How Data & AI Can Help Make Utility Line Inspections Safer
Electricity is fundamental to our society. As climate change becomes more severe and demand for clean energy increases, the future is the electrification of everything and along with it, the need for reliable energy. The U.S. infrastructure spans over a vast 200,000 miles and inspecting all of it is a time-consuming and high-risk process that often calls for hanging from helicopters or climbing tall towers. It is inefficient, costly, and dangerous. According to T&D World, utility line work is one of the top 10 most dangerous jobs in America.

BT Reveals Monumental Potential For UK Undergraduates In Booming Global AI Industry
Despite analyst predictions that the Artificial Intelligence (AI) industry will be worth £49 billion globally in 2022, a new in-depth study by BT has uncovered a lack of awareness amongst UK students about the opportunity to pursue qualifications in AI related courses. Where almost three in five (59%) higher education students said they were unaware of AI courses at the time of choosing their course, over half (51%) revealed that they would consider studies centred around AI in the future, once they had understood and received more information about what the courses entail. The findings are revealed in BT's report, AI skills: Motivation & AI careers myths debunked, which was commissioned in partnership with Yonder Consultancy, to understand how to grow and retain AI talent in the UK. Identifying additional challenges connected to the attraction of talent to the UK AI industry, the study found that 38% of higher education students perceive a career in AI to be dull while 42% believe that AI qualifications wouldn't give them the career they are looking for. Despite these perception issues, 66% of higher education students believe the AI industry to be full of ambitious people, and almost three quarters (73%) believe it to be a career that would allow them to solve problems.

Munich Re sees new possibilities for managing risk in data & AI - Reinsurance News
Reinsurer Munich Re sees data analytics and artificial intelligence as key tools to open up new possibilities for managing and covering risk, and for supporting insurers across the entire value chain. "At Munich Re, our goal is to pioneer digital solutions for the insurance industry," said Doris Höpke, Member of the Board of Management "So we have been investing heavily in data analytics and artificial intelligence, in order to support our clients with innovative methods and new products," she explained in a statement ahead of the industry meeting in Baden-Baden. Munich Re says it is focused on combining primary insurers' portfolio data with external public sources, such as site geography, building construction, weather, or socio-economic status. By applying machine-learning principles, the company then looks to discover hidden loss drivers and respond with loss-prevention measures or by adjusting pricing. "This means faster claims estimates and handling, and better pricing as a result of improved accuracy in risk assessment," Hopke continued.
