5 things about AI you may have missed today: Google launches Gemini AI model, Nvidia CEO on AI safety, more

[ad_1] Today, December 6, was a very important day for the artificial intelligence space. Google has introduced its most advanced artificial intelligence model, a technology capable of crunching different forms of information such as video, audio, and text, called Gemini AI. The company claims that the multimodal AI model is its largest one yet. In other news, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in an interview that he feels achieving AI safety is a reachable goal. This and more in today's AI roundup. Let us take a closer look.Google launches Gemini AIGoogle has launched its largest multimodal AI model, Gemini, with three categories — Gemini Ultra, the largest and most capable; Gemini Pro, versatile across various tasks; and Gemini Nano, designed for specific tasks and mobile devices, as per a...

Inspired by online dating, AI tool for adoption matchmaking falls short for vulnerable foster kids

[ad_1] Some are orphans, others seized from their parents. Many are older and have overwhelming needs or disabilities. Most bear the scars of trauma from being hauled between foster homes, torn from siblings or sexually and physically abused.Child protective services agencies have wrestled for decades with how to find lasting homes for such vulnerable children and teens –- a challenge so enormous that social workers can never guarantee a perfect fit. Into this morass stepped Thea Ramirez with what she touted as a technological solution – an artificial intelligence-powered tool that ultimately can predict which adoptive families will stay together. Ramirez claimed this algorithm, designed by former researchers at an online dating service, could boost successful adoptions across the U.S. ...

AI excitement turns to pain for Big Tech as profits hard to come by; check out the numbers

[ad_1] Ever since the advent of generative artificial intelligence (AI), many experts have highlighted the potential problems with this technology, ranging from misinformation to the destruction of humans through superintelligence AI. However, many failed to see the most critical problem with AI, one that is proving to be destructive to its own growth – the economics of scale. As per reports, major tech firms are struggling to turn their AI businesses into profit despite the massive excitement from consumers as it is very costly to keep AI products operational.According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, AI tools which are unproven in terms of market durability, can be quite expensive to run as they require robust servers with expensive chips that consume lots of power. In particul...

AI could halve time reading breast cancer scans, study suggests

[ad_1] Artificial intelligence could help almost halve the workload of radiologists when it comes to searching routine scans for signs of breast cancer, a large Swedish study suggested on Wednesday.The interim results of the trial were hailed as promising, but the authors cautioned that more research was needed before AI can be used to screen for breast cancer on a wider scale. While increasingly convincing chatbots such as ChatGPT have driven speculation about the future potential applications of AI, one area in which the technology has already shown proficiency is in reading medical scans. With many countries suffering from a shortage of radiologists, there are hopes that AI could make the time-consuming job of analysing routine scans quicker and more accurate.This could have a partic...

AI Algorithm Raises Heart Attack Diagnosis Accuracy in UK Study

[ad_1] A computer algorithm developed using artificial intelligence accurately distinguished real heart attacks from false alarms, according to an emergency room study that offers a way for overburdened doctors to focus on the sickest patients.The algorithm was able to accurately rule out a heart attack in nearly all patients, according to the study published Thursday in Nature Medicine. The tool, tested in more than 10000 patients in six countries, was 99.6% accurate in ruling out patients who weren't suffering from heart attacks, performed well across different ages and genders. Rapidly developing AI technologies are gaining traction in health care, aiming to streamline processes from drug development to direct patient care. Pharmaceutical companies are investing heavily in such tools...
