First artificial intelligence Google Doodle features Bach BelfastTelegraph.co.uk Google has celebrated composer Johann Sebastian Bach with its first artificial intelligence-powered Doodle. https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/world-news/first-artificial-intelligence-google-doodle-features-bach-37937172.html Email Google has celebrated composer Johann Sebastian Bach with its first artificial intelligence-powered Doodle. Thursday’s animated Google Doodle shows the composer playing an organ in celebration of his March 21 1685 birthday under the old Julian calendar. It encourages users to compose their own two-measure melody. Google said the Doodle uses machine learning to “harmonise the custom melody into Bach’s signature music style”. Bach’s chorales were known for having four voices carrying their own melodic line. To develop the AI Doodle, Google teams created a machine-learning model that was trained on 306 of Bach’s chorale … [Read more...] about First artificial intelligence Google Doodle features Bach

Raw Politics in full: Facebook fallout and the EU’s artificial intelligence race
Losing patience Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow announced on Monday that he would not allow a third vote on Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal. Bercow in a statement said the government cannot "resubmit the same proposition or substantially the same proposition as that of last week which was rejected by 149 votes". In order to bring May's Brexit deal forward for a third vote, Bercow said a "demonstrable change". Yellow-vest ban French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday night banned yellow-vest protesters from certain zones in Paris. The areas included the Champs Elysees in addition to "other town centres which have been particularly hard hit by this crisis". The statement comes after violent protests broke out on Saturday that saw buildings set alight and stores looted. The Associated Press, citing Paris police, reported that 192 people were arrested while 60 others were injured in the demonstrations, including police officers and firefighters.

Artificial intelligence helps to find a potential cure for untreatable chronic pancreatitis
ARTIFICIAL intelligence has helped with a drug break-through which could lead to a cure for chronic pancreatitis. The debilitating condition eventually stops sufferers from being able to digest their food and currently cannot be treated. It is a condition which affects millions across the globe and is currently managed through pain relief methods. Tech firm Elsevier supplied an AI platform called Entellect to host a joint datathon with non-profit organisation, The Pistoia Alliance, leading to four drugs being identified as possible cures. Mission: Cure, one of the datathon participants, is considering the options raised by the collaboration and is planning to take them to clinical trials - giving hope to millions.

How we can we use artificial intelligence? Public talks to be held at Chichester university
A public seminar to discuss the future of artificial intelligence is to be held at the University of Chichester. The seminar, which will be held at the university on April 10, will explore whether artificial intelligence (AI) will be able to replicate how humans make a decision and what health care decisions we would allow AI to make for us.Titled 'Artificial intelligence, medical decision making and you' the seminar will be delivered by consultant surgeon David Beattie at the University of Chichester.David said: "Artificial intelligence has gone from what for most is an obscure and somewhat abstract concept to a phenomenon that touches most of us on a daily basis. Despite this many people remain sceptical that machine-learned decision making is reliable and socially acceptable across a myriad of applications.“My seminar aims to familiarise delegates with the concept of artificial intelligence and perhaps challenge their current perceptions – helping them to explore their … [Read more...] about How we can we use artificial intelligence?

Merck Announces Collaboration with Iktos for Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology
"This agreement is another illustration of how we aim to enrich our discovery engine with strategic technology-focused collaborations," said Belén Garijo, Member of the Executive Board and CEO Healthcare, Merck. "Artificial intelligence is emerging as a pillar in the biopharmaceutical R&D model, giving us exponential opportunity to complement our existing expertise with further speed and better precision. For patients, this could mean faster access to novel treatment options." Iktos' AI technology, which is based on deep generative models, helps bring speed and efficiency to the drug discovery process, by automatically designing virtual novel molecules that have desired activities for treating a given disease. This tackles one of the key challenges in drug design: rapid identification of molecules which simultaneously satisfy multiple drug-like criteria for clinical testing. The technology is already successfully established in other fields, such as image processing and … [Read more...] about Merck Announces Collaboration with Iktos for Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology
