Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“…the right kind of AI can improve the way humans relate to one another… For instance, the political scientist Kevin Munger directed specific kinds of bots to intervene after people sent racist invective to other people online. He showed that, under certain circumstances, a bot that simply reminded the perpetrators that their […]

Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“In search of a solution to this problem [of the variable nature of wind as a renewable energy source], last year DeepMind and Google started applying machine learning algorithms to 700 megawatts of wind power capacity in the central United States. These wind farms — part of Google’s global fleet of renewable energy projects — collectively […]

Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“Applying just a bit of strain to a piece of semiconductor or other crystalline material can deform the orderly arrangement of atoms in its structure enough to cause dramatic changes in its properties, such as the way it conducts electricity, transmits light, or conducts heat. Now, a team of researchers at MIT and […]

The 91st Academy Awards this Sunday, the first without a host in 30 years, proceeded without a hitch and seemed to sit well with the worldwide audience. For the third year in a row, we applied the BigML Machine Learning platform to predict the winners. This year, we got 4 out of 8 right for […]

Following the success of predicting 6 out of 6 for the Oscars last year, we have the bar set high for using Machine Learning to predict the 2019 Oscars winners. This year, however, the results are not as obvious. For some of the top categories, our projected results show ties for who gets to take home the […]

We recently announced the strategic alliance between Jidoka and BigML, where we explained the integration of RPA with other technologies such as Machine Learning. With this integration, Jidoka can provide Machine Learning capabilities in their RPA process automation platform. To explain the advantages and possibilities offered by this integration, today we present a practical example […]

It’s that time of the year when movie fans around the world get glued to their TVs sucking in everything the Oscars have come to represent over the years: the nominees and the snubs, celebrities, designer outfits, rumors of impending breakups or newcomers making the waves, and oh yes, also some of the best movies […]

#Awesome“…A group of researchers in the United States and China has tested a potential remedy for all-too-human frailties: artificial intelligence. In a paper published on Monday in Nature Medicine, the scientists reported that they had built a system that automatically diagnoses common childhood conditions — from influenza to meningitis — after processing the patient’s symptoms, history, lab results and […]

Awesome, not awesome.#Awesome“DeepMind specializes in “deep learning,” a type of artificial intelligence that is rapidly changing drug discovery science. A growing number of companies are applying similar methods to other parts of the long, enormously complex process that produces new medicines. These A.I. techniques can speed up many aspects of drug discovery and, in some […]
