Artificial intelligence is now becoming an integral part of our lives and has defined its role in various fields. Now Artificial Intelligence is no longer just confined to movies related to science fiction. We find it is a part of our routine lives and in our classrooms. Since there are many AI tools in the market such as Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple's Siri, we are just starting to see the presence of AI in the field of education as well. Here are some key benefits of Artificial Intelligence in education which helps in the overall learning experience. The personalization in education is one of the benefits that Artificial Intelligence is expected to contain in its armory.

Apple added to its rapidly growing artificial intelligence portfolio earlier this year by acquiring Spain-based AI video startup Vilynx for approximately $50 million, Bloomberg reported Tuesday. Vilynx, headquartered in Barcelona, built software that leverages computer vision to analyze a video's visual, text, and audio content with the goal of "understanding" what's in the video, which helps it categorize and tag metadata, generate automated video previews, and recommend related content, according to an earlier version of its website. Apple told Bloomberg that it "buys smaller technology companies from time to time and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans," but the company could potentially use Vilynx's technology to help improve a variety of apps. Siri, search, Photos, and other apps that rely on Apple being able to accurately organize and surface information are possible candidates, as are Apple TV, Music, News, and other apps that use recommendation engines to present users with related content. CEO Tim Cook has repeatedly talked up the potential of augmented reality as well, which could also make use of AI-based tools like Vilynx.

Add another AI startup to Apple's growing list of 2020 acquisitions. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the company bought a firm called Vilynx earlier this year. The startup had been training an AI that could understand the content of a video by looking at its visual, audio and text cues. Vilynx used the capabilities of its technology to create tags that made videos more searchable. Apple reportedly paid 50 million to acquire the startup.

A report published last year has noted that most attacks against artificial intelligence (AI) systems are focused on manipulating them (e.g., influencing recommendation systems to favor specific content), but that new attacks using machine learning (ML) are within attackers' capabilities. Microsoft now says that attacks on machine learning (ML) systems are on the uptick and MITRE notes that, in the last three years, "major companies such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Tesla, have had their ML systems tricked, evaded, or misled." At the same time, most businesses don't have the right tools in place to secure their ML systems and are looking for guidance. Experts at Microsoft, MITRE, IBM, NVIDIA, the University of Toronto, the Berryville Institute of Machine Learning and several other companies and educational organizations have therefore decided to create the first version of the Adversarial ML Threat Matrix, to help security analysts detect and respond to this new type of threat. Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI).

Besides sporting a new round look, Amazon's updated fourth generation Echo speakers have something else going for them. Buy a pair for $200 and they make fabulous TV speakers. Without wires spread across the room from the TV. TV's have gotten way thinner and cheaper over the years, and a big casualty has been the tinny speaker, sending many consumers to soundbars that fit near the TV and connect directly. The advantages to two Echo speakers instead are huge.

Locked down singles in Britain looking for love on Tinder, one of the world's most popular dating apps, can now video chat with their matches. Tinder had announced it is rolling out its'Face to Face' feature to its global customer base today. To prevent creeps and weirdos exploiting the feature to berate or harass their matches, video calling only becomes available when both parties opt in. It is designed to be used to compliment and boost conversation once a spark has been established. Tinder had announced it is rolling out its'Face to Face' feature today to its users around the world.

When most people think of Artificial Intelligence (AI) they probably think about their Amazon's Alexa, self-driving cars or Apple's Siri. However, AI can help be used for many other functions, including marketing and construction. Home builders and developers can incorporate AI in their marketing and construction efforts to impact growth in business and employee retention. The benefits of AI include improving efficiency in the workplace, solving complex problems, and even freeing up your time. Many businesses use AI-related machines or bots and other technologies today so they can use their time more wisely.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been improving the performance of systems for a diverse set of tasks and introduced a more interactive generation of personal agents. Despite the current trend of applying AI for a great amount of areas, we have not seen the same quantity of work being developed for the tourism sector. This paper reports on the main applications of AI systems developed for tourism and the current state of the art for this sector. The paper also provides an up-to-date survey of this field regarding several key works and systems that are applied to tourism, like Personal Agents, for providing a more interactive experience. We also carried out an in-depth research on systems for predicting traffic human flow, more accurate recommendation systems and even how geospatial is trying to display tourism data in a more informative way and prevent problems before they arise.

Spotify is the largest on-demand music services in the world and has 299 million monthly users, including 138 million paying subscribers. One of the exciting features of the Spotify is Discover Weekly. It's a custom mixtape of 30 songs they've never listened to before but will probably love, and it's pretty much magic. Songza used to curate playlists manually in the early 2000s which was not able to fulfil the music needs of the consumers as it was developed as on specific interest of the curator. Pandora used tagging the songs manually with attributes like'folk', 'rock' and curating playlist with similar tags using the code. Collaborative filtering: It works by comparing people with similar tastes.
