Can artificial intelligence beat musicians at their craft?

Should musicians, whose job relies on the unpredictable and mysterious workings of human imagination, heed the warnings about artificial intelligence driving humans into unemployment? Apparently, the answer to that question is bit complicated. Artificial intelligence is gradually transforming into a general-purpose technology that permeates virtually every aspect of human life and society.

Data science: Feeding the all-seeing beast

Data science: Feeding the all-seeing beast | ZDNet

Pervasive data science is becoming a core enabler of business innovation and competition. Given this importance, it's worth examining the context of data science to consider its trajectory and future value. In my view, primary challenges around data science for business leaders comes from three sources: Business people do not always understand the power and implications of what's possible with data science and machine learning.

AI-Assisted Detection Identifies Colon Cancer Automatically and in Real-Time

AI-assisted detection identifies colon cancer automatically and in real-time

A new computer-aided endoscopic system that probes for signs of tumor or cancer growth in the colon may very well be the future of cancer detection. Assisted by artificial intelligence (AI), the new diagnostic system is able to tell if clumps of cells, called colorectal polyps, that grow along the walls of the colon are benign tumors known as colorectal adenoma.
