Kara Frederick, tech director at the Heritage Foundation, discusses the need for regulations on artificial intelligence as lawmakers and tech titans discuss the potential risks. Artificial intelligence is gaining new uses at a seemingly rapid pace, and the technology is now extending to applications in the animal kingdom. A new AI tool has been developed that allows researchers to use facial recognition to track the faces of geese, which biologists hope will help them understand their way of life and behaviors, according to a report from NPR. Sonia Kleindorfer, a biologist at the University of Vienna, has long studied the species, telling NPR she built off the work of Konrad Lorenz, who studied the birds and was even able to identify individuals within a flock after studying their faces. WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)? But AI technology could now make that easier, Kleindorfer said, creating databases and using facial recognition to track the movements of a goose with 97% accuracy.

The maker community and manufacturers have come together along with their 3D-printers to fight the pandemic. People ranging from garage hobbyists to established companies are 3D-printing equipment from face shields through swabs to ventilator parts. Telemedicine is a technology that provides medical advice to the concerned people in home confinement. Technology has found a quick fix during the pandemic. Telemedicine is a ready-made option, wherein, concerned people can consult doctors from the comfort of their homes regarding their symptoms.

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) mean that soon no-one will need to go on holiday, have dinner in a restaurant, watch a film, or even go on a date. Thanks to the miracle of technology, we'll be able to send the machines to perform these tiresome chores for us, freeing up valuable time for much more satisfying tasks such as completing our tax returns. This dystopian vision is obviously ridiculous, but it illustrates how we're getting the conversation about AI the wrong way around. Consider, for example, how most stories about AI focus on how technology can beat the world's best Go player, or write genuinely frightening horror stories. All this is terribly clever, but it doesn't help businesses to harness the power of AI.

If you have a child in your life who is headed in the "IT" / "Computers" (or honestly any job that will come in five years), please consider this valuable guidance.

If you have a child in your life who is headed in the "IT" / "Computers" (or honestly any job that will come in five years), please consider this valuable guidance. I can't cover AI without at least touching on this thought: AI is going to wipe out humanity. To a super intelligence that is in control of the planet, we will appear to be the equivalent of how ants appear to us – mostly pests who get in the way, even as we express passing appreciation for their "primitive intelligence." It is important to understand two incredibly valuable definitions that I've paraphrased from the brilliant Yuval Noah Harari. People who express the thought above mix the two things. Absolutely no one can predict the future a hundred years out (I encourage you NOT to Google Mr. Harari's prediction about what he sees happening 300 years out).
