AI is becoming increasingly embedded in many of the things we interact with and use on a daily basis. AI is becoming increasingly more advanced over time, with some remarkable capabilities emerging over the past few years. There are many real-world, practical examples organizations and governments are using AI for their day-to-day activities. So, AI is a real thing, right? Well, on the other hand there's still substantial hype when it comes to AI.

I went to my first in person meeting since February 2020 last week! How to be? Wonderful and scary!) It was an enjoyable Responsible Tech Meet Up hosted by Cennydd Bowles and inspired by the All Tech Is Human meet ups held elsewhere. It was great and depressing to hear the inside stories from folks at the heart of trying to make tech responsible and accountable, the problems they face and their indefatigable efforts to create change. We got talking about'What Worked' to persuade companies and governments to change to more'responsible' behaviour.

In April, the European Commission released a wide-ranging proposed regulation to govern the design, development, and deployment of A.I. systems. The regulation stipulates that "high-risk A.I. systems" (such as facial recognition and algorithms that determine eligibility for public benefits) should be designed to allow for oversight by humans who will be tasked with preventing or minimizing risks. Often expressed as the "human-in-the-loop" solution, this approach of human oversight over A.I. is rapidly becoming a staple in A.I. policy proposals globally. And although placing humans back in the "loop" of A.I. seems reassuring, this approach is instead "loopy" in a different sense: It rests on circular logic that offers false comfort and distracts from inherently harmful uses of automated systems. A.I. is celebrated for its superior accuracy, efficiency, and objectivity in comparison to humans.

Last year proved to be one of the most difficult periods of time for companies and governments all around the world due to COVID-19, and the challenges persist as we move further into 2021. Some industries were hit harder than others, like the industrial sector, where firms employ nearly 25 million people worldwide and generate $9.3 trillion in annual revenue. These challenges impact the AI domain as well, especially as consumer behavior continues to change. While some may believe everything will return to normal in due time, many of these changes are likely here to stay, and companies will focus on them when developing their AI and data strategies in 2021. According to Algorithmia's '2021 Enterprise Trends in Machine Learning,' the overarching theme this year is that organizations will place greater importance on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) initiatives.

Artificial Intelligence is seen by many as a great transformative tech. These questions make people shift from thinking purely about the functional capabilities to the ethics behind creating such powerful and potentially life-consequential technologies. As such, it makes sense to spend time considering what we want these systems to do and make sure we address ethical questions now so that we build these systems with the common good of humanity in mind. Will AI replace human workers? The most immediate concern for many is that AI-enabled systems will replace workers across a wide range of industries.

Anything that changes the way that people use social media is going to change social media marketing. Based on that fact alone, it only makes sense that AI is going to have a big impact on user activity and online marketing. Keep reading to learn more. Before we delve into tools like chatbots, image recognition software and marketing strategies using AI, we need to mention significant events that have changed how we're allowed to use social media. Events like Cambridge Analytica's role in the 2016 US election and more recently the streaming of terrorist acts on social media that have been game-changers for social media owners and users.

The pressure is on for companies and governments to address the ways that artificial intelligence (AI) is altering the future of work. In this video, recorded at the Aspen Ideas Festival in June, experts--Markle Foundation CEO and president Zoë Baird; Joy Buolamwini, founder of the Algorithmic Justice League at MIT Media Lab; James Fallows, national correspondent of the Atlantic; and Coursera cofounder Andrew Ng--discuss how to make the transition into this new age easier for everyone. Andrew Ng: AI is the new electricity. About 100 years ago, we started rolling out electricity in the United States, and it changed every single major industry, everything ranging from healthcare and culture to transportation, communications, and manufacturing are now all electricity powered. We now see a surprisingly clear path for AI to also transform every single major industry.

The risks posed by intelligent devices will soon surpass the magnitude of those associated with natural disasters. Tens of billions of connected sensors are being embedded in everything ranging from industrial robots and safety systems to self-driving cars and refrigerators. At the same time, the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are evolving rapidly. Our growing reliance on so many intelligent, connected devices is opening up the possibility of global-scale shutdowns. The good news is that natural disasters themselves, which Munich Re says caused $330 billion in economic losses globally in 2017, provide a template for how to mitigate the growing and catastrophic risk posed by AI.

One of the reasons leading to assess current definition of AI components, from a human and technological viewpoint, is to best understand the transformation needed to sustain an economic model rapidly shifting towards technologically driven intelligence. Beyond the skills, knowledge and culture questions, experts remind the strategic importance of AI for businesses. They develop their own approach of machine learning and outline requirements to generate more innovation. Applying Federated Learning requires machine learning practitioners to adopt new tools and a new way of thinking: model development, training, and evaluation with no direct access to or labeling of raw data, with communication cost as a limiting factor.
