This is NOT a post apocalyptic world where robots destroy everything standing in their way as they take over the world... yet. However, in our post pandemic world, education has forever changed thanks to hybrid and online learning. With the integration of technology in a classroom setting and lives being reshaped through remote living, learning is in a transformational era. With this changing environment comes the need for support and that support can come from the trending area of artificial intelligence. "As computer systems that have been designed to interact with the world through capabilities (for example, visual perception and speech recognition) and intelligent behaviors (for example, assessing the available information and then taking the most sensible action to achieve a stated goal) that we would think of as essentially human", Oxford Dictionary (2005).

What was the technology used? An automated phone questionnaire – using an artificial intelligence voice analysis system – graded officials as low, medium or high risk. No official refused to undergo the process, which measures the cognitive functions through the caller's responses to questions such as "Have you ever cheated in a boxing event?" According to the sports integrity expert and AIBA advisor Richard McLaren, the technology "bore no resemblance whatsoever" to a lie detector test and is used in military, diplomatic and insurance sectors by analysing the "cognitive functions of the brain through voice responses". "The investigators and analysts utilise the voice analytical tool to help screen officials," McLaren was quoted by The Guardian.

SAS partners played a bigger role than ever in the event this year, as SAS continues to move beyond its legacy direct sales days and invest more in its channel. TORONTO – Curiosity Meets Capability was the theme of the main keynote at the annual SAS Toronto roadshow for executives. The event this year was held Wednesday at the Globe and Mail Centre across the street from SAS's offices east of downtown Toronto, and there didn't appear to be a vacant seat in the house. Many of the execs in attendance were focused on AI, rather than being general line of business people, and the focus of the event was to explain to them how to optimize the chances of their projects being successful. "The goal is to demystify AI and walk through real world examples, to show why it's not that hard or that new," said Shadi Shahin, SAS's VP of Product Strategy, in the main keynote.

Where were you when we defeated the robots? If you missed yesterday's Starcraft II stream, we'll fill you in on the details of DeepMind's latest gaming exploits. Also, MoviePass is ready to try unlimited tickets again, and we've got another new phone with (almost) no ports. Rise and fly, humans.DeepMind AI AlphaStar goes 10-1 against top'StarCraft II' pros After laying waste to the best Go players in the world, DeepMind has moved on to computer games. Its AI agent, named AlphaStar, managed to pick up 10 wins against StarCraft II pros TLO and MaNa in two separate five-game series that took place back in December.

McLaren have given fans their take on what the future looks like as they presented a futuristic race car that can take to the tracks in 2050. McLaren Applied Technologies, the sister company of the Formula One team, worked extensively gathering opinions from fans of the sport and now present the 2050: the MCLExtreme which features an on-board artificial intelligence co-pilot, an electric battery that can be folded away and self-healing tyres. The work done by MAT encapsulates more than just the race car for the drivers in three decades time. They have also extensively given their thoughts on developments in driver human performance, racing tracks of the future and the fan experience we can expect to see in 2050. McLaren's research also looked at the tracks of the future and how the overall fan experience would go on to differ from now Pelosi says she is ready to discuss shutdown with Trump'any time' 'The Deuce's' Emily Meade wants intimacy coordinators on all sets In an extensive breakdown of the various elements that the MCLExtreme includes, fans raved given it is a 500km/h rear-wheel-drive electric car powered by a'foldable battery moulded to the aerodynamic package'.

What'd you do this week? If it didn't involve a historic trip into space then Richard Branson and Virgin Galactic have you beat. Other out-of-reach experiences include hopping behind the wheel of McLaren's 720S and taking a selfie on Mars, but we can all share the season-two trailer of Star Trek Discovery. First human spaceflight launched from the US since 2011.Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo reaches space for the first time SpaceShipTwo has reached space after months of testing, flying to an altitude of 271,268 feet before returning to Earth. The stay was brief (SST fired its rocket for all of a minute), but it was enough to both verify the spacecraft as well as conduct four NASA-backed scientific experiments that studied the effects of microgravity and devices that could handle life support and counteract vibration.

Imagine a state-of-the-art driverless car zipping along a road with a disabled, 90-year-old passenger. The car must make a decision: drive into the mother and child and kill them, or swerve into a wall and kill the passenger. This is a variation of the trolley problem, a thought experiment which dominates academic and popular thinking about the ethics of driverless cars. The problem is that such debates not only dismiss the complexity of the system in which driverless cars will exist, but are also moral red herrings. The real ethical issues lie in the politics and power concerns with driverless cars.

If the phrase "autonomous vehicle" makes you think of some four-wheeled pod tootling around the city, you need to think bigger. For all the talk of robo-taxis, the smart money says that when this tech comes for our roads, it'll start on the highway. And if you're looking for proof, grab your sunglasses, a trucker hat, and a ticket to Arizona or Florida--the testing grounds of choice for the companies teaching trucks to drive themselves. This week, we have news of Uber testing in the Copper State and startup Starsky Robotics sending a truck down a Florida highway, all by itself. Meanwhile, the titans of the auto industry met at the Geneva Motor Show, where the talk centered on supercars--and how to take down Elon Musk.

These are the first images of McLaren's state-of-the-art simulator that could be used to develop the next car you buy. That's because the sports and racing car legend's simulator will be used by car manufacturers to develop and test vehicles of the future. This is Money and MailOnline's Rob Hull was granted an exclusive first peek at the new road-car simulator - a more advanced edition of the Formula 1 version currently used by Fernando Alonso, Stoffel Vandoorne and other drivers to hone their racing skills. He visited McLaren's motoring headquarters to find out why there's a growing demand for vehicle simulation, in what other scenarios it can be incorporated and - to his own detriment - what it's like to use one? Exclusive: These are the first images of McLaren's new'MTS Vehicle Dynamics Simulator' that will be used by the brand and other manufacturers to test and develop their cars of the future If anybody knows the answer to questions like these it's McLaren - it's been using simulators as part of its Formula 1 programme since 1997.
