As artificial intelligence(AI) systems become more advanced, we can expect them to be used more often in the world of human medicine and health care.
The Georgia Medical Union gives money to the AI project as a part of its Future Health 2025 program, the aim of which is to get great ideas from the lab to the market and support world healthcare and the aging problem.
Georgia Institute of Technology built an experimental robot called PR2 that is capable of abstracting knowledge and developing their own experience to share with other AIs. PR2 can gather information about patient's information in a big room in hospital.
PR3 is the second robot model that can collect data. PR3 is trained on large data sets gathered from real-life cases. People are sharing more and more of their health data through apps on mobile and wearable devices. PR3 will gather and share all the data with the experimental robot.
Moving around between the PR2 and the PR3, PR4 is an AI Robot which can also be put to work in hospitals to help doctors and nurses spend more time with their patients. Moxi is a robot assistant that helps staff by completing general tasks such as delivering lab samples, collecting laundry or gathering medical supplies.
Together, the robots can make a working group, like a group of bees going about their jobs, or birds moving together as one in the sky. As they work together, they appear to be learning themselves in the same way living things do.
One problem the researchers had in the beginning was how the robots would communicate with each other. The robot cannot exchange information without WI-FI and GPS equipment does not work with different floors. These robots can work in short distance well. The electric field the robots send out lets them sense what is near them and react to it.
The acceptance of AI in medicine will continue to gather pace in the future as it becomes more widespread.
Every time we get behind the wheel of a car, we put our lives and the lives of others at risk. Self-driving cars are designed to reduce those risks by letting technology control our vehicles.
Accident rates for self-driving cars have been much lower than the rate, for human-driven cars. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
As humans, we can make moral choices in avoiding accidents. To avoid hitting a child, for example, human drivers might sharply turn a car away from the child even if others may be injured. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Researchers studied this issue. They have developed the Moral Machine website to help explore the choices self-driving cars should make.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} You are shown two possible traffic situations and you choose between them. An accident will take place. You choose how many living beings would be hurt or killed.
In one situation there may be a female doctor, a child, two dogs and a homeless person who would be killed. In the other situation, you might have two babies and a cat who would be killed. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
The Moral Machine website has many situations and many possible outcomes. When you click on the situation of your choice, it will be highlighted. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} At the end of the situation, you are shown the results, based on the choices you made. The results show which character you were most likely to save and which character you were most likely to have die.
A. Who should those victims be? B. Then the next situation appears. C. You choose who lives and who dies. D. You can use the Moral Machine to be the judge. E. But what moral choices can self-driving cars make? F. The Moral Machine website lets you choose how you would react in a collision. G. Google's self-driving car has had only 13 collisions after traveling 1.8 million miles. |
Pretty much anyone can book a trip, but not everyone can plan an ultimate adventure that's affordable, accommodating, and fun for everyone in your group. At Tripslnsider.com, we aim to provide you with the best insider secrets in the travel business and a state-of-the-art travel comparison tool to make planning easier than ever.
Here are some insider tips that we'd like to share with you.
Join an Airline Loyalty Program Even if you don't think you travel often enough to make an airline loyalty program worth it, join one. This is your best chance of getting a flight upgrade (升级), even if you stay at a low point level. | Get the Weekly Car Rental Rate It's a bit puzzling that car rental companies charge more for driving less, but the weekly rate is often cheaper than driving just four days. You may be able to get the weekly rate for just five days, so keep the car a bit longer if you can. |
Ask the Crew about Free Souvenirs (纪念品) Lots of free stuff is lying around cruise ships, such as T-shirts, crossword puzzles, and postcards. Make friends with the crew members and nicely ask what kind of freebies may be available for souvenirs. Just don't forget to tip! | Ask for a Corner Room When you check in at a hotel, ask if there's a comer room available. These are usually larger and quieter for the same price as ones in the middle of the hall. Upgrades are most often offered at the end of the day when hotels have a better sense of their occupancy. |
We hope that you found the tips on this page helpful and can put them to use on your next vacation. Whether you plan to fly, drive, or cruise, become an expert trip planner by using our travel comparison tool for all your transportation and hotel needs.
