The #AI Eye: As the Year Ends - #AI Trends for 2019

Today's Column - The AI Eye- Watching stock news, deal tracker and advancements in artificial intelligence

Global AI Market Projected to Reach $300.26 Billion by 2026 at a CAGR of 38.8%

A report from Research and Markets indicates that the global artificial intelligence market accounted for $15.7 billion USD in 2017 and is projected to reach $300.26 billion USD by 2026. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 38.8 percent in the forecast period. The report lists the growing demand for intelligent virtual assistants, the enhancement of operational efficiency in manufacturing and the implementation of cloud-based apps and services as key driver in the industry. The irregularity of AI algorithms is cited as a potential drawback to the growth of the sector, however.

As the Year Ends Here Are Some Thoughts on AI Trends for 2019

With 2018 drawing to a close, an article from Analytics Vidhya quotes several industry experts on trends they forecast for the coming year in artificial intelligence.
On Natural Language Processing (NLP), the article quotes Sebastian Ruder, a research scientist at text analytics startup AYLIEN. Ruder said:
"Pretrained language model embeddings will become ubiquitous; it will be rare to have a state-of-the-art model that is not using them"
"We'll see pretrained representations that can encode specialized information which is complementary to language model embeddings. We will be able to combine different types of pretrained representations depending on the requirements of the task"
"We'll see more work on multilingual applications and cross-lingual models. In particular, building on cross-lingual word embeddings, we will see the emergence of deep pretrained cross-lingual representations"
On Machine Learning (ML), data scientist for H2O.ai Marios Michailidis forecasts the following trends:
  1. Providing smart visualisations and insights to help describe and understand the data
    2. Finding/building/extracting better features for a given dataset
    3. Building more powerful/smarter predictive models Bridging the gap between black box modelling and productionisation of these models with machine learning interpretability (mli)
    5. Facilitating the productionisation of these models
And from The Enterprisers Project, a similar forecast dispels some of the fear that AI will replace human workers. While conceding that AI implementation will change jobs in no small way, CEO of Awake Security, Rahul Kashyap said:
"AI isn't a silver bullet for closing the skills gap, but it is an important part of the solution to some of our most complex and resource-intensive challenges. I expect to see organizations that embrace this balance between human and machine - either internally or as part of their customer-facing products - achieve the most success with AI in the year ahead."

Investorideas.com - The #Cannabis Market Shifts as Farm Bill is Now Law; Will the U.S. Be the New Driving Force for 2019?

Investorideas.com - The #Cannabis Market Shifts as Farm Bill is Now Law; Will the U.S. Be the New Driving Force for 2019?



The #Cannabis Market Shifts as Farm Bill is Now Law; Will the U.S. Be the New Driving Force for 2019?


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - December 28, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot looking at the growing North American opportunity for the CBD and Hemp market as the 2018 Farm Bill was passed into law.
Canada took the lead in the sector legalizing cannabis in October this year, but all eyes are now on the U.S as the Farm Bill was passed and new States continue to legalize cannabis .The U.S. cannabis market is expected to generate $23.4 billion in sales by 2022, according to Arcview Research
Edibles sales are on track to reach more than $4.1 billion by 2022 according to Arcview Market Research in partnership with BDS Analytics. They also report in 2018, consumer spending on cannabis-based food and drink is projected to reach $1.5 billion in United States and Canada.
So what about 2019? Many companies, both large and small have been taking note of the potential revenue the Farm Bill will generate and have been working diligently to prepare for this moment.
Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY), a global leader in cannabis research and production, plans to be one of the leaders with recent announcements of its letter of intent to purchase hemp-derived CBD isolate from LiveWell Canada , in addition to news of a joint research partnership with Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD) into non-alcoholic, cannabis-infused beverages.
The deal with LiveWell calls for them to supply Tilray with CBD isolate made from hemp cultivated and processed in the U.S. and Canada, with first supply commencing in February 2019. The CBD isolate will be used to process finished CBD cannabis products for distribution by Tilray in Canadian and U.S. markets, subject to applicable federal and local laws and regulations.
Now that the Farm Bill has been signed into law and Canada has opened the doors for edibles in 2019, the path is clear.
AB InBev (NYSE:BUD) is the third alcohol company to partner or invest in a Canadian marijuana producer after Molson Coors Brewing Co. signed a joint venture with Hexo Corp. and, most famously, Constellation Brands Inc. invested in Canopy Growth Corp (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC) to become the biggest shareholder in the company. Tobacco company Altria Group Inc. also announced a $1.8 billion investment in Cronos Group Inc. this month.
Bruce Linton, Chairman & Co-CEO, Canopy Growth Corporation, the world's largest diversified hemp and cannabis company, commented on the passage of the Farm Bill saying, "Canopy Growth commends the United States government for passing the Farm Bill, a transformative piece of legislation that will create jobs and meaningful economic impact across the United States."
"Canopy Growth will participate in the American market now that there is a clear federally-permissible path to the market. Consistent with the spirit of the Farm Bill, Canopy Growth will participate in ways that support American farmers," continued Linton.
One notable difference in the Tilray/AB InBev deal is that unlike the Constellation and Altria deals, both of which include the option to take majority control in the future, Tilray wanted to remain independent. Chief Executive Officer Brendan Kennedy said, "We want to control our own destiny. We haven't sold our company to anyone, we're not looking to get bought or acquired."
Smaller, but just as ambitious, American Premium Water Corporation (OTC:HIPH), a company focused on harnessing the powers of hydrogen and Nano technologies paired with cannabidiol (CBD) to treat health disorders and enhance quality of life, has also been making preparations for the soon to expand CBD sector. The company recently announced that it has entered into a letter of intent with the California based subsidiary of Growpacker, Inc, which offers local and international brands key services, such as manufacturing, co-packing, and distribution for THC & CBD infused products. Growpacker will provide these services for the Company; internal LALPINA CBD branded products as well as manufacturing and co-packing for white label and co-branded products utilizing the Company's proprietary CBD and THC formulations.
Also trying to posture for market share, one company has taken a different approach. EnviroTechnologies International Inc., (OTC:ETII) a company that develops and markets green, natural and organic products for diverse industries recently announced that its subsidiary, CBD Health Co., (www.cbdhealthco.com), that markets and sells high quality and proprietary hemp-based, natural CBD health products, has placed its focus away from the seemingly oversaturated CBD beverage market and instead on hemp-based pet supplement products development. But that is just one of the many products they plan to roll out.
In the news Enviro said, "Current research shows that there are several common CBD benefits for dogs, which are, 1) powerful painkiller (the ECS is involved in managing pain and CBD's pain killing properties are well documented}; 2) effective anticonvulsant (CBD helps control seizures, tremors, tics and spasms); 3) natural anti-inflammatory; 4) anxiety and stress reducer (anxiety in dogs often results in in barking, urination and defecation, chewing and aggression); 5) active antiemetic (reduces nausea and vomiting); and homeostasis promoter (proper functioning of the body).
Continued: "Pet owners are committed to their pet's health well-being and are willing to spend money on pet health products, which make this a multi-billion dollar market, worldwide," said Karren. "We hope to introduce our CBD pet products in 2019 as we believe that our CBD pet products will be superior to those currently offered in this huge industry and will create another profitable channel for our CBD products."
As the markets for CBD and Hemp open up beyond North America, how significant of a player the US will be is yet to be determined, but it is safe to say the changes to industrial hemp laws in the US will have far reaching effects.

Bithumb Acquitted in Hacking Case, Bitmain and Huobi Announce Layoffs, Chinese Scientists Turn Copper Into 'Gold' and Litecoin Partners with UFC

CCN reports that a South Korean court has acquitted crypto exchange Bithumb after a client accused the company of losing thousands of dollars in a hack. 30-year-old Ahn Park claimed that a lack of security measures enabled hackers to steal 400 million won ($355,000 USD) of his funds. Bithumb, however, argued that it was not responsible, as it is not classified as either an electronic financier, a financial company or an electronic financial assistant. The judge appears to have agreed, ruling that Bithumb had carried out its fiduciary duty by sending Park 10 SMS messages notifying him of the transactions that had taken place on his account. CCN argues that this could set a dangerous precedent for future hacking victims on crypto exchanges in South Korea.
The South China Morning Post reports that crypto mining firm Bitmain and crypto exchange giant Huobi are laying off staff. Part of Bitmain's statement said that the company is undergoing:
"...some adjustment to our staff this year... A part of that is having to really focus on things that are core to that mission and not things that are auxiliary. As we move into the new year we will continue to double down on hiring the best talent from a diverse range of backgrounds."
The reasons for layoffs in both companies is believed to be the prolonged crypto bear market putting pressure on firms in the space.
Also reported by the South China Morning Post is that scientists in China have turned copper into ‘gold'. Peer reviews in the journal Science Advances, the researchers have turned cheap copper into a new material "almost identical" to gold. Senior market analyst at social trading platform eToro Mati Greenspan commented on the speculation that this development could lead to crypto replacing gold.
"Some on social media were quick to point out that they've figured out a way to "fork gold" and that this could have implications for bitcoin.
The headline here is rather misleading though. Yes, they found a way to chemically alter copper so that it produces a substance that has similar properties to gold but it is not gold itself.
The idea is that with some fine tuning, copper may be able to step it up a bit in the manufacturing sector. Still, there's little indication of how efficient this would be to do on a mass scale and no matter what, gold retains its status as the premier store of value.
In my mind, it is possible that someone figures out how to reproduce an ounce of gold in a lab, but it's equally possible that someone figures out how to reproduce a bitcoin. Neither scenario seems very likely but both are certainly within the realm of possibility. This is why we diversify."
And Litecoin (LTC) has announced that it has partnered with the UFC to promote UFC 232: JONES vs. GUSTAFFSON 2, will take place this Saturday, December 29 at the Forum in Inglewood, California. An excerpt from the statement from Litecoin reads:
With UFC events like this receiving millions of viewers, having the Litecoin logo displayed on the Octagon's canvas gives LTC global awareness that can spark interest and drive engagement with people from all walks of life who may have never heard of Litecoin or cryptocurrency before.
