John McCarthy first coined the term "Artificial Intelligence" (AI) in 1956 at the Dartmouth Conference along with four other founding colleagues - Marvin Minsky, Oliver Selfridge, Ray Solomonoff, and Trenchard More. The original definition and concept of AI according to John McCarthy is "Every aspect of learning or any other feature of intelligence can in principle be so preciously described that a machine can be made to simulate it. An attempt will be made t find how to make machines and concepts, solve kinds of problems now reserved for humans, and improve themselves." What it simply means is that AI is a term for "simulated intelligence" in machines. The machines are programmed to mimic the cognitive functions of the human [...]

Blockchain technology is called the next stage of the Internet. The blockchain is a global, decentralised online database or distributed ledger that provides a way to record and transfer data that are transparent, safe, auditable, and resistant to outages, that anyone with an internet connection from anywhere in the world can use. Blockchain can make the organisations that use it open, democratic, decentralised, efficient, and secure. The blockchain has social perceptions strongly related to bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Most people view blockchain as something intellectual for tech-savvy cyber criminals for anonymous black-market transactions or people who are anti-government, against the centralisation of financial regulative authorities. The emerging reality is that blockchain has applications that are far beyond cryptos, and as [...]

The idea of 'Automata' originates from the mythologies of many cultures across the globe. Early inventors and engineers from ancient civilisation such as Greek, Chinese, or Ptolemaic Egyptian attempted to develop a self-operating or automated machine resembling the humans and animals. The term 'Robot' comes from the Czech word "Robota" refers to "Forced Work or Labor" was first used to refer the word 'Artificial Automata' in a 1920 play R.U.R (Rossum's Universal Robots) by the Czech interwar writer 'Karl Capek.' In 1928, one of the first 'Humanoid Robots,' invented by W.H.Richards delivered a speech in the annual event of the 'Model Engineers Society' in London. The brief history resonates that 'Robots' are not a new innovation but is a 'Thinking [...]

The Chinese schools enforce 'Smart Uniforms' through tech embedded GPS tracking chips for Children Surveillance. Ten schools in Guizhou and Guangxi have introduced 'Intelligent Uniforms' that will track and monitor the students' whereabouts embedded with GPS tracker to ensure the students don't skip their class and assure parents of their children's attendance, behaviour in real-time and safety. When a child enters the school, classroom, or dormitory, a short video confirms a GPS recording of the data and time stamp, which the parents can view on a connected mobile app. The chip developers Guizhou Guanyu Technology said that Facial recognition technology has been designed to prevent the children from improperly swapping their uniforms. For the truants, skipping classes triggers an alarm [...]
