Written by Posted on Less than 0 min read

What is the difference between general AI and narrow AI?

Different types of narrow AI technologiesThe narrow AI techniques we have today basically fall into two categories: symbolic AI and machine learning.
There are already some working examples that show neuro-symbolic AI systems can overcome the data constraints of narrow AI.

Daily Distraction: Make people bop to your tunes with these music-making tools

When I was in school, I discovered a software named Virtual DJ. It was a Windows app that allowed me to queue up songs and even provided some automated effects and tools to act cool in front of my friends. My love for the Virtual DJ carried over to college, and I used to be the resident DJ for all parties in my hostel. I knew jack shit about actual DJing back then, but the app allowed me to earn some street cred. I’ve always been fascinated by apps that let fools like me play around with tabs and still… This story continues at The Next Web

A comprehensive guide to JavaScript design patterns

As a good JavaScript developer, you strive to write clean, healthy, and maintainable code. You solve interesting challenges that, while unique, don’t necessarily require unique solutions. You’ve likely found yourself writing code that looks similar to the solution of an entirely different problem you’ve handled before. You may not know it, but you’ve used a JavaScript design pattern. Design patterns are reusable solutions to commonly occurring problems in software design. During any language’s lifespan, many such reusable solutions are made and tested by a large number of developers from that language’s community. It is because of this combined experience of many… This story continues at The Next Web

Scaling API-driven development can be difficult — here’s how to nail it

Developers today think in Application Programming Interfaces, or APIs. Looking at APIs first helps you concentrate on the problem that you are looking to solve in an application, or as part of a wider service. With communication between components in an application all taking place via APIs, this approach makes it easier to adopt microservices designs and make use of multi-cloud. However, API-driven development (ADD) is not as easy as it sounds over time. Concentrating on APIs first can make it easier to build and maintain an application, but it’s not possible to ignore the infrastructure side completely. If you… This story continues at The Next Web

MIT scientists can ‘hack’ your dreams with sounds and smells

The thought of someone controlling our dreams may sound like a nightmare, but it’s already a reality. Yesterday, OneZero’s Tessa Love pulled back the curtain on a mysterious laboratory using wearable devices to influence our sleeping minds. The team at MIT’s Dream Lab believes that inserting sounds and scents into our dreams can make our waking lives better. Their research focuses on hypnagogia, the dream-like state between our conscious and subconscious minds, which we enter as we progress from being awake to asleep. “People don’t know that a third of their life is a third where they could change or structure… This story continues at The Next Web

Comparing Huawei’s FreeBuds 3i to AirPods is fair, but misguided

These days if you release a phone, you damn well best release a pair of true wireless earbuds too. And Huawei‘s no different. So, say hello to the FreeBuds 3i!

As the world’s workforce continues to move online — working from home during the coronavirus pandemic — employees are finding creative ways to appear more online than they really are. Take Zoom. According to its website, there’s a feature that, when turned on, can tell hosts if chat participants have navigated away from the active Zoom window for more than 30 seconds.

IBM’s new open-source tool helps developers make their apps more accessible

When designing an application, developers might not put accessibility on top of their list. Plus, the developer might not have a handy list of what guidelines they should follow when thinking about accessible features. To address this issue, IBM has released a free toolkit and an accessibility checker that will help developers fine-tune their applications for people with disabilities. IBM’s new tools are divided into two parts: a set of public guidelines called IBM Equal Access Toolkit and a Checker that identifies shortcomings in your application from an accessibility standpoint. The guidelines provide byte-sized information to app developers with details on… This story continues at The Next WebOr just read more coverage about: IBM
