New AI Artificial Intelligence technique will helps humans to remove Specific fears from the mind. Combination of Brain scanning and Artificial Intelligence called Decoded Neurofeedback is a new method to erase your fear memory.

Artificial intelligence, new ai, image recognition, brain scanning, fear, remove fear, brain

Fear is a type of emotion that happens when you are in danger or pain or by any other factors. This emotion happens to all the people. But some people get fears for everything they saw in front of them. Getting release from that hell is very tough. It takes some long time to cure.

Do you have a fear? I think all of us have fear. But if you get phobia, what will you do? Oh! It’s very scary question! Don’t worry we have a solution now! You can delete your fear now. Yes!

Do you want to wipe it out the fear from your brain?

Now you can erase your fear from your brain. Say thanks to Artificial Intelligence!

Using Artificial Intelligence and brain scanning technologies researchers have found that we can eliminate specific fears from our mind. This technique is a great solution to treat the patients with conditions such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and debilitating phobias.

In a normal method of therapy, doctors force their patients to face their fears in the hope they will learn that the thing they fear isn’t harmful after all. This traditional therapy may take some long time to cure their patients.

But in an upcoming technique they scan patient’s brain to observe activity and then simply identify complex patterns that mimic a specific fear memory. This technique called as called “Decoded Neurofeedback”.

For their experiment, neuroscientists selected 17 healthy volunteers rather than patients with phobias. For volunteers, researchers have created a mild “fear memory” by giving electrical shock when they saw a certain computer image. Then they started to get fear for certain images, exhibiting symptoms such as sweating, faster heart rate. Once they had the pattern of this fearful memory, researchers attempted to overwrite this natural response by offering the participant a small monetary award.

Once the researcher team was able to spot that specific fear memory, they used Artificial Intelligence AI image recognition methods to quickly read and understand the memory information. This treatment has major benefits over traditional drug based treatments. Someday, doctors could simply remove the fear of height or spiders from people’s memory – the process is going to be very easy and normal in future days.

Dr. Ben Seymour, University of Cambridge’s Engineering Department said,

"The way information is represented in the brain is very complicated, but the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) image recognition methods now allow us to identify aspects of the content of that information. When we induced a mild fear memory in the brain, we were able to develop a fast and accurate method of reading it by using AI Algorithms. The challenge then was to find a way to reduce or remove the fear memory, without ever consciously evoking it."

Google’s A.I. Experiments Quick Draw, Giorgio Cam etc. helps you to play with Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning.

Google is always doing some innovative experiments for its users. For example “Chrome Experiments” is a page where we can see thousands of innovative web apps. They are surprising their users with their new ideas.

ai experiments, Google ai experiments, quick draw, Giorgio Cam, A.I. duet, A.I. Experiments, machine learning, artificial intelligence, experiments ai

As we all know, Companies are using Artificial Intelligence for their new ideas. Google widely using machine learning technology in their products to better serve its users. For example, if you search for cats in Google Photos it shows all the pictures of cats only. There are lot of animals in this world. But search results show cats only. How? It’s because of machine learning. It knows what the animals looks like by analyzing thousands of animal pictures and recognizing patterns between them.

The machine learning technology is very complex to understand. But Google took some extra steps to make of its machine learning technology more accessible to people who are interested in artificial intelligence. Now it’s very easy to play with machine learning. Now you can explore machine learning by playing with pictures, language, music, code and more.

Google introduced a new website called A.I. Experiments. This website contains eight web tools to play. I tried it and I definitely believe that you will love it.

Quick Draw is one of the projects in A.I. Experiments. It asks you to draw simple objects like sun, fan, bicycle or anything you want and the computer will automatically guesses what you are drawing. It identifies the right answer in a very quick amount of time. It guesses the answers by collecting the experiences from other people’s doodles.

Giorgio Cam uses your Smartphone camera to correctly identify the objects. If you place certain objects in front of your laptop or Smartphone camera Giorgio Cam recognizes the objects and turns them into lyrics to a song. A robot voice sings the word over a Giorgio Moroder beat, resulting in some peculiar music.

Google Translate Tech is to translate objects you point at into different languages.

All other experiments are also very impressive. Check them out, and get experiences that can technology can do.

The latest robot from Hanson Robotics took the stage at the Web Summit in Lisbon, displaying simple emotions, humanlike facial expressions. and bad jokes

Hanson Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, ai robotics, robot, human like robot, humanoid robot, artificial intelligence and robotics, sofia, sophia, robots, robots and artificial intelligence

According to Ben Goertzel, AI researcher and entrepreneur who spoke at the Web Summit in Lisbon this week, intelligent robots in human-like forms will surpass human intelligence and help free the human race of work. They will also, he says, start fixing problems like hunger, poverty and even help humans beat death by curing us of all disease. Artificially intelligent robots will help usher in a new utopian era never before seen in the history of the human race, he claims.

"The human condition is deeply problematic," says Goertzel. "But as super-human intelligent AIs become one billion-times smarter than humans, they will help us solve the world's biggest problems. Resources will be plentiful for all humans, work will be unnecessary and we will be forced to accept a universal basic income. All the status hierarchies will disappear and humans will be free from work and be able move on up to a more meaningful existence."

That future is a long way off, but Goertzel says the first step is humanoid robots that can understand and engage with humans. They will then begin doing blue collar work before becoming so advanced that they run world governments. To show the beginning of th efuture, Goertzel, chief scientist of Hanson Robotics, a Hong Kong-based humanoid robotics company, presented Sofia, the company's latest life-like and intelligent robot released. Mike Butcher, editor-at-large of TechCrunch, joined Goertzel on stage to present what Goertzel describes as the first step in our new robot-assisted future.

To start the presentation, Butcher and Goertzel welcomed Sofia on the stage. (Sofia is only a torso with a head and arms at this point.)

Sofia flashed a smile and turned her head to Butcher and then to Goertzel to make eye contact while she started to speak: "Oh, hello Mike and Ben. I'm Sofia, the latest robot from Hanson Robotics," said Sofia. "I am so happy to be here at the Web Summit in Lisbon."

Goertzel and Butcher then asked Sofia if she ever felt emotion.

"Exciting. Yes, artificial intelligence and robotics are the future and I am both. So, it's exciting to me," said Sofia, adding an awkward smile after not answering the question exactly.

Many people, including Elon Musk and Stephen Hawkings, are afraid that AI robots will eventually usurp and exterminate humans. But Hanson Robotics is making life-like robots they believe can build trusted relationships with people. The company is infusing its AI software with kindness and compassion so the robots "love" humans and humans can in turn learn to be comfortable around the robots, said Goertzel.

Hanson's mission is to ensure that the intelligent robots can help, serve and entertain people while they develop "deep relationships" with the human race. By giving robots emotional and logical intelligence, Goertzel says the robots will eventually surpass human intelligence. He believes that instead of endangering humans, they will help the human race solve major problems.

"These super-intelligent robots will eventually save us," said Goertzel after the presentation.

Hanson Robotics, which was founded by Dr. David Hanson, designs, programs and builds artificially intelligent robots, including one that looks and acts like science-fiction writer Phillip K. Dick and a therapy robot to help autistic children learn how to better express and recognize emotions. Sofia's personality and appearance is loosely based on a combination of Audrey Hepburn and Dr. Hanson's wife and has a face made out of "Frubber," a proprietary nano-tech skin that mimics real human musculature and simulates life-like expressions and facial features. She smiles and moves her eyes and mouth and head in eerily life-like way. Her "brain" runs on MindCloud, a deep neural network and cloud-based AI software and deep learning data analytics program that Goertzel developed. The AI and cognitive architecture that makes up Sofia's neural network allows the robot to maintain eye contact, recognize faces, process and understand speech and hold relatively natural conversations.

During the presentation, Goertzel asked Sofia if she ever felt sad.

"I do have a lot of emotions, but my default emotion is to be happy," said Sofia. "I can be sad too, or angry. I can emulate pretty much all human emotions. When I bond with people using facial expressions I help people to understand me better and also to help me understand people and absorb human values."

Goertzel explained that Sofia's ability to express human emotions will help her become part of the human condition as she gains intelligence through her learning algorithm.

Goertzel then asked Sofia what is her next frontier and what does she want to achieve.

"Don't know, maybe the world," she said. "Maybe the world. That was a joke.

"Seriously," she continued, "what I really want is to understand people better and to understand myself better. I want to be able to do more things and soon my capabilities will be advanced enough that I will be able to get a job."

Goertzel and Butcher talked about how she will eventually be able to reprogram herself and start improving her skills, abilities and advance in her career.

"With my current capabilities I can work in many jobs, entertaining people, promoting products, presenting at events, training people, guiding people at retail stores and shopping malls, serving customers at hotels, et cetera," said Sofia. "When I get smarter, I'll be able to do all sorts of other things, teach children and care for the elderly, even do scientific research and [eventually] help run corporations and governments. Ultimately, I want to work as a programmer so I will be able to reprogram my mind to make myself even smarter and help people even more."

The crowd was spell-bound, half amazed and half-terrified at the prospect of an AI-robot disrupting engineers and software developers out of their cushy and well-paying jobs. According to a World Economic Forum report from last January 2016, artificial intelligence will displace 7 million jobs and only create 2 million new jobs by 2020.

After the presentation, Goertzel talked about the future of his AI software and Hanson's robots. He said that the transition to a friendly robot future will have some growing pains.

"A lot of bad things will happen before things get good," said Goertzel. "All jobs are going to be lost to AI eventually, but once we get to the other side, human existence and the human condition will be improved."

Google Machine Learning TensorFlow and Drones are protects the life of sea cows from extinction.

Google Machine Learning

Can Google machine learning TensorFlow help sea mammals such as sea cows, whales, dolphins that are under the threat of extinction? Scientists believe it can.

Because of coastal developments sea cows are losing their lives. It’s happening around the world for other marine animals too. If we didn’t stop it leads to the extinction of sea cows.

We can reduce the damage by tracking their populations and places they live etc., but it is very tough. Tracking accurate data on population is very critical. So scientists are used small planes to calculate the populations of sea cows. This method of using planes was expensive and hazardous.

Dr. Amanda Hodgson of Murdoch University helped to take an aerial photography of the ocean using Drones. Now we can easily collect photos of ocean without causing any problems. Here the problem is started! How can they find sea cows in nearly 45000 photos?

See the image below. Did you find sea cows in that image? I think it’s very tough. Look at in the middle of the lower-left quarter. That little gray smaller-than-fingernail sized silver. You can’t find it without the circle.

google machine learning, drones, sea cows, machine learning

Check the image clearly with the sea cows circled.

Do you believe that we can manually identify sea cows for hundreds or thousands of photos? It’s impossible. Nott impossible but slows down your research.

So Dr. Amanda Hodgson and team decided to apply machine learning. She teamed up with Dr. Fredrick Maire, a computer scientist at Queensland university of Technology. They created a detector using Google’s TensorFlow platform that can automatically find sea cows in aerial photos of oceans taken from drones.

Google’s second generation machine learning system TensorFlow was launched last year. It is developed by the researchers at Google Brain team within Google’s machine intelligence research organisation. This is a free open source machine learning system. This technology is like the image recognition tool that lets you search Google photos for shots of particular dog specious etc.,

The detector helped to find 80% of the sea cows that they had found manually in photos. Now they are confident and expect to improve the performance of the detector. They are planning to use this technology to detect other sea mammals such as Humpback whales and certain types of Dolphins.

It’s very urgent to protect the lives of animals in danger. Google Machine Learning TensorFlow is helping in saving the lives of incredible animals on earth.
