AI Can Finally Explain Its Thought Process (Sort Of)
Artificial intelligence (AI) that can comprehend and explain its thoughts is a “holy grail” in the field — one that the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is dedicating $2 billion to over the next five years towards. Now, a team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) says they’ve accomplished the […]
Can Machine Learning Be Used to Predict Earthquakes?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is profoundly powerful. In the past, we’ve covered stories of how this technology is impacting enterprise applications, MedTech innovation, and the FinTech industry. But today’s topic is certainly a new one — scientists have developed machine learning to predict aftershock patterns of earthquakes. Analyzing Aftershocks “If you think about making forecasts of […]
AI Is Entering the Sales Business
Artificial intelligence (AI) is divisive when it comes to interactions. Either it comes off as robotic and unhuman-like or eerily authentic to the point of discomfort. But by giving AI more of a human touch, Boston-based developer Talla just may have hit the sweet spot with its “next-generation knowledge base,” a descendant of the company’s first […]
