Using Cognitive Computing to Visually Analyze Skin Cancer

We discuss how current AI models suffer from a "goldfish memory," as they cannot retain information across different interactions, making them restart from scratch with each new query. This lack of persistent memory hinders long-term user experiences and complex enterprise workflows. The article then introduces MemOS, a new "memory operating system" developed by Chinese researchers, designed to give AI human-like recall by treating memory as a core resource. MemOS utilizes "MemCubes" to store and manage various types of information, enabling continuous learning and personalized responses. Early results show significant improvements in long-term reasoning and efficiency for AI systems using MemOS. Ultimately, the text suggests that incorporating persistent memory is the next major breakthrough in AI, offering benefits like continuous learning, improved compliance, and enhanced personalization for enterprises.

From Goldfish Memory to Elephant Recall: MemOS, Meet AI

Human-like intelligence is increasingly being used in the next generation tools and applications used by HR. Data-driven cognitive systems are offering an alternative to human intuition to select employees and determine their working styles. And, HR leaders are using cognitive systems to support workforce decision making.

The popularity of mobile messaging and productivity platforms. The
growth of the Internet of Things. The proliferation of robots for improving customer service. All are providing organizations with new opportunities to increase customer engagement. Yet delivering a superior customer experience at scale can be a challenge if virtual agents and chatbots are
hand-crafted and hard to maintain. Now there are more effective techniques and ways to build a chat bot, thanks to artificial intelligence and cognitive computing. In this episode of the Watson Innovations podcast, Brian Loveys, Program Director for Watson Emerging Technologies, discusses how the new Watson Conversation chatbot API gives business users and developers alike the ability to create bots driven by the latest advancements in machine learning and natural language understanding. Hear what makes Watson chatbots unique, then find out how easy it can be to build a bot that can be deployed via Facebook Messenger, Slack, a car, or even a physical robot. You’ll even learn how to create a chat bot in minutes, not months!

The #SITN Show (www.sitnshow.com) is a popular accounting & finance podcast listened to in over 150+ countries around the world.

Getting an accounting qualification or finance certification is one of the best things to do to make a difference in our society. It potentially gives us a position from which we can help businesses make better decisions for the good of their customers, suppliers, communities, colleagues and yes owners and other financiers too. We can help increase the opportunity for all. So #SITN was established to leverage the value of mentoring:

1. To elevate the influence, impact, value, and difference we make for our organisations; and
2. To have more fun, rewarding, and meaningful careers in accounting & finance.

In this way we make it more accessible to everyone in our profession, regardless or geography, professional affiliations, status, gender, etc…

The fundamental premise of #SITN is that despite for all the challenges our profession is facing into, the seemingly accelerating rate of change, the new digital technologies and business models, we still have the ability to share with each other practical advice & experiences on what works well and what doesn’t, so that we can all plot better paths forward.

Every Thursday we release a professionally produced podcast with a 30- to 40-minute interview that has been recorded with a guest mentor relevant to the finance & accounting profession. These guest mentors share their real success stories and hard-won lessons which are not found in any textbooks or on LinkedIn profiles. Together with the interviewer they deconstruct their experiences into the key strengths, qualities and practical ‘baby’ steps that others can also follow. On Mondays there is the popular #SITN Monday Memo which is a 5-minute debrief on a topical issue or useful piece of practical advice in accounting & finance.

The show is accessible via: iTunes; Stitcher; Spotify; YouTube; and Soundcloud, with detailed time-stamped show notes, key quotes, resources & ways to connect with guest mentors at www.sitnshow.com.
