For the first time, autonomous vehicles (AVs) are now being tested on the streets of Austin, Texas and Miami, Florida, without drivers at the wheel. Designed by Argo AI, the vehicles are also being tested in Washington, D.C., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Detroit, Michigan, and Palo Alto, California, as well as the German cities of Hamburg and […]
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) recently announced the launch of innovative platforms that are expected to speed the development of machine learning models. The first, the HPE Machine Learning Development System, combines machine learning software with compute, accelerators, and networking, which shortens the time it takes to get results from building and training machine learning models […]
Machine learning is quickly becoming one of the most popular technologies that companies are investing in. Experts are growing increasingly worried that these models have a dangerous propensity for making mistakes when it comes to applications such as image recognition software used to diagnose illnesses, or surveillance software used to recognize human faces. However, advancements […]
After thousands of organizations were forced to digitally transform during the COVID-19 pandemic, many leaders are wondering what’s next. While the adoption of digital transformation accelerates, the pandemic also continues to present challenges to organizations’ digital transformation plans. As such, leaders should prepare to deal with the unexpected, embrace new processes and innovations, and let […]
Machine learning is becoming the most sought-after subset of artificial intelligence (AI). As InsideBigData reported, 68% of chief technical officers (CTOs) are now using machine learning at their organizations, according to STX Next’s 2021 Global CTO Survey. (STX Next is Europe’s largest software development company specializing in Python.) The survey includes feedback from 500 global […]
With artificial intelligence (AI) technologies such as machine learning and neural networks rapidly evolving, governments are racing to regulate AI. As TechRepublic reported in November 2021, the consulting firm Deloitte is predicting that evolving AI technologies could lead to “enforced regulations in 2023 and beyond.” If that’s the case, organizations that make and use the […]
Mysteries in math and science have puzzled human researchers for centuries. Now, a pair of recent studies suggest that machine learning could help them make breakthroughs much faster. A paper published in Nature suggests new connections between the fields of knot theory— the study of mathematical knots (closed, non-self-intersecting curves embedded in three dimensions)— and […]
The European Union (EU) has proposed a first-ever comprehensive legislative package to regulate artificial intelligence (AI). As The National Law Review reports, the Artificial Intelligence Act (AIA) will “establish a risk-based framework for regulating use of AI anywhere within the EU, including by organizations based outside the EU.” If passed, the law “establishes a de […]
Machine learning models often rely on the simple features of a dataset to make decisions. Known as “shortcuts,” these types of decisions can lead to serious errors. For example, these shortcuts can cause models to make inaccurate medical diagnoses. However, a recent study from MIT poses a possible solution. By removing the simple characteristics of […]
Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) in which algorithms are trained to get better at solving problems on their own, similar to the functionality of a human brain. While organizations are rapidly adapting machine learning to enhance their business operations, many are failing to build machine learning models that work. Why do […]
