The Robotics Project (the "Hand-Eye Project") evolved within the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory under the guidance of John McCarthy, Les Earnest, Jerry Feldman, and Tom Binford. Major efforts have been undertaken to isolate and solve fundamental problems in computer vision, manipulation, and autonomous vehicles. Generalized cones were introduced for modeling the geometry of 3-dimensional objects, and programs were constructed which learned structural descriptions of objects from laser-ranging data ("structured light"). Stereo vision and texture have been examined. Several generations of robot programming languages have resulted in AL, an intermediate-level language for commanding manipulation. A computer-controlled roving vehicle ("the cart") detected obstacles (using 9-eyed stereo) and planned paths to avoid them.

This paper is in the nature of a challenge to artificial intelligence experts. It suggests that the techniques of artificial intelligence should be applied to some realistic problems which exist in the programming and data processing fields. After a brief review of the little related existing work which has been done, the characteristics of programming problems which make them suitable for the application of artificial intelligence techniques are given. Specific illustrations of problems are provided under the broadcategories of data structure and organization, program structure and organization, improvements and corrections of programs, and language.In IJCAI-71: INTERNATIONAL JOINT CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.

Like it or not – artificial intelligence is here, and it is going to stay. Researchers predict that by 2020, artificial intelligence technologies will be implemented in the majority of new software products and services, which will inevitably change the way we live, work, and do business. The machine learning technology is only in its infant stage, but it has already proven its efficiency in performing routine tasks in a broad array of industries, from retail, manufacturing, and healthcare to education and cybersecurity. However, while AI can be a huge help in detecting and fighting the latest cyber threats, experts are worried that artificial intelligence techniques could also bring more risks and even fuel cybercrime. "As AI capabilities become more powerful and widespread, we expect the growing use of AI systems to lead to the expansion of existing threats, the introduction of new threats and a change to the typical character of threats," a report warns. Researchers strongly suggest that before completely trusting the benefits of deep machine learning, it's crucial to take into consideration potential misuse of the artificial intelligence technology.

Suddenly, deepfakes are questioning the integrity of automated identity verification, which undeniably is the way to go for securing trust and efficiency in our digitized world. With money laundering and identity theft at stake, sophisticated anti-spoofing measures are required. While liveness detection is a trusted mechanism to secure the real user's presence, deepfakes are now creating new attack vectors. What are deepfakes even and what can biometrics do against them? And are they the real challenge for identity verification?

AI has changed the world and it is not going to stop. It's time for you to know what it offers. Artificial Intelligence has grown and been adapted to become a game-changer for conducting businesses in the 21st century. From eliminating guesswork from your decision making to making repetitive and mindless tasks redundant, AI has already become a major attraction among the biggest businesses in the world. As good trickle-down effect works, the rest of the world is also going through this inevitable development. Let's begin and understand what makes AI the need of the hour and where it drives our future.

The global autonomous vehicle market is already valued at an estimated 54 billion, and is projected to increase over the coming years. Self-driving cars are one of the more popularized and futuristic endeavors that people are looking forward to, and it's all made possible in part by big data. However, in addition to autonomous vehicles, big data is transforming the transportation industry in a number of other ways as well. From improving traffic efficiency to crash maps made with predictive analysis, here's what you need to know. City traffic can cause a number of issues for commuters -- in fact, it's estimated that Americans lose $160 billion in productivity each year, simply by sitting in traffic.

AI or artificial intelligence is a field of computer science that's been relevant ever since the first computer was created back in the 1930s. Over the years, we have seen countless AI applications in both the social and technological aspects of our lives, but there is a still a significant part of this rapidly growing field that is unknown to most people. We will go over 7 things you didn't know about artificial intelligence that could be affecting your life right now. Do you ever wonder why you have to figure out all the CAPTCHAs to identify yourself? Well, back in 1950, Sir Alan Turing devised a test to determine if the user taking the test is either a computer or a human.

How Artificial Intelligence can improve Software Development Process? Today, Artificial intelligence dominates technology trends. It has impacted retail, finance, healthcare, and many industries around the world. In fact, by 2025, the global AI market is expected to reach an impressive $60 million. AI has transformed the way the software industry functions. It brought precision, speed, and efficiency to the entire SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle). AI allows developers to focus on design and feature building rather than correcting errors in the code.
