Going top shelf with AI to better track hockey data

Researchers from the University of Waterloo got a valuable assist from artificial intelligence (AI) tools to help capture and analyze data from professional hockey games faster and more accurately than ever before, with big implications for the business of sports. The growing field of hockey analytics currently relies on the manual analysis of video footage from games. Professional hockey teams across the sport, notably in the National Hockey League (NHL), make important decisions regarding players' careers based on that information. "The goal of our research is to interpret a hockey game through video more effectively and efficiently than a human,"…

Unactivated Windows 11 systems could soon block access to Microsoft Edge settings – gHacks Tech News

This leaves the operating system in an unactivated state. While the system works fine for the most part, it does display reminders and a watermark, and does prevent access to certain personalization options, such as setting wallpapers (there is a way around that). Windows 11 works fine in most areas. You can install programs, use the Microsoft Store, update the operating system, or make administrative changes. Soon, Microsoft may block access to…

Research vs. development: Where is the moat in AI?

Time's almost up! There's only one week left to request an invite to The AI Impact Tour on June 5th. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to explore various methods for auditing AI models. Find out how you can attend here. Research and development (R&D) is really a chimera — the mythological creature with two distinctive heads on one body.  Researchers have strong academic backgrounds and regularly publish papers, apply for patents and work on ideas that are likely to come to fruition over the course of years. Research departments deliver long-term value, discovering the future by asking tough…
