Made it to Frankfurt on the way to #elmi19. Reading about #China's guidelines for the creation, use and governance of #AI. Some nice surprises so far. baai.ac.cn/blog/beijing-a…
On the topic of the #aiprinciple published by the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence, the @techreview has a view: technologyreview.com/s/613610/why-d… Essentially it is a good thing that China is interested in talking about this - however, positive action needs to follow.
I agree this is a relevant step from BAAI and includes positive statements (with caveats): "Human privacy, dignity, freedom, autonomy, and rights should be sufficiently respected." That said, #AI is set to remove many of the jobs currently being done by Humans.
This is nearly guaranteed. We will need to evolve, embracing #AI most likely. Or we will in the long run become dispensable. Humans have huge potential to evolve with the "help" or AI but are we prepared to change what it means to be "human"?

We are particularly interested in characterizing the limits of #deeplearning based approaches to image restoration. You will find several experiments comparing several best-in-class approaches: #3DRCAN, #CARE, #SRResNet and #ESRGAN.
We will start to roll out #AiviaWeb at no cost to use, tomorrow. All #aivia functionality accessible via a web browser. This is part of our #covid19 mitigation plan - more actions soon so you can continue to be productive while #wfh. #bioimageanalyis#aiviacommunity#microscopy
Once you are signed up we will reach out to you with all the details including usage and booking guidelines. A webpage dedicated to our covid19 / wfh mitigation plan will be up very soon too. Many more resources are in the pipeline.
The Seattle metro region and the whole #PNW are being severely affected by the #COVID19outbreak. In >1 month we went from "there is a small cluster of cases in a nursing home" to "we need to lock down the whole region to avoid worst case scenarios" (not happened yet) 1/13
The (social) media frenzy is impressive. Even Facebook and others are worried their servers / data centers may not be able to cope with demand for long (cnn.com/2020/03/18/tec…). We have used social media for good - checking in on friends and family all over the world. 2/13
While this is a challenging time, there are many positive things to be thankful for. Personally, I am enjoying having more time with my young boys (4 and 6 yo) and wife. the boys are curious and scared about the whole story - but 3/13
