (NLP) techniques to automatically extract relationships and patterns within unstructured data, therefore eliminating the need for manual analysis. The NLP tools help users in sentiment analysis, speech to text, natural language understanding and natural language generation. The Forrester report states: "SAS's brand speaks for itself as a leader in advanced analytics; as a result, SAS Visual Text Analytics comes with a number of machine learning models. Users can also leverage other capabilities of the platform, such as forecasting and optimization, to deliver predictive, prescriptive, and actionable analytics."

In the beginning, there was a dial. Then man invented the television remote so he wouldn't have to get off the sofa. Then remote controls multiplied . . . A big step toward the hands-free couch potato arrives Thursday. The $120 Fire TV Cube is the first device to give Amazon.com's

When you consider the popularity of Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa and the company's Fire TV streamers, it was really just a matter of time before the folks at the Everything Store decided to mash them up. In fact, Amazon already has, sort of: The company started down that path last year by giving Echo devices the ability to pass commands along to a Fire TV or Fire TV Stick. With the new Fire TV Cube, though, Amazon is trying to break down the wall between Alexa and the content you want to see altogether. Now, we've only had our Fire TV Cube for about two days, and that's just not enough time to really put the streaming box through its paces -- instead, read on for our first impressions about Amazon's new hardware and the virtual assistant that will ultimately make or break it. The Fire TV Cube itself is a glossy black box that, aside from the blue ring that lights up when Alexa is listening to you, looks about as nondescript as a bit of home theater kit can be.

Recently members of our development team here at Twipe attended the AWS Summit in Berlin and came back with new insights on machine learning. Coupled with the call from Benedict Evans at GEN Summit to change the way we talk about artificial intelligence, it's time to make sure we're all on the same page when it comes to AI, ML, and all the other important acronyms you hear in every conversation about the future of news these days.

If you're thinking of buying the Amazon Fire TV Cube because you're delighted by the idea of having an Amazon Echo and a Fire TV device mashed into one device, let me stop you right there. Alexa on a TV interface demands a level of conversation like no other streaming TV product I've used before. After a few nights of using the Cube, I began to hate the sound of my own voice. Maybe you'll still be delighted by the Cube at first if you buy one. Maybe if you have kids, they'll love shouting at the TV to get their cartoon fix. But there's a good chance you'll end up doing what I did: going back to the fuddy-duddy Fire TV remote, because that's the easiest way to scroll through multiple media options.

Shortly after setting up Amazon's Fire TV Cube streaming box, I temporarily lost the remote control. In theory, this shouldn't have been a problem. Amazon says its $120 Fire TV Cube is primarily a hands-free device that you can control with Alexa voice commands, and I knew Alexa would at least let me turn on the TV, control the volume, and start watching video in apps like Amazon Prime Video and PlayStation Vue without needing the remote. Still, it didn't take long with my Fire TV Cube review unit to uncover voice control's many blind spots. While the hardware does a fine job of recognizing voice commands, Alexa often fails at searching for content, is inconsistent at controlling video playback, and doesn't yet work with a large number of apps.
