Posted: March 11, 2022 at 11:48 am
RICHMOND, Va., March 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --SingleComm, the most powerful, affordable CCaaS solution available, is designing customized solutions that leverage industry-leading artificial intelligence (AI) tools while maintaining an authentic human touch.
"We've always provided our clients with advanced technologies, whether that's IVR or drag-and-drop workflows, and we're currently designing AI solutions that can be real-game changers for building efficiencies into staffing," says Michael Puccinelli, CEO and founder of SingleComm. "Like any other tool, AI should be viewed as something that can improve the performance of the humans on your team rather than something that replaces them altogether. Our solutions do just that."
SingleComm's approach to AI is aimed at increasing productivity by enhancing the skills of contact center representatives. Machine learning continues to make strides that were unimaginable just a few years ago, but AI programs only perform the functions they are designed to perform. In other words, tech shouldn't be perceived as something that can take over a contact center; it should be leveraged to make contact centers more efficient. It should also be customized to best meet a client's specific needs.
SingleComm's AI solutions streamline processes and tasks to improve efficiencies and free up teams to focus on exceptional customer service. Benefits include:
Personalization SingleComm's AI can tailor the customer experience based on information the platform has learned about the caller and his/her needs and attributes.
AI-Based Customer Routing The ability to match customers with the best resource or agent increases contact center efficiency while saving the customer's time.
Chatbots and Conversational Assistants These tools interact with customers by text or voice, taking care of simple and/or repetitive issues. When utilized correctly, these tools free up contact center representatives to focus on more complex assistance needs.
Workforce Management SingleComm's software has data analysis capabilities that help predict when agents and resources are needed.
Post Call Wrap-Up AI helps representatives enter call-action summaries and wrap-up codes. This limits the valuable time that representatives use to spend on "busy work."
Pucinelli adds, "Now more than ever, it is critical that contact centers be prepared to deliver immediate assistance around the clock. Our tight labor market has increased the degree of difficulty surrounding this deliverable. AI can significantly improve call center readiness, and we believe these technologies should work in concert with representatives, amplifying their skills while providing customers the human touch they expect and want."

Update on Artificial Intelligence: USPTO Urges Federal Circuit to Affirm Decision That AI Cannot Qualify as an Inventor – JD Supra
Posted: at 11:48 am
In three previous blog posts, we have discussed recent inventorship issues surrounding Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its implications for life sciences innovations focusing specifically on scientist Stephen Thalers attempt to obtain a patent for an invention created by his AI system called DABUS (Device for Autonomus Bootstrapping of Unified Sentence). Most recently, we considered Thalers appeal of the September 3, 2021 decision out of the Eastern District of Virginia, which ruled that under the Patent Act, an AI machine cannot qualify as an inventor. Continuing this series, we now consider the USPTOs recently filed opposition to Thalers appeal.
In its opposition brief, the USPTO argued that under the plain language Congress chose to incorporate in the Patent Act, only a human being can be considered an inventor. The USPTO first noted that the definitions of inventor and joint inventor under the Patent Act both unequivocally refer only to an individual or individuals. For example, inventor is defined under the Act as the individual or, if a joint invention, the individuals collectively who invented or discovered the subject matter of the invention.
While the Patent Act does not explicitly define the term individual, the USPTO argued that in other instances where the term is not explicitly defined, courts have interpreted Congresss use of the term individual in a given statute as denoting a human being, as opposed to other things. The USPTO provided the example of Mohamad v. Palestinian Auth., a 2012 case in which the Supreme Court evaluated whether Congresss use of the term individual in the Torture Victim Protection Act (TVPA) could be construed to include an organization. There, the Court quoted from several well-known dictionaries and considered the use of the term in everyday parlance, to determine that the ordinary meaning of the term individual refers only to a human being or natural person. The Court in Mohamad also referred to the Dictionary Act, 1 U.S.C. 1, which provides that the legislative use of the term individual denotes something separate and apart from non-human beings.
The USPTO argued that the Supreme Courts analysis in Mohamad is equally applicable to the Patent Act as it is to the TVPA. For example, the term individual is used in the Patent Act as a noun, just as it is in the TVPA. And, according to the USPTO, just as the Mohamad Court recognized no onerefers in normal parlance to an organization as an individual, it is equally true that no one refers in normal parlance to a machine or collection of source code as an individual. Further, the USPTO pointed out that the Dictionary Act applies not only to the TVPA, but to all congressional enactments including the Patent Act.
Though the Supreme Courts opinion in Mohamad acknowledges that Congress is free to give the term individual a broader or different meaning, such broader construction by a court requires some affirmative indication [that Congress] intended such a result. Here, the USPTO argues that Thaler has never pointed to any textual evidence that Congress intended a broader meaning for the term. The USPTO argues that Thaler has only put forth non-textual policy arguments. For example, Thaler argues that denying inventorship to AI would place the United States behind other countries [that] are promoting the progress of science, and would amount to adopt[ing] luddism. However, according to the USPTO, these policy considerations cannot overcome the plain meaning of the text.
We will continue to monitor this appeal, as it has important implications for life sciences companies employing AI technologies, particularly given the low probability that Congress will act on this issue in the short term.

6 Ways Data Science and Artificial Intelligence is Driving Innovation to Help the Environment
Data science is preparing data for analysis. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the implementation of a predictive model to forecast future events and helps computers or machines or robots controlled by computers to work as an alternative to humans.
With Data Science and AI becoming a transformative phenomenon for businesses and consumers, its vital to how it impacts the environment and embraces the challenges confronted in an increasingly populated, polluted and competitive world. The global AI and data science market is estimated to value more than $309 billion and $230 billion respectively. The technological advancements and initiatives in this field could have a significant impact on the environment.
Electric vehicles are good for the environment. They generate lesser greenhouse gases and cause less pollution. It is true even if we account for the electricity required to use them. Unmanned or automated driving, studying driver behaviour patterns, GPS navigation systems are some advancements where AI is playing a key role in the EV Industry. The implementation of AI in improving EVs, facilitating EV charging stations, and EV integration with the smart grid will encourage people to adopt electric vehicles and open a new pathway of eco-driving thus helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
As per research, in India more than 50 kg of food is wasted per person in a year, calculating to about 68,760,163 tonnes and is ranked at 94th position out of 107 countries. In fact, every country generates food waste at the consumer level irrespective of their income levels.
Given the pressure on already severely depleted soils to provide food for an ever-growing global population and the fact that roughly a third of food is never eaten, innovative AI technology can be used for overcoming this issue. Retailers can use AI to check and dispose of food items before they turn bad. Data analysis helps to calculate and predict the volume of food consumption in restaurants and households for them to reduce food waste eventually. Besides, AI could significantly improve packaging, increase the shelf life of food items, avoid food wastage by making a more transparent supply chain management system.
The recycling system of waste needs to be transformed urgently, as most of the waste generated over the year is mostly of single-use products. As per research in 2019, 660,787.85 tonnes of plastic waste was generated in India, out of which only 60% was recycled. One particular difficulty with recycling is the issue of segregation of waste. The use of robots that have sensors to separate different types of waste will help in a quicker and easier way of recycling as each product varies in its texture, shape and size. AI can also be used for creating an automated waste disposal system. Another way is by using image recognition technology which helps to collect information on waste and find alternative material solutions, eventually improving the recycling pattern of waste.
Sewage pollution is yet another concern, especially here in India. The major cause of increasing sewage pollution is that most of the problems go undetected. However, the use of pattern recognition, an AI technique, would help to monitor and track the wastewater flow. Besides, algorithms can detect patterns and create critical data for research and analysis for future improvements.
Over the years, the population of wildlife species has been continuously depleting. AI and data science help environmentalists to study the movement of animals and other species, their behaviour, the routes they follow their reproduction and hunting patterns. It helps curtail poaching and is an effective way of surveillance, for instance by using drones with cameras. Currently, there are environmental, sustainability projects taking place using AI and data science, to prevent forest fires and monitor wildlife. It also helps the environmentalists to monitor rare wildlife species populations and track them on cameras with smart sensors.
AI and data science can in the coming future be applied to thousands of issues affecting the environment. Data from various Space Research Centres can be used with help of AI technology to identify and monitor changes in land and sea areas, ice caps etc. Besides, data analysis can be done to reduce pollution and help fight Climate Change.
These technological solutions using AI and data science could help solve some of the most difficult environmental challenges.

TechTank Podcast Episode 39: Civil rights and artificial intelligence: Can the two concepts coexist? – Brookings Institution
Posted: at 11:48 am
Artificial intelligence is now used in virtually all aspects of our lives. Yet unchecked biases within existing algorithmic systems, especially those used in sensitive use cases like financial services, hiring, policing, and housing, have worsened existing societal biases, resulting in the continued systemic discrimination of historically marginalized groups. As banks increase AI usage in loan and appraisal decisions, these populations are subjected to an even greater precision in denials, eroding protections provided by civil rights laws in housing. Meanwhile, the use of facial recognition technologies among law enforcement has resulted in the wrongful arrests of innocent men and women of color through poor data quality and misidentification. These online biases are intrinsically connected to the historical legacies that predate existing and emerging technologies and stand to challenge the policies created to protect historically disadvantaged populations. Can civil rights and algorithmic systems coexist? And, if so, what roles do government agencies and industries play in ensuring fairness, diversity, and inclusion?
On TechTank, Nicol Turner Lee is joined by Renee Cummings, data activist in residence and criminologist at the University of Virginias School of Data Science, and Lisa Rice, president and CEO of the National Fair Housing Alliance. Together, they conduct a deep dive into these difficult questions and offer insight on remedies to this pressing question of equitable AI.

Artificial intelligence innovation among power industry companies has dropped off in the last year – Power Technology
Posted: at 11:48 am
Research and innovation in artificial intelligence (AI) in the power industry operations and technologies sector has declined in the last year. The most recent figures show that the number of AI-related patent applications in the industry stood at 84 in the three months ending January down from 191 over the same period in 2020.
Figures for patent grants related to AI followed a similar pattern to filings shrinking from 64 in the three months ending January 2020 to 10 in the same period in 2021.
The figures are compiled by GlobalData, which tracks patent filings and grants from official offices around the world. Using textual analysis, as well as official patent classifications, these patents are grouped into key thematic areas, and linked to key companies across various industries.
AI is one of the key areas tracked by GlobalData. It has been identified as being a key disruptive force facing companies in the coming years, and is one of the areas that companies investing resources in now are expected to reap rewards from.The figures also provide an insight into the largest innovators in the sector.
Siemens was the top AI innovator in the power industry operations and technologies sector in the latest quarter. The company, which has its headquarters in Germany, filed 51 AI-related patents in the three months ending January. That was down from 125 over the same period in 2020.
It was followed by the US-based Honeywell International with 21 AI patent applications, South Korea-based Korea Electric Power (19 applications), and the US-based 3M (10 applications).
Korea Electric Power has recently ramped up R&D in AI. It saw growth of 68.4% in related patent applications in the three months ending January compared to the same period in 2020 the highest percentage growth out of all companies tracked, with more than 10 quarterly patents in the power industry operations and technologies sector.

Looking at 2030: The Future of Artificial Intelligence and Metaverse – Analytics Insight
Posted: at 11:48 am
An analytic predictive study for the future of artificial intelligence and metaverse in 2030
With the pace artificial intelligence is intertwining within our lives, there is no doubt that it will not end anytime soon. Rather, the future looks like a society that would breathe and thrive through artificial intelligence only. Experts believe that specialized AI applications will become both increasingly common and more useful by 2030, improving our economy and quality of life. On the other hand, metaverse already has us wrapped in its not so little fingers. From Facebook to Instagram, virtual reality, Whatsapp, and many more, it is quite predictable that by 2030, its empire would only grow further.
A report published from Harvard University presents the eight areas of human activity in which Artificial intelligence technologies are already affecting urban life and will be even more pervasive by 2030: transportation, home/service robots, health care, education, entertainment, low-resource communities, public safety and security, employment, and the workplace will be fully AI-enabled spaces. Some of the biggest challenges in the next 15 years will be creating safe and reliable hardware for autonomous cars and healthcare robots; gaining public trust for Artificial intelligence systems, especially in low-resource communities; and overcoming fears that the technology will marginalize humans in the workplace.
Weve seen a lot of breakthroughs in data analytics. The example of Watson which is an IBM set of algorithms has been very impressive in terms of managing large amounts of data, and ways of structuring the data so that you can see patterns that may have not emerged otherwise. That has been an important leap. But oftentimes, people confuse that leap with machine intelligence and the way that we think about intelligence for humans and its simply not true. So the big leaps that we have had recently in data analytics are important but it also leaves a lot of room for humans to assist these systems. So, it can be said that the wave of the future is the collaboration of humans and these artificial intelligence technologies.
In its fully realized form, the metaverse promises to offer true-to-life sights, sounds, and even smells, whether a tour of ancient Greece or a visit to a Seoul caf can happen from your home. Decked out with full-spectrum VR headsets, smart clothing, and tactile-responsive haptic gloves, the at-home traveler can touch the Parthenon in Athens or taste the rich foam of a Korean dalgona coffee. You wouldnt even have to be you. Members of the metaverse could prowl the Brazilian rainforest as a jaguar or take the court at Madison Square Garden as LeBron James. The only limits are your imagination. It is also expected that using a blend of physical and behavioral biometrics, emotion recognition, sentiment analysis, and personal data, the metaverse will be able to create a customized and enhanced reality for each person.
While the metaverse industry is growing fast, fueled by the pandemic keeping people at home, its an open question as to whether one company will eventually emerge as the dominant force, such as Google, which now has a near-monopoly among search engines. One positive side of this trend is that since it is a virtual platform, the chances of people actually getting physically hurt will lessen, and also it will encourage them to get out of their comfort zone to try new things. The only wondering question left to ask on this matter will be the legal implications of the metaverse. For example, whether a marriage in the metaverse will be legal or if someone is assaulted in the metaverse, how the convict will be penalized. With the virtual avatar trend, there are huge chances of false identity or theft of identity, so recognizing the right person and their physical address can be a difficult job. This should be a major concern for all of the countries and their legislative and crime division.
