Google Cloud's AI image recognition code 'biased' against darker-skinned people
Google Cloud’s computer vision algorithms are accused of being biased: an experiment probing Google’s commercial image recognition models, via its Vision API, revealed the possibly biased nature of its training data. Algorithm Watch fed an image of someone with dark skin holding a temperature gun into the API, and the object was labelled as a “gun.” But when a photo of someone with fair skin holding the same object was fed into the cloud service, the temperature gun was recog

Empowering companies to leverage AI to step ahead of fraud
Current anti-fraud tools are lethargic and ineffective when it comes to preventing fraud. At present, tools to prevent money laundering are reactive rather than proactive in their fight against financial crime. They often merely patch gaps which have previously been exploited by fraudsters by which time it is too late. Ideally, AML should be one step ahead of fraudulent activity, for too long has it lagged behind. However with the ever-expanding applications of AI, the tide m
