Politico became one of the first newsrooms last year to win a union contract that included rules on how the media outlet can deploy artificial intelligence. The PEN Guild, which represents Politico and its sister publication, environment and energy site E&E News, is now gearing up for another first. The union's members allege that the AI provisions in their contract have been violated, and they're preparing for a groundbreaking legal dispute with management. The outcome could set a precedent for how much input journalists ultimately have over how AI is used in their newsrooms. Last year, Politico began publishing AI-generated live news summaries during big political events like the Democratic National Convention and the US vice presidential debates.

AI can accomplish more with less, from manufacturing to telecommunications to food service. At the same time, it's a powerful tool for companies to meet or exceed consumer expectations. You may not realize that domestic and offshore banks also employ AI in several ways. Two goals drive the desire to make the most of this resource: lower costs while enhancing profits and providing a level of convenience that motivates customer loyalty. Here are some of the ways that AI is changing the way that many banks do business.

Model hyperparameters, performance measurements, run logs, model artifacts, data artifacts, etc., are all included in this. There are numerous approaches to implementing experiment logging. Spreadsheets are one option (no one uses them anymore!), or you can use GitHub to keep track of tests. Tracking machine learning experiments has always been a crucial step in ML development, but it used to be a labor-intensive, slow, and error-prone procedure. The market for contemporary experiment management and tracking solutions for machine learning has developed and increased over the past few years.

Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly significant in facility management. In particular, predictive maintenance is a significant application of AI in this domain. Predictive maintenance is the process of using data to predict when equipment will fail and needs to be repaired or replaced. This is significant because it can help prevent equipment failures, which can lead to disruptions in service. With the pressure on organizations to do more with less, Facilities Management (FM) must challenge itself to be a strategic business enabler.

If there's one thing that gets the attention of investors, even in uncertain times like these, it's data efficiency. Data is the fuel for machine learning models, and getting it from point A to point B can be expensive and time-consuming. That's why a startup that can help make that process move faster and with less friction is probably going to be valuable. Such is the case with Weka, a company that has come up with a way to virtualize data to make it easier to move between sources without having to make a copy first. Today, the company announced a $135 million Series D investment on a $750 million valuation, big numbers in today's conservative funding environment.

First line: Management (process/model owners) has the primary responsibility to own and manage risks associated with development and day-to-day operational activities. Management should have a baseline understanding of risks in AI applications and where they manifest themselves in the specific models and data relevant to the organization's use cases. Second line: Risk management provides oversight in the form of frameworks, policies, procedures, methodologies, and tools. The second-line function should have a deep understanding of the AI-specific risks and related controls and mitigation. In assessing the first-line functions, internal audit should assess whether AI development and monitoring adheres to the organization's policies, best practices for model development and relevant regulations.

Oracle's CloudWorld conference, held last week, featured a few new announcements in regards to leading large artificial intelligence and edge services, and a high-profile partnership between Oracle and NVIDIA continues the quest to make AI adoption easier as a service. Oracle Cloud also has some new applications in manufacturing and healthcare, and B2B commerce gets its own custom product. See our takes on the news from the conference below. AI from NVIDIA's accelerated computing stack is coming to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure as an expansion to the two organizations' existing partnership. Specifically, OCI users will now have the opportunity to access thousands of NVIDIA GPUs, including the A100 Tensor Core GPU. Advertised as the world's fastest memory bandwidth, the A100 can run at over 2 terabytes per second and is suitable for the largest models and datasets.

If you want to skip our industry introduction and jump ahead to the top five stocks in this list, then head on over to 5 Best Machine Learning Stocks to Buy. Machine learning refers to a set of technologies that enable researchers and others to use large or small datasets to their advantage by making predictions. It often requires breaking the data set into pieces, and depending on the size of the data set, often requires large amounts of computing power too. The basics of machine learning involve two kinds, supervised and unsupervised.
