"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." GitHub just recently introduced their AI tool called GitHub Copilot which helps software developers write code. But a lot of people don't know what the GitHub Copilot is, some aren't even aware it exists. That's what this article is for, to tell you all about the GitHub Copilot. GitHub Copilot is an AI pair programmer that helps developers write better code by giving suggestions based on the code being currently worked on.

Google is adapting its machine-learning models for Gmail security to battle scammers, cybercriminals, and state-sponsored hackers exploiting fear over the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic in phishing email attacks. The company says it blocked 18 million COVID-19 themed phishing emails last week. The blocked COVID-19 phishing emails targeting Gmail users would represent about 2.5% of the 100 million phishing emails Google said in 2019 it blocks daily. Google is also blocking 240 million COVID-related daily spam messages each day. From cancelled conferences to disrupted supply chains, not a corner of the global economy is immune to the spread of COVID-19.

It was a sunny afternoon last month when my smartphone decided to ignore me. Well, it didn't ignore my African American self, but it did ignore the carved face of a black man in a sculpture I was trying to photograph. Instead, it bracketed the carving of a white man's face to indicate that it was "seeing" him, while not bracketing the black face in the center of the frame. This problem of artificial intelligence having difficulty with black faces has been around for at least a decade. In addition to causing issues with commonplace activities, like taking pictures, it also raises a bigger question of how we guarantee equal opportunity across race in a world run on AI. AI is already ubiquitous and powerful, and it becomes more so every year.

Today Microsoft announced an update to the Seeing AI app that will include new language output options, including Dutch, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish. The iOS exclusive app was first released in 2017 as a free tool to help people with visual impairments navigate day-to-day life. It's built around a series of different channels, which users can select depending on their particular needs or circumstances. For the first time Microsoft's Seeing AI app will speak in languages other than English. Today's update enables audio output in Japanese, German, Spanish, Dutch, and French In one channel, the app will read out the text of any document the iPhone's or iPad's front facing camera is pointed at.

With the launch of iOS 12, iPhone owners were introduced to Siri's new Shortcuts feature that makes suggestions based on a user's routines. Numerous third-party apps -- such as Pandora, Evernote and even Google News -- already offer such integration, but one of the most eagerly anticipated platforms, Philips Hue, has been missing. Now, that wait is over -- Philips Hue users with the latest version of the app received Shortcuts support today. The update means that users can activate lighting scenes by using recorded personal phrases. In addition, Siri now learns when certain scenes are used and "suggests them for quick activation on the phone's lock screen, Siri search or Siri watch-face," Philips wrote in its App Store description.

Executing the perfect exercise move is as much about technique as it is strength. And fitness enthusiasts have been paying personal trainers for decades in order to learn how to correctly pull off the right moves. Now there's a free app that offers to do the same thing by using motion-tracking technology and artificial intelligence to help you perform the perfect squat. Called the Perfect Squat Challenge, it was developed by digital therepy company Kaia Health who consulted with physiotherapists and sport scientists to figure out a squat that most of us can achieve. Once you fire up the app, you're guided through the motion by a virtual assistant called Kaia.

There are 4 qualities of the universe that limit our own intelligence and the intelligence of every other person, collective, organism, machine, alien, or imaginable god. All 200ish of our known biases are attempts to work around these conundrums! The 1st conundrum is that there's too much information in the universe for any individual within the universe to process it all. We have our 5 senses (or up to a dozen depending on how you divide them up), and we're located at points within vast planes of space and time. So there's a lot of information out there (outside your house, across the street, on the other side of the world, throughout the galaxy, and back in time) that we have missed and will continue to miss.

Most laptops come with their own virtual assistants. Amazon's Alexa has been the odd assistant out. Without a desktop OS of its own, it's been absent from this arena even as it's emerged as the most helpful virtual assistant and the Amazon Echo line dominated smart-speaker sales. But in a curious, although not entirely unexpected move, Alexa is now available on some Windows 10 PCs. Acer's new Spin 3 and Spin 5 lines both come with Alexa pre-installed, while its gaming laptop and all-in-one desktop setups will arrive with Alexa integration in the coming weeks.
