This Startup Is Using AI to 3D-Print Its Way Into the Space Race
What will it take to make a trip to Mars viable? Relativity Space thinks it has the answer: Huge 3D printers, massive robotic arms, and, of course, some artificial intelligence (AI) development to tie it all together. If the company is correct, it could reinvent how we build rockets to reach the stars — and […]
Can AI’s Racial & Gender Bias Problem Be Solved?
Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are complex packets of code that strive to learn on given training data. But when this training data is flawed, not well-rounded, or biased, the algorithm quickly spirals into discrimination too. For women and minorities, these systemic AI issues can quickly become harmful. Where Does Bias Come From? Bias in AI […]
AI May Change How Medicine Is Made
DeepMind and other artificial intelligence (AI) developers are proving that AI has immense potential to improve the drug discovery process.
