🧠 DeepMind’s AI Can Control Superheated Plasma Inside a Fusion Reactor
In collaboration with the Swiss Plasma Center at EPFL—a university in Lausanne, Switzerland—the UK-based AI firm has now trained a deep reinforcement learning algorithm to control the superheated soup of matter inside a nuclear fusion reactor. The breakthrough, published in the journal Nature, could help physicists better understand how fusion works, and potentially speed up the arrival of an unlimited source of clean energy.
🚀 Noise cancelation gone too far!
Getting rid of the side-view mirrors is an aggressive but effective solution to the problem of decreasing its induced aeroacoustics sound, especially more prominent in our vehicle fleet becoming quieter through electrification…
Learn about side mirrors aeroacoustics CFD predictions in this great Siemens article.

📚 Book of the Week
AI and Machine Learning for Coders: A Programmer's Guide to Artificial Intelligence
You'll understand how to implement the most common scenarios in machine learning, such as computer vision, natural language processing (NLP), and sequence modeling for web, mobile, cloud, and embedded runtimes. Most books on machine learning begin with a daunting amount of advanced math. This guide is built on practical lessons that let you work directly with the code.
You'll learn:
How to build models with TensorFlow using skills that employers desire
The basics of machine learning by working with code samples
How to implement computer vision, including feature detection in images
How to use NLP to tokenize and sequence words and sentences
Methods for embedding models in Android and iOS
How to serve models over the web and in the cloud with TensorFlow Serving
