Science: Europe to Devote €1.5 Billion to Artificial Intelligence Research


To distinguish their research efforts, European AI research will be guided by a focus on ethics in contrast to the "permissionless innovation" approach taken by the U.S. and China.

Surveyed Truckers Skeptical Self-Driving Trucks Will Happen Soon.

From Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook, during a visit to Iowa 80, The World's Largest Truck Stop: "I asked a number of truckers what they think about self-driving cars and trucks and what they think about the future. Everyone I met was skeptical self-driving trucks would replace jobs for different reasons. Some thought it would be impossible to pack all the sensors you need to deal with things like weather into trucks. Others thought computers could handle the interstate but not the last mile to the store. And some truckers think we'll end up with something like autopilot on planes -- with trucks driving themselves with people in the cab. From all the research I've seen, I'm confident we'll solve these problems. But it's interesting that people in the industry don't believe this will happen soon."

EVENT: Design Automation Meets Artificial Intelligence

Who:  Dr. Michael Hsio, Professor, IEEE Fellow, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Virginia Tech What:  Presentation - Design Automation Meets Artificial Intelligence Where: Room 246 Nichols Hall, KU West Campus When: 2:00 p.m. Monday, May 1 Why:  Refreshments will be served Abstract: Electronic Design Automation (EDA) has been around for more than half a century. They have brought us tools that range from analyzing circuits to performing circuit optimization, verification and synthesis.  In all the EDA tasks, formal methods have played a major role in realizing the automation goals. Artificial intelligence (AI), on the other hand, have played limited roles. With the recent advances in AI, the potential of EDA can be seen in a new light. Not only can it realize what humans can do, it can probably and most likely also accomplish what humans cannot, such as automatically designing bug-free, functionally correct hardware and software from a...
