Alphabet Inc. subsidiary Google's (GOOG) artificial intelligence (AI) assistant is failing to catch on. A Bloomberg report this morning states that Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei, which uses Google's Android operating system for its phones, is developing its own voice-activated AI assistant. According to the report, Huawei's AI assistant, which will use local languages in China for communication, is targeted at the Chinese market and is intended to compete with the likes of Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) Siri and Amazon.com, This is the second such announcement after Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd (SSNLF), which also uses Google's mobile operating system in its phones, announced its own digital assistant last year. While Samsung has the largest number of mobile phone shipments, Huawei is ranked third. Huawei has also announced that it will pre-install Alexa, Amazon's voice assistant, on its Mate 9 phones.

In a new resolution, members of the European Parliament have proposed EU Commission rules governing robotics and artificial intelligence. The proposed rules will focus on issues of liability, the impact of robots on the workforce, a code of ethical conduct for developers, and the establishment of a European Agency for robotics and artificial intelligence. Liability issues are of growing concern, with MEPs pointing specifically to issues surrounding the growing market in self-driving cars. They have called for mandatory insurance and a supplementary fund to ensure compensation for victims of accidents involving autonomous vehicles. In the resolution, MEPs also stated a concern that the growing adoption of robots in the workforce could cause labor market disruption and proposed a'robot tax' on companies adopting robots to replace human workers.

The face of the internet is changing on a swift pace making it easier and more convenient for users to interact with them. Artificial Intelligence is being integrated into websites which is making things simpler with minimal amount of interaction from the user. There are millions of images in a stock photography agency. The way images are distinguished from each other is by keywords relevant to the image. Thanks to the Keywordsready.com, the task has been made pretty simple by fusing together a website that uses Artificial Intelligence to grab the right keywords for you.

Internet of @ThingsExpo, taking place June 6-8, 2017 at Javits Center, New York City, is co-located with 20th International @CloudExpo and will feature technical sessions from a rock star conference faculty and the leading industry players in the world. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the most profound change in personal and enterprise IT since the creation of the Worldwide Web more than 20 years ago. All major researchers estimate there will be tens of billions devices - computers, smartphones, tablets, and sensors - connected to the Internet by 2020. This number will continue to grow at a rapid pace for the next several decades. With major technology companies and startups seriously embracing IoT strategies, now is the perfect time to attend @ThingsExpo 2017 in New York and Silicon Valley.

The third report covers Prediction Markets and is a Subject Tracer featuring resources, sources and sites that allow for market predictions and related analytics.

The biggest trend emerging in 2017 has got to be artificial intelligence (AI), and its applications in machine learning, robots, and blockchain technologies. This certainly became apparent for me at two events I attended last fall. I was invited to speak about design thinking at logistic company Dematic's global supply chain conference and had a chance to visit their robotics trade show. The excitement about robotics and emerging technologies was through the roof, and no one seemed to be afraid of robots taking over the world. The answer is simple; they need cross-disciplinary problem-solvers, and leaders who know how to manage people, just like any other successful 21st century company.)

For making a success in stock photography it is desirable on the part of the photographer to be skilled not only in taking quality images, but also to scan out all the relevant descriptive keywords which can serve beneficial in listing his image on a stock photograpy agency. Today the task of keywording has emerged out as an act of creativity which can either lead to a great sale or deprive you of buyers. As the task of manually finding the keywords can be time consuming, keywordsready.com which is a keyword suggestion tool is well versed to relieve you of this problem and retrieves within seconds a set of keywords through Artificial Intelligence and pattern recognition technology. This saves your precious time for a multitude of other tasks concerning stock photography.

Astro Teller knows how to draw attention. He was wearing his rollerblades on Thursday when he glided into a roomful of reporters to announce that Project Loon--Alphabet's wacky-sounding plan to deliver the internet to the world's farthest-flung places via giant balloons--is even closer to reality than the company previously thought. It was a made-for-the-press moment, but Teller buried the lede. It's cool that these balloons may soon start broadcasting internet signals from the stratosphere. But the bigger deal here is that machine learning is moving beyond its digital origins into the real world.

A group of researchers at California?s Stanford University say they've created a computer-based artificial intelligence algorithm that can identify skin cancer as accurately as a doctor. Tech billionaire Elon Musk shared his insights about the future at an event in Dubai. ELON Musk believes artificial intelligence could be catastrophic for humanity. He thinks we are set to become a cyborg race, which will have to grapple with 15 per cent of the global work force being without a job, reports The Sun. The creative genius added a'universal income' would have to be introduced for the global population because robots will do everything.

Current research projects show that artificial intelligence (AI) can help us solving global problems for the greater good of mankind. Despite the headlines presenting crashes involving self-driving cars, the applications of AI technology in this area could dramatically reduce injuries and deaths on the roads. Self-driving cars could also change our lifestyles. Thanks to this emerging technology, we will have more time to entertain ourselves of work during commutes. The decreased cognitive load and the increased comfort provided by shared transportation and self-driving may also affect where people choose to live.
