The advances of AI in healthcare

Article | July 20, 2022

With the Government investing £250 million into the project, the Lab will consider how to use AI for the benefit of patients – whether this be the deployment of existing AI methods, the development of new technologies or the testing of their safety. Amongst other things, the initiative will aim to deliver earlier diagnoses of cancer. It is estimated that in excess of 50,000 extra patients could see their cancer being detected at an early stage, thus boosting survival rates. More specifically, a study has shown that AI is quicker in identifying brain tumour tissue than a pathologist.This would have a positive knock-on effect in other areas, such as enabling money to be saved (that otherwise would have been spent on further treatment) and reducing the workload of staff (at a time when there is a crisis in NHS workforce numbers).

Tableau Expands Data Capabilities With AI-Driven Insights

Demand Gen Report | September 26, 2019

Tableau Software has released new data capabilities with the addition of Explain Data, which aims to enhance statistical analysis and help users gain AI-driven insights from their data. The company said that the new capability uses statistical methods to determine potential explanations for what could be influencing a data point, while providing further understanding of that explanation with interactive visualizations. With Explain Data, we're bringing the power of AI-driven analysis to everyone and making sophisticated statistical analysis more accessible so that, regardless of expertise, anyone can quickly and confidently uncover the 'Why?' behind their data," said Francois Ajenstat, Chief Product Officer at Tableau. "Explain Data will empower people to focus on the insights that matter and accelerate the time to action and business impact."

AT&T turns up AI for drones, load balancing, 5G build out

Fierce Telecom | September 26, 2019

As part of its close embrace network artificial intelligence (AI), AT&T is testing drones in New Jersey to inspect cell sites, and researching the use AI to define network policies. AT&T's Mazin Gilbert outlined his company's blueprint for artificial intelligence and machine learning on Tuesday during a keynote address at the TM Forum Action Week conference. While AT&T has successfully embraced virtualization of its network using software-defined network (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV)—it's on track to reach its goal of 75% virtualization of the core network by next year—Gilbert said that's not enough in a world of 5G and IoT and increasing consumption of bandwidth. The network can't be just software," said Gilbert, vice president, advanced technology systems, AT&T Labs. "The network needs to be autonomous and pretty much zero touch. It needs intelligence to know when it repairs itself, when it secures itself. The network needs to be contextual, personalized."
