AI models for healthcare are proliferating, but most never leave the labs. Real-world deployment is far more complicated than any multiple-choice graduate exam – hospitals use different systems, data formats, and security protocols that resist standardization. Kaapana, an open-source platform developed at the German Cancer Research Center, addresses translation barriers by providing standardized infrastructure for medical AI research.
A new Visa study shows that artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a mainstream tool for planning winter vacations, shopping, and making reservations, with U.S. consumers increasingly turning to generative AI when making travel and spending decisions—especially in the context of the upcoming Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Nvidia announced on Monday the launch of Earth-2, a new family of open AI models, libraries, and tools designed to make advanced weather and climate forecasting accessible to a broader research, business, and government community.
A group of job seekers in the United States has filed a lawsuit seeking to subject artificial-intelligence systems used for résumé screening to the same transparency rules that apply to credit reporting agencies. The case could become one of the first legal tests of whether algorithmic candidate scoring falls under federal consumer-reporting law.
Inflation, exchange rates, sanctions, market panics—we dream of “calculating” all this in the era of big data.
