Researchers Succeeded In Creating Magic Tricks Using Artificial Intelligence
For the first time, some researchers in Britain have succeeded in creating magic tricks using artificial intelligence. In other words, for the first time, a computer has created its own magic tricks capable of fooling a human audience.
Google Partnering With Oxford University To Improve Its Artificial Intelligence
Back in January of this year, Google bought DeepMind, a startup focused on artificial intelligence and its possible future uses. Though the company has been relatively quiet on its efforts since then, work has been underway. However, lately Google has announced that it is partnering with Oxford University to improve its artificial intelligence.
Researchers Create Brain-Like Circuit Board, 9000x Faster Than Current Computers
As we delve deeper into the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), there is an increasingly greater stress on creating human brain-like circuits. A new circuit called ‘Neurogrid’ is a significant step towards that goal as it imitates brain and is 9000 times faster than current computers.
Stephen Hawking Warns About The Rise Of The Robots And Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence (AI) was a notion for lab researchers a decade or so ago. Today, each of us has a little part of AI in our handsets in the form of Siri, or Cortana or some other AI-based service. Stephen Hawking, the notable physicist, has now warned against the AI.
Google Acquires Artificial Intelligence Startup ‘Deepmind’ For $400 Million
We have seen a flurry of startup acquisitions by Google in the last year or so. The company has apparently set its eyes on the future of robotics. The latest in the list is the acquisition of Deepmind, an artificial intelligence (AI) startup.
Supercomputer Creates Highly Detailed Model Of Brain Activity In 40 Minutes
Fervent AI enthusiasts can keep saying that robots will be as intelligent as humans one day but that’s not happening any time soon. A supercomputer recently took 40 minutes to map only 1 second of human brain activity in detail.
Facebook Hires Machine Learning Expert To Develop Intelligent Photo-Reading Algorithms
Every day, we share countless photos and videos on Facebook. To be able to sift through this data more intelligently, Facebook has now hired machine learning expert Yann LeCun, who specializes in ‘deep learning.’
Hackers Create Iron-Man-3-like Personal Assistant OS JARVIS
Remember Jarvis from Iron Man 3? Iron Man relies heavily on Jarvis which is essentially an artificial intelligence assistant. Now, a group of hackers has set out to create a similar artificial intelligence assistant operating system and they’ve decided to name it ‘JARVIS’ too.
Teaching IBM’s Watson Slangs And Internet Abbreviations
Artificial intelligence is pushing new frontiers in today’s digital age. IBM’s Watson is a striking example, being probably the most intelligent computer in the world. Whereas Watson can converse with humans well, it still can’t distinguish well between the underlying subtlety of different words, something Eric Brown is trying to help it with.
Amplify Can Find Social Media Conversations About You And Your Brands
Artificial intelligence has come about to play an increasingly significant role in social media marketing. Different AI tools are being used to target niche audiences, send out automated messages and connect with them. Amplify, a new AI tool for social media use, ups the ante by providing a whole host of even more intelligent features.
Drone Strikes Will Always Be Human-Guided, Pentagon Assures
Human rights activists around the globe have frequently condemned drone strikes carried out by the U.S. However, behind this condemnation is the implicit fear that drones may one day advance to the point where they become autonomous in carrying out strikes. Pentagon has now assured that such a thing is not going to happen.
Google Improves Its Neural Networks, Achieves New Breakthroughs In AI
When it comes to major tech companies, Google is among the few who have always striven to achieve innovation and push newer limits, even if that may not immediately translate into money. The company has long been making use of extensive neural networks at its Google X Labs to accomplish the next level of artificial intelligence. And it seems that the company is quite close.
Researchers Bid To Place Honey Bee’s Brain Into Autonomous Flying Robot
Scientists from the Universities of Sheffield and Sussex have taken an ambitious project to build an autonomous flying robot that can sense and act like a honey bee. And to accomplish this, the team is bidding to install an artificial brain model of a bee inside the robot.
iRobot’s Military Robots Learn To Find Their Way Home
iRobot Corporation designs, develops, and markets practical robots that tackle dull, dirty and dangerous tasks for consumers, governments and industry. We have seen iRobot’s many robots that are that are engaged in home and battle ground, and serving people proudly. Now the company iRobot Corporation plans to add some new features in their upcoming robots that would help them find their way home.
Robots Being Created With The 3D Algorithms Of Artificial Intelligence
Day-by-day, robots are upgrading. In order to create future intelligent robots, future robots are going to capable of real-time autonomous navigation as they are going to have an internal updated three-dimensional map. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have designed a system which is based on advanced algorithms and a low-cost interactive camera. The 3D map will help the robots to explore unknown environments easily as they move around.
