Drive.ai is an autonomous car developer that currently has a fleet of test vehicles in Texas. It recently published an article on its Medium page that goes into detail on how it processes data, how it visualizes it and how it's using deep-learning AI to speed up the conversion from raw data into usable information. One of the things we found fascinating was the time scale that Drive.ai Currently, for every hour of on-road autonomous car driving, it takes 800 human hours to process that data so Drive.ai's The process is called annotation, and it's critical to being able to understand what happens on a drive.

Science has proven what many a beer drinker probably already knows – drinking beer makes you nicer and more likely to be attracted to others.

Researchers had an equal number of both sexes engage in a wide variety of tasks, including face recognition, empathy and sexual arousal tests while drinking either regular beer with alcohol or a non-alcoholic brew. The study found that those who drank beer with alcohol wanted to be around others and drinking also made people more talkative. The desire to be more social was also more pronounced in women and in those study participants with higher initial inhibitions.
