@mastermark @Google Congratulations and let us know where you are going s soon as you can...

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

Had a lot of fun playing with some #robots yesterday at @automata_tech’s official launch event for #Eva, which you can see here kindly doling out a load of candy for the Macrina team! #robotics #innovation #technology #madeinbritain

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

Another example of a #regulation use case for #AI #technology, outwith traditional #financial #compliance. Social and news #media monitoring is an area where AI can become ubiquitous for providing oversight, as more and more #content is created. https://t.co/X6l0nrniCS

This is why AI has yet to reshape most businesses - cc @MacrinaAI via @techreview https://t.co/uWKmiLPT1z

On this basis, any otherwise useful item which has the potential to cause harm should never have been released. It’s not the #technology itself that causes harm, but users who deploy it indiscriminately. Simply blocking #tech isn’t the solution. #AIethics https://t.co/0zDVgLxxRf

[Christoph Lütge @chluetge]

Here is Trump’s „Executive Order on Maintaining American Leadership in #AI“. Lots of mentioning of ethical issues throughout, like trust, confidence, security, privacy and others. https://t.co/YPuevAehHZ

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

It seems that #Trump’s ‘American AI Initiative’ is more a rallying cry than a substantial effort to support #AI development in the #USA. Only time will tell whether this is just a #political manoeuvre, or the start of more active #government involvement.

https://t.co/QIkZ6XTIB0

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

It looks like the #USgovernment is now getting more actively involved to ensure the #USA stays at the forefront of #AI #innovation. We wonder to what extent the current tensions with #China have prompted this decision. #Trump #Tech #Politics #TradeWar https://t.co/Q9LdZzM5yz

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

We couldn’t agree more with @kaifulee! Whilst #AIethics is a hugely important topic, the fact remains that it is the winners of the global #AI race that will ultimately dictate how it is shaped. This is very much a zero sum game and #Europe cannot afford to sit on the sidelines.

[Kai-Fu Lee @kaifulee]

I respect the fundamental values behind the European policies, but choosing not to play in the global AI opportunity will cost dearly. I would think there is a better middle ground between values and pragmatism. https://t.co/K8gPfSRadF

See the attached for what may well become the standard #caveat for #AI application by #bigbusiness going forward, courtesy of #Microsoft. Does this mean AI has now gone full #corporate?!

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

Perceived #bias in #AI has become an increasingly hot topic as the #technology has become ever more ubiquitous in #business and #society. However, the understanding of how such outcomes are achieved is often deeply lacking. This is an excellent primer. https://t.co/Tbz8BOAB4j

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

We’ve all heard about #AI beating the best #human players at #games like #chess and #Go, but have you ever heard of the #MIT robot that can play #Jenga? You need to see it to believe it! Another cool #robot #video from @BBCNews that is well worth a watch: https://t.co/PV4ly9JbCb

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

Is this a glimpse at the #restaurant of the #future? A top chain in #China has just opened an outlet staffed by #robots from #Japan, working across both the kitchen and front of house. The short #video is well worth a watch! #robotics #AI #futurism https://t.co/tsAg1khanl

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

Interesting perspective on how #GDPR could potentially benefit #AI development in #Europe, rather than impeding it. However, note the European #data protection supervisor’s comments: individual #rights are a bigger priority for the #EU than AI leadership. https://t.co/xEmIUjMsMQ

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

An interesting opinion piece on #ethics, #diversity, and #transparency in #AI. It is vital to understand that 3 key components are in play - the #data, the goal, and the process. There is no such things as an inherently #biased AI; just a suboptimal one. https://t.co/BsMmQzurKS

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

An interesting case study showing how #AI and related #technology can be used in a #diverse range of industries for completely novel use cases. Also a good example of how AI can #augment, rather than replace, the role of the #human in the overall process. https://t.co/Y2VP29bC8P

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

Some interesting analysis by #BCG of #AI adoption across different countries and industries. These findings also support our view that #China currently leads in terms of #implementation in this field, albeit not yet in core #innovation. #DigitalTrends https://t.co/UOwBFBg2PS

[Macrina @MacrinaAI]

A useful summary of the key takeaways from the latest #AIIndex report. Some of the data provided does seem a bit outdated though, considering the significant level of #progress and #change in the #AI space over the past couple of years. #DigitalTrends https://t.co/0LLcjDK8ti

This could be well worth a read! #AI #Narratives #Perception #DigitalTrends
