Picture this: It’s a stormy night in the middle of July and a 500-foot long cargo ship charges east through the Atlantic Ocean. There’s nothing unusual about the ship at first glance. The cylindrical vessel sports a futuristic design like a surfaced submarine, it’s sleek hull sculpted to slice through waves with ease. But step on board and things are out of the ordinary. The bridge is gone. The living quarters have been removed. There’s not a human crewmember in sight. Cars may dominate today’s discussion about the future of autonomous transportation but some of the world’s largest maritime companies are betting big on autonomous shipping. Within the next decade, driverless ships like the one just described could be hauling cargo around the world. Over the past few years, companies like Rolls-Royce Marine and Japanese shipping giant Nippon Yusen have shared plans to send remote and autonomous ships to sea. These ships will remain crewed to begin with, but as the technology … [Read more...] about Autonomous Ships? Container Ship Companies Are Betting Big On Autonomy | Digital Trends

The iPad — and iPadOS — are still far away from the computing dreams that Apple is selling, even though there is enough firepower inside these sleek tablets to race far ahead of Windows PCs.  I’ve extensively used the 10th Gen iPad , and the M1-powered iPad Pro briefly, as my primary computer.

Among the most lauded essays ever written about the game of tennis is David Foster Wallace’s 2006 article “ Roger Federer as Religious Experience .” Originally appearing in the New York Times, the approximately 6,000-word tribute to one of the world’s most supremely talented players reads, as its title makes clear, more like a divine celebration than a piece of sportswriting. Contents What makes a good highlight? The future of sport Wallace (and he was certainly not the first writer to do this) gushed about high-level sporting achievements as though they were more than just superb technique; as if they were, somehow, a transcendent portal to godliness. Ordinary mortals like you and I could comprehend what was happening, but only barely. In order to truly appreciate Federer’s athletic feats, we needed a member of the priesthood — a talented youth player like Wallace had been — who could make it intelligible to us. Why mention Wallace’s almost decade-and-half old … [Read more...] about IBM’s Wimbledon-watching A.I. Is Poised To Revolutionize Sports Broadcasts | Digital Trends

As such, it’s obvious that many sports lend themselves nicely to the type of mathematical analyses that let keen-eyed statisticians predict outcomes — maybe even exact scores — just by crunching a bunch of numbers. After all, that’s the basis of sports betting, and it’s helped baseball managers craft winning teams on a tight budget just by considering little more than batting average, runs batted in, and stolen bases. But what happens when artificial intelligence algorithms are used to do what they do best — pick out patterns in data that human eyes typically can’t catch? Could these algorithms undermine the “house” and turn sports betting on its head? The prediction predicament Athletic events are chock full of juicy data that A.I. developers would probably love to feed to their algorithms. A power forward’s field goal percentage, a running back’s rushing yards, and a midfielder’s assists are obvious example of this kind of data. But there are other, less … [Read more...] about AI, Swarm Intelligence, and the Future of Sports Betting | Digital Trends
