INDUSTRY TRENDS

Newsroom leaders are preparing for chaos as they consider guardrails to protect their content against artificial intelligence-driven aggregation and disinformation.

Salesforce and Google Cloud are teaming up to help businesses leverage data and AI via a new strategic partnership.

New tools from Google's cloud division give Priceline access to generative AI, like the technology behind ChatGPT that can draft text as if a human wrote it.

MACHINE LEARNING

Google announce today that its generative AI support in Vertex AI, the company’s machine learning platform, is now generally available.

NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING

At Snowflake, we’re able to see how cutting-edge companies are actually working with data on our platform. In our inaugural Data Trends report we examine actual usage data from those companies—rather than simply what leaders feel about their data operations—and surfaced four trends redefining the way modern companies succeed.

REGULATIONS

OpenAI is against regulating smaller startups in the field of artificial intelligence, Sam Altman, Chief Executive of the firm behind ChatGPT, said at a conference in India's New Delhi.

The European Union is leaning on signatories to its Code of Practice on Online Disinformation to label deepfakes and other AI-generated content.

Local Law 144 prohibits employers and employment agencies from using certain Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) tools in the hiring or promotion process unless the tool has been subject to a bias audit within one year prior to its use, the results of the audit are publicly available, and notice requirements to employees or job candidates are satisfied.

Although AI holds much promise for the healthcare industry, more work remains to ensure the technology is calibrated to the demands of clinicians and patients – a development which legislation could help shape.

RESEARCH

New machine learning approaches may help identify crucial factors that can forecast fetal heart rate changes after neuraxial analgesia in pregnant patients.

Researchers have proposed the creation of a personalized disease burden assessment and planning tool based on ChatGPT and the Global Burden of Disease study.

New updates to an AI model aim to determine protein activity within a cell to enhance the treatment of diseases.

Researchers at UC Davis are developing an artificial intelligence-based toolkit that can assess damages caused by wildfires to vegetated areas and accelerate the recuperation process for landowners.

The rapid convergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies has the potential to reshape organisations across both the private and public sectors (Daugherty et al., 2019). In particular, there is emerging anecdotal evidence that AI is influencing patient journeys and medical practices, with the potential to revolutionise the healthcare landscape.

Google’s artificial intelligence (AI) research lab DeepMind has achieved a remarkable feat in computer science through its latest AI system, AlphaDev. This specialized version of AlphaZero has made a significant breakthrough by uncovering faster sorting and hashing algorithms, which are essential processes utilized trillions of times daily by developers worldwide for data sorting, storage and retrieval.

PLATFORM ENGINEERING

MLOps teams are pressured to advance their capabilities to scale AI. KDnuggets teamed up with Ford Motors to explore how to scale MLOps within an organization and how to get started.

Artificial intelligence (AI) programs that train on large datasets require powerful compute infrastructure consisting of several CPU cores and GPUs. JupyterLab provides an excellent framework for developing AI programs, but it needs to be hosted on such an infrastructure to enable faster training of AI programs using parallel computing.

Today the company is launching a new tool, Blueprint, that leverages OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 large language model (LLM).

USE CASES

Manual document classification and extraction is still a time-consuming and difficult task for many organizations. This blog series aims to demonstrate how Google Cloud products like Document AI and BigQuery can be used together to help organizations eliminate manual document processing.

ADAPTIVE AI

Adaptive AI steadily enhances performance as time progresses by actively adjusting algorithms, decision-making processes, and actions. This dynamic nature empowers the system to respond more effectively to alterations and obstacles, achieving objectives with heightened efficiency and precision.

INDUSTRY CLOUD PLATFORM

Document AI is a document understanding platform in Google Cloud that takes unstructured data from documents and transforms it into structured data, making them easier to understand, analyze, and consume. By using this technology, you can streamline your document processing workflows, reduce errors, and unlock insights that were previously buried in mountains of paperwork.

SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY

Climate change is the biggest issue of our generation, so we need to make sure that people have the resources they need to make sense of the disasters that are destroying their communities. At Climate Cardinals, we’re focusing on translation as a vehicle for disseminating this crucial information to the communities most impacted by climate change.

GENERATIVE AI

Mayo Clinic and Google have announced a collaboration aimed at transforming healthcare through the use of generative artificial intelligence.

Leaders at enterprises know the limits of traditional enterprise search, with queries producing a list of links based on pattern matching, and significant manual investigation required to find the more relevant answers. In generative AI, these leaders see an opportunity to leverage their data more effectively and deeply, including applying it to conversational apps that can answer complex questions, produce accurate summaries that synthesize many sources, and help people get the information they need, faster.

RISK AND SECURITY MANAGEMENT

A new cyber-attack technique using the OpenAI language model ChatGPT has emerged, allowing attackers to spread malicious packages in developers' environments.

In the short term, we can expect to see a massive increase in attempts to subvert AI into traditional methods of cybercrime.

On pace to defraud financial and commerce systems by nearly $5 billion by 2024, synthetic identity fraud is among the most difficult to identify and stop.
