This Is How You Want Your Self-Driving Car To Behave In The Rain

#artificialintelligence

The most vexing point when it comes to autonomous vehicle technology is how it'll perform in the rain or the snow, which serve as one of the environmental scenarios that can stymie how a robot car performs. That's why a new video from AV system startup Drive.ai The nearly four-minute clip is one of the few instances that has captured an self-driving car moving about in inclement weather, without a driver intervening. "Any successful self-driving technology will need to address countless unpredictable situations and a wide range of driving conditions, yet few are able to today," Drive.ai, Drive.ai said it uses "deep learning technology" to develop its AV system, which it says allows the technology to develop and learn like a human brain would.

Artificial intelligence doesn't have to be a job killer ZDNet

#artificialintelligence

What impact will artificial intelligence (AI) have on the workforce? Will smart machines really replace a large number of people in a variety of jobs? As businesses continue to experiment with the Internet of Things, interesting use cases are emerging. Here are some of the most common ways IoT is deployed in the enterprise. These questions have been on the minds of a lot of people of late -- especially as AI becomes even more advanced.


London's new high-tech phone boxes have one problem: they don't work

The Independent - Tech

London's brand new, and supposedly high-tech, phone boxes are currently little more than elaborate-looking advertising boards, according to reports. Around 100 of them were installed across the capital by advertising firm Clear Channel last year, with 500 more set to pop up before the end of 2017. Each kiosk has been designed to offer Wi-Fi, touchscreen-controlled interactive maps and payphone services, but these don't appear to be working as they should, according to The Memo. The giant human-like robot bears a striking resemblance to the military robots starring in the movie'Avatar' and is claimed as a world first by its creators from a South Korean robotic company Waseda University's saxophonist robot WAS-5, developed by professor Atsuo Takanishi and Kaptain Rock playing one string light saber guitar perform jam session A man looks at an exhibit entitled'Mimus' a giant industrial robot which has been reprogrammed to interact with humans during a photocall at the new Design Museum in South Kensington, London Electrification Guru Dr. Wolfgang Ziebart talks about the electric Jaguar I-PACE concept SUV before it was unveiled before the Los Angeles Auto Show in Los Angeles, California, U.S The Jaguar I-PACE Concept car is the start of a new era for Jaguar.

Facebook is about to make its video autoplay feature even more annoying

The Independent - Tech

Facebook has announced plans to automatically play sound on the videos that pop up in your News Feed. The move is unlikely to prove popular with the vast majority of users, but video content has become increasingly important to the social network. "As people watch more video on phones, they've come to expect sound when the volume on their device is turned on," it wrote in a blog post.

Differences between data mining, machine learning and deep learning

@machinelearnbot

In the past few years, the terms machine learning (ML) and deep learning have begun showing up frequently in many technology news and websites. The major difference between machine learning and other statistical methods, like data mining, is a popular subject of debate. In laymen's language, ML and data mining process use many of the same algorithms and techniques but one major difference lies in what the two methods predict. While data mining is used to uncover previously unknown patterns and knowledge, Machine learning is used to reproduce known patterns and knowledge. ML provides algorithms that resolve the problem based on the data, and the solution improves with time.


Digital Models Change The Location Of Call Center And Finance/Accounting Work

Forbes - Tech

I've been blogging about companies desiring to re-examine their assumptions around what work should be done offshore and their desire to do more work onshore and explaining some cost-effective techniques for achieving these objectives. It's clear that emerging digital models allow companies using digital technologies to re-examine their assumptions of where business process work should be done. Leading companies are re-imagining their call centers and customer experience to integrate digital models into their voice models. Work volumes are shifting from voice call centers into new channels such as chat apps, email, tweets and other social channels. Companies are adopting these new ways of communicating with customers and integrating them into their customer service models.

IBM wants to bring machine learning to the mainframe

#artificialintelligence

IBM wants to bring machine learning to its traditional mainframe customers, and eventually to any technology with large data stores hidden behind a company firewall in what IBM calls a "private cloud." Yes mainframes, those ginormous computing machines from an earlier age, are still running inside some of the world's biggest companies including banks, insurance companies, airlines and large retailers. In fact, according to IBM, a modern IBM z Systems mainframe is capable of processing up to 2.5 billion transactions per day โ€“ the equivalent of roughly 100 Cyber Mondays every day. IBM wants to bring some core Watson machine learning smarts to its mainframe clients -- and eventually to any computing done inside the data center -- to allow them to take advantage of all that data in a more modern machine learning context. "Over 90 percent of the data in the world can't be Googled. It resides behind firewalls on private clouds. How do we automate intelligence [for these data sources]?,"
