The Weather Company debuts interactive ad solution based on IBM Watson

#artificialintelligence

IBM-owned The Weather Company is launching Watson Ads, a new ad tech solution that utilises machine learning to give consumers an ability to interact with digital advertising. In what the vendor claims is the first consumer use of its cognitive computing technology for advertising purposes, Watson Ads will allow advertisers to produce display ads that invite consumers to interact through voice and text with a product or service offering. The Weather Company has confirmed three brands - Campbell Soup Company, Unilever and GSK Consumer Healthcare โ€“ will be the first to take up the new ad solution when it launches later this year. As an example, the media company said a consumer could ask through natural voice recognition what they should make for dinner that night. Watson will then provide a data-driven response using a combination of machine learning and reasoning ability from datasets ingested by the system.


Professor's A.I. Teaching Assistant Passed Test by Going Undetected by Students

#artificialintelligence

After robots flood the work market, the only jobs left for real people will be those that require critical thinking and human-level care. Something like a teacher at a college, that could definitely never be outsourced to an machine, right? Ashok Goel, a professor in computing at Georgia Tech, implemented an artificial intelligence teaching assistant in the online Q&A forums for one of his courses last semester. Young academics busting their backs in hopes of one day snagging a TA job will be alarmed to learn that the A.I, named Jill, performed so well that most of the course's students couldn't tell her from the other eight human TAs who were performing the same duties. The A.I.'s full name was Jill Watson, built from the same IBM Watson platform that beat humans in Jeopardy!


Banners Make Yet Another Request. This Time its to IBM Watson's AI

#artificialintelligence

You would be amazed about how many requests are made for a banner on a website. All kinds of tracking services are called along with the actual banner content. Now another request will increase load time. The Weather Company, an IBM Business is announcing Watson Ads, an industry-first capability in which consumers will be able to interact with IBM Watson through advertising, by being able to ask questions via voice or text and receive relevant information about the product or offering. Marketers have long sought an advertising solution that can create a one-to-one connection with the consumer, that can be personal, relevant and valuable; and can scale across millions of interactions and touchpoints. Watson Ads will help marketers achieve those goals, and can also help them uncover consumer and product insights faster than ever before, revealing connections previously invisible to human data scientists.


IBM Watson Is Now Offering AI-Powered Digital Ads That Answer Consumers' Questions

#artificialintelligence

Big Blue is bringing a new kind of big data to digital ads. We've seen Bob Dylan talking to IBM Watson about love and loss in TV spots for months, and Big Blue now wants us to connect with the same kind of artificial intelligence--but not to discuss humanity's deepest issues. No, the idea here is more about the weather and the right kinds of spices to put in our soup. The Armonk, N.Y.-based tech giant today is announcing Watson Ads that will let consumers ask questions by voice or text and receive answers. IBM's relatively new ownership of The Weather Company's digital properties is coming into play in a serious fashion: Watson Ads will first appear on Weather.com, the Weather mobile app and the company's data-driven WeatherFX platform.


IBM Watson chief: Just like humans, computers can learn from mistakes

#artificialintelligence

David Kenny spoke at The Post's 2016 Transformers live journalism event May 18 in Washington, D.C. Learn more here. "We don't ask the same person to be our oncologist, our radiologist, our accountant, our chef and our dry cleaner. We have different people learn different things and the same is true with AI. "When it makes mistakes, when it's misinterpreted and gives a wrong answer, then you correct it and it learns for the next time. I think what's important is you put safeguards, that there is still an override, that those don't become decisions. In the more critical the mission, the more you need to have checks and balances just as we do on humans, right?


Interview: IBM Watson's creative director on Amazon Echo and how AI can save lives

#artificialintelligence

IBM Watson burst onto the scene in 2011 as a Jeopardy-playing computer and quickly became synonymous with artificial intelligence. Since then, AI has become a lot more commonplace thanks to the rise of digital assistants like Siri, Amazon's Alexa and Google Assistant, but Watson is still chugging away in more ways than you might think, powering everything from cancer treatment software to hotel concierge robots (pictured above). I had a chance to talk to Maya Weinstein, Senior Interaction Design and Creative Director at IBM Watson, about everything from the current crop of AI assistants to how the technology can help save lives. Check out the full interview (with some light edits for clarity) below. Jacob Kleinman: What do you think of the rise of consumer AI products like chatbots or Amazon Echo?


How IBM Watson Health revolutionises healthcare

#artificialintelligence

The idea that cognitive technology can transform the healthcare system in radical ways holds a special place in Matthew Howard's head. The UK Lead at IBM Watson Health has no doubts: "I consider it to be the most important development in healthcare analytics globally." And, using cognitive applications such IBM Watson to help augment the ability of the clinical scientific community, he says, is critical for meeting future life science demands. In fact, healthcare is a key strategic imperative to IBM. If you just look at some of the quotes by the company, they say very openly that Watson Health is their moon shot.


IBM Watson's Data-Crunching Gains Traction with Marketing Firms

#artificialintelligence

Employing IBM IBM 0.26 % 's artificial intelligence technology has become a popular move for brands seeking to make better use of data in their marketing efforts. Havas HAV 0.33 % Group this week is officially unveiling Havas Cognitive, a new practice in partnership with IBM Watson, to help clients develop tailored marketing campaigns and products. Separately, startup Equals 3 on Wednesday is launching a new software product dubbed Lucy that utilizes Watson's cognitive computing capabilities to make the media planning process more efficient for marketers and agencies. That follows earlier announcements by Turner Broadcasting, which earlier this year signed a deal to incorporate Watson into its ad sales efforts, and Kia Motors, 000270 -0.11 % which used Watson to select social media influencers for its Super Bowl ad campaign. Watson, which gained fame after beating top human competitors on "Jeopardy" five years ago, analyzes troves of data to uncover patterns that humans might miss.
