The increase in how technology affects our day to day lives can be seen by everyone. From personal assistant tools like Siri, ordering anything at the touch of a button and yes, even self-checkouts… If you consider the capabilities of your mobile phone compared to your first, you can see how quickly things can change! Get our free ebook on how the Soviet Union became Putin's Russia. According to Oxford University it is believed that "47% of the human workforce will be replaced by 2035" - A staggering number! What job roles will still be around for humans in the future?

"Written by three experts in the field, Deep Learning is the only comprehensive book on the subject." Because the computer gathers knowledge from experience, there is no need for a human computer operator to formally specify all the knowledge that the computer needs. The hierarchy of concepts allows the computer to learn complicated concepts by building them out of simpler ones; a graph of these hierarchies would be many layers deep. This book introduces a broad range of topics in deep learning. The text offers mathematical and conceptual background, covering relevant concepts in linear algebra, probability theory and information theory, numerical computation, and machine learning.

As for the Graduate Trainee, the job encompassing within Development & Design the whole'value-added' chain involved in practically assisting and helping developing and implementing solutions that meet the needs of the customer. This includes the analysis of functional and technical requirements, and the design and build of solutions that may be in-house, off-the-shelf or through third-parties, as well as to contribute to the provision of any Configuration, Testing, or Documentation services required to successfully integrate and implement the final solution.

New innovations, new technologies and new ways of thinking are driving business forward at an unprecedented pace. Robots will take your job. Artificial Intelligence makes you an extension of a machine. Escape from your old job because it won't exist in 5 years anymore, and become an IT nerd while you still can! In a way it is, so where did the humanity go from the Human Resources?

It is about time, that HR enters into newer more advanced territories. WebHR has been a "lucky star" to almost do things before the market catches up with it, introducing the latest trends and technologies at a rocket pace. WebHR has a more agile focus and is targeting consumers with precision now, it has a habit of engaging in rapid innovation and upgrades. That includes the use of Bots and AI to simulate a conversation, creating a co-worker or an assistant that deals with your day to day HR related tasks. The revolution has carried WebHR on a wave of new discoveries and now, it not only uses the chat-bots but has ventured into merging HR with AI enabled devices, specially "Amazon Echo" using its virtual assistant Alexa, which acts as your personal HR buddy.

Many have lauded the latest phone from Google, the Pixel 2, applauding its ability to showcase the emerging capabilities of artificial intelligence. Not only does the virtual assistant sound more human than other competitors' technologies, but it also does a better job of understanding commands and questions. Still, there's a distinct difference between responding to short queries and understanding the nuances of conversation, and Google's "AI" hasn't quite made that leap. Current iterations of AI are actually a combination of traditional algorithms with modern computing power and technology for processing big data. Due to extreme growth in specialized computing capabilities, it's relatively easy to design algorithms that make decisions based on statistics gleaned from large volumes of data.

Recently, a KPMG report was released indicating that Canada's FinTech industry is still quickly accelerating, particularly in Artificial Intelligence. Of all the aspects of traditional FinTech (as opposed to cryptocurrency and blockchain) that remain cutting edge, research into Artificial Intelligence is at the top. Already, financial technology has revolutionized the way people interact with their money and their bank. But Artificial Intelligence stands poised to take it one step further. "Canada continues to make strides to become a global player in AI, driven by Canadian government support and the presence of strong AI innovators at several Canadian universities."

If you consider the wintertime need to wear a heavy jacket into a warm subway car a "major wardrobe problem," Ministry of Supply has a solution for you. The Boston-based clothing company, known for experimenting with technology, has just launched a Kickstarter for its newest creation, the Mercury smart thermal jacket. It's an internet-of-things-enabled, heated jacket that's controlled by an app, syncs with Alexa, and customizes its temperature using machine learning.

When Hui Wu was growing up in China in the 1990s, she had two interests: fashion and math. The farming town where she lived was so small and poor the fields were tilled by oxen, so there wasn't much opportunity for her to explore the first interest, and she was a girl, so her teachers told her there wasn't much point in pursuing the second, since she would fall behind the boys eventually anyway. Nevertheless, she persisted, winning admission to an elite high school, and she learned computer programming in college. This was something a two-year-old could do. Why was it so hard to train a computer?

Artificial intelligence is part of the new frontier in medicine. In our Grand Round series, Dr. David Agus, who directs research on AI at the University of Southern California and heads USC Norris Westside Cancer Center, joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss how AI is transforming medicine and the risks it poses to patient privacy.
