'Tomb Raider' Trailer Released; Gamers React To First Footage

International Business Times

The first trailer for the new "Tomb Raider" reboot was released Wednesday, and it seems like fans are enjoying the video much more than the poster that was released earlier this week. The first official poster for "Tomb Raider" was criticized by many who believe star Alicia Vikander's neck is photoshopped to the point where it seems unnatural. In fact, it seems like many fans are pretty excited for the new movie. The "Tomb Raider" promo video makes it clear that this is a reboot that will start at the beginning of Lara's story. The trailer shows Lara (Vikander) getting a message from her dead father.


Organizations Deploying Artificial Intelligence Are Creating Jobs and Increasing Sales Press release

#artificialintelligence

New research from Capgemini's Digital Transformation Institute shows that four out of five companies implementing AI have created new jobs as a result of AI technology Paris, September 7, 2017 – Capgemini, a global leader in consulting, technology and outsourcing services, has today announced the findings of "Turning AI into concrete value: the successful implementers' toolkit", a study of nearly 1,000 organizations with revenues of more than $500m that are implementing artificial intelligence (AI), either as a pilot or at scale[1]. The research both counters fears that AI will cause massive job losses in the short term, as 83% of firms surveyed say AI has generated new roles in their organizations, and highlights the growth opportunity presented by AI: three-quarters of firms have seen a 10% uplift in sales, directly tied to AI implementation. The report, which surveyed executives from nine countries and across seven sectors, found that four out of five companies (83%) have created new jobs as a result of AI technology. Specifically, organizations are producing jobs at a senior level, with two in three jobs being created at the grade of a manager or above. Furthermore, among organizations that have implemented AI at scale, more than 3 in 5 (63%) said that AI has not destroyed any jobs in their organization.

Tomb Raider: is the Alicia Vikander reboot just Gap Yah: The Movie?

The Guardian

It was big on Instagram last year. White Saviour Barbie only had one joke, but it was a doozy: it followed the adventures of a wide-eyed Barbie doll as she travelled through the developing world on a gap year in the naive assumption that she was somehow helping. "What better way to bless the villagers than a fresh coat of paint?!" she asked in one post. "Many of them don't know the calming effect that just the right color can provide. I'm just doing what I can to help these huts become homes".

Fans are going crazy at director James Cameron's announcement that Linda Hamilton, the first actor to portray the fan-favorite Connor in the "Terminator" franchise, will be returning to the world of killer robots. A reveal that he championed due to Hollywood's total lack of roles for women action heroes over the age of 50. Which leads us to ask, has James Cameron actually seen "Wonder Woman?" New "Terminator" franchise director Tim Miller (formally from "Deadpool") and Cameron hosted a filmmaker discussion on the Paramount lot to give an update on all things skynet.


The next big act out of Abbey Road could be an AI startup

#artificialintelligence

Between 1962 and 1970, the Beatles recorded nearly all their singles and albums at London's Abbey Road Studios using one of EMI's innovative REDD mixing consoles. Five decades later, the studio is turning to startups to keep up with the pace of technological change. "We are aware of the studio's heritage of continually tracking technology as it changed over the years," says Jon Eades, innovation manager at Abbey Road Red, the studio's technology incubator, which launched in 2015. Abbey Road Red runs six-month mentoring programmes, giving music-technology startups access to the famous studio's experts and facilities, not to mention a foot in the door with Universal Music, which has owned the complex since buying out EMI in 2012. The third wave of startups graduate in October and their track record is impressive.


WATCH: Mexico City Earthquake Damage Captured In Drone Video

International Business Times

Mexico City was struck by a 7.1 earthquake Tuesday afternoon, leaving at least 116 dead and impacting an estimated 28 million others. The quake left widespread damage, power outages, cracked roads and toppled buildings throughout the city. Drone video captured in the aftermath of the quake revealed some of the damage. Footage showed at least one building virtually fully collapsed as people stood atop it and surveyed the devastation. The earthquake's epicenter was near the town of Raboso, approximately 76 miles southeast of Mexico City, the United States Geological Survey reported Tuesday.


Text Compression for Sentiment Analysis via Evolutionary Algorithms

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Can textual data be compressed intelligently without losing accuracy in evaluating sentiment? In this study, we propose a novel evolutionary compression algorithm, PARSEC (PARts-of-Speech for sEntiment Compression), which makes use of Parts-of-Speech tags to compress text in a way that sacrifices minimal classification accuracy when used in conjunction with sentiment analysis algorithms. An analysis of PARSEC with eight commercial and non-commercial sentiment analysis algorithms on twelve English sentiment data sets reveals that accurate compression is possible with (0%, 1.3%, 3.3%) loss in sentiment classification accuracy for (20%, 50%, 75%) data compression with PARSEC using LingPipe, the most accurate of the sentiment algorithms. Other sentiment analysis algorithms are more severely affected by compression. We conclude that significant compression of text data is possible for sentiment analysis depending on the accuracy demands of the specific application and the specific sentiment analysis algorithm used.
