AI breakthrough rapidly determines if an antidepressant will work
Months of trial and error, as well as adverse side effects, in an effort to find the right antidepressant may soon be a thing of the past for those with major depressive disorder, with a novel artificial intelligence model able to determine a drug’s ef… Continue reading AI breakthrough rapidly determines if an antidepressant will work
Digital algorithm shown to significantly reduce antibiotic prescription
A new study has found that using a digital support algorithm to guide diagnosis and treatment by healthcare providers significantly reduced the number of antibiotic prescriptions given to acutely sick children, without affecting treatment success or ca… Continue reading Digital algorithm shown to significantly reduce antibiotic prescription
Ireland wants input on disabling video-sharing platform algorithms
Coimisiún na Meán, Ireland’s new commission for media regulation, has invited public feedback on the country’s first Online Safety Code for video-sharing platform services. The draft Code includes a recommendation, amongst many others, that platforms c… Continue reading Ireland wants input on disabling video-sharing platform algorithms
Algorithm identifies 188 new CRISPR gene-editing systems
CRISPR systems are powerful tools for genetic engineering, but they have their limitations. Now, scientists have discovered almost 200 new CRISPR systems in their native habitat of bacteria, and found that some can edit human cells even more precisely … Continue reading Algorithm identifies 188 new CRISPR gene-editing systems
AI predicts when and where “monster” rogue waves will swell up
Gigantic waves can seemingly come out of nowhere, threatening ships and oil rigs. Now, an AI system trained on centuries of data has been able to predict when these rogue waves will occur, revealing new insights into how they form.Continue ReadingCateg… Continue reading AI predicts when and where “monster” rogue waves will swell up

AI may help severely infertile men become fathers
Australian researchers have developed an AI algorithm called SpermSearch that can accurately identify sperm in severely infertile men in a fraction of the time it takes scientists, providing hope to men who want to father biological children.Continue R… Continue reading AI may help severely infertile men become fathers
AI hit prediction could have a huge impact on music industry, artists
It’s safe to say that even with convincing deep fakes causing record-label panic and a flurry of new AI tech garnering plenty of interest, we’re still at the very beginning of learning how the age of modern machine learning will impact art and pop cult… Continue reading AI hit prediction could have a huge impact on music industry, artists
Algorithm uses genetic markers to predict diabetic kidney disease
Kidney disease is a common, irreversible complication of diabetes. Researchers have developed an algorithm that uses genetic markers to predict whether a type 2 diabetic will develop kidney disease years in advance, which may provide a way of diagnosin… Continue reading Algorithm uses genetic markers to predict diabetic kidney disease
