Putting data in the hands of doctors
Computer scientist Regina Barzilay empowers cancer treatment with machine learning.
DeepMind’s AI has Learnt how to Become Highly Aggressive
In social situations, two AIs will also work together if the outcome
benefits them both … otherwise … uh-oh!
AI Learns to Solve Quantum State of Many Particles at Once
Google’s AlphaGo artificial neural network made headlines last year when it
bested a world champion at Go. After marvelling at this feat, Giuseppe
Carleo of ETH Zurich in Switzerland thought it might be possible to build a
similar machine-learning tool to crack one of the knottiest problems in
quantum physics.
Voice control everywhere
Low-power special-purpose chip could make speech recognition ubiquitous in electronics.
A Path to AI
Yann LeCun gives an overview of AI and outlines a path toward more general
and complete AI at the January 2017 Asilomar conference organized by the
Future of Life Institute.
The AI Threat Isn’t Skynet – It’s the End of the Middle Class
The rise of driverless cars and trucks is just a start. New AI techniques
are poised to reinvent everything from manufacturing to healthcare to Wall
Street. In other words, it’s not just blue-collar jobs that AI endangers.
Understanding Agent Cooperation
We employ deep multi-agent reinforcement learning to model the emergence of cooperation. The new notion of sequential social dilemmas allows us to model how rational agents interact, and arrive at more or less cooperative behaviours depending on the na…
Researchers add a splash of human intuition to planning algorithms
Incorporating strategies from skilled human planners improves automatic planners’ performance.
