For our last chapter of #EmTechDigital sessions, we'll hear from AI researchers and then to close, David Ferrucci from @elementalcog will pull back the curtain on AI. First up: @agrimgupta92 from Stanford is interested in how the form of a machine changes its ability to learn, shifting the focus away from learning algorithms operating by themselves and onto learning combined with a kind of bodily evolution. #EmTechDigital

Since 2018, the US Justice Department has been engaged in a controversial law enforcement and counterintelligence effort to fight Chinese economic espionage. In the most comprehensive analysis of cases to date, we reveal how far it has strayed. trib.al/x7AJ6mN Our findings demonstrate the “disproportionate impact on Asian Americans and the immigrant community,” says one attorney. “This is resulting in a brain drain from and distrust towards the United States, which is counter-productive to national security.” trib.al/x7AJ6mN

Machine learning-based cybersecurity is only as good as the detection models it’s based on. This #CyberSecure session with Ignacio Arnaldo of @corelight_inc looks at requirements and best practices. In the previous block of sessions, we touched on how, in 2018, @Darktrace showed that unsupervised-learning models can spot hackers who have already broken in. technologyreview.com/2018/11/16/139…
