Artificial Intelligence

BALTIMORE - Recent Johns Hopkins University graduates just made a huge stride that could help protect more women from cervical cancer using advanced technology.

Analysts and pundits predict that Open AI's new ChatGPT would bring about everything from the "death of the school essay" to the dawn of a new age of communication. But what is ChatGPT, and how could it change our lives?

The conflict that will define the next era pits liberal democracies against authoritarian / autocratic forms of government, and the battlefield will be shared between the literal battlefield as well as the development and deployment of advanced technologies, to include but not limited to Artificial Intelligence (AI). This was reflected in many of today’s comments around how the free countries of the world will employ AI in this conflict as opposed to how the adversaries of freedom will; discussion of this conflict was the key issue at the recent Special Competitive Studies Project Summit (SCSP).

In 1917, Marcel Duchamp submitted a sculpture to the Society of Independent Artists under a false name. Fountain was a urinal, bought from a toilet supplier, with the signature R. Mutt on its side in black paint. Duchamp wanted to see if the society would abide by its promise to accept submissions without censorship or favor. (It did not.) But Duchamp was also looking to broaden the notion of what art is, saying a ready-made object in the right context would qualify. In 1962, Andy Warhol would twist convention with Campbell’s Soup Cans, 32 paintings of soup cans, each one a different flavor. Then, as before, the debate raged about if something mechanically produced – a urinal, or a soup can (albeit hand-painted by Warhol) – counted as art, and what that meant.

Researchers from Boston Children’s Hospital and Yonsei University have developed a machine learning tool to predict no-shows in pediatric medical appointments.  

During a session at HIMSS22, panelists discuss how healthcare organizations can build and maintain unbiased AI.

Attendees will have access to mainstage sessions, thought-provoking interviews, live Q&As, and interactive deep dives, and will walk away with trusted strategies, ahead-of-the-curve insights, right-time resources, and emerging AI techniques. In-person attendees will have access to exclusive tours of MIT innovation hubs and onsite networking receptions with speakers and other VIPs at the renowned MIT Media Lab.

As supply chain disruptions pummel industries across the globe ahead of the holiday season, a simulation tool powered by artificial intelligence (AI) has the power to help businesses predict disruptions to their supply chains and minimize their effects, according to MIT Technology Review.

Scientists and engineers share a common interest in the evolution of complex systems. The role of a scientist is to delve into the depths of natural complex systems, while engineers are supposed to deal with the design and construction of artificial complex systems.

If achieving the intelligent enterprise were easy, everyone would have done it by now. The road to creating, or re-creating, a business optimized by AI to take advantage of machine-assisted decision-making at all levels of the organization is a long one. Two key questions are, how far along are we on the path toward achieving this vision of future productivity, and are there ways organizations can improve their odds of success? Companies are now directing billions of dollars globally each year toward AI development, yet more often than not, they’re frustrated by the lack of progress. In fact, only 1 in 10 managers who responded to a recent global survey conducted by MIT SMR and BCG could point to tangible returns. With AI investment expected to more than double to $110 billion by 2024, it’s not surprising that some leaders are asking whether that money would be better spent elsewhere in their organizations.
