This Artificial Intelligence Paper Presents an Advanced Method for Differential Privacy in Image Recognition with Better Accuracy

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, finance, information science, robotics/AI

Machine learning has increased considerably in several areas due to its performance in recent years. Thanks to modern computers’ computing capacity and graphics cards, deep learning has made it possible to achieve results that sometimes exceed those experts give. However, its use in sensitive areas such as medicine or finance causes confidentiality issues. A formal privacy guarantee called differential privacy (DP) prohibits adversaries with access to machine learning models from obtaining data on specific training points. The most common training approach for differential privacy in image recognition is differential private stochastic gradient descent (DPSGD). However, the deployment of differential privacy is limited by the performance deterioration caused by current DPSGD systems.

The existing methods for differentially private deep learning still need to operate better since that, in the stochastic gradient descent process, these techniques allow all model updates regardless of whether the corresponding objective function values get better. In some model updates, adding noise to the gradients might worsen the objective function values, especially when convergence is imminent. The resulting models get worse as a result of these effects. The optimization target degrades, and the privacy budget is wasted. To address this problem, a research team from Shanghai University in China suggests a simulated annealing-based differentially private stochastic gradient descent (SA-DPSGD) approach that accepts a candidate update with a probability that depends on the quality of the update and the number of iterations.

Concretely, the model update is accepted if it gives a better objective function value. Otherwise, the update is rejected with a certain probability. To prevent settling into a local optimum, the authors suggest using probabilistic rejections rather than deterministic ones and limiting the number of continuous rejections. Therefore, the simulated annealing algorithm is used to select model updates with probability during the stochastic gradient descent process.

OpenAI successfully trained a Minecraft bot using 70,000 hours of gameplay videos

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, bitcoin, finance, robotics/AI

This superintelligent AI is quite astounding learning similarly to a human even. What I am wanting someday is from labor to digital commerce like bitcoin to even stock markets to everything could essentially automated. Also with the neuralink we could essentially have similar intelligence as the superintelligence allowing for humans to attain a superintelligent level of abilities. I think with DNA computers could be better than essentially for implants or essentially downloading information onto human DNA computers or even brain downloads from simple impulses from devices could give binary code files for abilities or making the superintelligence abilities a simple download rather than other forms of technology.


OpenAI has always focused on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning advances that benefit humanity. Recently, the company successfully trained a bot to play Minecraft using more than 70,000 hours of gameplay videos. The achievement is far more than just a bot playing a game. It marks a giant stride forward in advanced machine learning using observation and imitation.

Binance deploys $1 billion to keep crypto industry afloat after FTX collapse

Posted by in categories: finance, transportation

In the first court hearing for the bankruptcy case on Tuesday, a lawyer for the company gave a damning verdict of FTX and its leadership, saying the company was run as the “personal fiefdom” of Bankman-Fried.

Binance said the vehicle “is not an investment fund” and is intended to support companies and projects that, “through no fault of their own, are facing significant, short term, financial difficulties.” Zhao has said previously it is his intention to prevent further “cascading contagion effects” stemming from FTX’s collapse.

Binance said it anticipates the program will last around six months. It is accepting applications from investors to contribute additional funds.

Cell therapy process for heart regeneration may advance treatment of cardiovascular disease

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, finance

A researcher at the University of Houston College of Pharmacy is reporting an effective protocol for reprogramming human heart cells into specialized cells that conduct electricity throughout the heart to enable rhythmic heartbeat and repair diseased hearts. Bradley McConnell, professor of pharmacology, is the first to demonstrate the process and is reporting it in iScience.

It could be a massive breakthrough.

Currently, there are no treatments for cardiac cell death, the underlying basis of cardiovascular disease (CVD), which remains the leading cause of death globally. By 2035, CVD prevalence is expected to increase to 45.1% (more than 130 million people) in the U.S. while the financial cost is projected to increase by more than $131 million over the next two decades, reaching an astounding $1.1 trillion.

New York Leads World’s Most Innovative Cities

Posted by in categories: finance, robotics/AI, sustainability, transportation

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) may be slowly making its way toward Ark Invest’s Golden Goose scenario, which involves a $22,000 price target pre-split.

At the beginning of 2020, ARK Invest released its updated TSLA valuation based on new research it had collected at the time. ARK analysts described ten difference scenarios Tesla could take leading up to 2024 and gave each one a price target.

Tesla seems to be on track to hit the scenario ARK Invest labeled “The High Functioning EV Company” which has a price target of $3,400. Keep in mind that ARK released these estimates before Tesla announced the stock split. In this scenario, Tesla manages to lower costs and build factories efficiently, but doesn’t launch its autonomous network.

Tesla is the most profitable company on the planet, says Baron Capital

Posted by in categories: finance, futurism

That is the claim of Ron Baron, who invested 6.7 billion in Tesla.

Baron Capital one of the largest and well respected of all the financial firms, held a live event for investors this year. This was the first live event for the firm since 2019, and it was held at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. The main guest was Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla. The focus was Tesla will become the most profitable company in the world.

There were 5,000 investors present at the event, and they all had a chance to hear where the Tesla CEO thinks the company is going in the future.
