    How to Secure AI Training Data

    Artificial intelligence (AI) needs data and a lot of it. Gathering the necessary information is not always a challenge in today’s environment, with many public datasets available and so much data generated every day. Securing it, however, is another matter. The vast size of AI training datasets and the impact of the AI models invite

  • How Does Synthetic Data Impact AI Hallucinations?

    How Does Synthetic Data Impact AI Hallucinations?

    Although synthetic data is a powerful tool, it can only reduce artificial intelligence hallucinations under specific circumstances. In almost every other case, it will amplify them. Why is this? What does this phenomenon mean for those who have invested in it?  How Is Synthetic Data Different From Real Data? Synthetic data is information that is

    Are AI-Powered Traffic Cameras Watching You Drive?

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere today. While that’s an exciting prospect to some, it’s an uncomfortable thought for others. Applications like AI-powered traffic cameras are particularly controversial. As their name suggests, they analyze footage of vehicles on the road with machine vision. They’re typically a law enforcement measure — police may use them to catch

  • AI Breakthroughs in Endoscopy

    AI Breakthroughs in Endoscopy

    Artificial intelligence (AI) has vast potential in the medical field. It’s particularly valuable in procedures like endoscopy that, despite being common, require complex analysis and expert insight. The health care industry hasn’t overlooked this opportunity, either, as early uses of AI in endoscopy have already driven promising results. Endoscopy is the process of examining patients’
