  • China's Artificial Intelligence Ecosystem
    Ann Caracristi Institute For Intelligence Research RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP RESEARCH MONOGRAPH China’s Artificial Intelligence Ecosystem Maj Richard Uber, PhD, USAF National Intelligence University China’s Artificial Intelligence Ecosystem Maj Richard Uber, PhD, USAF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE UNIVERSITY ISBN: 978-1-932946-08-6 Information Cutoff Date: December 31, 2020 Disclaimer: The views expressed in this research monograph are those of the author and do not reflect the official policy or position of the United States Air Force, Department of Defense, or U.S. Government. Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of many emerging technologies at the heart of economic and military competition between the United States and the People’s Republic of China. However, the structural dif- ferences between the two nations create a barrier to understanding the strengths and weaknesses of one another’s systems. This NIU Research Monograph provides an overview of China’s AI industry ecosystem from policies to execution, paying specific attention to key government ministries, private companies, and professional associations that drive industrial growth. After an introduction to the major features of the industry, a summary of AI industry assessments compares the U.S. and Chinese AI ecosystems directly and highlights key strengths and weaknesses inherent in the Chinese model. Research Questions The aim of this work is to take a broad look at China’s AI ecosystem. Driving the investigation are the following research questions: 1. How is China challenging U.S. primacy in AI, what are China’s prospects for success, and what are the implications for the United States? 2. How do Beijing’s AI growth strategy and AI ecosystem components position China to achieve its AI ambitions to lead the world in AI by 2030? 3.

  • It's Time for Some Alexercise
    It’s time for some Alexercise A comparison between reflection capabilities of activity trackers and intelligent personal assistants by T.I. Molenaar to obtain the degree of Master of Science at the Delft University of Technology, to be defended publicly on Wednesday January 9, 2019 at 11:00 AM. Student number: 4237005 Thesis committee: Dr. C. Hauff, TU Delft, supervisor Dr. A. E. Zaidman, TU Delft Prof. Dr. M. Specht, TU Delft This thesis is confidential and cannot be made public until January 9, 2019. An electronic version of this thesis is available at https://repository.tudelft.nl/. Abstract Recently published health reports from governments of western countries and the World Health Organization (WHO) provide insights on health benefits of being physically active. Performing physical activity of moder- ate intensity is, amongst others, associated with a smaller risk on symptoms of depression, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Despite this information being widely available on the world wide web, one particular form of physical inactivity is still incorporated in the lives of many people: sedentary behaviour. An environ- ment that is especially seductive for this type of physical inactivity is the workplace. Stress, depression, anx- iety, and heart diseases are found to be work-related diseases, possibly as a result from sedentary behaviour. As a means of reflecting on physical activity, one could acquire an activity tracker such as FitBit or use one of the many available health monitoring mobile applications. However, it was found that activity trackers may not be very effective for stimulating a physically active lifestyle. In contrast, an emerging phenomenon may be able to do so: the intelligent personal assistant (IPA).
