Podcasts about microsoft's ai

One of the latest patents filed by Microsoft consists of creating an AI chatbot/3D image of a person based on their social media profile, online history, and other data gathered by AI algorithms. This technology can be used with a person that is living or deceased. This is bordering on necromancy and this realm of technology is extremely evil and is something we do not want to venture in. Deuteronomy 18:9-12

It’s still early days for most in the charity sector, but the truth is artificial intelligence is now far from being just a buzzword.  Experts are saying that artificial intelligence will shape society more than any other technology in the next few decades, so why would the third sector be any exception? However, it’s not been without its bad press – with risks and concerns over data use, loss of jobs and general usability.   We’re seeing more and more charities using technology such as machine learning, chatbots and algorithmic decision making to do everything from serving information and telling stories online, to taking voice-based donations, driving innovative research and serving beneficiaries.  The possibilities are incredibly wide-ranging.   This podcast challenges the negative aspects of AI, dives into exactly what charities are missing out on and shares how other charities are using AI to change the shape of their fundraising, operations and services.

Dan and Ray talk about Artifical Intelligence for Good - things like using AI to count fish stocks in Darwin without having to risk your life from the crocs; and the use of AI to detect and prevent poaching in the national parks of southern Africa. Now AI can recognise text, speech and images better than humans, there are lots of scenarios where it can help us to achieve more.  Ray talked about Microsoft's AI for Good competition for schools, and the ideas that the teams pitched at the national finals in Sydney. More information on the finalists is here. The 2019 competition is over, but it's not too early to register for the 2020 competition here: https://aiforgood.com.au/ Slightly off topic, Dan mentions https://www.how-old.net/ which uses AI to tell you how old you look; Ray talks about apps to help detect autism Ray puts Dan on the spot about having a house full of smart speakers and how he uses them, which Dan uses as an opportunity to try and re-direct listeners' Alexa devices (warning: if you're listening to this through your Alexa, you could end up listening to Baby Shark halfway through!)

The AI for Good initiatives by Microsoft were created to foster development and support for AI solutions that seek to benefit all of mankind. The initiatives are AI for Accessibility, AI for Earth, and AI for Humanitarian Action. In today's episode of the Microsoft Today Podcast, we're going discuss all of these fantastic initiatives and how you can get involved for the great good.  AI for Accessibility Microsoft's goal for AI for Accessibility is to amplify human capability, as they believe that AI can empower people with disabilities with tools that support independence and productivity, as technology rapidly changes the way we live, learn, and work. Microsoft does through grants, investments of technology, and expertise.  AI for Accessibility Projects Soundscape - Using sound, to give sight to the blind Eye Control - Windows 10 APIs for controlling PCs via eye movements Swiftkey Symbols - Allows simplified communication for non-verbal users Immersive Reader - Reads text out loud, break it into syllables, and increase spacing between lines and letters Microsoft Translator - Empowers the deaf and or hearing impaired Helpicto - Helps autistic individuals communicate via pictograms Seeing AI - Is a talking camera app that allows the visually impaired to access the visual world   Microsoft Build: AI for Accessibility  AI for Accessibility & Grantees Zyrobotics ReadAble Storiez is a reading fluency solution based on STEM and aimed at improving early education literacy skills for young children with varying abilities Received a $25 million grant from Microsoft iTherapy is improving communication skills for people with autism, among other cognitive learning disabilities by enhancing their app, InnerVoice, with new capabilities to help people develop their language expression skills and assign meaning to dialogue via naturalized social interactions Researchers at the University of Iowa are developing an intelligent application for people who are blind or with low vision to independently walk or jog around a 400-meter track, which can determine if someone is veering from their lane, and delivers real-time feedback to help them stay on track The Frist Center for Autism and Innovation at Vanderbilt University is developing conversational tools that provide people with autism job interview training through meaningful interactions  AI for Accessibility Grants Microsoft is looking for individuals or teams who are not only passionate about making the world more inclusive, but also firmly rooted in the communities they intend to benefit Microsoft wants to invest in ideas that are developed by or with people with disabilities AI for Accessibility is a call to action for developers, NGO’s, academics, researchers, and inventors to accelerate their work for people with disabilities This is a global program, grant applications from all countries in the world are eligible For academic institutions, the grants can be distributed as unrestricted gifts to academic institutions to support a project’s objective  AI for Earth AI for Earth is a five-year, $50 million Microsoft initiative that supports, and partners with, environmental groups and researchers while also providing grants. The goal: helping to save the planet with data science. Many of the initiatives are also heavily dependent on the ever-expanding world of Windows IoT (Internet of Things). Microsoft's AI for Earth has four areas of focus: Climate - The changing climate threatens human health, infrastructure, and natural systems. AI can give people more accurate climate predictions to help reduce the potential impacts Agriculture - By 2050, farmers must produce more food, on less arable land, and with less environmental impact to feed the world’s increasing population. AI can help people monitor the health of farms in real time Biodiversity - Species are going extinct at an alarming rate. AI can help people accelerate the discovery, monitoring, and protection of biodiversity across our planet Water - In the next two decades, demand for fresh water is predicted to dramatically outpace supply. AI can help people model Earth’s water supply to help us conserve and protect fresh water  AI for Earth Projects and APIs FarmBeats - Through sensors, drones, data analytics, AI and connectivity solutions, Microsoft is enabling precision agriculture to improve yield while reducing resource consumption Land Cover Mapping - Land cover maps help us visualize everything that covers the Earth. The Microsoft AI platform and ArcGIS spatial mapping software enable precision conservation Geo AI Data Science VM - Delivers geospatial analytics capabilities that improve the gathering, managing, and analyzing of geographic data in today’s IoT-driven world Project Premonition - Robotic insect traps, paired with cloud-scale genomics and machine learning algorithms, enable biodiversity insights. It aims to detect pathogens before they cause outbreaks   Enabling precision agriculture with AI - Microsoft's FarmBeats Program In this video you hear from the following: Sean Stratman - Farmer Ranveer Chandra - Principal Research at Microsoft  AI for Humanitarian Action Was announced by Microsoft in September of 2018, where Microsoft feels that their AI can provide a major impact in four typical areas - Disaster Response - AI can help agencies improve their response when catastrophic events occur Needs of Children - Every 3 minutes a child is born with a cleft lip or palate Refugees and Displaced People - Millions of displayed refugee youth need help building job skills Human Rights - Empowering organizations to help reduce human rights abuses  While technology is important, it's what we do with it that truly matters. - Muhammad Yunus (Nobel winner for his work with Microcredit and Microfinance)   Microsoft Ignite: AI For Humanitarian Action  In this video you hear from the following: Marlene Urscheler - UN Human Rights Officer Zeid Ra'al Al Hussein - Former UN High Commissioner on Human Rights Bai Yanbing - Postdoctoral Researcher Tohoku University (Japan) Dr. Ruben Ayala - Chief Medical Officer of Operation Smile Michael Tjalve - Principal AI Architect at Microsoft  Leading by ExampleWe will support specific nonprofit and humanitarian organizations through financial grants, partnerships, and technology investments in addition to technical expertise. We will work together with organizations to create efficient solutions and help accelerate the pace of innovation.  Example of AI for Humanitarian Action Microsoft's PhotoDNA is a free tool developed by Microsoft since 2009 with Dartmouth College that is used by more than 200 organizations around the world and has assisted in the detection, disruption, and reporting of millions of child exploitation images and videos PhotoDNA is Free to use for law enforcement and tool providers, including the PhotoDNA Cloud Service powered by Microsoft Azure To date, PhotoDNA has also enabled content providers to remove millions of illegal photographs from the internet; helped convict child sexual predators; and, in some cases, helped law enforcement rescue potential victims before they were physically harmed  AI for Good Resources AI for Accessibility AI for Accessibility Grants AI for Earth AI for Earth Grants AI for Earth APIs AI for Humanitarian Action Using AI to Help Save Lives  #TemplatesForHumanity #TempaltesForHumanity is a grassroots initiative kickstarted by Keith Whatling, a Digital Inclusion Advocate and @PowerApps evangelist based in the UK. Keith was inspired after seeing the AI for Humanity video from Microsoft Ignite and spurred into action after seeing humanitarian app efforts at a recent Hack4Good event in London.   I came across Keith's #TemplatesForHumanity tweet, and noticed the great feedback, conversation and Microsoft Power Platform templates it helped ignite and thought it would be a great thing to share. Brian Dang from the PowerApps team lead by example, and quickly published the first of what I assume will be many #TemplatesForHumanity submissions to the PowerApps Community Gallery - Volunteer Pledge App.   Another #TemplateForHumanity for a Disease Monitoring App was submitted earlier today by Mariano Gomez Bent who said, "Hopefully, it can be of help to #NGOs and #NFPs helping out in emergency zones around the world." If you're interested in knowing more, you can follow the #TemplatesForHumanity tag at the PowerApps Community to keep track of future submissions.   Don't just sit there, share your #TemplatesForHumanity today!  #TemplatesForHumanity Resources Templates for Humanity by Keith Whatling #TemplatesForHumanity Twitter Search PowerApps Community Apps Gallery Support the show.

Today's episode chronicles an Artificial Intelligence gone rogue. In a mere 16 hours, Microsoft's AI chatbot went from cute and cuddly to full-blown Nazi. What the heck happened and what does it mean for the future of AI?

Kishore's back this week to talk about his London trip, and we discuss the news coming out of D23, RED's $1200 smartphone, a set visit to War for Planet of the Apes, and Microsoft's AI computer vision tool. Plus, hagfish slime in a Moment of Science, and thoughts on recent pricing announcements for VR.

Join Jordan, Matthias, Zach and our guest this week Christian futurist & author Jonathan Crabb as we walk through… Terrible Opinions Zach - Pina Colada's are terrible. Even fresh ones Jordan - I think it's fine that Hillary can't use the subway or pour a beer. She's arrived. She doesn't have to do that stuff. Good on her.  Matthias - There should be some kind of implicit or explicit protection for people who disagree with their employer's politics. Jonathan - Donald Trump will nominate his daughter for vice president Artificial Morality - 21:00 We talk about the corruption of Microsoft's AI chat bot Tay. We dive into the morality of bots and  how we can foster a sense of shame and morality into AI as they come "online" in the future. We draw some parallels between fostering morality in young humans and young AIs. The conversation veers into how we teach bots things about the value of life and how that fits into how an AI might value a human life. Convention  Politics and Colorado - 39:00 We note that Ted Cruz actually knows how to play the delegate game vs Trump who doesn't seem to know what is going on. We talk about the regions in which Cruz needs to beat Trump in order to force the contested convention. This shifts into a conversation about the four remaining serious candidates and how they fare against each other.  Predictions - 50:30 Zach - I had to wear a tuxedo and I felt like such a rich jerk, I hated it. I predict I'll never wear a tuxedo again.  Matthias - I predict Trump does worse than the "experts" predict in New York (71 delegates) and California (93 delegates) Jordan - It will be Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton in the general election
