  5. 1 GARTNER IDENTIFIES AI AS TOP MEGATREND In Gartner’s 2017 Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies, the analyst firm had this to say: “Machine learning, one of the hottest concepts in technology, has the potential to change industries ranging from individual supply chains to drug research. With data management, a challenge simply given the amount of data, machine learning will allow for useful data extractions. “AI technologies will be the most disruptive class of technologies for the next decade due to the amount of data and the evolution of neural networks. Organizations with these technologies will harness the data to solve currently nonexistent challenges.” READ ARTICLE Source: https://www.forbes.com/sites/gartnergroup/2017/08/18/future-trends-in-the-gartner-hype-cycle-for-emerging-technologies-2017/#2740e4c04b97

  6. 2 DEEP LEARNING IS CHANGING THE WORLD OF SPORTS Originally posted on Quora, Arjun Dutt, Director of Inception: Deep Learning & AI Startups at NVIDIA, shares on Forbes how AI is already changing the sports industry through data analytics, computer vision, and speech recognition. “Canary Speech, a Utah-based startup, is building voice tests that use deep learning to pick up the subtle voice tremors, slower speech, and gaps between words that may reveal concussions. Its system uses AI and the patient’s voice to detect telltale shifts in vocal patterns — shifts human ears can’t pick up — to help medical personnel make the right call on whether a player should stay in the game.” READ ARTICLE Source: https://www.forbes.com/sites/quora/2017/08/16/how-is-deep-learning-changing-the-world-of-sports/#575246014a09

  7. 3 OPINION: “I WAS WORRIED ABOUT AI UNTIL IT SAVED MY LIFE” When Krista was diagnosed with breast cancer, she quickly realized that relying solely on human analysis could prove fatal. “The next four years were a blur of ultrasounds, biopsies, and surgeries. My well-intentioned network of doctors and specialists were not able to diagnose or treat what turned out to be a rare form of cancer, and repeatedly attempted to remove my recurring tumors through surgery. I knew something needed to change. “…While I was nervous about leaving my therapy up to this new technology, [machine learning]—combined with the right medical knowledge—was able to stop the growth of my tumors. I’m now two years cancer-free.” READ ARTICLE Source: https://qz.com/1056817/i-was-worried-about-artificial-intelligence-until-it-saved-my-life/

  8. 4 PAYPAL USES AI TO PROTECT PAYMENTS AND PERFORMANCE The next time you don’t recognize a transaction listed on your monthly PayPal statement, rest assured: AI will likely identify the culprit and help ensure it won’t happen again. “AI has been used at PayPal for a long time, it’s at the core of the company, distinguishing the good customers from the bad customers.” READ BLOG Source: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2017/08/24/how-ai-protects-paypals-payments-and-performance/

  9. 5 AI PREDICTS THE MELTING OF SEA ICE TO SAVE COMMUNITIES Arctic sea ice that once foiled bold explorers and led sailors to their deaths is melting as the Earth warms. But instead of making seafaring safer, melting ice creates new perils for ships, and the people in northern communities who depend on them for food, fuel and other goods. A professor at Memorial University of Newfoundland is tapping GPU-powered AI to predict when and where ships are likely to encounter dangers in the Arctic ice. “The changing climate makes long-term forecasting of sea ice and icebergs more difficult because ice conditions vary more than in the past.” READ ARTICLE Source: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2017/08/14/on-thin-ice-how-ai-predicts-melting-of-sea-ice/
