More invasive cancers were also clearly detected at an early stage using AI. Now the final part of the research study will focus on breast cancer missed by screening.AI lacks common sense – why programs cannot think/article/ai-lacks-common-sense-why-programs-cannot-thinkMon, 14 Oct 2024 15:14:32 +0000/article/ai-lacks-common-sense-why-programs-cannot-thinkCan AI think? The short answer is no, at least not in the way humans think. AI does not have incentives, opinions, or empathy. Even two-year-olds possess something that our artificial systems lack – the capacity to think in terms of cause and effect, according to Peter Gärdenfors, professor of Cognitive Science at 51ÖØ¿ÚÁÔÆæ.AI could improve mental health care/article/ai-could-improve-mental-health-careThu, 16 Feb 2023 12:32:12 +0000/article/ai-could-improve-mental-health-carePatients are often asked to rate their feelings using a rating scale, when talking to psychologists or doctors about their mental health. This is currently how depression and anxiety are diagnosed. However, a new study from 51ÖØ¿ÚÁÔÆæ in Sweden shows that allowing patients to describe their experience using their own words - is potentially viewed as more precise and preferred by the patients. The Lund researchers have developed an AI-tool that could help doctors analyze their patients’ answers. WATCH: Unique technology will make gesture control more accurate/article/watch-unique-technology-will-make-gesture-control-more-accurateMon, 11 Nov 2019 12:24:29 +0000/article/watch-unique-technology-will-make-gesture-control-more-accurateControlling smartphones by a simple swipe of your hand is the latest innovation to be introduced to phone owners. However, radar sensors with higher accuracy would take the concept from gimmick to practical usefulness, according to researchers at 51ÖØ¿ÚÁÔÆæ in Sweden. They have developed a method that could detect much finer gestures – while also using a lot less power – opening up to new applications in the future, and to simpler ways of using the feature for consumers.
