What if your computer or smartphone could tell if you're happy or sad? A new device developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology aims to detect emotions by sending wireless signals that measure heartbeats as the signals bounce off a person's body. Researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory say their device is 87 percent accurate in using heartrate and what it's already learned about a person to recognize joy, pleasure, sadness or anger, after the device first measures how each individual's body reacts in various emotional states. It works like an electrocardiogram monitor but without needing a sensor on the body to measure heartbeats. They say it could one day be used by advertising agencies to gauge audience reaction or in health care to diagnose depression or anxiety.

Saying they were doing something no other government has done, Obama administration officials rolled out a plan Tuesday they say will enable automakers to get self-driving cars onto the road without compromising safety. In drawing up 112 pages of guidelines, the government tried to be vague enough to allow innovation while at the same time making sure that car makers, tech companies and ride-hailing firms put safety first as the cars are developed. Only time will tell whether the mission was accomplished, but the document generally was praised by businesses and analysts as good guidance in a field that's evolving faster than anyone imagined just a few years ago. "How do you regulate a complex software system?" asked Timothy Carone, a Notre Dame University professor who has written about the future of automation. "They want to allow innovation, but they want to be very proscriptive in managing the risk side of this. In my mind, they're trying to manage the unknown."

Google promised it would release both Allo and Duo, it's new chat and video calling apps, this summer. Duo landed more than a month ago, but Allo is just barely squeaking under the wire before it's technically Autumn. The Allo site is now live, and it gives you a rundown of the most important features of Google's new messaging app. The app itself is still rolling out worldwide, and may or may not yet be available for you by the time you read this. As with Duo, Allo is available for both Android and iOS.

A cresting wave of new technologies -- including everything from virtual and augmented reality, AI-powered chat bots, IoT and voice recognition platforms -- is about to change both the theory and practice of CX, again. Many CX professionals are still perfecting their game on the web and mobile, but these new tools threaten to render much of that effort stale or redundant in short order. We kick off our program with a tour d'horizon of this new world. To take full advantage of these emerging technologies, you must understand what makes your customers tick, mixing quantitative with qualitative methods. Knowing the who, what, when and where is essential; but without learning why your customers do what they do, and how to apply that to your work, any future-state CX projects will disappoint.

In June 2016 Ravi Mody and Tim Schmeier gave a presentation at the NYC Machine Learning meetup to discuss their work on the data science team at iHeartRadio. This is the second in a three part article complementing the presentation. We recommend you read part 1 before continuing. As discussed in part 1, some of the most exciting developments in online music have been around deep personalization using machine learning. We went into detail on how we at iHeartRadio are using a machine learning method called matrix factorization (MF) to map our user behavior into powerful representations called vector space models.

If you're going to unveil a new messaging app, it had better do something unique. At this point, finding a place amongst entrenched options like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp and iMessage is not an easy task. Google didn't quite pull it off with Hangouts when it launched in 2013. Sure, it's installed on basically every Android phone out there and anyone with a Gmail account has probably tried it, but Google's messaging strategy never quite came together in a compelling or clear way. So Google is rebooting yet again with Allo, a mobile-only messaging app that leverages the company's biggest strengths in an effort to stand out from the pack.

CORALVILLE, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cognonto, a new start-up in knowledge-based artificial intelligence (KBAI), announced today the dual release of its Cognonto Platform and KBpedia, a computable knowledge structure to automate much of the effort needed for machine learning. KBpedia leverages six large-scale knowledge bases -- Wikipedia, Wikidata, GeoNames, OpenCyc, DBpedia and UMBEL -- into a single structure expressly designed to support artificial intelligence (AI) within enterprises. "Many of the AI advances in recent years, such as question answering on smart phones or systems that beat human contestants in Jeopardy, are built around Web knowledge bases like Wikipedia," said Michael Bergman, a co-founder of Cognonto. "But these are one-off systems that only the largest tech firms or research outfits can afford," he said. "The idea behind Cognonto is to democratize this process such that any enterprise can afford to train their own machine learners or gain the advantages of knowledge-based artificial intelligence."
