Interactions between the government officials and civilians affect public wellbeing and the state legitimacy that is necessary for the functioning of democratic society. Police officers, the most visible and contacted agents of the state, interact with the public more than 20 million times a year during traffic stops. Today, these interactions are regularly recorded by body-worn cameras (BWCs), which are lauded as a means to enhance police accountability and improve police-public interactions. However, the timely analysis of these recordings is hampered by a lack of reliable automated tools that can enable the analysis of these complex and contested police-public interactions. This article proposes an approach to developing new multi-perspective, multimodal machine learning (ML) tools to analyze the audio, video, and transcript information from this BWC footage. Our approach begins by identifying the aspects of communication most salient to different stakeholders, including both community members and police officers. We move away from modeling approaches built around the existence of a single ground truth and instead utilize new advances in soft labeling to incorporate variation in how different observers perceive the same interactions. We argue that this inclusive approach to the conceptualization and design of new ML tools is broadly applicable to the study of communication and development of analytic tools across domains of human interaction, including education, medicine, and the workplace.


Capitalizing on machine learning with collaborative, structured enterprise tooling teams

MIT Technology Review

Most MLOps teams have people with extensive software development skills who love to build things. But the continuous build of new AI/ML tools must also be balanced with risk efficiency, governance, and risk mitigation. Many engineers today are experimenting with new generative AI capabilities. It's exciting to think about the possibilities that something like code generation can unlock for efficiency and standardization, but auto-generated code also requires sophisticated risk management and governance processes before it can be accepted into any production environment. Furthermore, a one-size-fits-all approach to things like generating code won't work for most companies, which have industry, business, and customer-specific circumstances to account for.


Bridging the expectation-reality gap in machine learning

MIT Technology Review

There is no quick-fix to closing this expectation-reality gap, but the first step is to foster honest dialogue between teams. Then, business leaders can begin to democratize ML across the organization. Democratization means both technical and non-technical teams have access to powerful ML tools and are supported with continuous learning and training. Non-technical teams get user-friendly data visualization tools to improve their business decision-making, while data scientists get access to the robust development platforms and cloud infrastructure they need to efficiently build ML applications. At Capital One, we've used these democratization strategies to scale ML across our entire company of more than 50,000 associates.


AI OFFERS HOPE TO REDUCE SUICIDES – DURKKAS INFOTECH

#artificialintelligence

AI and ML tools are deployed to minimize cases and enable faster response. AI algorithms recognize people's behavior and mental activity based on trained datasets to support suicide management. Solving the problem of suicide requires recognizing patterns and acting quickly to avoid negative consequences. Emerging therapeutic approaches include conversational chatbots designed to accelerate human-like conversations with voice or text responses. Chatbots, computer programs, can mediate psychiatric interventions for depression and tension that rely on cognitive behavioral therapy.


The Only 3 ML Tools You Need. At a rapid pace, many machine learning…

#artificialintelligence

At a rapid pace, many machine learning techniques have moved from proof of concepts to powering crucial pieces of technology that people rely on daily. In attempts to capture this newly unlocked value, many teams have found themselves caught up in the fervor of productionizing machine learning in their product without the right tools to do so successfully. The truth is, we are in the early innings of defining what the right tooling suite will look like for building, deploying, and iterating on machine learning models. In this piece we will talk about the only 3 ML tools you need to make your team successful in applying machine learning in your product. Before we jump into our ML stack recommendations, let's turn our attention quickly to how the tooling that the software engineering industry has settled on.


Machine learning operations offer agility, spur innovation

MIT Technology Review

The main function of MLOps is to automate the more repeatable steps in the ML workflows of data scientists and ML engineers, from model development and training to model deployment and operation (model serving). Automating these steps creates agility for businesses and better experiences for users and end customers, increasing the speed, power, and reliability of ML. These automated processes can also mitigate risk and free developers from rote tasks, allowing them to spend more time on innovation. This all contributes to the bottom line: a 2021 global study by McKinsey found that companies that successfully scale AI can add as much as 20 percent to their earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT). "It's not uncommon for companies with sophisticated ML capabilities to incubate different ML tools in individual pockets of the business," says Vincent David, senior director for machine learning at Capital One.


Council Post: 16 Tips To Help Small Businesses Start Leveraging AI/ML

#artificialintelligence

There are stories across business-focused media about how companies should be leveraging the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning to streamline operations, improve customer service, boost marketing campaigns and more. Smaller businesses may well want to get in on the action and tap into the capabilities of AI/ML, but their leaders may think it's simply too expensive and, therefore, out of reach. Even if a small business can't make instantaneous, sweeping changes through AI/ML, it may still be the right time to take the first steps on the journey of building a strategy. Or, there may be AI/ML tools already in the marketplace that can help a small business make targeted, but meaningful, improvements. Below, 16 members of Forbes Technology Council share a variety of tips for small businesses interested in leveraging the power of AI/ML, from the best ways to get started to recommendations for the functions they might want to consider improving first.


🔵 How ML tools can Enhance your Creativity

#artificialintelligence

An AI artist regularly incorporates artificial intelligence and machine learning in their creative process. AI can range from integrating ML creatures into the creation process to integrating a real-time device into an interactive installation. Social media is used as a space, data as air, and machine learning as a chisel. This article will provide you with helpful insights into how AI can enhance artistic practice and what you need to know before working alongside artificial intelligence.


Why Unify?

#artificialintelligence

"What is the point of unifying all ML frameworks?" you may ask. You may be perfectly happy with the framework you currently use, and that's great! We live in a time where great ML tools are in abundance, and that's a wonderful thing! We'll give two clear examples of how Ivy can streamline your ML workflow and save you weeks of development time. Let's say DeepMind release an awesome paper in JAX, and you'd love to try it out using your own framework of choice.


The Potential of Data Science in Combating Climate Change

#artificialintelligence

ML can address traffic congestion that aggravates air quality and squanders fuel via traffic classification and prediction. According to Xtelligent, who is funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation, 1970's technology still controls 98 percent of signalized intersections in the country. Sensor technologies can connect city intersections, manage traffic signal networks in real-time and inject more sustainability into traffic management issues. Airlines are also looking to optimize air traffic flow to minimize miles and fuel usage using AI-powered flight prediction. AI and ML tools can help airlines plan, track and act on recommendations for flight rerouting to sidestep problems like poor weather or congested airspace.
