GitHub - saurabhmathur96/clickbait-detector: Detects clickbait headlines using deep learning.
The dataset consists of about 12,000 headlines half of which are clickbait. The clickbait headlines were fetched from BuzzFeed, NewsWeek, The Times of India and, The Huffington Post. The genuine/non-clickbait headlines were fetched from The Hindu, The Guardian, The Economist, TechCrunch, The wall street journal, National Geographic and, The Indian Express. Some of the data was from peterldowns's clickbait-classifier repository I used Stanford's Glove Pretrained Embeddings PCA-ed to 30 dimensions. This sped up the training.
Artificial Intelligence Is Not a Threat--Yet
We need to be super careful with AI. That same year University of Cambridge cosmologist Stephen Hawking told the BBC: "The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race." Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates also cautioned: "I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence." How the AI apocalypse might unfold was outlined by computer scientist Eliezer Yudkowsky in a paper in the 2008 book Global Catastrophic Risks: "How likely is it that AI will cross the entire vast gap from amoeba to village idiot, and then stop at the level of human genius?" His answer: "It would be physically possible to build a brain that computed a million times as fast as a human brain.... If a human mind were thus accelerated, a subjective year of thinking would be accomplished for every 31 physical seconds in the outside world, and a millennium would fly by in eight-and-a-half hours."
The opportunities and challenges of AI in health care VentureBeat AI
When we asked dozens of venture capitalists where they see the most potential for applied artificial intelligence, they unanimously agreed on health care. Technology has already been used to incrementally improve patient medical records, care delivery, diagnostic accuracy, and drug development, but with AI we could achieve exponential breakthroughs. Deep learning first caught the media's attention when a team from the lab of Geoffrey Hinton at the University of Toronto won a Merck drug discovery competition despite having no experience with molecular biology and pharmaceutical development. Recently, a multidisciplinary research team at Stanford's School of Medicine comprised of pathologists, biomedical engineers, geneticists, and computer scientists developed deep learning algorithms that diagnose lung cancer more accurately than human pathologists. The ultimate dream in health care is to eradicate disease entirely.
Elon Musk: Humans must become cyborgs to avoid AI domination
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk says humans will have to merge with machines to avoid becoming irrelevant. Speaking at the World Government Summit in Dubai, he explained that the human brain isn't capable of keeping up with computers, which will start replacing people in certain fields of work. "Over time I think we will probably see a closer merger of biological intelligence and digital intelligence," said Musk, according to CNBC.

Amazon's delivery drones could parachute packages to avoid landing
Amazon is toying with the idea of equipping its autonomous delivery drones with parachutes. The idea is that they would enable the flying contraptions to float packages down to the ground in situations where landing could prove tricky. The potential plans are outlined in a new US Patent and Trademark office patent spotted by CNN.

Congress Could Make Self-Driving Cars Happen--or Ruin Everything
Congress just stepped into the robocar game. In the past two days, a pair of senators started drafting legislation to advance autonomous vehicles, and the House Subcommittee on Digital Commerce and Consumer Protection held a two-hour hearing exploring how on the tech might be deployed. For your elected officials, it's a considerable, if tentative, step into the future of transportation. Small numbers of robocars already roam the San Francisco Bay Area and other cities, and you'll probably start riding in them within a few years as Uber and others commercialize the technology. Everything is racing ahead of a regulatory structure ill-equipped to usher in this change.
The Morning After: Wednesday February 15 2017
Expect new Facebook apps on your TVs, home security cameras that just know where your doors are, and the return of the Nokia 3310 -- for some reason. You'll have to subscribe for Nest's latest features.Nest cams can detect your doors automatically Over the next few weeks, Nest Aware customers will see automatic door detection appear on both their indoor and outdoor Nest Cam feeds. The cameras will attempt to recognize motion patterns over time, feeding the data into deep learning algorithms to make it all automated, creating "activity zones" around the doors it picks up. 'Gran Turismo' passed $1 billion in 2013'Forza' franchise tops $1 billion in sales Microsoft's flagship racing nameplate has yet to displace Gran Turismo from the throne, but thanks to Forza' popularity and consistency, it's officially the "best-selling racing franchise of this console generation." With nine titles to its credit, Forza has transitioned to a well-received annual release schedule, while GT's last full-fledged game was Gran Turismo 6 in 2013 for the PS3.
AI – Artificial intelligence: A look behind the curtain

Going through concrete AI use cases and live-demos of applications, Michael will share learnings about the trials and errors of applying AI in the enterprise sector. The event is open to Swisscom employees and external guests.
» Realizing a barrier-free society
Tokyo's underground consists of miles of pedestrian walkways, extensive shopping arcades and a subway network. It stretches for hundreds of kilometers between more than 200 subway stations. Even with a map and a good sense of direction, it is not necessarily an easy place to navigate. And for the visually impaired, the challenge is even greater. So, this month, a unique voice navigation field experiment led by civil engineering and general contracting firm Shimizu Corporation, IBM Research and real estate developer Mitsui Fudosan is taking place in an underground pedestrian walkway and COREDO Muromachi shopping park buildings 1, 2, and 3 in Nihonbashi-Muromachi, a popular downtown district with history that dates back to the Edo period of the 1600s.
