Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has 10 commandments for how AI and humans should act
The robot revolution is coming, and people like Elon Musk and prominent scientists are concerned about what this could portend for humanity. They have suggested that we carefully think through what it would mean to live with artificial sentiences that could easily outstrip our own intelligences, and whether it's really worth bringing them into the world to make our chat apps a little better. As part of a lengthy June 28 op-ed for Slate on the future of AI, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella outlined six imperatives for artificial intelligence, and four things that humans must impart into AI systems they build. A quick summary of Nadella's beliefs--10 commandments, if you will--regarding how AIs and humans must act in our shared future: Nadella's op-ed references science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov's often-cited three laws of robotics, which essentially state that robots should not harm humans. Nadella takes this slightly further in suggesting their programs should be designed so that they're actively helping people.
Artificial Intelligence Defined
Artificial Intelligence is developing at a rapid pace, with companies examining its potential to propel business growth. According to CNBC, Google has stated that it aims to win the artificial intelligence game, following news that it had purchased UK artificial intelligence firm Deepmind for more than US 537 million at the beginning of 2014. Artificial intelligence is still developing in the container terminal industry, however, intelligent autonomous machines are used at some fully automated terminals globally. These machines will be controlled by a central terminal operating system (TOS), which will coordinate the movement of automated cranes and other such equipment. Simulation and emulation company TBA are currently developing simulated virtual training techniques to allow terminal operator staff to train in a virtual environment.
Three-Word Phrases---anda Map---Can Find Anyone Anywhere Search
According to the UK-based company What3words, I live at offers.reform.curve in Brooklyn. I work for Condรฉ Nast, which has offices in downtown Manhattan at words.artists.names--but Afterward, I'll be drinking at trick.pills.prompting. These little word-salads are cute, but you might be wondering: Why do I need a new address? If you live in the developed world, you probably don't; Google Maps knows where you live, and so does the mail carrier.

Saving Earth's Coral Reefs with Deep Learning
Global warming and pollution are causing severe stress to coral reefs across the world. Researchers from the University of California Berkeley and University of Queensland developed a deep learning process that automatically analyzes reef photos that will help measure reef health and changes over time. Reefs provide food and shelter for more than a quarter of all marine species, and support fish stocks that feed more than a billion people and provide jobs to millions of people in coastal areas. The new technology "will allow the world's scientists to more quickly assess the health of coral reefs at scales never dreamed of before," said Ove Hoegh-Guldberg, chief scientist of the global reef record and a professor at the University of Queensland. With that information, they can more effectively take steps to protect and save them.
LSTMVis
Recurrent neural networks, and in particular long short-term memory networks (LSTMs), are a remarkably effective tool for sequence processing that learn a dense black-box hidden representation of their sequential input. Researchers interested in better understanding these models have studied the changes in hidden state representations over time and noticed some interpretable patterns but also significant noise. We present LSTMVis a visual analysis tool for recurrent neural networks with a focus on understanding these hidden state dynamics. The tool allows a user to select a hypothesis input range to focus on local state changes, to match these states changes to similar patterns in a large data set, and to align these results with structural annotations from their domain. We provide data for the tool to analyze specific hidden state properties on dataset containing nesting, phrase structure, and chord progressions, and demonstrate how the tool can be used to isolate patterns for further statistical analysis.

AI, Frankenstein? Not so fast, experts say
Ask Apple's Siri digital assistant if she's evil, and she'll respond curtly, "Not really." Repeat a famous line from the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey," in which a computer on a spaceship kills nearly all the human crew, and Siri groans. And who can blame her? We humans have a morbid fascination with machines rising up to wipe us out or to enslave us as cocooned, flesh-and-blood battery packs. You can see that vision of the future streaming over Netflix whenever you want.
Meet the World's First Robot Lawyer
For warehouse workers and truck drivers, the future does not look rosy. But those of us with more white collar gigs don't have to panic yet, right? Well, maybe some of us do. Sorry, lawyers, we know you're already spinning from a lousy job market and tons of law school debt, but it looks like you're going to face competition from artificial intelligence sooner rather than later. The brainchild of London-born Stanford University student Joshua Browder, the artificial intelligence-driven chatbot has already gotten 160,000 people out of parking tickets.
