Why Visual AI Beats Pixel and DOM Diffs for Web App Testing
Visual AI breaks regions of pixels into rendered elements for comparison purposes, similar to how humans view web pages. As a result, Visual AI can compare any kinds of images on a page, providing a more effective mechanism for automated visual testing when compared to pixel and DOM diffing.

Getting to Know Deep Java Library (DJL)
Amazon has announced DJL, an open source library to develop Deep Learning models in Java. This article details how to get started with the toolkit. The library aims to reduce number of software dependencies by enabling end-end Deep learning development in Java, rather than having to use additional technologies such as Python or R.

Q&A on the Book Rebooting AI
The book Rebooting AI explains why a different approach other than deep learning is needed to unlock the potential of AI. Authors Gary Marcus and Ernest Davis propose that AI programs will have to have a large body of knowledge about the world in general, represented symbolically. Some of the basic elements of that knowledge should be built in.

Predicting Time to Cook, Arrive, and Deliver at Uber Eats
Time predictions are critical to Uber Eats' business as they determine when to dispatch delivery partners as well as ensure customer satisfaction. This article explains how their dispatch system evolved through time predictions powered by machine learning, followed by a deep dive on how to predict food preparation time without ground truth data. It goes over delivery and travel time predictions.

Privacy Attacks on Machine Learning Models
Research has shown that machine learning models can expose personal information present in their training data. This vulnerability exposes sensitive user information to attackers savvy enough to learn how to hack a machine learning API. We'll explore the details of several privacy attacks against machine learning models and provide some potential solutions for this growing security issue.
