It could be mistaken for a hovering UFO, but this DIY flashlight consists of ten separate 100-watt LEDs mounted on a Freefly Alta drone. Daniel Riley of Stratus Productions designed'the world's brightest flashlight' last year and recently updated the creation with new lights that are much more accurate and brighter. The filmmaker replaced the cheap eBay LEDs with Yuji high CRI LED chips, which illuminates the night sky with a flying spotlight. Daniel Riley designed'the world's brightest flashlight' last year and recently updated by replacing the cheap eBay LEDs with Yuji high CRI LED chips, which are bright enough to light up the sky in the dead of night Riley's original creation was awarded the title of'world's brightest flashlight' in 2015 by the Guinness Book of World Records. The design is an ultra-powerful 1000W light that puts out a whopping 900000 lumens. Recently, he replaced the cheap eBay LEDs with Yuji high CRI LED chips, which are bright enough to light up the sky in the dead of night.

Kurt Vonnegut's novel Slaughterhouse Five and J.K.Rowling's series of Harry Potter novels describe the time travel paradox. Traveling through time changes the future from the point in time where the traveler arrived. The personal assistant that will arrive at some time in the future will change humans from that point in time forward, but in a more impactful way than GPS. Google and Facebook have recruited the best artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning talent in the world to build personal assistants in small increments. The personal assistant's intimate knowledge of users' likes and dislikes and awareness of situational context could be like Samantha depicted in the movie Her, but without an emotional relationship so users will not fall in love with their assistants.

Boombotix is an audio hardware startup that prides itself on headphones and customizable Bluetooth speakers. But with the smart speaker industry growing like popcorn and one major voice assistant service underrepresented, the company thinks it can find its own niche in bringing the Hurricane speaker to Kickstarter for a round of crowdfunding. Hurricane is powered by Houndify code from the makers of music recognition service SoundHound and the wider-appeal Hound service. It's being touted as "the first ever voice activated DJ with Artificial Intelligence" that educates itself on your musical desires to provide continuous music. The "Personalized music ALgorithm" or "PAL," logs the times of your requests and metadata on what music you listen to. Hound also provides all the usual answers to requests for general information and third-party services like IFTTT, Uber and Nest.

Mention artificial intelligence and a discussion about the robot wipeout of humankind is sure to follow. It's a technology as strongly associated with creation as it is with destruction. It's also a technology that businesses will increasingly trust in decision-making, Gartner analysts said Monday at the research firm's annual Symposium/ITxpo here. In the next three to five years, Gartner predicts that 50 percent of all analytical interactions will be delivered via artificial intelligence, and many of the insights will be gleaned through verbal interactions. People already know and interact with A.I. systems through IBM's Watson, IPSoft's Amelia, Apple's Siri, Microsoft's Cortana and Google Assistant.

Harper Lee published her Pulitzer Prize winning book, To Kill a Mockingbird in 1960. A couple of years later, Gregory Peck won an Academy for Best Actor in his role as Atticus in the movie adaptation. What many do not realize is Lee was given a grant by friends to take off work for a year and concentrate on writing the book. Her story has fired the imagination of many who would like all of us to find similar friends and get a similar grant. Imagine what wonderful things we could produce.

"This story line will make Hieronymus Bosch look like he was doodling kittens," Lee Sizemore brags. He's the head of the "narrative department" at Westworld, a frontier-themed vacation park where customers act out their darkest fantasies. A special little something I call the ourobouros." Self-cannibalism and the snake that eats its own tail: that's a fair description of "Westworld," a come-hither drama that introduces itself as a science-fiction thriller about cyborgs who become self-aware, then reveals its true identity as what happens when an HBO drama struggles to do the same. Created by the husband-and-wife team of Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, "Westworld" is explicitly, and often wittily, an exploitation series about exploitation, full of naked bodies that are meant to make us think about nudity and violence that comments on violence.

That's just one takeaway from a new 48-page report White House AI report it released to policy makers this week, according to Jim Hendler, AI expert, researcher and coauthor of the new book, Social Machines: The Coming Collision of Artificial Intelligence, Social Networking and Humanity. Addressing such concerns, the report says that fears about super-intelligent and evil computers, shouldn't have much impact on current US policy toward AI. "And it gets that part right … we all need to cut past the hype and look at what's really on in AI," he said, "so we can pay attention to the real risks and opposed to the science fiction risks," he said. The things to worry about aren't the frightening HAL 9000 or Skynet scenarios, Hendler says, "but the very real economic, societal ethical and safety concerns AI poses for the foreseeable future." The report does a fair job of addressing such issues overall, he says, "and it is good as far as it goes," Hendler says.

Tim Cook's latest stop for his Asia tour is in Japan. Apart from riding the bullet train to travel around the country, Apple's CEO did an interview to share some interesting things about the company's plans for its Japan-based R&D center. Speaking with Nikkei Asian Review, Cook revealed that Apple's R&D facility in Yokohama, which is close to Japan's capital city Tokyo and is expected to be completed this December, will serve as the core of the tech giant's "deep engineering." Steve Jobs' successor admitted that he is remaining mum about what this is all about, but he did say that Apple is capitalizing on AI in cooperation with Japanese companies. Cook shared that they plan to make the most out of AI by crafting technologies that would be very useful, such as increasing battery life of certain products or recommending songs to Apple Music users.
