Robot" has gained a cult-like following not just in the U.S., but also in other parts of the world. Stars of the show are aware that the show has devoted fans, but it wasn't until Rami Malek, who plays the series' lead character Elliot Alderson, encountered a fan in Serbia that he realized how big the show's effect really is. During a panel, as quoted by Variety, Malek said: "I was just shooting a movie in Serbia and so many young kids came out and waited outside my hotel to talk to me about ['Mr. They had nothing but good things to say about the show and how the characters have affected them. I've never had that experience before." Malek added: "I'm very proud of what [series creator] Sam [Esmail] has created and that the show is bringing attention to people suffering with mental illness.

It looks like Apple's Siri is a huge fan of the HBO sci-fi show "Westworld." Evan Rachel Wood, who plays Dolores Abernathy in the show, had a little fun with Siri and asked the robotic personal assistant things about the Season 1 finale of "Westworld." The actress even posted screenshots of her conversations with Siri on her Twitter page. In one tweet, Siri quoted the typical response given by hosts whenever they are presented with images of the modern world: "It doesn't look like anything to me." When Wood turned the tables and used quotes from the show, Siri gave out hilarious and witty responses.

The recently proposed Sequence-to-Sequence (seq2seq) framework advocates replacing complex data processing pipelines, such as an entire automatic speech recognition system, with a single neural network trained in an end-to-end fashion. In this contribution, we analyse an attention-based seq2seq speech recognition system that directly transcribes recordings into characters. We observe two shortcomings: overconfidence in its predictions and a tendency to produce incomplete transcriptions when language models are used. We propose practical solutions to both problems achieving competitive speaker independent word error rates on the Wall Street Journal dataset: without separate language models we reach 10.6% WER, while together with a trigram language model, we reach 6.7% WER.

Gartner recently announced its top technology trends for 2017 – and for business leaders who are looking ahead, these trends provide a lens through which to view how the right technology tools and services can support growth. Some of the major trends for businesses include increased digital scope, efficiency through artificial intelligence, and a diminishing line separating the digital and physical world. Mid-sized businesses, particularly those within the legal field, are finding opportunities in technology to expand their offerings and increase revenue. Gartner emphasizes the importance of intelligent apps, which are helping workers across fields find the right data faster, become more efficient and increase productivity. An intelligent application is a software platform that uses artificial intelligence or machine learning to increase the productivity of its user.

Amazon's virtual assistant tells jokes, dims your living room lights, and responds to famous Star Wars quotes. I mean, what more can you ask for? In addition to rattling off compelling news stories, she also entertains the masses wherever she goes. My sister, for example, stores the portable Echo device in her kitchen because she likes playing music while she cooks. But whenever I'm over her house, I always end up having a wild dance party with her two young children in the kitchen.

This morning, Google announced that it was open sourcing its data visualization tool, Embedding Projector. The tool will help machine learning researchers to visualize data without having to install and run TensorFlow. Dimensionality, and vectors in general, is not something that most of us find easy to understand. The problem is that we all live in a three-dimensional world. We are taught length, width and height, so we struggle to imagine what a forth, fifth or sixth dimension might look like -- this is why most of us found Christopher Nolan's representation of additional dimensions wonky in the movie Interstellar.

Not only will smart cities leverage sensors to use energy efficiently, buildings and highways will also be constructed out of materials that work more intelligently. Taking a nod from natural patterns, material scientists and architects have developed bricks with bacteria, made cement that captures carbon dioxide, and created building cooling systems using nothing but wind and sun. This trend could be a massive opportunity for cities, as well as industries like hospitality that depend on large energy-intensive buildings. MGM Resorts, Wynn, and Las Vegas Sands have all recently been outfitted for solar, for example, showing that large companies are taking the first steps toward sustainable infrastructure, both to cut costs and to appeal to environmentally conscious customers. With a growing need for global initiatives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, fight climate change, and evolve cruelty-free foods, the race is on to define how we consume protein, potentially without involving any animals.

After all, we test thousands of technology products in our lab each year, rating them against competitors, crowning winners and losers, all with the simple focus of telling you what technology to buy. Each of us has fielded numerous emails, texts, and phone calls from our readers, parents, high school friends, and others asking: "Which (TV, laptop, phone, headphones, or fill in the appropriate blank) should I buy?" We happily dispense this buying advice because we love what we do. Who better to assemble the ultimate tech-focused gift guide than us? The majority of the products in this story are ones that we've tested and rated throughout the year. There are, however, a few we haven't yet reviewed, or are in the process of reviewing, but we believe merit inclusion for their value proposition, specific appeal, or general cool gadget factor. After the last pine needle has fallen and all the gift wrap is recycled, we'll continue to update this story throughout the year, so it always includes our favorite products, and you have a curated list of gift ideas for every holiday. What's on your wish list this year? Is there a perfect holiday gift we didn't include?
