It is a cliche that not knowing history makes one repeat it. As many people have also pointed out, the only thing we learn from history is that we rarely learn anything from history. People engage in land wars in Asia over and over. They repeat the same dating mistakes, again and again. But why does this happen? And will technology put an end to it?

From chatbots and virtual assistants to fraud detection and risk management, artificial intelligence (AI) is now being used in many areas of finance. But what could an AI system like ChatGPT do for your bank balance?
AI tools might seem overly complex or expensive to non-experts, but advances in natural language processing and machine learning could turn ChatGPT and similar products into virtual personal finance assistants. This would mean having an expert on hand to help you make sense of the latest financial news and data.
April 21, 2023 /Media/ –There are a number of ways that newsrooms are introducing AI into their workflows. Some newsrooms are using AI to automate tasks, such as fact-checking and data analysis. Others are using AI to generate content, such as headlines and summaries. Still others are using AI to personalize content for readers. Some of the most common uses include: Continue reading
April 19, 2023 /Technology/ — A large language model (LLM) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that is trained on a massive amount of text data. This data can be anything from books and articles to social media posts and code. LLMs are able to learn the statistical relationships between words and phrases, which allows them to generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. LLMs can be used for a variety of tasks, including: Continue reading
April 19, 2023 /Technology/ — There are a few guidelines on how best to utilize AI tools for coding. Overall, AI tools can be a valuable asset for programmers. However, it is important to use them wisely and to be aware of their limitations. Here are a few tips: Continue reading
April 19, 2023 /Technology/ — Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the world in many ways. It is already being used in a variety of industries, including healthcare, finance, and transportation. In the future, AI is expected to have an even greater impact on our lives.
Here are some of the ways that AI is changing the world: Continue reading
April 18, 2023 /Technology/– Prompt engineering is the art (not science) of crafting effective instructions for AI models. It is a relatively new field, but it is quickly becoming an essential skill for anyone who wants to work with AI models.
Prompt engineering is important because AI models are not always able to understand what we want them to do. They are trained on large datasets of text and code, but they do not have the same understanding of language as humans do. This means that we need to be very careful when we give them instructions.

In 1956, during a year-long trip to London and in his early 20s, the mathematician and theoretical biologist Jack D. Cowan visited Wilfred Taylor and his strange new “learning machine”. On his arrival he was baffled by the “huge bank of apparatus” that confronted him. Cowan could only stand by and watch “the machine doing its thing”. The thing it appeared to be doing was performing an “associative memory scheme” – it seemed to be able to learn how to find connections and retrieve data.
