Hi Edna. You're quite right. Any AI based system is only as good as the data it has to go on, so it's crucial that a system as important as this has accurate and reliable data to work with. Hopefully they'll be working to ensure this is the case.
The number of fatalities on the road would suggest otherwise Betty.
It's a shame that they couldn't prove themselves to the regulator, but understandable that the technology is subject to scrutiny.
Yes, I saw that. A sensible decision I think.
Interesting find Fabian, thanks for sharing.
Hi David, thanks for your comment, and as per my reply to Jennifer, my apologies for not replying sooner. As a Brit I very much took my definition from the Cambridge dictionary "to talk informally with someone, especially in a way that is not sincere or to win some advantage for yourself", but fully accept that I hadn't explored the original origins of the phrase, nor the different ways in which it's applied. Thanks for the heads up.
Hi Jennifer, thanks for stopping by, and apologies for not replying sooner - I've been on holiday for the past 10 days. I will certainly do that. I'm English, so took the term in the sense that the Cambridge dictionary does "to talk informally with someone, especially in a way that is not sincere or to win some advantage for yourself", but I accept that may divert from its origins.
I believe it should ship in March 2017, but you can pre-order it via the website for a reduced price for another two weeks.
Not that I know of Chris. Things are a bit harder with mental health as there is still so much that is not understood about what causes it and how to treat it. There have been a number of innovations for instance looking at the behavioral side of mental health rather than the pharmacological aspects of treatment. If you do a search for 'mental health' or 'depression' you should be able to find a few on the site.
