AI Maps Regional Brain Age and Alzheimer’s Risk – Neuroscience News

Summary: Researchers trained a deep neural network on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans from nearly 15,000 cognitively healthy individuals aged 19 to 100. Moving beyond traditional single-number brain age metrics, the model generates high-resolution 3D maps displaying local brain age acceleration. Applied to participants with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, the AI identified localized

New AI model generates detailed maps of aging in brain regions

USC researchers have developed an approach that uses artificial intelligence to generate detailed maps that highlight differences in how distinct parts of the brain age. The new model also sheds light on how patterns of brain changes correlate with changes in cognitive function across the lifespan, according to a new USC study published in the

AI is already penetrating the insurance industry

When State Farm Insurance agents rose up earlier this year in a cry against changes to the contracts State Farm offers them as independent contractors, part of the pushback centered on blaming company plans for AI implementation and a deep suspicion among some agents that State Farm has designs on significantly reducing the number of

A Tutorial on GeoAI: Designing Footprint Extraction from NAIP Imagery Using U-Net, Grounding DINO, SAM, and Mask R-CNN

In this tutorial, we design a complete GeoAI workflow for extracting building footprints from high-resolution NAIP aerial imagery. We begin by configuring the geospatial deep learning environment, downloading raster imagery and vector labels, and inspecting their spatial properties before generating georeferenced image chips and segmentation masks. We then train a U-Net model with a ResNet-34

A deep take for detecting deepfakes

Welcome to dystopia – or perhaps better spelled as dystopAI: harassment, humiliation, grooming, sextortion, suicide, and fraud cases exceeding $1.5 billion in 2025. Because humans have an extremely difficult time spotting the difference between authentic images and deepfakes, the crisis is all the more difficult to stop. And it’s massive. As Gov.UK reports, a 2023 investigation

Ai4 2026 Opens Tuesday: Hinton and Ng Face Off on AI’s Existential Stakes

Geoffrey Hinton believes the AI industry may be building something that ends humanity as we know it, and has said so publicly, repeatedly, with increasing specificity. Andrew Ng believes that framing is harmful nonsense, deployed — sometimes deliberately — to slow competitors and capture regulators. On Wednesday, August 5, they will share a stage at
