Know Everything About Artificial Intelligence
AI involves machine learning, deep learning and many other programmable capabilities.
Let’s know all about the AI.
What is AI:
AI is intelligence exhibited by machines AI systems seek to process or respond to data in human-like ways.
AI can be seen at:
1. Marketing- Here AI analyze buyer’s behavior and provide best products & deals to them.
2. Predictive systems- These AI are made to look at statistical data and form valuable conclusions.
3. Editing Softwares- Here AIs suggest the ways that can be used to make pictures and texts more attractive.
4. Research- Research AI search through complex documents and studies for specific information at the speed higher than Google’s search engine.
How safe are they:
• Artificial intelligence right now don’t have ability to make truly independent decisions
• They can’t do anything beyond the instructions provided to them
• But, the predictions through AI can be inaccurate & that can be dangerous
Future of AI:
• We can see the rapid adoption of AI tricks in every field of tech.
• Once quantum computers become more viable, AIs will have access to unprecedented processing power and human-like AIs will become more viable.
• There are various apps & softwares that can be improved with the help of AI
A general futurist look at how linear, exponential and discontinuous growth is shaping the future of technology and what may be expected in key areas such as hardware, software, semiconductors, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, biotechnology, life extension and virtual worlds.

Business Model Innovation: From Understanding the Process to Tracking the ChangeCopenhagen Business School
Slides from my PhD defense at Aarhus BSS, Aarhus University, presented on 6 January 2017.
The dissertation aims to inform and improve the management’s strategizing activities, when the intended business development initiatives may augment the existing business model:
- Which trajectories of business model change can management consider taking?
- How can changes in the (other firm’s) business model be tracked via public data sources?
- How can the process of business model innovation be conceptualized? What are the major factors inhibiting and facilitating the process?
- How can management track the progress of their own firm’s evolution towards a new business model?
Florence nightingale’s environment theoryShrooti Shah
The foundation of Nightingale’s theory is the environment- all the external conditions and forces that influence the life and development of an organism.
According to her, external influences and conditions can prevent, suppress, or contribute to disease or death.
Her goal was to help the patient retain his own vitality by meeting his basic needs through control of the environment.

Introductory presentation to Saint Lucia stakeholders for consultation on developing innovation strategy and action plan for National Trade Strategy on behalf of International Trade Centre (ITC)
Innovation involves thinking differently, creatively and insightfully to create solutions that have an impact in terms of social and economic value.
National Innovation Council (NInC) was setup under the Chairmanship of Mr. Sam Pitroda, Adviser to the PM on PIII to discuss, to analyse and help implement strategies for inclusive innovation in India and prepare a Roadmap for Innovation 2010-2020. NInC would be the first step in creating a crosscutting system which will provide mutually reinforcing policies, recommendations and methodologies to implement and boost innovation performance in the country.
This book highlights some of the key initiatives that NInC has taken in last four years to promote innovations in the country.
The National Innovation Council (NInC) and the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) jointly announced the creation of the India Inclusive Innovation Fund (IIIF). IIIF, which has been approved by the Union Cabinet, was conceived and architected by the NInC as a unique concept which seeks to combine innovation and the dynamism of enterprise to solve the problems of citizens at the base of the economic pyramid in India.
In order to foster a grass-root bottoms-up approach to innovation and development and to arrive at solutions for local problems, which are sustainable and scalable, there is a need for seeking out and campaigning for ideas that have the potential to solve challenges. Accordingly, based on the innovative ideas received from the local people regarding developmental projects, a ‘One MP – One Idea’ Competition may be held in each Lok Sabha constituency annually to select the three best innovations for cash awards and certificate of appreciation for next five best innovations.
OGPL is a joint product from India and United States to promote transparency and greater citizen engagement by making more government data, documents, tools and processes publicly available.
The National Innovation Council (NInC), Government of India has launched a Global Innovation Roundtable (GIR) as a policy dialogue to outline a new paradigm of inclusive innovation.
Creation of an eco-system for design innovation and education in the country through Design Innovation Centres (DICs), Open Design School (ODS) and National Design Innovation Network (NDIN)
A key proposal emerging from National Innovation Council deliberations: is the proposal to establish the India Inclusive Innovation Fund. This Council effort seeks to establish a Fund that will drive and catalyse the creation of an ecosystem of enterprise, entrepreneurship, and venture capital, targeted at innovative solutions for the bottom of the pyramid.
The first challenge launched by the National Innovation Council was a call for proposals launched in October 2011 to reduce the drudgery of the working class population.
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
