What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the field of computer science that studies how to create machines and software that can perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. AI can be divided into two main branches: narrow AI and general AI.

Narrow AI refers to systems that can perform specific tasks, such as face recognition, speech recognition, or chess playing. General AI refers to systems that can exhibit human-like intelligence across a wide range of domains, such as reasoning, learning, planning, and creativity. General AI is still a distant goal for researchers, while narrow AI is already widely used in many applications and industries.

Pakistani surgeon sets world record in robotic surgery for women

A Pakistani surgeon Dr Amer Raza is leading the innovative Da Vinci surgical robotic surgery for the treatment of endometriosis, which affects pregnancy for women of all ages.

Dr Raza has led a team of surgeons to perform the maximum number of complex gynaecology operations in two days at London’s Chelsea and Westminster Hospital — setting a new record of not only using an innovative robotic technology but also doing 12 major operations in a day.

Amer Raza, a graduate of Nishtar Medical College, Multan, has not only performed the operations but also set a world record of doing 12 major operations in a day. 

Robotic surgery is the most modern type of keyhole surgery in which a surgeon operates in the patient’s abdomen through instruments controlled from a distance.

Dr Raza is a renowned expert in endometriosis, in which women suffer from pelvic pains and period pains which have a major adverse impact on conceiving. The condition not only affects the pelvic organs but also the bowel, bladder and nerves. The disease affects women from young age to old age and tens of millions of women across the world suffer from this condition.

He graduated from Nishtar Medical College, Multan, and has been trained as a laparoscopic surgeon. He is now one of the world’s leading surgeons in endometriosis and complex pelvic disease.

He is also the director of the world-class International Centre of Endometriosis Cromwell Hospital, London, and is leading a big team of multi-speciality surgeons. Dr Raza is also the Founder and Director of CCMIG Chelsea Centre of minimal access surgery, which organises national and international laparoscopic courses across the world. He travels to the Middle East, Pakistan, Africa and Europe to teach laparoscopic gynaecology courses.

Whatsapp Introduces Edit Message Feature in an updated version

The Meta-owned instant messaging platform WhatsApp has introduced a new feature that allows you to edit messages you have already sent.

To make changes, simply long-press the desired message and choose the Edit option from the menu. Text editing is only available within the first 15 minutes after sending the message.

When you edit a sent message, it will be labelled as “Edited” when viewed by others, ensuring transparency and preventing any secretive actions. However, the edit history itself will not be visible.

It is important to mention that worth mentioning that all of these features maintain the end-to-end encryption of WhatsApp. The new editing feature is currently being rolled out globally to WhatsApp users and is expected to be fully available “in the coming weeks”.

Earlier, WhatsApp announced that they are currently working on a new feature that will enable users to create their stickers within the app itself. While still in the development phase, the feature promises to provide a more fun and personalized experience for users.

Users will be able to select an image from their gallery and utilize various editing tools, including background removal, to perfect their stickers.

While the sticker creation tool will be available on both WhatsApp Web and WhatsApp Desktop, iOS users can expect additional functionalities when the feature becomes accessible to them.
