Pakistani Maven Develops Dante Artificial Journalist. BaseH is currently focusing on media houses that would be able to produce endless content in little to no time with the help of the same staff. It hopes that the AI writer could be used as a supplementary resource by newspapers, tv channels and blogs as it would be able to free up time for editors to focus on other stories.

Pakistani Maven Develops Dante Artificial Journalist. According to a local television channel, the stories written by Dante were sent to experienced journalists in Pakistan for feedback.

One of them said that he could not tell the difference between a human-written story or a robot-written news story.

BaseH is a small company of IT professionals headquartered in Karachi. To make the AI Content Writer, they also enlisted the expertise of software engineers from the NED University.

AI-powered writing assistance programs are becoming better by the day. Grammarly, a popular grammar checker, uses AI-powered products to help with writing tasks. Microsoft Word’s Editor feature also uses AI to understand nuances in writing styles. It not only flags grammatical errors but also points out the use of unnecessarily complex words and overused terms. It also provides smart suggestions. For example, if it marks a sentence as passive, it will reword the sentence in an active voice.


A leading newspaper in the United States, the Washington Post, also has an in-house automated storytelling technology called heliograf, that uses it to cover all high school football games in the Washington, D.C. area every week.

The company is hoping that their AI writer could be used as an additional resource by newspapers, TV channels and blogs as it would enable editors to save their focus on other stories.

Pakistan is a fertile land for software developers and IT professionals, this innovation in content development will certainly change the landscape of technology in Pakistan.

Intel Movidius Neural Compute Stick AI USB Stick With Myriad 2 Vision Processing Unit Unveiled


Intel Movidius Neural Compute AI USB Update: Intel is expanding its reach into the deep learning field today with the launch of the Neural Compute Stick (NCS), which as developed by its Movidius subsidiary. The Intel Movidius Neural Compute AI USB is aimed at democratizing deep learning and artificial intelligence, with Intel billing it as “the world’s first self-contained AI accelerator in a USB format.”

The Intel Movidius Neural Compute AI USB stick was slated for launch in 2016, but the acquisition by Intel halted proceedings. Now the company is back to normal operations and its USB AI Stick is finally here.

Read: Intel Curie Technology BatSense Smart Bats Introduced in ICC Champions Trophy 2017

The Intel Movidius Neural Compute AI USB is powered by the Myriad 2 vision processing unit (VPU), which promises 100 gigaflops of performance all while operating within a 1-watt power envelope.


Given its low-power requirements, Intel is aiming the Movidius NCS at developers, research engineers and of course the do-it-yourself crowd.

The processor has twelve cores running in parallel and can execute facial recognition and object detection algorithms. It supports neural networks based on the Caffe framework (a neural network library).

However, it’s not clear if it will support Google’s TensorFlow framework or not. A complete list of specifications for the processor can be found here.

The device was delayed due to Intel’s involvement but that helped the company bring down its expected retail price. Initially it was expected to go for around $99, but now it can be bought for just $79.

The Intel Movidius Neural Compute AI USB acts as an AI accelerator that doesn't need to be hooked up to a cloud-based system and makes it easier to add deep learning capabilities to existing computing platforms.

For example, using the device's technology, developers will be able to design an AI-powered drone or add AI into existing apps and devices. According to Intel, the Movidius USB stick could also reduce research and development costs for testing machine learning applications.

Specs-wise, the Movidius Compute Stick consumes just 1 watt of power and provides 100 gigaflops of performance. It runs on a Caffe framework and connects to a PC via USB 3.0. It requires a 64-bit PC running Ubuntu 16.04, with 1GB RAM and 4GB onboard memory to function.

It should be mentioned that the device is definitely not suitable for bigger corporations which require greater processing power. It would be much more efficient for them to simply incorporate their own sensors and hardware in their devices.
