Data Scientists aren’t born — they’re made. IT pros from all backgrounds are working to gain the types of all skills companies need as the demand for data scientists outspaces the supply of qualified candidates. These are some common personality traits and skills of a data scientist. Read More
A new study has warned that it will become impossible to predict the actions of superintelligent artificial intelligence (AI), raising questions over whether humans may eventually lose control.
Research conducted by the Max-Planck Institute for Humans and Machines and published in the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research has found that in order to accurately predict what an individual AI is going do, scientists would have to run an exact simulation of the system – a feat that will grow more difficult as AI systems become more and more advanced.

Quantum computers, according to experts, will one day be capable of performing incredible calculations and nearly unfathomable feats of logic. In the near future, we know they’ll help us discover new drugs to fight disease and new materials to build with. But the far future potential for these enigmatic machines is as vast as the universe itself.
…. Reality, one way or another, boils down to whatever our brains believe it is. And this makes the idea of altering our memories, and thus our realities, all the more appealing – or terrifying, depending on how you look at it. Read More
Columbia University AI researchers enable machines to be more human-like.
Artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning is fueling the current commercial boom in automation, and robots are becoming increasingly more sophisticated. In a step forward in endowing robots with human-like behavior, researchers at Columbia University showed how AI machine learning can predict a robot’s future actions by observation and published their results earlier this month in Nature Scientific Reports.
