AI is blurring the lines between in-store retail and ecommerce
Putting artificial intelligence (AI) to work within the fashion trade is nothing new really. And technology has frequently been pressed into service to improve retail experiences, with new innovations supporting brick-and-mortar outlets as they pursued higher profit margins. And all along, ecommerce platforms have improved their services with the help of digital tools. Prior to this, customers might have been able to order custom-fitted clothing from physical stores, 3D printed to their body sizes. In its first virtual show, the Shanghai Fashion Week tapped the potential of live-streaming, 5G technology, and the digital marketplace to bring the show to a larger audience than ever before.

Unbiased launches data marketplace to improve AI and machine learning transparency with blockchain tech
Unbiased has launched its Data Marketplace on Telos, one of the most active blockchain platforms in the world. Unbiased works to solve current challenges faced by AI and Machine Learning, including transparency, bias, and quality of training data. The Unbiased Data Marketplace provides privacy-centric and decentralised development tools to companies working with AI and machine learning applications, including data collection, annotation, labelling and analytics; all with blockchain certificates. The project was introduced in beta in March 2020, underwent significant upgrades, and is now live for commercial use. Today, most dataset generation tools for training supervised machine learning and AI algorithms are centralised, with no transparency in the process.

A UK University Is 'Fingerprinting' National Archives With Blockchain - CoinDesk
The U.K.'s University of Surrey has announced that it's securing digital government records of national video archives around the world against tampering using blockchain tech and artificial intelligence (AI). In a press release provided to CoinDesk, the university said its Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing (CVSSP) has teamed up with the Open Data Institute and the National Archives in the U.K. to develop what it calls a "highly secure, decentralised computer vision and blockchain based system" called ARCHANGEL, which is designed to preserve the integrity of digital archives for the long term. Computer vision is a field in which computers are programmed to analyze and understand digital images or videos. The system "essentially provides a digital fingerprint for archives, making it possible to verify their authenticity," according to project lead at the University of Surrey, Professor John Collomosse. ARCHANGEL uses blockchain tech as a database maintained by a number of archives.

Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain Tech, Wearables for Live Concerts: Techstars Music Incubator Unveils First Class
Artificial intelligence ( AI) is the latest buzz word of the tech industry, with smart algorithms powering your personal assistants and recommending which TV shows to binge on next. And now, AI is getting ready to make music: Brisbane, Australia-based digital music startup Popgun wants to use machine learning to figure out which music is trending on services like Apple Music and Spotify - and then train algorithms to write songs that the users of these services may also like. Popgun is just one of eleven music startups that are part of the inaugural Techstars Music class, a new program run by tech incubator Techstars that gives participating companies $120,000 launch capital as well as a three-month incubation program hosted in Los Angeles. Others include Hurdl, a Nashville-based startup that wants to incorporate wireless LED bracelets into live concerts; Jaak, a London-based startup that is building a rights management system based on the same technology as the crypto-currency Bitcoin; Weav, a new York-based company that is developing generative music for fitness studios that's timed to your heartbeat; and Pippa, a New York-based startup that is working on dynamic ad insertion for podcasts. Techstars Music is being led by Bob "Moz" Moczydlowsky, who previously headed Twitter's music efforts.

Blockchain Tech, Wearables & AI to Transform Insurance
CommerzVentures, the fintech venture capital fund of Commerzbank, has released a white paper highlighting the key technologies which it believes will transform the insurance industry. Aimed at providing insights into their potential uses in the insurance sector, CommerzVentures' 'Emerging Technologies Transforming the 4tn Insurance Industry' paper explores how the insurance chain value will be transformed by technological innovations. Innovations such as artificial intelligence, connected devices, drones, blockchain tech, among others, are enabling new value propositions and distribution methods, the firm says. Effectively cooperating with startups may be the only way for incumbent insurers to fend off potential competitors such as Google, Amazon, Facebook and other non-traditional players, it argues. Generating over US 4 billion in global revenue, insurance is one of the two major sectors within fintech and the largest long-term opportunity, and yet insurtech companies have received 12 times less funding than bankingtech.
IBM Watson is Working to Bring AI to the Blockchain - CoinDesk
IBM is currently attempting to merge artificial intelligence and the blockchain into a single, powerful prototype. With blockchain tech's promise of near-frictionless value exchange and artificial intelligence's ability to accelerate the analysis of massive amounts of data, the joining of the two could mark the beginning of an entirely new paradigm. Over the past three months, IBM's chief architect in charge of Internet of Things security Tim Hahn has focused specifically on introducing the blockchain to his company's artificially intelligent computer named Watson. "What we're doing with blockchain and devices is enabling the information those devices supply to effect the blockchain…You begin to approach the kind of things we see in movies." Potential applications include using distributed ledgers to let devices perform tasks like running self-diagnoses at set times and more advanced services that may someday let regulators virtually go back in time to the point where a device failed and "to identify exactly what went wrong," Hahn said.
