Nearly every TV on the market today is a smart TV, but not every operating system is a winner. A media streaming device lets you pair whichever user interface you prefer with just about any screen that has an HDMI port. In some cases, such as with older or less expensive smart TVs, a streaming stick or dongle could even be speedier and less glitchy than your TV's built-in system. At home, these handy gadgets make it easier for cord cutters to watch the millions of hours of content streaming services provide without cable. And while traveling, a streaming player lets you watch your preferred content on hotel sets (without painstakingly typing in a bunch of passwords or activation codes). We tested out streaming players from Roku, Google, Apple, Amazon and more, gauging the usability and the performance of each to come up with our list of the best streaming devices you can buy. Google's TV Streamer, the Apple TV 4K, Amazon's Fire TV Sticks and Roku devices are the most popular players in the space.

Discover what Artificial intelligence is, and how AI is being implemented in both industry and research. In this course, you will take a conceptual look at Artificial Intelligence, covering topics like handling of data, preprocessing, model selection, and model evaluation. You'll see modern AI systems and their applications, learn about neuroscience and neural networks, machine learning, and more. This course will also introduce you to Natural Language Processing (NLP) and how it is shaping the data we handle and the decisions made on those processes.

Over the years the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in medicine has become increasingly important. A growing number of disciplines and branches of medicine are using AI in some capacity or other, they include radiology, genomics, oncology and cardiology, to name a few. AI assists researchers to solve complex problems that would otherwise be difficult, if not impossible! Find out more about how AI is impacting medicine, as well as research on future applications within this dedicated virtual issue, that brings together a selection of free articles and chapters from a variety of Springer Nature journals and books. This virtual issue is freely available up until 27th April 2020.

Roku's streaming boxes, streaming sticks, and smart TVs have a reputation for being easy to use, but that doesn't mean every useful feature is obvious from the start. Dig a little deeper, and you'll find plenty of tricks and hidden features that make the experience even better. Installing all your favorite music and video apps can be a pain when you're setting up a Roku for the first time. Instead of thumbing around with the remote, use the Roku Channel Store website to install lots of apps quickly. Just log into your account, search for the apps you want, then choose "Add channel."

When I was writing books on networking and programming topics in the early 2000s, the web was a good, but an incomplete resource. Blogging had started to take off, but YouTube wasn't around yet, nor was Quora, Twitter, or podcasts. Over ten years later as I've been diving into AI and machine learning, it is a completely different ballgame. There are so many resources -- it's difficult to know where to start (and stop)! To save you some of the effort I went through in researching all the different nooks and crannies of the web to find the best content; I've organized them into a big collection here.
