Researchers have developed a self-administered smartphone app to screen for Alzheimer’s disease by analyzing speech patterns. With subtle speech disturbances being an early indicator, this may be an easy way to obtain a diagnosis quicker.
-
Heart failure can be caused by multiple factors, requiring different treatments. Researchers have trained machine learning models using a large dataset to identify five subtypes of heart failure, which may improve risk prediction and treatment.
-
For deaf and hearing impaired people, voice recognition technology can be a barrier to effective communication. Now, researchers have used AI to develop a tool that converts sign language to text, potentially increasing inclusivity and accessibility.

Blind people using white canes are limited in how fast they can walk, as they have to wait for their cane to hit obstacles before going around them. The NextGuide cane is different, in that it steers users around obstacles that they've yet to reach.
-
Heart attack symptoms are sometimes similar to other non-heart-related conditions. UK researchers have used machine learning to develop a fast, highly accurate tool for helping doctors diagnose the potentially fatal condition.
-
Badly bloodied by OpenAI's GPT-4, Google has struck back with a new, more powerful large language model (LLM) to upgrade Bard and create a suite of new AI services – starting with a model targeted at doctors. It also teased its next-gen Gemini AI.

It goes without saying that the cameras on self-driving cars can't see around the corners of buildings. The ORCa computer vision system, however, could one day allow them to do so … with a little help from shiny objects that they can see.
-
Parkinson’s disease is growing rapidly, which makes its early detection so important. Researchers have developed a new machine-learning algorithm than analyzes metabolites and shows promise as a way of detecting the disease early.
-
These days, ChatGPT is a hot topic of conversation. New research has found that, compared to human doctors, ChatGPT is more empathetic and provides higher-quality responses to patients, begging the question: are doctors replaceable?
-
Stroke can be tricky to diagnose as patients don’t always present with classic symptoms, and other conditions can mimic it. Researchers have now developed a machine-learning model that accurately predicts stroke and may make diagnosis easier.
-
Creative AI is pure theft, according to many artists, scooping up and subsuming styles and techniques that may have taken years to develop. Glaze offers something of a solution – a "cloaking" layer specifically designed to ruin AI-attempted imitations.
-
Stanford's Alpaca AI performs similarly to the astonishing ChatGPT on many tasks – but it's built on an open-source language model and cost less than US$600 to train up. It seems these godlike AIs are already frighteningly cheap and easy to replicate.
