How can intelligent systems revolutionise healthcare?

Futurum

Dr Narges Armanfard from McGill University and Mila Quebec AI Institute in Montreal, Canada, has set up iSMART Lab to develop intelligent computer systems that can support medical professionals. To tackle these challenges, deep-learning methods are being developed which can automatically learn and identify patterns from vast amounts of data.”

Given a defined “goal”, an AI can automatically work towards achieving it. Most of our existing intuition about “machinery” and “automation” comes from a kind of “clockwork” view of engineering—in which we specifically build systems component by component to achieve objectives we want. And that’s where we humans come in.

What Is ChatGPT Doing … and Why Does It Work?

Stephen Wolfram

And in fact the big breakthrough in “deep learning” that occurred around 2011 was associated with the discovery that in some sense it can be easier to do (at least approximate) minimization when there are lots of weights involved than when there are fairly few.

Often, it is enough to catch inconsistencies in audio and video streaming (AVS), such as subtle facial expressions that are not realistic, using machine learning. Artificial intelligence (AI) can be employed to make fake audio and video sound and look even more real. WHAT ARE YOUR PROUDEST CAREER ACHIEVEMENTS SO FAR?
