Marine veteran breaks down 'tragic' data showing increasing rate of veteran suicide

FOX News

ClearForce Vice President Col. Michael Hudson told Fox News Digital how artificial intelligence is being used to identify military vets who may be struggling with mental health issues. Veteran suicide has seen an 11.6% spike between 2020 and 2021, totaling 6,392 suicides in 2021 alone, according to the Department of Veteran Affairs' Veteran Suicide Report released this month. Cole Lyle, U.S. Marine Corps veteran and executive director of Mission Roll Call (MRC), spoke with Fox News Digital about the new report, explaining why veteran suicide is an increasing issue, as well as what the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) can do to prevent veterans from taking their lives. "It's a disturbing trend that after going down for two years, we saw spike," Lyle told Fox News Digital. "After COVID and the Afghanistan withdrawal โ€ฆ it's probably not surprising that we saw an increase in veteran suicide."


Team Plan Recognition: A Review of the State of the Art

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

There is an increasing need to develop artificial intelligence systems that assist groups of humans working on coordinated tasks. These systems must recognize and understand the plans and relationships between actions for a team of humans working toward a common objective. This article reviews the literature on team plan recognition and surveys the most recent logic-based approaches for implementing it. First, we provide some background knowledge, including a general definition of plan recognition in a team setting and a discussion of implementation challenges. Next, we explain our reasoning for focusing on logic-based methods. Finally, we survey recent approaches from two primary classes of logic-based methods (plan library-based and domain theory-based). We aim to bring more attention to this sparse but vital topic and inspire new directions for implementing team plan recognition.


New York City schools ban AI chatbot that writes essays and answers prompts

#artificialintelligence

New York City schools have banned ChatGPT, the artificial intelligence chatbot that generates human-like writing including essays, amid fears that students could use it to cheat. According to the city's education department, the tool will be forbidden across all devices and networks in New York's public schools. Jenna Lyle, a department spokesperson, said the decision stems from "concerns about negative impacts on student learning, and concerns regarding the safety and accuracy of contents". ChatGPT was created by OpenAI, an independent artificial intelligence research foundation co-founded by Elon Musk in 2015. Released last November, OpenAI's chatbot is able to create stunningly human-like responses to a wide range of questions and various writing prompts. ChatGPT is trained on a large sample of text taken from the internet and interacts with users in a dialogue format.


NYC schools block access to artificial intelligence chatbot - Gothamist

Students and teachers at New York City schools can no longer access a popular artificial intelligence-powered chatbot on WiFi networks or devices owned by the Department of Education, officials confirmed this week. "Due to concerns about negative impacts on student learning, and concerns regarding the safety and accuracy of content, access to ChatGPT is restricted on New York City Public Schools' networks and devices," Department of Education spokesperson Jenna Lyle told Gothamist. Created by the organization OpenAI, ChatGPT uses machine-learning to produce its own conversational responses to user input. It can present information in simple sentences, write in different styles and make logical arguments. The chat can even generate original ideas, along with well-written essays, poems and short stories.


Steph Curry's former coach says AI can help train the next NBA champions

#artificialintelligence

Steph Curry is currently celebrating another NBA championship -- just 10 years after the star feared he'd never play again. Curry's early years at the Golden State Warriors were plagued by chronic ankle injuries. In 2013, the team's new performance director, Keke Lyles, proposed a new explanation for the problem. Lyles believed Curry was overly reliant on his ankles for speed. The coach devised a training program that transferred power generation to the marksman's hips.
