How can intelligent systems revolutionise healthcare?

Futurum

Whether it’s tracking physical activity, monitoring vital signs, analysing sleep patterns or brain activities, intelligent systems can provide real-time feedback and recommendations to encourage healthier habits, behaviours, and early and accurate diagnosis and prognosis that may not be evident to the human eyes,” explains Narges.

Plugging in: directly linking the brain to a computer

Futurum

Brain-computer interface (BCI) — a direct communication pathway between the brain’s activity and an external device. The accuracy of machine learning provides another limitation, though this is a rapidly advancing field. Artificial intelligence (AI) — computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence.

Online battles: combatting false information and reducing online risks

Futurum

Deepfake — manipulation of existing digital media (image, video and/or audio) – e.g., by swapping faces and changing voices – or creation of new media, typically using machine learning-based techniques such as deep learning. For technical degrees and careers, subjects like computer science and mathematics can be useful.

What Is ChatGPT Doing … and Why Does It Work?

Stephen Wolfram

And for example the concept of “temperature” is there because exponential distributions familiar from statistical physics happen to be being used, but there’s no “physical” connection—at least so far as we know.) In this particular case, we can use known laws of physics to work it out.

Will AIs Take All Our Jobs and End Human History—or Not? Well, It’s Complicated…

Stephen Wolfram

For about three centuries it seemed as if mathematical equations were the ultimate way to describe the natural world—but in the past few decades , and particularly poignantly with our recent Physics Project , it’s become clear that simple programs are in general a more powerful approach.) How does all this relate to technology?

Morph with the wind: shape-changing buildings

Futurum

The cyber-physical system we are developing uses a combination of wind sensors, optimisation algorithms and artificial intelligence to search for combinations of façade positions and wind flow conditions that limit building vibration,” says Jared.

The Making of A New Kind of Science

Stephen Wolfram

My journey in science began in the early 1970s—and by the time I was 14 I’d already written three book-length “treatises” about physics (though these wouldn’t see the light of day for several more decades). But would color allow seriously better communication of information? and here with splashes : &#10005. &#10005.
