Hi there, nice comments about the top 12 secret shortcuts of Dataiku DSS convinced me to write another one: this time it's about plugins, movies, APIs, and how to choose the best one to watch with friends. A friend of mine has a list of all her DVDs (and takes note of who borrowed what;-). How do I choose the top 5 movies I'd like to borrow? I'm not a movie maniac and I don't know most of the titles of her collection. And when I do know one, it's most often because I have already seen it (and would prefer to watch a new one).

Nasa has announced that it has found evidence of flowing water on Mars. Scientists have long speculated that Recurring Slope Lineae -- or dark patches -- on Mars were made up of briny water but the new findings prove that those patches are caused by liquid water, which it has established by finding hydrated salts. Several hundred camped outside the London store in Covent Garden. The 6s will have new features like a vastly improved camera and a pressure-sensitive "3D Touch" display

In the past two decades, we've seen chess grandmasters and the best Jeopardy players in the world alike fall in competition to computers. Heads-up No-limit Texas Hold'em poker may be next. But the future of artificial intelligence (AI) is about way more than games. Last April and May, Carnegie Mellon University's AI, Claudico (developed by Professor Tuomas Sandholm and his team), played an 80,000-hand tournament against four poker pros. When the game ended, three of the four players had bigger hands than Claudico.

Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference kicks off Monday at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, where thousands of developers will gain insight into Apple technology. During the keynote address, Apple is expected to largely focus on new software developments, with announcements potentially regarding all four operating systems: iOS, OS X, watchOS and tvOS. After facing some headwinds in the past year -- such as posting a decline in quarterly revenue for the first time in more than a decade and receiving a mixed response to the launch of the Apple Watch -- Apple may want to roll out more than just some minor upgrades. A new approach to artificial intelligence and big data, or an embrace of communal devices, could go a long way in keeping Apple competitive with other tech industry giants. Apple has boxed itself into a big data and artificial intelligence corner and fallen behind the likes of Amazon and Google.

Google Home And Google Assistant Essential Guide About a year ago, Amazon announced Amazon Echo, an artificial intelligence Bluetooth speaker. Somehow similar to Apple's Siri assistant, only that it is called Alexa. The device is a speaker and also a personal assistant.

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference next Monday will be all about the brains behind Apple devices--the operating systems. It's not likely we'll see any new gadgetry (I could be wrong; it's happened), but we'll get a busload of information about new tricks in iOS, Mac OS, watchOS, and tvOS. At last year's WWDC, you may remember, Apple introduced OS X 10.11 (El Capitan), iOS 9, and WatchOS 2. The News app debuted, Maps added public transit directions, and HomeKit and CarPlay both got updates. This year we'll hear a lot about how Siri is moving deeper into Apple's major OSs, and about her advances in general smarts and usefulness. And Apple execs will probably talk about how the company has further integrated its cloud services into its OSs and apps.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans. Knowledge engineering is a core part of AI research. Machines can often act and react like humans only if they have abundant information relating to the world. Artificial intelligence must have access to objects, categories, properties and relations between all of them to implement knowledge engineering. Artificial intelligence uses algorithms to comprehend and react towards a human activity.

We all need a little help sometimes. After all, what are cloud-based, artificially intelligent software agents for? By now we're all familiar with the usual suspects: Siri, Google Now, Cortana and Alexa. They introduced most of us to the idea of talking to, rather than via, a phone, computer or home appliance. But let's face it: These virtual assistants have become boring, banal commodities.

An Aussie mom recently penned a heartfelt thank-you note to Apple, and her story of how the company's "Hey Siri" feature helped save her 1-year-old daughter is now making the rounds. Stacey Gleeson noticed her daughter, Giana, wasn't breathing back in March, and as she leaped into action to perform CPR, she dropped her iPhone. As Gleeson started taking life-saving measures on her baby, she shouted, "Hey Siri, call the ambulance," 7 News reports. Gleeson was able to have a back-and-forth with emergency dispatchers as she continued CPR on Giana, who the BBC reports had been dealing with a respiratory illness and chest infection. The child was breathing again by the time the ambulance arrived at their Cairns home, and Gleeson says doctors told her every second had mattered.
