PathAI Expands Portfolio of AI-Powered Products, Announcing PathExplore™ IOP and IHC Explore™ Ahead of ASCO 2024

PathAI

PathAI, a global leader in AI-powered pathology, unveiled two novel AI products, PathExplore™ Immuno-Oncology Profiling (IOP) and IHC Explore 1 ™ to empower cancer drug developers and clinical researchers with AI-powered insights. The product pairing provides unprecedented single-cell and spatial resolution of the tumor microenvironment from routine pathology samples to facilitate biomarker discovery and deeper understanding of treatment response for the next generation of cancer therapeutics. The expansion of the Explore™ portfolio comes at a time when AI-pathology is experiencing accelerated large-scale adoption across the diagnostic and biopharma industries. “As cancer rates continue to rise, the demand for advanced precision medicine tools that provide accurate biological insights has never been greater. Our mission to make a difference in patient lives is unwavering, and these new products showcase our commitment to providing researchers with the tools they need to make meaningful advancements in cancer research, treatment and care,” said Andy Beck, PathAI CEO. “We're thrilled to introduce these two groundbreaking products ahead of the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting.” PathExplore IOP: H&E-Based Immune Phenotyping The composition of the tumor immune microenvironment plays a crucial role in characterizing tumors likely to respond to immunotherapy. PathExplore IOP expedites characterization of immune phenotypes by quantifying tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and their spatial distribution using routine hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) samples. With this new product, researchers have the ability to quantify TIL spatial arrangements within tumor core and periphery, and gain insights around the sample’s immune inflamed, desert, or excluded characteristics. PathExplore IOP was designed specifically to quantify patterns of immune infiltration characteristic of a strong immune response, and ultimately improved patient survival. Immune infiltration has been previously shown to be prognostic of positive outcomes, however; standardized and scalable approaches for investigating these phenotypes remained elusive. “PathExplore IOP illustrates the power of AI by visually interrogating the dynamics between cancer cells and immune cells with unparalleled resolution for highly accurate and efficient immune phenotype classification,” said Benjamin Glass, VP of Product & Translational Research. “Researchers can now access insights at scale to better inform biomarker strategies for patient stratification and mechanisms of response and resistance.” PathExplore IOP will be featured in a poster presentation at the upcoming ASCO 2024 meeting, demonstrating the product’s application for stratification of patient response to checkpoint inhibitors in non-small cell lung cancer. IHC Explore™: AI-Powered Biomarker Quantification Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a widely utilized approach for identifying biomarkers unique to certain cancers, informing treatment strategies, measuring prognosis, and patient classification for clinical trials. IHC scoring in the early clinical settings can be time-consuming, subjective, and low-resolution. Especially in early stage biomarker development, defining an optimal scoring system for a novel IHC assay can be complex. IHC Explore™ fills a need for spatial quantification of IHC biomarkers in single-cell resolution with broad target compatibility. IHC Explore provides a panel of standardized and structured features that quantify IHC stain abundance within and around cells of the tumor microenvironment, enabling drug developers to build biomarker scoring strategies from scratch for most IHC stains – and to precisely find those patients most responsive to treatment. PathAI’s partnership with Roche streamlines the translation of these AI insights and scoring strategies into companion diagnostic development. “Drawing on our advanced computational pathology expertise, we're extending the impact of our Explore product suite, which enables us to seamlessly support AI-powered assay development,” said Hisani Madison, VP of Precision Medicine and Medical Device Development. “This advancement is poised to revolutionize biomarker-based drug development for new immunotherapies, antibody drug conjugates, and paving the way for the analysis of the next generation of targeted cancer therapies.” Accepted Abstracts at ASCO 2024 PathAI will be attending and presenting abstracts at the upcoming ASCO event in Chicago, IL. Visit PathAI’s booth in the Innovation Hub (IH18) May 31- June 4, 2024 to meet our team, learn more about AI-powered pathology, and engage with our scientists and collaborators at their respective posters.

OneMeta's AI Transforms Global Communication With Cutting-Edge Translation And Transcription

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Though it has its downsides, in the right hands, Artificial intelligence (AI) can help overcome communication barriers, enhance human interactions and automate complex business processes. Thanks to AI and machine learning, computers and digital devices can recognize, understand and produce text and speech. ChatGPT, the popular AI chatbot developed by OpenAI and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT), is an example of the power of NLP – but it's not the only one. Translate And Transcribe In Seconds OneMeta Inc. (OTC: ONEI), the AI-powered translation and transcription services company headquartered in Bountiful, Utah, is making a name for itself thanks to its advanced technology that translates and transcribes spoken and written words in seconds across multiple languages. Its technology can be used in various settings and across industries, including education, finance, healthcare and legal. Whether attending a live event, participating in an online meeting or talking on the phone, OneMeta's technology offers real-time speech translation and transcription with live captions. Its VerbumCall product enables real-time translation over the phone in more than 150 languages. Meanwhile, VerbumOnSite enables attendees at live events to scan a QR code to access real-time captions in over 150 languages directly on their phones. Microsoft Likes It Then there’s Verbum for Microsoft Teams, which allows multilingual groups to come together in meetings. Each attendee chooses the language they are speaking in and the language they want to see captions and chat in. As each person speaks in their preferred language from a list of 95+ languages, it is translated in near real-time for the rest of the group. In April, OneMeta’s Verbum for Microsoft Teams received Microsoft Co-Sell Ready Status which means its product was added to Microsoft’s Teams store, AppSource Marketplace and the Azure Marketplace. That will likely boost the product’s recognition and drive sales. "Since OnceMeta just achieved Microsoft Co-Sell Ready Status we are seeing significant interest from potential customers who want to apply the Verbum software to their usage of Microsoft Teams in the 140+ languages we offer,” said OneMeta CEO Saul Leal. “We can bring our AI for translation and transcription to all enterprises without compromising privacy, compliance and data security," Alessandro Balzarelli, director at Microsoft Industry Solutions Engineering, concurred, saying the software giant expects to see Verbum’s adoption and growth by enterprises that need multi-language translation and transcription pick up. “Verbum empowers Microsoft Teams users to be more efficient and more inclusive within their own organizations and with their own customers," he said. After researching various niche industries where AI technologies would have a disruptive impact, OneMeta selected NLP technology to pursue because it believes it will have the most measurable impact and economic traction in the months to come. It's also a big business. In 2023, the global natural language processing market was valued at $24.10 billion. By 2032, it is expected to reach $158.04 billion, growing at a CAGR of 23.2% during the forecast period. Breaking Barriers, Landing New Customers OneMeta is also constantly enhancing its technology to be even faster and more seamless. That drive was on display recently when the company announced it reduced the translation and transcription speed of over 150 languages and dialects to less than 200 milliseconds. OneMeta said the breakthrough allows for the near-instantaneous interpretation of spoken content into multiple languages simultaneously, all on the same audio channel. The process is so swift it is virtually unnoticeable to both listeners and readers, surpassing the speed and accuracy of human interpreters and any existing competitive technologies, OneMeta reports. “Unlike traditional human interpreters who need to hear a full sentence before beginning translation, our technology operates on simultaneous near-real-time interpretation. This means audiences can follow conversations in real-time without the delays typically required for translation,” said Leal. “As a result, meetings can proceed at their scheduled pace, potentially reducing the time spent in meetings by up to 70%. This efficiency not only streamlines communication but also represents significant cost savings for our clients in their interpretation and translation budgets." The benefits were enough for OneMeta to land the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City as a new customer. The Archdiocese is using Verbum translation and transcription services to communicate with its multicultural parishioners. OneMeta expects more Archdioceses in many countries to adopt its technology. AI is here to stay, and while there are reasons to be concerned, with the right companies this technology can disrupt and transform industries, break down communication barriers and connect the world wherever people are. OneMeta recognizes the power of AI and has created a stack of AI-driven products that remove the language barriers that keep people apart. With demand for NLP growing, the OneMeta story is one to watch. Featured photo by Markus Spiske on Unsplash.

City-Owned Utility Selects Siyata Mobile’s (NASDAQ: SYTA) Budget-Friendly Mission-Critical PTT Handset To Connect Its Workers And Keep Utilities Running Smoothly

Siyata Mobile Inc.

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga When we think of extreme careers, we may not automatically think of utility work, but we should. Utility fieldwork is one of the most demanding jobs, and it can involve working in extreme conditions or following disasters. When anything goes wrong and utilities – like natural gas, water, sewage or refuse collection – go offline, the public needs utilities on as soon as possible. This is where effective communication is essential for field crews to stay in constant communication and respond to situations with ease. Land Mobile Radios (LMR) have been the traditional communication solution used by field workers for many decades. However, these handheld radios were big, bulky and costly to carry around, making them cumbersome for everyday use. Push To Talk (PTT) radio coverage provided by LMR technology was also often limited to a short distance, usually covering one city or one county, and was prone to no coverage zones, where communication was unreliable. The limitations of LMR technology have been a source of frustration for field workers, dispatchers and their command staff. A few years ago, some industries switched to smartphones to ensure constant communication, but even that has not panned out as expected. Smartphones have apps and capabilities that are not needed and can be a distraction for many workers, and many smartphones are less weather-resistant than other communication devices that are designed to endure extreme conditions. The Public Utilities department from Lancaster, Ohio, recently selected Siyata Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ: SYTA) (“Siyata”), a global developer and vendor of mission-critical Push To Talk (PTT) over Cellular handsets and accessories, as a communications solution. Utility workers there support the city’s natural gas, water, wastewater treatment, stormwater drainage and refuse collection. They will now be using Siyata’s SD7 mission-critical PTT handsets, which will replace previously used two-way radios that operated on their own radio network. This department decided to switch to Siyata's handsets due to the cost savings and operational benefits they offer. Previously, the Public Utilities department would purchase two-way radios for approximately $2000 per unit. After conducting a Total Cost of Ownership analysis, the city concluded that moving to Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) using FirstNet Extended Primary PoC service would be more cost-effective. FirstNet is the perfect network to support communications needs when critical infrastructure needs to be fixed or installed. The Siyata SD7 Handset was deemed the ideal device choice for the city's Public Utilities staff. It is affordable through FirstNet since its price and the PTT service were spread over 24 months, and it is rugged and simple to use – similar to two-way radios – making it a good fit for staff who were already accustomed to using radios. Also, the SD7 handsets work seamlessly with Siyata’s VK7 Vehicle Kits used in their trucks. Charlie Mullett, Traffic Control Supervisor from Lancaster’s Department of Transportation, commented, “We chose the Siyata SD7 unit along with the VK7 Vehicle Kit because we like the versatility of having the high performance PTT Communication as a mobile rugged handheld or as a docked unit in our transportation vehicles. We also chose them because of the FirstNet ready capability. They have worked well for our needs and we have received great customer service and support from the FirstNet Solutions Team.” The SD7 handsets and VK7 Vehicle Kits have already been integrated into the crew's day-to-day operations. With a track record as a pioneer in the industry and with solutions catering to various uses in a wide variety of industries, Siyata has earned its reputation for reliability and versatility.

Halving of BTFS Storage Rewards

BitTorrent

Singapore, May 28, 2024 – To sustain the growth and success of the BitTorrent ecosystem, BTFS is set to implement a halving on the next round of rewards for storage miners on the BTFS network. From 00:00 (UTC) June 25, 2024, the daily rewards for storage miners on the BTFS network will be halved from 15 billion BTT to 7.5 billion BTT. The BitTorrent File System (BTFS) is a decentralized file storage system that utilizes blockchain technology and peer-to-peer transmission. It allows users to store their files across multiple nodes in a distributed manner, enhancing file security and reliability. BTFS also offers rapid file transfer and access, giving users greater convenience in managing and sharing files. By integrating key features of the BitTorrent Chain (BTTC), such as cross-chain connectivity and multichannel payment options, BTFS significantly enhances user experience. Currently, the BTFS network is experiencing rapid growth with over 8 million nodes across the network, including more than 6 million super miners, according to BTFS SCAN. To support the efficient operations of these nodes, BTFS initiated a rewards program and has provided an aggregate of 25 trillion BTT since the launch of BTFS Mainnet in 2019. Every two years, the BTFS rewards halving will occur causing the rewards for all storage miners across the network to be cut in half. (Halving roadmap) Moreover, halving will also prompt miners to improve node performance by optimizing node operation and reducing waste. In addition, an upgrade of the official website for the BTFS technical community and the release of BTFS v3.0 Mainnet will be scheduled in sync with the halving.

Bitcoin's Price Movement Falls Short Of FLOKI's Surge. What's In Store For The Upcoming Meme Coin Raboo?

Total Media

The current 2024 cycle has experienced wild and crazy price rallies from cryptocurrencies of most sectors. Specifically, meme coins, but also AI, social Fi, and utility tokens. What does that mean for meme tokens such as FLOKI and Raboo ($RABT) an AI powered meme coin at the intersection of SocialFi, MemeFi and AI? Bitcoin: Post Halving Fever or Crypto Winter? For the past few months, Bitcoin has surged up to 90% YTD - a strong signal of its bullish momentum. Nonetheless, that's still slower than the crypto market average - with meme coins such as FLOKI rallying over 500%. Historically, post halving season, Bitcoin surges to a parabolic bull run yet in this year, despite almost a month since halving, Bitcoin ranges between $60K -$72K. Is it possible the halving flow has changed? Or is the increase in meme coins disrupting the Bitcoins rhythm. This recent change has investors worried with mixed reactions. Some predict that for the next few weeks/ months the currency could go lower. Alternatively, some claim the bottom is in and it's up only from here. Their jury is that below $60K the mining rates become unsustainable for miners hence can't go below that. The current bearishness could be just a slight pullback. Or it could be a summer winter. After all, most traders agree the summer season doesn't offer good trading opportunities. It's also possible this is due to sucked out liquidity going to meme coins. Currently, traders and investors are aware that strong meme coins such as FLOKI and Dogecoin influence market movements and too much liquidity injected into them is unhealthy for the overall situation. Therefore, while indeed Bitcoin is painfully slow and confusing at the moment, it'll be back and strong when, once again, the meme coins allure fades. Is FLOKI the New Dog of Memes or just a Fad? As one of the major meme coins on the market, FLOKI had a rally of over 500% since the start of the year. This propelled FLOKI into the top 5 largest meme coins and makes it entirely enticing to investors who are always seeking astronomical gains from the crypto trenches. The current world of alt coins shows that the Meme coins sector is one of the fastest growing and most promising for future investors to reap big for small capital. As such, FLOKI is one of the stronger meme coins in this bull cycle and should be a good investment. Better yet, new meme coins such as Raboo offer the best returns on investment. Is this rally good for Raboo? As a new cryptocurrency going mainnet in a bull cycle, $RABT - is a promising token to capture the hearts of crypto investors as it's everything going well for the current market. Raboo is a play to earn token that is at the intersection of meme coins, AI and social Fi. It's also a utility token as users earn cryptocurrency by interacting with the token. The more one is active and scales through levels, the more they earn. As a community oriented platform, Raboo also offers token merchandise and presale buyers also get to receive customized NFTs. The token's smart contracts are secured by SolidProof - a leading Blockchain security company based in Germany. Its base starting price was $0.003 and continues to grow as current presale price is $0.0042. This is a promising token, with experts projecting an increase almost 250% during pre-sale season. Conclusion In the end, there's no cause to worry over Bitcoin, and we can expect positive returns from the crypto markets. Raboo, as a new token that has raised over $1.5M during their presale, is a good investment that could offer over 100x returns especially for presale buyers. Expert analysts predict that it could surge to over 10,000% once the token launches on major exchanges.
