You might think Tinder is your best bet, but new data shows you might actually have better luck elsewhere. A new study from Luminoso, a company spun off from the MIT Media Lab, has figured out which dating apps are most likely to get you laid, help you find love and more. To do this, they used natural language understanding, a type of AI, to analyze more than 100,000 reviews of 16 of the biggest dating apps. The results are especially interesting since it can be tricky to assess these kinds of things. People don't always type "I got laid" in a review, but a data scientist from Luminoso explained in an email that beyond looking for mentions specifically of getting laid, their software can search the concept.

Love is in the air and one man is trying to make America date again. Turns out that those who voted for the President are looking for like-minded partners, just as people with specific professions or the same religion turn to certain dating sites to find a match. The site's founder David Goss started the site after seeing there was one like it for supporters of Senator Bernie Sanders, who was in the running for President and the Democratic nomination, according to CNET. While you can browse single supporters in your area for free, you can't contact them without signing up for the site and paying the fees associated with use. Users can either pay a monthly fee of $19.99 or pay in smaller amounts for credits that earn them messages to other users, says CNET.

Alexa, the talking lady who sits inside the Amazon Echo waiting for you to say her name, is having a personality makeover. The talking AI's latest update comes with a range of "speechcons" – little expressions or verbal tics. Alexa will say 100 new words, including "bazinga" and "woohoo". In a nod to nerd culture, she will range from "Kapow!" (Batman) to "Great Scott!" (Superman). She will even quote the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ("Cowabunga") and The Godfather ("Bada bing!") if she needs to give deeper vent to her feelings.

OkCupid has refreshed is mobile app with a new look and revised questions and categories to help you find a potential life partner rather than a one-night stand. The app already probed your interests and leanings, but has added 50 new questions including "Is climate change real?", "Do you feel there should be a ban on immigrants from predominantly Muslim countries entering the US?" and just "Trump?" You can choose from a range of answers, and the data has been given more weight overall to find you a potential match. The aim, the company says, is to "help you find deeper connections," rather than just a hookup partner for the night à la Tinder and other apps (Tinder and OkCupid are owned by the same parent, but aimed at different users, obviously). If you are looking for a less profound connection, OkCupid has also introduced a new feature called "DoubleTake."

For years, marketing was considered more art than science. But more recently, as marketing automation software has proliferated, marketers have had to blend the art of storytelling with the science of data. Then along comes artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, which promise to help marketers make sense of all that data. Some experts believe AI's impact on marketing will be hugely significant, that it could even change the nature of marketing entirely -- enabling brands to break through the noise and deliver a more personalized experience to customers. Not surprisingly, though, there are challenges ahead for organizations seeking to add AI to their marketing technology stack.

It's a 360 degree speaker with voice recognition powered by Amazon Alexa voice service. Amazon Echo Dot has the avabilityes to play music, give news, weather, sport results, traffic and much more. It can even order pizza from Domino's Pizza.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the branch of computer sciences that emphasizes the development of intelligence machines, thinking and working like humans. Today, Artificial Intelligence is a very popular subject that is widely discussed in the technology and business circles. Many experts and industry analysts argue that AI or machine learning is the future – but if we look around, we are convinced that it's not the future – it is the present. With the advancement in technology, we are already connected to AI in one way or the other – whether it is Siri, Watson or Alexa. Yes, the technology is in its initial phase and more and more companies are investing resources in machine learning, indicating a robust growth in AI products and apps in the near future. The following statistics will give you an idea of growth!

With the end of the year drawing nearer, the pace of innovation in tech sees no rest as things in the IT world are moving faster than ever before. Recently Vice President and Gartner Fellow in Gartner Research, David Cearley has identified a top ten strategic technology trends for the year ahead. Artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced machine learning (ML) are composed of processes and technologies such as deep learning, natural-language processing, and neural networks. Initially started as a means to automate tasks, it's now transcended past traditional rule-based algorithms and developed into creating systems that have the ability to learn autonomously and use data to predict the future. Cearly said ""Applied AI and advanced machine learning give rise to a spectrum of intelligent implementations, including physical devices (robots, autonomous vehicles, consumer electronics) as well as apps and services (virtual personal assistants, smart advisers).

ONE Saturday night last year, 11 people went looking for love. Like countless speed daters before them, they met in a room draped with curtains, the lights on low. In one hand they held traditional glasses of bubbly, but in the other were sheets of paper they had filled with their personal data. This twist on speed-dating was part of an experiment run by a team at Newcastle University in the UK. They wanted to know what would happen in a world where instead of vetting potential dates by their artfully posed selfies or carefully crafted dating-site profiles, we looked at data gathered by their computers and phones.
