Sky News will use AI to identify celebs at royal wedding
When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle say "I do" at their royal wedding, online viewers tuning into the Sky News stream will not have to guess the names of international celebrities and British nobility in attendance. Instead, the U.K. broadcaster will use artificial intelligence to identify famous guests as they make their grand entrances at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle -- displaying the invitees' names and details about how they are connected to the royal couple. Dubbed "Who's Who Live," Sky News announced the livestream service last week in partnership with Amazon.com and several data and engineering firms. As the 600 guests enter the chapel, Sky News will highlight notable attendees using Amazon Rekognition, a cloud-based technology that can recognize and compare faces in images and video using artificial intelligence. Along with identifying the wedding guests, the livestream service will also show facts about them, Sky News said, using captions and on-screen graphics through the company's app.
Google pushes artificial intelligence for upgraded news app
For its updated news application, Google is doubling down on the use of artificial intelligence as part of an effort to weed our disinformation and help users get viewpoints beyond their own "filter bubble." Google chief Sundar Pichai, who unveiled the updated Google News earlier this month, said the app now "surfaces the news you care about from trusted sources while still giving you a full range of perspectives on events." It marks Google's latest effort to be at the center of online news and includes a new push to help publishers get paid subscribers through the tech giant's platform. According to product chief Trystan Upstill, the news app "uses the best of artificial intelligence to find the best of human intelligence -- the great reporting done by journalists around the globe." While the app will enable users to get "personalized" news, it will also include top stories for all readers, aiming to break the so-called filter bubble of information designed to reinforce people's biases.
[D] What are some non-trivial but achievable exercises in reinforcement learning? โข r/MachineLearning
It's a lot more involved, but the Easy21 assignment from David Silver's RL course is a very thorough intro to RL - it does require going through requisite material in the course though. This is in opposition to putting a cross-entropy loss on a CNN and training it on MNIST - courses/practicals will vary on how practically they deal with this task vs. how much they go into the underlying theory.

Colin Lewis: How to be a modern day marketing mystic - Marketing Week
Since time immemorial, humans have longed to learn what the future holds for them. Soothsayers, fortune-tellers and clairvoyants have targeted that particular market with gusto, with hundreds of discredited and often absurd methods. Think reading tea leaves, consulting tarot cards, numerology and phrenology. In Ancient Rome, there were even religious officials called haruspex who interpreted omens by inspecting the entrails of sacrificed animals. Whatever form fortune-telling takes, the basic outcome is the same: seeking meaning in random patterns and phenomenon.
