The concept of using artificial intelligence to help mitigate dull, repetitive or manpower-intensive jobs within government is nothing new. For example, the Post Office has been using AI to scan, route and track letters and packages for several years now. Other agencies are using similar so-called low-level AI for everything from document processing to managing their payroll. Sometimes called robotic process automation, tasking computers with those kinds of jobs makes a lot of sense. A human could do the same repetitive type of job as well, but it would take much longer. And the human would likely get tired at some point and thus be more prone to errors and mistakes. Slowly, however, AI is starting to be asked to perform higher level tasks that are normally undertaken by humans.

From the technology that helps self-driving cars recognize stop signs, to medical advancements that help produce COVID-19 vaccines, to studying the unconscious bias found in algorithms, the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing and Engineering is involved in all parts of AI development. As artificial intelligence continues to infiltrate everyday life, IU's researchers are focused on developing these technologies, while working to ensure their research is safe and ethical. The Luddy Center for Artificial Intelligence is set to open this month, providing researchers a place to focus on the intersection of robotics, complex networks, health and social media. Kay Connelly, Luddy School's associate dean of research, studies proactive health and AI technologies that can help the terminally ill and older people as they age, specifically wearable devices. She said proactive health is like "Fitbit before Fitbit."

Artificial intelligence continues to affect cardiology with improved capabilities to diagnose certain conditions such as atrial fibrillation, and research is underway to learn more about its use in disease management, a presenter said. Although ECG watches were patented in the early 1990s, smartwatches of today are different because of lower manufacturing costs, changes in the regulatory landscape, AI and smartphone-based data transfers, Mintu P. Turakhia, MD, MAS, associate professor and executive director of the Center for Digital Health at Stanford University School of Medicine and a Cardiology Today Next Gen Innovator, said in his presentation at the Scientific Session and Exhibition of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology. The use of wearables today has increased due to more people having smartphones, with 81% of the population worldwide owning a smartphone. Approximately 20% of people in the U.S. now own a consumer wearable, which is increasing annually, according to the presentation. People often track several metrics using consumer wearables, including heart rate, BP and blood glucose.

"Another aimed the opioid epidemic currently plaguing the US, by harnessing machine learning to determine which patients were more likely to become addicts after being prescribed opioid treatments. " "Other initiatives include driving data-driven research into multiple sclerosis, developing AI-driven systems to assist those on low incomes with managing their finances, assisting the UN in driving its sustainable development goals and predict outbreaks of Zika virus." READ ARTICLE 5. 5 3 WAYS YOU CAN USE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO GROW YOUR BUSINESS RIGHT NOW Utilizing AI in your business marketing is more cost- effective and simpler to implement than you think. "Finding a logical starting point for bringing artificial intelligence integration into your marketing strategy is intimidating, no matter what your budget looks like.

But we're reaching a point where it's becoming a necessity for any brand looking to stay competitive."

AI is a new buzzword but there has been a lot of talk around analytics and prospects over a decade. Different approaches in Data Science and analytics have been originated in the field of statistics. AI has emerged on the other hand out of computer science as a practice and science of studying "intelligent agents". The way is to treat AI as extending conventional analytics with a new dimension, namely cognitive analytics, which is an extension of existing analytics forms. Conventional analytics stop at prescriptive analytics, based on statistical techniques. AI enables us to have cognitive capabilities in analytics - where human intelligence is mimicked.

Humans see things in a very similar way to computers, according to a study which quizzed people on images and asked them to'think like a machine'. Participants were shown blurry images and asked to choose between A or B of what they assumed the AI may have picked up. They found that 75 per cent of the time humans and machines picked the same answer, showing that both can be equally tricked. The findings demonstrate how advances in artificial intelligence continue to narrow the gap between the visual abilities of people and machines. Computers, like those that power self-driving cars, can be tricked into mistaking random scribbles for trains, fences and even school busses.
