A horrific rape and incest video game has sparked fury by encouraging players to be'women's worst nightmare'. The game, titled'No Mercy', centres around a protagonist who rapes his family members including his aunt and his own mother. Players of the vile game are instructed to'never take no for an answer' in their ambition to'subdue' and'own' women. Despite its horrendous themes, the game does not have an official age rating and was available for sale on Steam, the most popular digital game store. The game's developer, Zerat Games, published the game on Steam in March where children as young as 13 can make an account.

From The Terminator to I, Robot, many science fiction blockbusters feature robots taking over the world. But a humanoid robot described as the'world's most advanced', has reassured that this plot is unlikely to become a reality. Ameca, a humanoid robot developed by Cornwall-based Engineered Arts, said: 'There's no need to worry, robots will never take over the world. We're here to help and serve humans, not replace them.' Ameca said: 'There's no need to worry, robots will never take over the world. We're here to help and serve humans, not replace them' The idea of lending your face to a robot may sound like the plot from an episode of Black Mirror, but it could soon become a reality.

The capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) expand year by year. Still, there are always going to be tasks that require qualities that are difficult--if not impossible-- for technology to replicate, such as creativity, empathy and emotional awareness. There are many tasks that would be extremely difficult to automate, and there are professions that will always require human skills. For insights from experts who understand technology's limitations as well as its possibilities, we asked members of Forbes Technology Council to share the jobs they believe can't--or shouldn't--be fully automated, and why. As AI is used to automate more activities humans do not enjoy doing, along with tasks they just want to be done, I believe we'll see a rise in artisan jobs, where people will value the human element of the job.

Will predictions that AI is set to take over many people's jobs in the coming years be accurate? There's been a lot of talk recently about the huge advancements being made in artificial intelligence (AI). Such gadgets were everywhere at the recent CES tech show in Las Vegas, while AI-assisted devices, from smart home assistants to business chat bots, have now become an everyday part of our lives. Inevitably, the key question many people will have about these new technologies is what it will mean for their working life. A lot of commentators have suggested that in the coming years, AI is set to invade the workplace, so naturally, people will be worried about what it means for their jobs. But are we right to be concerned?

Ever since Google announced RankBrain, a machine learning algo, there has been much speculation about what other parts of the search algo Google might use machine learning in. While they have said Penguin is not a machine learning algorithm, there is speculation that other parts of the search algo could incorporate machine learning, especially with comments John Mueller made recently about machine learning being used in a lot of Google's systems. During the breakfast keynote at Pubcon last week with Gary Illyes and Eric Enge, the use of machine learning in the Google algo came up with RankBrain being discussed. Enge then asked "It hasn't taken over the whole algorithm?" I can probably say that it will never take over the whole algorithm, or the core algorithm.
