Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, whenever we invented an automated technology, or something that would be done by machines instead of humans, we always feared that it would cause unemployment. Yet it didn’t. The workforce simply shifted from performing lower level, manual jobs to ones that required more intelligence. Is it still true, […]
Dah-Jye Lee, an engineer from BYU, has created an AI program which does not need to be calibrated by humans in order to recognize objects. Read the full story here.
Many of us remember IBM Watson, when it beat the human champions on the popular TV Show Jeopardy, three years ago. Since then, Watson has undergone constant improvements and has started to be used in practical real life areas, such as Medicine and Law. This is primarily due to its ability to process language, just […]
A major study for Artificial Intelligence and NeuroScience, called the Human Brain Project (HBP), which aims to replicate the human brain on supercomputer, has recently been approved in the EU. 87 universities and hundreds of scientists from leading research institutions across Europe will participate in the study, but the project has some important Japanese and North […]
In an effort to advance our understanding of the human brain, the Obama administration is planning a decade – long major undertaking for studying the human brain, according to a news published at New York Times. It is expected to be the equivalent of the Human genome Project done in genetics field, which paved the […]
IBM’s Watson AI program is a unique artificial intelligence computer system with a capability of grasping the slight differences in natural human language and answering the questions that are asked by human users. It has a wide range of data and can give answers even with evidences. It was specifically designed to answer the questions […]
The open source Robot Operating System (ROS) has recently celebrated its five year anniversary. We had made previous entries in Robotic Magazine about ROS, please see one of them here: http://www.roboticmagazine.com/software-ai/robot-operating-system-grows-exponentially which we had published when ROS was 3 years old. In that post, we were saying that the number of code packages had reached […]
