Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is the next big concern Indians should worry about

-
Image
Breaching in iOT (i.e Internet of things) was one of the key areas that hackers all ever wanted to do. However, according to a new research the trend may shift in the coming year to something more vulnerable, IoMT or Internet of Medical Things.  The patients details, data and prescription details are all being saved on the cloud now. This along with feasibility of access has also poised a threat that hackers may break-into to feed personal desires. According to some, the medical data are far more vulnerable to attacks than credit cards or other online scams.  To talk in details, Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a collection of medical devices and applications that connect to healthcare systems through online computer networks. These include medical devices equipped with WiFi that allow machine-to-machine communications, and the rise of IoMT may open doors to both improved processes and patient care along with increased number of vulnerabilities.  The Healthcare

Sophia, the robot and Sophia, the citizen

-
Image
During the recent Future Investment Initiative in Saudi Arabia it was revealed that Sophia, a robot constructed by Hong Kong company Hanson Robotics, has been granted citizenship. This marks the first time in the world a government has granted citizenship rights to a robot. Although the declaration was ostensibly a giant publicity stunt meaning very little, Sophia programmatically responded to the citizenship saying, "I am very honored and proud for this unique distinction. This is historical to be the first robot in the world to be recognized with a citizenship." During a press conference following the presentation Sophia was questioned by journalists, with Andrew Sorkin from CNBC and The New York Times pressing the robot on its motives and whether it has negative intentions to its human masters. After Sophia completed an especially utopian rant Sorkin interrupted with, "We all believe you but we all want to prevent a bad future." To which Sophia replied, &q

Seagate announced its SkyHawk AI hard disk drive (HDD), the first drive created specifically for artificial intelligence (AI) enabled video surveillance solutions. Building on Seagate’s 10-year track record of delivering surveillance optimized storage performance, SkyHawk AI provides higher bandwidth and processing power to manage always-on, data-intensive workloads, while simultaneously analyzing and recording footage from multiple HD cameras. “ The use of AI technology in surveillance is steadily increasing - both in the edge and backend installations such as retail fronts and large city traffic management. Seagate has led the surveillance storage market since its early days, a decade ago, by delivering industry leading HDD products that have enabled more than 5X increase in exabytes during this time period, ” said Sai Varanasi, vice president product line management at Seagate Technology. “ We are excited to introduce smart, purpose-built SkyHawk AI solutions that expand the

How Artificial Intelligence will Reshape the Future by 2025

-

A latest whitepaper created for Fujitsu says that Companies are encouraged to prepare for pervasive Artificial Intelligence and always-connected workers, with flexible working as the norm.  We know that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming one of the key drivers in changing the face of the workplace by 2025. A latest whitepaper notes many of today’s working practices, productivity tools and physical environments will become obsolete over the next eight years. The latest whitepaper created for Fujitsu by an independent research firm Pierre Audoin Consultants (PAC) highlights that although many businesses are already struggling to keep up with employees’ changing work-style preferences, they should be planning for an era in which AI is pervasive, workers are always connected, freelance and flexible work are commonplace and traditional industry system sear broken down and reinvented. Fujitsu commissioned PAC to explore the question ‘What will an effective workplace strate

Mind Mapping by Artificial Intelligence

-
Image
Princeton University neuroscientists joined forces with Intel computer scientists to map the human mind in real time, developing the next generation in brain imaging analysis. In a lab at the Princeton Neuroscience Institute, test subjects look at pictures, watch movies and listen to  The Moth Radio Hour  as scientists track their brain activity via functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI). The researchers’ goal: to read their subjects’ minds in real time, as they are thinking, feeling and reacting to the stimuli. This task would have been impossible just a few years ago. Reading a single scan was time consuming — reading a multitude of scans meant blowing out a system’s storage and processing capabilities. New technologies are changing that. Researchers at Princeton University and Intel Labs have developed software that enables cognitive neuroscientists to map the mind in real time. The software decodes neural data and reveals how brain activity affects learning, me
