Researchers at the Baltimore-based biotech company Delfi Diagnostics have developed a machine learning-based blood testing technology that could greatly help detect early stages of lung cancer.

The researchers are hoping that improved screening and detection technologies could allow more cases of lung cancer to be spotted earlier, which could greatly improve outcomes.

“These results suggest that the Delfi lung cancer screening technology could help reduce lung cancer deaths by offering a convenient, high-performing test to people who are [United States Preventive Services Taskforce] eligible,” Delfi CMO Peter Bach said in a statement.

“We have already begun enrollment of a 1,700-patient, prospective, case-control study to generate the clinical evidence that would underpin a commercial lung screening test,” he added.

On Thursday, Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled the Tesla Bot, which runs on the same AI used in Tesla’s autonomous vehicles. This surprise reveal was shared at the end of Tesla’s AI Day presentation. Musk revealed very few details about the humanoid robot besides the fact that it is 5″ 8′ and weighs 125 pounds.

The Tesla Bot is to be built from lightweight materials, and its head will be fitted with the autopilot cameras used by Tesla’s vehicles for sensing the environment. The Bot will be operated by Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) computer.

As Tesla focuses on Artificial Intelligence (AI) upgrades for its electric vehicles, there has also been a focus on the Dojo supercomputer, which is intended to help train the EVs to navigate the streets without human assistance. Musk said that it only made sense to make the robot into a humanoid form and that it is intended to be friendly and help navigate through a world built for humans.

Are you ready?

After dominating the electric vehicle market and throwing his hat into the billionaire space race, Tesla boss Elon Musk announced the latest frontier he’s aiming to conquer: humanoid robots.

The irascible entrepreneur said Thursday he would have an initial prototype of an androgynous “Tesla Bot” by next year.

Based on the same technology as the company’s semi-autonomous vehicles, the robot will be able to perform basic repetitive tasks with the aim of eliminating the need for people to handle dangerous or boring work, Musk said at an online event on Tesla’s advances in artificial intelligence (AI).

I’d like to see anything as far as a Humanoid Robot. But, at this point i think it would be a mistake to try and re invent the wheel. Boston Dynamics last sold for 2 billion dollars, a steal really, and a shame they didn’t try to bring it back to the USA. Anyways, as far as Humanoid Robots, unless he is willing to solve the issue of building robotic hands that can perfectly match human hands this wont go anywhere. Once that is done though you have a realistic labor force for the Moon and Mars.

Tesla Inc. showcased its artificial-intelligence systems on Thursday amid renewed criticism for Autopilot, its most-talked-about AI-based system, as it unveiled its next big project: a humanoid robot.

At the company’s first AI Day, Chief Executive Elon Musk gave a preview of the Tesla Bot, a 5-foot-8-inch robot with a screen for a face, weighing about 125 pounds and capable of moving about 5 mph — slow enough for people to run away from and small enough so a human could overpower it, Musk joked. He said a prototype is expected next year.

Musk said building a humanoid robot is a logical next step for Tesla, since, he said, it’s already “the world’s biggest robotics company,” with its cars basically robots. The humanoid robot will use all the tools in Tesla’s vehicles — sensors, cameras, neural networks, etc. — to autonomously navigate the outside world.

Whenever one talks about technology that is revolutionizing the world around you, AI (Artificial Intelligence) is always on the top of the list. In fact, as per the study conducted by IDC, the spending on AI technologies is expected to increase to $97.9 billion by 2023. While the world struggles with the Pandemic, AI technology is constantly growing. Why? You ask. Well, with organizations and companies operating from home, AI is evolving more every day to help them automate their day-to-day activity.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is a branch of Computer science that is focused on building smart machines. This is the technology that enables machines to think and act with human intelligence. While most of you might be aware of what AI is, still do you know that AI along with the rising technologies ML (Machine Learning) and Deep Learning have made and are making several trendsetting changes in the market.

Here, we are going to list the latest AI (Artificial Intelligence) trends that are lighting a spark in 2021. Let’s start the list without any ado.

In March, the departments of Energy, Interior and Commerce said they were aiming for U.S. offshore wind capacity to hit 30 gigawatts (GW) by 2,030 a hugely optimistic goal that would require thousands of new wind turbines to be installed off the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts.

With federal support locked in, now it’s up to developers and operators to figure out where it’s safe to install offshore wind farms and pursue permits.

Bedrock, a Richmond, California, start-up, wants to help them map the seafloor using electric autonomous underwater vehicles (e-AUV) that can launch right from the shore.
