    An AI quadcopter has beaten human champions at drone racing

    NPR, 08/30/23. A small drone powered by artificial intelligence (AI) has proved its capabilities by outperforming human competitors in a race course. The quadcopter drone, equipped with an AI brain, won 15 out of 25 races against human rivals. This achievement marks the first time AI has challenged and beaten human champions in a real-world competitive sport. While computers have excelled in games such as chess and Go, this victory demonstrates AI’s potential in real-world competitions. The drone’s success came from a combination of AI and conventional programming strategies, including reinforcement learning to determine the best route. Although the drone has limitations and needs to overcome external disturbances and changing conditions, its performance showcases the readiness of AI to transition from virtual to real-world applications.

    Sobering Reports on AI for CPR, Cancer Treatment Advice

    Harvard Medical School, 08/30/23. Two recent studies led by Harvard Medical School researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital have highlighted limitations in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare. The first study found that AI-based voice assistants, such as Amazon’s Alexa and Apple’s Siri, often provided irrelevant or inconsistent information when guiding individuals on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Experts recommend calling emergency services for optimal CPR guidance. The second study discovered that ChatGPT, an AI-powered tool, did not reliably give evidence-based recommendations for cancer treatments. Researchers emphasize the importance of seeking guidance from clinicians for accurate and individualized advice. These findings underscore the need for further development and standardization of AI tools in healthcare. READ THE ARTICLE
