What a year, ey?
At the start of 2023, people were struggling to keep up with the tech world. One day this was getting released, the next day a competitor came out with something else, and then you heard about something new. It was a lot.
But the momentum continued…
In virtual reality and 3D modeling, constructing dynamic, high-fidelity digital human representations from limited data sources, such as single-view videos, presents a significant challenge. This task demands an intricate balance between achieving detailed and accurate digital representations and the computational efficiency required for real-time applications. Traditional methods often grapple with rendering speeds and model fidelity…
How to ensure we benefit society with the most impactful technology being developed today As chief operating officer of one of the world’s leading artificial intelligence labs, I spend a lot of time thinking about how our technologies impact people’s lives – and how we can ensure that our efforts have a positive outcome. This…
Everyone’s job requires certain goods or services to be successful. Teachers need school supplies, mechanics need car parts, and restaurant managers need to get proper uniforms for their teams. Securing these items happens on a regular basis as part of the procurement process, but to ensure a paper trail exists from start to finish, the…
Remember the time when a single misplaced receipt could derail the entire expense reporting process in a company? Well, those days are long gone. In today's lightning-fast business world, the efficiency of expense management isn't just a nice-to-have, it's a must-have for a thriving company. Streamlined expense approvals are not just about speed; they're about…
Many industries are excited to apply artificial intelligence (AI) to an increasingly broad assortment of use cases. One emerging possibility involves using such technology to analyze colors.
Keeping the Roads Safer
“AI already powers many features on today’s modern automobiles. Researchers have developed algorithms that can detect tired or angry drivers.”
The associated…
The online shopping experience has been revolutionized by Virtual Try-On (VTON) technology, offering a glimpse into the future of e-commerce. This technology, pivotal in bridging the gap between virtual and physical shopping experiences, allows customers to picture how clothes will look on them without needing a physical try-on. It is an invaluable tool in an…
How often do machine learning projects reach successful deployment? Not often enough. There's plenty of industry research showing that ML projects commonly fail to deliver returns, but precious few have gauged the ratio of failure to success from the perspective of data scientists – the folks who develop the very models these projects are meant…
Now that the novelty of artificial intelligence has worn off, people are focusing on its responsible use. Ethical algorithms have become a chief concern for many businesses and regulatory agencies. However, you may be unaware of its influence because it’s largely unexplored.
“Across all industries, ethical AI has quickly become the focus of attention.” …
Today’s post is all about Akhil Raju, a software engineer on the robotics team. We originally met Akhil in season two of DeepMind: The Podcast, but we wanted to get to know him better and hear more about his path to DeepMind. What sparked your curiosity in artificial intelligence (AI)? When I was young, I…
