PathAI Announces Research Presentations at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) The Liver Meeting

PathAI

PathAI, a leading technology company which combines AI-powered pathology solutions and algorithm deployment expertise with end-to-end central pathology and histology services, today announced it will present research on advances in AI-based approaches through four poster presentations at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases Conference on November 10-14 in Boston, Massachusetts. The posters showcase PathAI’s ongoing commitment to cutting-edge research that advances the understanding and treatment of NASH/MASH using AI-powered digital pathology. Machine learning-assisted fibrosis staging in H&E-stained tissue is comparable to staging with Masson’s Trichrome in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (poster 2070-A) In this research, PathAI demonstrated the utility of its novel, proprietary AI-powered digital pathology product called NASH Explor e TM to detect collagen and fibrosis signals from H&E-stained whole slide images, and enable liver pathologists to accurately stage fibrosis from these H&E images. Furthermore, the co-authors demonstrated that leveraging the AI-derived fibrosis heatmap overlays over H&E whole slide images for fibrosis staging reduced inter-pathologist staging variability relative to staging performed via Masson’s Trichrome. These results motivate further investigation into the potential to reduce the need for Masson’s Trichrome staining in NASH/MASH clinical trial workflows. This work will be presented on Saturday, November 11 from 1:00-2:00 p.m. E.T. AI-based cellular-level characterization of tissue microarchitecture in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (poster 2006-A) NASH Explore TM is an AI-powered digital pathology tool that enables automated detection, visualization, and zonated quantification of 14 categories of tissue regions and over 10 cell types, producing a panel of >1000 quantitative Human-Interpretable histologic Features (HIFs) from H&E whole slide images of liver biopsy tissue. In this collaborative research project, the co-authors demonstrate the biological validity of the quantitative histologic features generated by NASH Explore TM. This work will be presented on Saturday, November 11 from 1:00-2:00 p.m. E.T. Artificial intelligence-based measurement of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (AIM-NASH) improves individual pathologists accuracy and decreases inter-pathologist variability in NASH assessment (poster 2010-A) In this study, Artificial Intelligence-based Measurement of Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (AIM-NASH) algorithm was evaluated for accuracy alone and for use as an assistive tool to pathologists in assessment of liver biopsies in a NASH clinical trial population. This research demonstrates that AIM-NASH may help to standardize histologic scoring for NASH by increasing accuracy for lobular inflammation and ballooning, the features most difficult to score in clinical trial populations. Use of AI-assist AIM-NASH also increased agreement between pathologists for all features. This work will be presented on Saturday, November 11 from 8:00-9:00 a.m. E.T. Artificial intelligence-based measurement of NASH Histology (AIM-NASH) recapitulates primary results from Phase 3 study of resmetirom for treatment of NASH/MASH (Abstract #48735) AIM-NASH TM is an AI-powered digital pathology tool that accurately and reproducibly performs NASH CRN scoring of steatosis, ballooning, lobular inflammation, and fibrosis from whole slide images of H&E- and Masson’s Trichrome-stained liver biopsy tissue. In this collaborative research project, the co-authors demonstrate that all primary histologic endpoints that were met by the central pathologists in a Phase 3 study of resmetirom for treatment of NASH/MASH were also met with statistical significance by AIM-NASH, with clear detection of a dose-response. This adds to the existing body of evidence suggesting that AIM-NASH TM detects true drug effect, while also offering highly repeatable and reproducible histologic scoring. This work will be presented on Monday, November 13 from 1:00-2:00 p.m. E.T. Please visit the PathAI booth, D3100, to learn more and meet the team.

Safely Integrate AI Technology And Improve Efficiency While Mitigating Risk

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga What Is Generative AI? Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology is growing and becoming more prevalent in the business world. The market size and growth of AI are already substantial and projected to continue expanding in the coming years. By 2027, the AI market is expected to reach $407 billion, experiencing significant growth from its estimated current value. One of the reasons for this growth is due to companies turning to AI as a solution for efficiency or to gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. Generative AI involves a subset of AI including machines creating original content, such as images, text, music or even videos. It operates by using complex algorithms to analyze and understand patterns in vast amounts of existing data. Companies across various industries are increasingly embracing generative AI to provide novel solutions and enhance their business processes. For example, in marketing and advertising, generative AI can produce personalized content and recommendations to target specific customer segments. Generative AI can also be used in the entertainment industry to create realistic CGI in movies and games, and can assist in drug recovery and medical image analysis in the healthcare industry. Overall, companies see generative AI as a powerful tool to automate tasks, foster creativity and innovation, and improve overall efficiency and effectiveness in various domains. Not Without Risk: AI Integration With this increased dependence on AI comes the need for companies to be more mindful about how they approach the use of the technology. Most companies do not have the resources to build their proprietary AI technology from the ground up and therefore have to rely on third-party providers. This can create inherent risks related to intellectual property rights, data security, privacy issues, ethics and confidentiality. Here’s a few tips on how companies can protect themselves while mitigating risk in the new world of AI. 1. Check for compliance with data privacy policies Companies must carefully consider the user agreements that they have with any AI tools and how it impacts their data privacy policies. This is especially true for companies that have sensitive information and are legally bound by confidentiality laws. AI breaches are a significant concern in the adoption of AI technology, highlighting the need for caution and protection when integrating AI systems. One example of an AI breach was an incident in March 2023 involving a breach of AI security. A glitch in the source code of OpenAI's ChatGPT AI resulted in unauthorized access to sensitive data. This breach allowed malicious actors to enter the Redis memory database, which is used by OpenAI to store user information, and to view the chat history of users. The breach impacted several active ChatGPT Plus subscribers from March 2023. Their payment details, such as their name, email address, payment address, credit card type, and the last four digits of their credit card number, were compromised. Additionally, it is believed that the account credentials of over 100,000 OpenAI ChatGPT users were also compromised and subsequently sold on the dark web marketplaces between June 2022 and May 2023. OpenAI acknowledged the potential issue where the first message of a newly created conversation could be visible in another user's chat history if both users were active at roughly the same time. As a result, OpenAI had to inform the affected users that their payment information may have been exposed. The breach raised concerns because ChatGPT permits users to store conversations, potentially granting unauthorized access to proprietary information, internal business strategies, personal communications, software code, and other sensitive data. The breach also raised concerns about the potential misuse of AI technology and highlighted the importance of ensuring safeguards are in place to prevent unauthorized access and manipulation of AI systems. 2. Build an airtight risk management process “As more companies embrace the use of AI, it is essential that they have a governance and managed risk management process in place” urges Deborah Nitka, Senior Manager focused on AI consulting at CohnReznick. Risk management frameworks should be leveraged by organizations to identify their risk appetites ahead of introducing AI into their environment. Similarly risk assessment for cybersecurity and privacy should also be undertaken to understand the ongoing potential risk impacts. 3. Regular audits for data bias Furthermore, the AI models used by companies should be regularly audited to minimize the risk of data bias and to guarantee that confidentiality, privacy, and intellectual property concerns are appropriately addressed. While AI can provide several benefits, it is important that companies exercise due diligence and take a risk-based approach to the adoption and integration of AI systems. The primary risks associated with AI adoption include intellectual property issues, confidentiality breaches, as well as privacy concerns. Addressing these issues will help organizations maximize the benefits of AI while minimizing the risks and better ensuring that the technology is used appropriately to deliver positive outcomes. Otherwise, AI technology is not only potentially dangerous but unsustainable for growth. CohnReznick is a leading advisory, assurance and tax firm that helps organizations achieve their goals by optimizing performance, maximizing value and managing risk. It offers a comprehensive range of consulting services encompassing various areas, and over the past few years it has begun consulting on AI integration.

How Diamond Lake Minerals Is Spearheading Digital Asset Accessibility For Traditional Investors

Benzinga

By Austin DeNoce, Benzinga In the era of digital finance, the integration of traditional investments with more dynamic technology is a growing necessity. Diamond Lake Minerals Inc. (OTCMKTS: DLMI) seems to embody this fusion, leveraging decades of traditional business acumen to pave the way for investors into the digital asset and security token market. With a vision that has evolved since its founding in 1954, Diamond Lake Minerals now focuses on the development and support of SEC-registered security tokens under the guidance of CEO Brian J. Esposito and his 20 years of industry experience. In addition, big-name advisors like Anthony Scaramucci, Larry Namer, Andrew Fromm, Brandon Fugal, Michael Malik Sr., Raul Leal, Agnes Budzyn and David Meltzer have joined the company, bringing years of expertise and success. Through blockchain innovations unlocking asset tokenization, Diamond Lake Minerals is shaping the landscape of investment for generations accustomed to the tangibility of assets – but with a modern twist that embraces new technologies. Diamond Lake Minerals: Bridging The Old With The New Diamond Lake Minerals has entered a fascinating transition from mineral exploration to spearheading innovation in digital assets and security tokens. Adhering to SEC regulations and employing state-of-the-art technology, the company aligns traditional investment values with the demands of the digital economy. Leveraging PR Strategy For Web3 Engagement With the help of Espositio Intellectual Enterprises, Diamond Lake Minerals is pursuing a public relations strategy to promote digital assets and educate the public about them, aiming to make these investments more approachable to the general public. The company’s approach is to combine trusted investment traditions with new digital opportunities, thus simplifying entry into the digital asset market for everyday investors. This strategy hopes to build a community around these modern investment options, making them more accessible to a wider range of investors. Tokenization As The Market's New Frontier As articulated by Larry Fink of BlackRock, Inc. (NYSE: BLK), tokenization has the potential to be a transformative force in financial markets. By enabling digital assets to be traded via protocols, tokenization promises immediate settlement and lower transaction costs. The potential of a financial ecosystem built on tokens also offers a future of enhanced interoperability, transparent access and reduced reliance on traditional intermediaries. Blockchain's Role In Democratizing Finance Diamond Lake Minerals is essentially streamlining the entry into digital assets by leveraging the familiarity of stock investments. Recognizing that downloading digital wallets and understanding NFTs can be daunting, they aim to lower these barriers, making it simpler for people to invest in digital assets through partners like INX Digital Co. (OTCM: INXDF). This approach not only broadens accessibility but also paves the way for more widespread investment in blockchain technology, which promises enhanced transparency and efficiency. By aligning with regulatory standards and offering round-the-clock trading, such blockchain applications are setting new benchmarks in the financial industry, inviting a diverse investor base to partake in the future of digital finance. A Conglomerate Approach To Digital Assets Diamond Lake Minerals embraces a conglomerate approach, managing a diverse portfolio under a unified holding company structure intended for lifetime holding similar to Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. (NYSE: BERK). This strategy, discussed in detail on the Bell2Bell Podcast, reflects an intent to deliver consistent earnings and shareholder value. By blending traditional business wisdom with digital asset innovation, Diamond Lake Minerals presents a regulated opportunity for investment in digital spaces. Traditional Meets Digital Diamond Lake Minerals stands as an intriguing avenue for those seeking to invest in digital assets through a platform that respects the essence of traditional investment principles. The popularity of tokenized assets is still to be fully determined, but the company’s initiatives are paving the way for investors to evolve with the digital economy, reinforcing the potential for sustainable growth and value generation in the digital age.

Short The Criminals: Knightscope’s Momentum And Double Digit Growth Could Mean A Safer World

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Click here to learn more about the Knightscope Public Safety Infrastructure Bond. While the world overall has become more peaceful in the past century, the aftermath of the pandemic has seen an increase in violence in certain areas of the country and internationally. For example, California has seen increases in violent crime in the years since the pandemic hit. The state’s violent crime rate is up by 13.5% compared to the pre-COVID rate of 2019. With poverty rates on the rise, crimes – specifically misdemeanors – might continue to rise in coming years; poverty and non-violent crimes have often been linked due to there being fewer legal means to live a decent standard of living for those under the poverty line. At the same time, police violence and racial police discrimination are also on the rise. A recent study showed that U.S. law enforcement killed at least 1,176 people in 2022, making it the deadliest year on record for police violence since 2013 when experts first started tracking the killings nationwide. Additionally, 1 in 5 Black adults, including 3 in 10 Black men, say they have been a victim of police violence. The combination of increased crime rate, as well as the lack of public trust in police to act justly and within reason, can create tension and potentially dangerous environments. An innovative public safety technology company is deploying an interesting alternative to typical policing that can help reduce both crime rate and policing human error. AI and robotics are part of the solution to create safer public spaces while decreasing human error that can come from human police officers. Knightscope (NASDAQ: KSCP) is a technology company ushering in the dawn of Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) and working hard to protect U.S. citizens from crime across the country. The company has over a decade of experience and has shown its solutions to be effective. For example, when one of its units was deployed in Huntington Park, Los Angeles County, there were 46% fewer crime reports overall – and they have recently renewed the contract for the 5th year in a row. Knightscope’s success has garnered national attention, and the company has won corporate contracts with major corporations such as PENN Entertainment (NASDAQ: PENN), PG&E (NYSE: PCG), ABM (NYSE: ABM) and Lowe's (NYSE: LOW). Knightscope continues to make waves in the industry with recent accomplishments and contracts. They have recently announced two new contracts, selling a total of ten new machines. These contracts include a hospital in Colorado and an online retailer in Georgia, both of which have recognized the value of incorporating Knightscope technologies into their security programs. One of Knightscope's newest products, the K1 Hemisphere, is specifically designed for securing areas where the use of autonomous security robots is not necessary. An online retailer that operates multiple warehouses across the United States has signed an agreement for two Hemispheres to enhance employee safety and deter theft and criminal trespassing at their Georgia facility. These machines will also monitor the property's driveway. The retailer has also included the Knightscope+ remote monitoring service to ensure prompt investigation and handling of all alerts, relieving the hospital personnel of this responsibility. The retailer reported being so pleased with the deployment at their Georgia location that they have already requested proposals for additional Hemispheres at their New York and Nevada facilities. Additionally, a California community college has invested over $1.5 billion in updating its facilities, including its safety and security measures. Knightscope was chosen as the preferred vendor to replace the college's outdated emergency phone system with K1 Blue Light Towers. With the latest order, the college has installed a total of 26 Towers and is adding 6 more to enhance its operations. Knightscope has also made significant strides in the hospitality and education industries this month. They have secured contracts with hotels in Portland, Oregon, where their K5 Autonomous Security Robots will patrol the parking areas to ensure the safety of guests, employees, and visitors. The company has also partnered with a pre-K school and another hotel. Most notable, however, Knightscope recently announced a collaboration with the NYPD and MTA in New York City, as their robots will operate in the subway system during late-night hours. Known for their effectiveness and approachability, the K5 robots strike a balance between engagement and respect for privacy. The company is currently offering a unique investment opportunity for interested parties to buy bonds. Knightscope is offering 10% interest, paid in cash annually, on up to a 5-year bond. For example, a $10,000 investment could yield $1,000 of interest in cash payments annually for 5 years. Knightscope's recent achievements demonstrate their commitment to revolutionizing the security industry and promoting greater safety for various sectors. The robotics market was valued at $31.38 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $110.39 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 15% from 2022-2030. Knightscope seems well-positioned to capitalize on this growth and be a potential leader in the U.S. market. Click here to learn more about the Rise of the Robots.

Fintech startup EduFi secures $6.1m led by Zayn VC to launch student loans with Study Now Pay Later

EduFi

Education is a lever of economic growth and social development in any country but poor quality state school provision often drives many families to fee-paying schools. Helping these families manage the financial challenges of school fees, EduFi is today announcing a $6.1m funding round for its Study Now, Pay Later lending platform. It has launched in Pakistan, a country where 40% of students are attending a fee-paying school and spending over $14 billion for their education every year. The pre-seed funding round was led by Zayn VC with participation from Palm Drive Capital, Deem Ventures Ltd, Q Business, Abhi, Adalfi, Techlogix and other angel investors. EduFi is a fintech platform and mobile app that enables students to secure loans for their school fees. EduFi works with liquidity providers and schools to drive successful student loans. The platform is underpinned by a proprietary education sector focused credit scoring model using advanced machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence. Aleena Nadeem, Founder & CEO of EduFi commented: “We conceived and built this product to serve markets that have low credit penetration. Pakistan presented an ideal opportunity to launch because the need is the greatest and we had a first-mover advantage. Firstly, banks don’t offer student loans, instead users take personal loans which are riddled with a high cost of origination owing to physical verification of identity, personal assets and financial health. The absence of credit scoring has restricted credit access to a thin, top tier of customers. We want to expand the credit and student loan opportunity to a much wider audience of students across the country. Secondly, we feel student loans can be a bridge to the country’s two biggest problems - high levels of poverty and low literacy rates - and catalyze economic growth”. The EduFi team has created a full tech stack that provides visibility to liquidity providers on their capital performance and enables schools to capture student performance metrics such as attendance, overdue fees, drop out rates and academic performance of the students. In addition, the EduFi App UX offers an unparalleled pathway for users to quickly and easily access student loans. Combined, this end-to-end tech stack powers the EduFi credit scoring system to disperse student loans within 48 hours of application. The loan journey offers a faster and simpler application process, fast loan disbursement, flexible repayment options and provides more convenience and accessibility than the traditional lenders. EduFi has ended the weeks of manual work to a few minutes in offering and making a student loan. Headquartered in Singapore, EduFi was founded in 2021 by Aleena Nadeem. Having benefited from an MIT education and a successful finance career, her conviction that education opens pathways was the genesis for EduFi. The wider team has over several decades combined experience across banking, education and technology. The EduFi model is based on research and analysis the team conducted on the cultural, social, and economic factors that shape the decisions and behaviors of parents regarding education and finance. Based on these insights, EduFi is designed to be intuitive, transparent, and secure for the users. EduFi’s vision is to be more than a platform but a lifeline and community for aspiring students to unlock their true potential. Through its partnerships with 15 colleges across Pakistan, EduFi is now available to over 200,000 students to pay their school fees. Aleena Nadeem, CEO and founder of EduFi commented: “Education offers hope and can change the lives of people. I am one example of millions out there. EduFi offers this hope and will be a trigger for change in the lives of people as we lift one of the biggest burdens on aspiring families. For example, students in dental or medical schools have to pay upwards of $8,000 upfront which is not sustainable for many in Pakistan. Every student we’ve helped is testament to the ambition, opportunity and empowerment we are striving for at EduFi.” According to a recent Unesco report, families in Pakistan spend 57% of their income on children's education, a sum total of $14 billion annually. Pakistan ranks second across South Asia and Southeast Asia in terms of expenditure on education. This presents a significant opportunity for EduFi to support students on their academic journey. Faisal Aftab, General Partner & Founder at Zayn VC commented: “We are thrilled to support Aleena's vision for EduFi, which aims to provide financing options for families to fund their children's higher education. This is a significant step towards achieving financial inclusion for middle and low-income families. In Pakistan, families spend more than 50% of their income on their children's education, which has become increasingly challenging due to inflationary pressures. EduFi's innovative approach will help alleviate this burden and empower families to invest in their children's future.” About EduFi Headquartered in Singapore, EduFi was founded in 2021 by Aleena Nadeem. It is Pakistan's first student loan platform, helping students finance and plan for their education. The innovative platform streamlines the borrowing process, making it easy for students to apply for loans and access funds quickly.
