Approximately 185,000 people have died in civilian aviation accidents since the advent of powered flight over a century ago. However, over the past five years among U.S. airlines, the risk of dying has been almost zero. In fact, you have a much better chance of winning most lotteries than you do of dying as a passenger on a U.S. air carrier.Approximately 185,000 people have died in civilian aviation accidents since the advent of powered flight over a century ago.

The European Union’s data privacy regulations have reduced artificial intelligence innovation, according to Northeastern University research. The extent of this dampening, however, depends on individual countries’ culture, the researcher says.The European Union’s data privacy regulations have reduced artificial intelligence innovation, according to Northeastern University research.

A new “blueprint” for building AI that highlights how the technology can learn from different kinds of data—beyond vision and language—to make it more deployable in the real world, has been developed by researchers at the University of Sheffield and the Alan Turing Institute.A new “blueprint” for building AI that highlights how the technology can learn from different kinds of data—beyond vision and language—to make it more deployable in the real world, has been developed by researchers at the University of Sheffield and the Alan Turing Institute.Computer Sciences[#item_full_content]

Psychologists and behavioral scientists have been trying to understand how people mentally represent, encode and process letters, words and sentences for decades. The introduction of large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, has opened new possibilities for research in this area, as these models are specifically designed to process and generate texts in different human languages.Psychologists and behavioral scientists have been trying to understand how people mentally represent, encode and process letters, words and sentences for decades.

A research team has developed a new one-shot federated learning artificial intelligence (AI) technique that enables efficient training of large-scale models without sharing personal information. This research outcome is extremely significant, as it demonstrates that privacy protection, learning efficiency, and model performance can be secured simultaneously in the field of medical image analysis.A research team has developed a new one-shot federated learning artificial intelligence (AI) technique that enables efficient training of large-scale models without sharing personal information.

As local governments adopt new technologies that automate many aspects of city services, there is an increased likelihood of tension between the ethics and expectations of citizens and the behavior of these “smart city” tools. Researchers are proposing an approach that will allow policymakers and technology developers to better align the values programmed into smart city technologies with the ethics of the people who will be interacting with them.As local governments adopt new technologies that automate many aspects of city services, there is an increased likelihood of tension between the ethics and expectations of citizens and the behavior of these “smart city” tools.
