A team of Italian scientists led by Graziano Ranocchia, a papyrologist at the University of Pisa, has announced the discovery of the burial site of the famous philosopher Plato in Athens using artificial intelligence techniques.

The exact location of Plato’s burial was calculated by analyzing ancient papyrus discovered in the lost city of Herculaneum near Naples, ‘Arkeonews’ reported.

The papyri were found in the eighteenth century, contain more than 1,800 manuscripts, and the manuscripts are preserved in a library belonging to a luxury villa in Herculaneum.

For the first time, artificial intelligence technology was used to read papyrus, and it helped to recognize the largest percentage of text, and this discovery was made while solving papyrus codes that tell the “history of the academy” of Philodymus wall.

Scientists from the Russian Saratov State Medical University are working on developing new computer programs that rely on artificial intelligence techniques, for use in detecting cancerous metastases in the bones.

According to experts at the university, the new software will help doctors detect cancerous metastases, known as “metastasis,” in people with bone cancer, and will enable them to monitor those metastases, make diagnoses, and choose treatment methods faster and more efficiently.

Experts said that cancerous metastases appear in the bones when infected with various types of cancer, and cause serious complications, including severe pain and bone damage, so it is important to detect them in the early stages.

This year’s Hajj rituals witnessed modern technologies and smart applications that contribute to facilitating and improving the pilgrims’ experience inside the holy sites.

The most prominent techniques that were used:

1. Self-driving air taxi: This technology was integrated to provide an efficient means of transportation within the holy sites, which contributed to reducing traffic congestion and facilitating the movement of pilgrims.

2. Intelligent and medical robots: Robots have been used to provide medical and counseling services. Robots have played a major role in providing fatwas with simultaneous translation in 11 languages, in addition to basic medical services and medical directives.

Scientists from Boston University have developed an artificial intelligence algorithm capable of analyzing speech and identifying early indicators of Alzheimer’s disease, with an accuracy of up to 78.5% in predicting cases of cognitive impairment.

The algorithm was trained using data from transcribed audio recordings of 166 people with mild cognitive impairment, aged between 63 and 97 years.

The research team, which was familiar with individuals whose condition had progressed to Alzheimer’s, used the information to enhance a machine learning model that reveals specific speech patterns associated with the development of the disease.
