New AI tool could cut wasted efforts to transplant organs by 60%
Thousands of patients worldwide are waiting for a potentially life-saving donor. Thousands of patients worldwide are waiting for a potentially life-saving donor. Doctors have developed an AI tool that could reduce wasted efforts to transplant organs by 60%. Thousands of patients worldwide are waiting for a potentially life-saving donor, and more candidates are stuck on waiting lists than there are available organs. Recently, in cases where people need a liver transplant, access has been expanded by using donors who die after cardiac arrest.

AI poo sensor app could save thousands of lives - just upload your stool snaps
Scientists have created a new artificial intelligence-powered app which could just save your life--by analysing your poo with a high degree of accuracy. Dieta Mobile asks users to upload photos of their business using their phones in order to have it categorised in line with the Bristol Stool Chart, a famous stool tool that helps doctors diagnose gut health and other health issues. According to the Bristol Stool Chart, healthy poo looks "like a sausage with cracks on its surface", or "like a smooth, soft sausage or snake." This is exactly the kind of poo Dieta Mobile is hoping to promote. The app's creators have just completed their first clinical trial of the app with promising results, suggesting that AI is better at categorising stools than humans.

Healthcare Industry is Benefitting from the Application of AI...
Healthcare industry has benefited tying up with Machine Learning, automation and Artificial Intelligence (AI). These three main factors have advanced the types of machinery of hospitals, insurance companies and help doctors understand the root cause of diseases with in-depth analysis tech. According to an industrial source, the healthcare industry will spend an average of $ 54-55 million on AI projects. Compiling and analyzing information like medical records, patient case history (past and present) is done with the application of AI networks and digital automation process. The data and information of a patient is collected, stored, formatted, re-formatted, and traced within seconds to provide faster and efficient access.
Blockchain-based Artificial Neural Networks To Save Thousands Of Lives From Medical Errors
When we consider quite how far medicine has developed worldwide in the past century, it could be easy to become complacent and assume that we have advanced our treatment methods and capabilities as far as possible. However, a 2016 study revealed some quite shocking statistics regarding healthcare mistakes; namely, that 250,000 US citizens were killed every year from medical errors, such as misdiagnosis or incorrect dosage administration by healthcare professionals. This technically puts it at the third largest killer in the US, behind heart disease and cancer. Estimates of the economic costs of these mistakes reach up to $20.8 bln annually. With human error being one of the main causes of medical mistakes, the healthcare industry is now able to turn to artificial intelligence (AI) for help.

Humans will be banned from driving within next 25 years
Humans will be banned from driving in as little as 25 years's time as cars controlled by artificial intelligence take over our roads, an expert has predicted. A UK expert has claimed stopping humans from driving is inevitable and will save thousands of lives. Omar Rahim, chief executive of technology company Energi Mine, said our propensity to let emotions affect our decision-making means we should not be trusted to drive.

How AI is helping farmers to save thousands of dollars – AI.Business
Food and agribusiness comprise a $5 trillion industry that accounts for 10 percent of global consumer spending, 40 percent of employment and 30 percent of greenhouse-gas emissions. This massive industry does not change easily, but change – transformative innovation – is precisely what's needed. We collected some examples of artificial intelligence techniques that can help farmers to save thousands of dollars. Three years ago Belarusian startup OneSoil was created. It's an online service to monitor the status of sown areas, which can increase productivity and save resources with the help of artificial intelligence.

Is AI evil? No, and that question distracts us from the real concerns, says AI2's Oren Etzioni
At times, modern artificial intelligence still feels like science fiction. A few decades ago, the kind of AI programs of today would have seemed almost outrageous -- self-driving cars, systems that have mastered the most challenging game in the world, and even programs that could alert doctors to medical errors before they happen. Despite the incredible progress and potential, public opinion of AI remains rooted in science fiction -- evil entities, out to destroy mankind. The area gets a bad rap in the press, in Hollywood, and even from tech and science leaders like Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk. Oren Etzioni, CEO of the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2) and longtime AI researcher, says this depiction of an "evil AI" is far off the mark from the reality of today's tech.

Obama administration clears roadblocks to autonomous vehicles in new advisory
Self-driving cars have the potential to save thousands of lives lost on the nation's roads each year and to change the lives of the elderly and the disabled, President Barack Obama said in an op-ed published Monday by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. WASHINGTON -- Obama administration officials are previewing long-awaited guidance that attempts to bring self-driving cars to the nation's roadways safely -- without creating so many roadblocks that the technology can't make it to market quickly. Traditional automakers and tech companies have been testing self-driving prototypes on public roads for several years, with a human in the driver's seat just in case. The results suggest that what once seemed like a technology perpetually over the horizon appears to be fast approaching, especially with car companies announcing a string of investments and acquisitions in recent months. Federal officials have been struggling with how to capitalize on the technology's promised safety benefits -- the cars can react faster than people, but don't drink or get distracted -- while making sure they are ready for widespread use.

INNOVATION INSIGHTS: How this Australian facial recognition business helped save thousands of lives
Artificial intelligence and autonomous cars are no longer exclusive to science fiction. Google's self-driving cars have driven more than five million kilometres, while some Teslas can drive themselves under certain conditions, and Singapore could see a fully autonomous taxi hit the streets by the end of the year. While all these initiatives are focused on what's outside the car, on equipping and teaching machines to understand and react to the outside world, it's also important to understand the people inside. The solution they created – a camera that can understand when drivers are fatigued or distracted, has helped save thousands of lives. The company traces its origins to a group of roboticists at the Australian National University in 1997.
