Samsung is kicking off 2025 with a lineup of new AI-enhanced televisions. The TVs come with glare-free technology and a suite of AI features driven by Samsung Vision AI. The Neo QLED 8K QN990F is Samsung's top-of-the-line model and it features a super-slim, minimalist footprint and an NQ8 AI Gen3 Processor. Its AI abilities include proprietary 8K upscaling, frame-by-frame HDR remastering, adaptive sound, color boosting and AI Mode, which automatically optimizes picture and sound based on the content on screen. These represent updates to existing Samsung AI efforts.

We've already seen DJI's Osmo Action 4 and GoPro's Hero 12 representing the rugged action cams of 2023, and now, it's Insta360's turn to unveil its take on this category -- one that focuses more on video quality than, say, its Go series' versatility. In a nutshell, Insta360's brand new Ace Pro can be described as a GoPro on steroids, thanks to its handy 2.4-inch flip touchscreen, 1/1.3-inch sensor, Leica tuning and, most notably, 5nm AI neural processor. You'll also get the usual "FlowState Stabilization," IPX8 waterproof rating (down to 33ft or 10m) and swappable battery (up to 100 minutes in 4K@30fps Active HDR; fast charging at up to 80 percent in 22 minutes, or to 100 percent in 46 minutes). Insta360 claims that combining its AI denoising feature with its new image sensor, the Ace Pro produces clearer and more stable low-light results for both videos (up to 4K@30fps in "PureVideo" mode) and stills (up to 48 megapixels). There's also an "Active HDR Video" mode which turns on automatically when lighting conditions are met, with the company emphasizing on improved color accuracy here -- we'll take a closer look at this in our review later.

Robotic process automation (RPA) has been well received and is making a significant difference to business processes across organisations. At its next level, RPA is being enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI) to transform business smartly. This is according to speakers at a roundtable hosted by UiPath in Cape Town, where executives discussed AI, automation the future of work. Michael Law, country manager at UiPath, told delegates: "RPA alone was last year. It has transformed areas such as finance and HR. UiPath is now bringing AI and automation together across the organisation."

As we become part of the following advanced age, the age of artificial intelligence (AI), it's not a surprise anxiety typically overviews the mainstream story. Worry of enormous task loss and also millions out of work as AI as well as robotics are applied on an international range. Yet as the Chief Executive Officer of Mondo, a particular niche technology as well as electronic advertising staffing firm, I picture this future as one of significant task development as well as chance. This future, nonetheless, is just feasible if we interact to direct AI as well as robotics innovation properly throughout all markets. To see evidence of why AI will not take all our tasks, you just have to check out background.

Summary: The argument in the popular press about robots taking our jobs fails in the most fundamental way to differentiate between robots and AI. Here we try to identify how each contributes to job loss and what the future of AI Enhanced Robots means for employment. There's been a lot of contradictory opinion in the press recently about future job loss from robotics and AI. They range from Bill Gates' hand wringing assertion that we should slow this down by taxing robots to Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin's seemingly luddite observation "In terms of artificial intelligence taking over the jobs, I think we're so far away from that that it's not even on my radar screen. I think it's 50 or 100 more years." There is essentially no effort in the popular press to differentiate'robot' from'AI'.

Researchers at Google's DeepMind AI company are teaming up with Blizzard Entertainment to release an API tailored for AI research environments based in StarCraft II. The company plans to make the interface available to AI researchers and developers next year. Blizzard's release of the API will open the field for programmers to create and train their own AI agents to play StarCraft II. According to DeepMind's Oriol Vinyals, research like this could lead to more interesting AI opponents in video games or AI coaches that help players enhance their own skills. Opponents in StarCraft II make quick decisions, have limited knowledge of the map, and make moves simultaneously.
