Will AI Take Over the Process of Invention?

Artificial intelligence (AI) development has made leaps and bounds in recent years — to the point that the technology is now assisting inventors in a variety of ways, such as identifying promising new materials or drugs. But what happens when AI is solely responsible for the actual act of invention itself? An Artificial Inventor Ryan […]
How AI Can Help or Hurt IoT Security

If there’s something that almost all emerging technologies are lacking, it’s strong cybersecurity standards and protocols. We’ve been developing innovative applications freely and creatively, but if we don’t keep an eye on hacking trends and enterprise-level security standards, we’re going to see customers, profits, and business value drop quickly. In fact, lack of cybersecurity in […]
AI and Machine Learning Are Transforming How We Learn

Take your seats. School is now in session. And artificial intelligence (AI) is here to help you learn better! From taking care of grading to tailoring coursework and helping students prepare for tests, AI is revamping every aspect of education. Let’s explore how. Re-engineering Learning At Gloucester County Christian School in Sewell, New Jersey, something […]
Predicting Mortality Rates With AI Could Save Lives

Artificial intelligence is impacting an array of industries. That’s because AI applications range from simple (chatbots and image identifiers) to extremely complex (using big data to find patterns and inform high-level decision-making). Due to its versatility, you’ve likely interacted with AI already while going about your day-to-day. However, for most of us, AI’s biggest impact […]
Why Machine Learning Isn’t Mainstream Yet

Thanks to great advancements in computational power, new algorithms, and better labeling of data, machine learning applications have flourished in recent years. From customer service chatbots to content recommendations, it now feels like this technology is everywhere. Unfortunately, much of machine learning’s potential is still left on the table. Technical constrictions and complicated barriers lie […]
Is AI Development Moving Too Fast?

Is the development of artificial intelligence (AI) moving too fast? Just a decade ago, AI was little more than a laboratory curiosity. Today, it is an unparalleled economic force that can be found all around us. But sadly, so can many of the problems that AI brings. Bias, deepfakes, privacy violations, and cases of malicious […]

How AI Drones Are Helping Wildlife Conservation Efforts

When wildlife conservationists Zoe Jewell and Sky Alibhai were visiting Zimbabwe to study black rhino populations in the late 90s, they discovered a major issue with how they were tracking the animals. By tranquilizing the rhinos and fitting a radio-enhanced collar around their neck, the pair were able to study the rhinos’ migration patterns easily. […]
The Top Mobile App Development Trends of 2020

2020 marks the end of an era in which we’ve witnessed a drastic transformation of the mobile landscape. At the beginning of this decade, many of us still had flip phones with limited capabilities. Today, we’ve come full circle — not only do we have smartphones capable of doing an array of digital tasks, but […]
