AI and Bias – AI Thought Experiment
Is AI inherently biased? We go to Harvard’s campus to explore the possible dangers and side-effects of biased artificial intelligence (AI) systems, as well as what the AI community can do to prevent and...

This is the decade to be alive. We’re going to see massive shifts in our lives, from the way we work to the way nature, supply chains, and every other process imaginable works. The...
Your self-driving electric car is zipping along the road and out of nowhere, a child runs onto the street right in front of you. The car’s onboard AI algorithm has two choices – either...
The advent of self-driving technology has inspired a host of different, creative business models. Waymo and Uber plan to use a ride-sharing model, with a self-owned fleet. Tesla offers private self-driving technology in their...
Dear Saudi Arabia, Watch out. The demand for oil has grown steadily in recent years. Ignoring the 2008 Recession’s temporary dip in demand, oil producers are continually supplying production factories, houses, and transportation. However,...
Bit by bit, we’re building the car of the future. Speed control? Check. Trajectory planning? Check. Road sign reading? Pretty much check. But that’s only a portion of what must be done. As explained...
… and other autonomous systems. We like to believe that everything is in order. Indeed, in a world where visionary ideas and topics can quickly attract attention, making big claims has never been easier....

8 million. That’s the number of miles Waymo (formerly part of Google) cars drive every day [1]. No, not in real-life — in a simulation! Miles are important. The more miles driven, the better....
One of the first things a child learns about driving is that Green means Go, and Red means Stop. These all have to do with the very fundamental core of driving: the stoplight. Stoplights...
Autonomous Vehicle (AV) technology is slowly growing in both popularity and success in the artificial intelligence community. With such technology comes the promise of a future where the elderly no longer have to touch...
In the last post, we talked about numerous ways the government could fix the USCIS immigration system (from their side). However, there are also numerous ways private efforts can help “modernize” the immigration system....
Stare at the image on the left. Then stare at the image on the right. Notice a difference? The left represents the current state of the immigration process – long, messy, and overly complicated....
In September 2018, the Trump Administration released a new immigration policy that could affect millions of immigrants. In the past, any immigration applicant that made a mistake on their application forms (missing information or...
Imagine a world where supercomputers and AI algorithms do all Wall Street trading at lightning speed, without human intervention, and all the money in the world is managed by AI. Surprisingly enough, we aren’t...
What’s the point of self-driving cars if no one can afford it? In this article, we examine how a balance is needed between development and policy – in three different pillars of historical themes....

For centuries, humans created stories of great Gods and supernatural powers that dominated the Earth. For the first time, AI and the robots it powers may be the next true superhuman power. What will...
Whether you’re an expert in Artificial Intelligence, or a newbie aspiring to be one, this book takes a completely new approach in teaching Deep Learning, as well as the process of creating a stock...
10 years ago, the thought of a tiny, self-flying drone with a gun on it would be laughable. But 10 years later, with the dawn of state-of-the-art Deep Learning technology, the impossible is now...
