There's nothing like a nostalgic song to transport you back to a special time and place -- and now a new study has shown that music could help protect those memories for a lifetime. Researchers at the University of Exeter discovered that people who "engage in music" over the course of their lives tend to have improved memory and better overall brain health as they age, according to a press release. The findings were published in the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs gave the world its first look at the iPhone -- as well as a glimpse into a radically different future of personal computing and communications -- on this day in history, Jan. 9, 2007. "It's not just the bestselling gadget ever created: It's probably the most influential one, too," Wired wrote in a 2018 retrospective of the first decade of the iPhone. "Its influence goes far beyond other phones -- the infrastructure that made the iPhone also enabled drones, smart-home gadgets, wearables and self-driving cars." The iPhone offered a fingertip touch screen, a powerful camera and easy access to the internet, among many other features, providing huge advances over existing smartphones such as the Blackberry, Moto Q and Palm Treo. "Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything," Jobs, dressed in his signature black mock turtleneck, boasted at the Macworld Expo in San Francisco.

Do you have a great idea on how to put a spotlight on the impact of AI on freedom of expression? Or perhaps an innovative initiative for tackling the challenges brought about by AI? In the framework of the #SAIFE project, the OSCE RFoM is looking to fund a limited number of innovative ideas to put a spotlight on AI and freedom of expression. Supported activities can include, but are not limited to, the development of tools to counter freedom of expression challenges posed by AI; educational and awareness-raising activities; podcasts; documentaries; mini-series; exhibitions; and storytelling. For more information, see the call for proposals here.

Artificial intelligence is forcing industries to evolve at an incredible rate. By helping companies save time and money, AI is already revolutionizing productivity and customer service around the world. A Microsoft survey of more than 400 senior executives across eight global markets found that executives expect AI to benefit their businesses to positively impact growth, productivity, innovation, and job creation. A stunning 94% of them see AI as an important tool for solving strategic challenges. Artificial intelligence has already had a profound impact on the ways many industries do business ...

A breakthrough discovery shows that pterodactyls could fly from birth, something no other species before or since has been able to do. And British scientists said that the revelation has a'profound impact' on our understanding of the reptiles. The common belief was the pterodactyls, like birds and bats, only took to the air once they were fully grown. A new study shows pterodactyls could fly from birth, something no other species before or since can do. The findings have a'profound impact' on our understanding of reptiles Pterodactyls used both their arms and legs to push themselves off the ground during take-off, in a manoeuvre known as the'quadrupedal launch'. They were almost as tall as a giraffe with wing spans of around 32ft (10 metres).

Artificial intelligence could have a profound impact on learning, but it also raises key questions. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are no longer fantastical prospects seen only in science fiction. Products like Amazon Echo and Siri have brought AI into many homes, and experts say it's only a matter of time before the technology has a profound impact in education, as well. Already, there are interactive tutors and adaptive learning programs that use AI to personalize instruction for students, and AI is also helping to simplify some administrative tasks. But Kelly Calhoun Williams, an education analyst for the technology research firm Gartner Inc., cautions there is a clear gap between the promise of AI and the reality of AI. "That's to be expected, given the complexity of the technology," she said.

We just unlocked a Free Preview of our Machine Learning Engineer Nanodegree Program! Discover amazing new content, and explore your future in Machine Learning, today! The Machine Learning Engineer Nanodegree program has been one of Udacity's benchmark programs for over 2 years. Thousands of students have graduated the program, and many have gone on to great careers at companies like Google, Amazon, and more. As technology evolves, so does our curriculum, and we think much of the program's success can be attributed to keeping the content up-to-the-minute current.

Empathy must be embedded in artificial intelligence from the moment it is created to ensure it becomes a positive force in people's lives, Satya Nadella has said. Speaking at two events in London that coincided with the release of his book, Hit Refresh, the Chief Executive of Microsoft said new technology will have a "profound impact on our daily lives and do good" but companies must also be mindful of "unintended consequences". By ensuring the first wave of AI empowered humanity to achieve more, the technology that follows would be more likely to be a force for good, too, he added. "I believe in a world that will have an abundance of artificial intelligence, but what will be scarce is real intelligence and human qualities, like empathy," Nadella said. "I think great innovation comes from the empathy you have for the problems you want to solve for people. "We need to take accountability for the AI we create.

GE Healthcare and the corporate parent of two of Harvard University's teaching hospitals will spend the next ten years working on ways to bring artificial intelligence (AI) to every aspect of a hospital visit, the companies announced today. The Center for Clinical Data Science will include teams from both companies and will develop, test and deploy AI software at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Brigham and Women's Hospital, the Boston Globe reported. GE, which moved its corporate headquarters to Boston last year, is working to transform itself from an industrial company to one that develops software that powers equipment from MRI machines to jet engines, among other innovations, the article noted. AI -- sometimes called deep learning technology -- refers to computers that can sift through vast amounts of data and learn to become more accurate and efficient over time. Executives from GE, one of the nation's largest corporations, and Partners Healthcare (which owns MGH and Brigham and Women's Hospital), said integrating the technology into healthcare could help patients receive better care.

I've been reading and thinking about the future a lot recently, and decided to spend a week "nerding out" at Singularity University, to satisfy my curiosity. It was a great event, featuring experts from across the entire spectrum of technology and innovation. In this post I'll share the ideas I've been developing for some time -- based on my own research as well as time at spent at SU -- on how we should think about the future and the myriad opportunities it presents. I am extremely optimistic about our future being a world where powerful technologies solve some of our biggest challenges across a range of industries from medicine to transportation to energy and many others. This will result in a significantly better standard of living for all as well as many remarkable inventions, in the same way that we live significantly better and different lives than our great great grandparents did.
