Via Kurzweil : "Watching images people are seeing, decoded from their fMRI brain scans

Kurzweil 28/10/17 : "Purdue Engineering researchers have developed a system that can show what people are seeing in real-world videos, decoded from their fMRI brain scans — an advanced new form of  “mind-reading” technology that could lead to new insights in brain function and to advanced AI systems…

Kurzweil 20/09/17 : "University of Washington (UW) researchers have developed a low-cost, long-range data-communication system that could make it possible for medical sensors or billions of low-cost “internet of things” objects to connect via radio signals at long distances (up to 2.8 kilometers) and with 1000 times lower required power (9.25 microwatts in an experiment) compared to existing technologies...

TEDxZurich | Patrick Künzler : "Brain & body-intelligence, flying through (virtual) reality

TED : "Traditionally, the design of objects and virtual interfaces is based on functional and aesthetic requirements. However, with a better understanding of how the human brain and body function, and how they work together, we now ask ourselves – can we take a new approach to design by optimizing the use of brain- and body-intelligence to create emotions and to make objects in our daily lives better and more efficient ?..

Big Think : "It's very hard to fix a vacuum cleaner if you don't understand its method of operation, says Ray Kurzweil. Kurzweil, of course, is not a vacuum repair man but a futurist visionary who is leading efforts to understand the complex nature of the human neocortex so that we might be able to reverse-engineer the brain…

Speaking at the D11 Conference in California […] in the opening tête-à-tête, Apple CEO Tim Cook offered muted praise for Google Glass but dismissed its mainstream appeal while calling wearable computing on your wrist "interesting" and "natural" Jason Hiner writes on ZDNet.

 

Apple CEO Tim Cook also predicted that the next generation of wearable computing will do more than just one thing such as activity tracking. That kind of talk will naturally fire up the rumor mill about an impending Apple product, especially an iWatch…

Kurzweil : "AlphaGo Zero trains itself to be most powerful Go player in the world

Kurzweil 25/10/17 : "Kurzweil Deep Mind has just announced AlphaGo Zero, an evolution of AlphaGo, the first computer program to defeat a world champion at the ancient Chinese game of Go. Zero is even more powerful and is now arguably the strongest Go player in history, according to the company. While previous versions of AlphaGo initially trained on thousands of human amateur and professional games to learn how to play Go, AlphaGo Zero skips this step. It learns to play from scratch, simply by playing games against itself, starting from completely random play…

Via Big Think : "Artificial intelligence assistant | Ray Kurzweil, Watson search engines

IBM's Watson can read all of the medical literature -every medical journal article, every medical book, major medical blogs- and will be an expert diagnostician and medical consultant that has read everything, Kurzweil says, No human can do that. This doesn't necessarily mean that a computer will become a great doctor. What it does mean is that a computer can serve as an excellent medical assistant…
