One Of The Hottest Wall Street Trends In 2023 Has Been AI – Trust Stamp Is Leveraging AI To Ensure Security In The New Reality

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Wall Street has become increasingly focused on the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and the role it can play in transforming business and the global economy. While some experts are concerned about the hype and fear that a bubble is forming around the technology, there is growing evidence that more and more companies are embracing AI to drive innovation and growth. Multiple research reports and studies have been released by investment research firms, highlighting the transformative potential of AI and its ability to boost worker productivity and contribute to GDP growth. Carlyle recently called the birth of generative AI a “watershed in human history,” and Wall Street seems quite bullish on the long-term prospects of AI. This is unsurprising considering that AI is becoming increasingly vital to businesses across a range of industries. Many firms are recognizing the need to incorporate AI into their operations and processes to remain competitive and meet the evolving demands of consumers. For example, companies are using AI to improve customer experience, enhance data analysis capabilities and streamline business operations. As AI technology continues to evolve, its role in driving innovation and growth in the business world is likely to become even more significant. Among companies leveraging AI, Trust Stamp (NASDAQ: IDAI) is one that stands out in its field – the company is looking to revolutionize digital security. Trust Stamp is a global provider of AI-powered, privacy-first trust and identity services used across multiple sectors – such as banking and finance, real estate, communications, regulatory compliance and government. Trust Stamp offers a range of innovative services. Their biometric capture and analysis technology enables secure and convenient identity verification, allowing businesses to streamline onboarding processes. By integrating advanced document verification, Trust Stamp helps verify the authenticity of important documents, reducing the risk of fraud. Trust Stamp has recently received a Notice of Allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office. This notice marks a significant milestone for Trust Stamp's AI-powered, tokenized identity products, which are leveraged in its global operations. It follows the announcement of three additional patent applications made by the company in April 2023. The new patent, titled “Systems and processes for lossy biometric representation," further bolsters the company's IP protection for its innovative biometric hashing technology, which is used for subject identity verification. The technology in the patent uses neural network processing and pseudorandom matrix multiplication to generate anonymized vector representations of biometrics that can be verified for identity authentication. The anonymized vector representations are "lossy," meaning that not all the information from the original biometric data is retained, thereby enhancing security when dealing with sensitive biometric data while still allowing for identity verification with a degree of certainty. Dr. Norman Poh, Trust Stamp’s Chief Science Officer, shared, “This latest Notice of Allowance marks an important win and significantly enhances the IP around our AI-based authentication technology. With over 30 patents now issued, allowed, or pending, over the last seven years our team has developed a highly defensible IP position that is now being productized across an ever-growing range of use cases. The IT² represents an evolution of biometric authentication that provides the subject with an exceptional level of security, while greatly enhancing the utility of the original biometric capture. These capabilities have clearly differentiated Trust Stamp in the market, and industry feedback has been extremely positive, resulting in a rapidly growing commercial sales pipeline.” Trust Stamp has integrated the innovative identity verification processes from this patent into its Irreversibly Transformed Identity Token (IT2) technology, a unique privacy-first solution. Using its AI-based IT2, Trust Stamp ensures the benefits of biometric-derived authentication while keeping control of and not sharing the original biometric data. The IT2 cannot be converted back to the original data, keeping the biometric templates secure and offering privacy-protecting methodology to enjoy biometric-based authentication advantages without the risk of storing biometric templates. This patent is a significant step forward for Trust Stamp in the AI-powered identity and trust services landscape. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, Trust Stamp's emphasis on privacy and data protection is aimed at ensuring that users’ personal information is safeguarded at all times. The ability to enhance security while maximizing the benefits of biometric data is a game-changer for financial institutions and companies dealing with sensitive data. Trust Stamp's products and services are set to play a significant role in shaping the future of finance and identity verification in the coming years. This post contains sponsored content.

Mainz Biomed Partners With Liquid Biosciences in Exclusive Relationship To Harness The Power Of Artificial Intelligence (AI) To Develop Next-generation Colorectal Screening Test

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in biotechnology is rapidly gaining momentum, revolutionizing the field of life sciences. AI technologies, such as machine learning and deep learning algorithms, have the potential to analyze complex biological data more efficiently and accurately than ever before. AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of genomic, proteomic, and clinical data, leading to new insights and discoveries that were previously inaccessible. This integration of AI and biotech holds great promise for enhancing scientific understanding, improving healthcare outcomes, and ultimately transforming the way we approach biotechnological advancements. Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ), a company that specializes in developing molecular genetic diagnostic solutions for life-threatening conditions, has created ColoAlert®, an innovative product that addresses the need for easier and more accessible cancer screenings for quick detection and treatment of colorectal cancer. This non-invasive and user-friendly test aims to make colorectal cancer screening fast, simple and precise. The company has recently formed a partnership with Liquid Biosciences, aiming to leverage the capabilities of AI in developing an advanced colorectal screening test. Its partnership with Liquid Biosciences will help expand the company’s existing cutting-edge products. Recently, Mainz Biomed conducted a multi-center international clinical trial in Germany and Norway to evaluate the effectiveness of incorporating mRNA biomarkers into ColoAlert®, their leading product for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. The study yielded impressive findings, demonstrating a high sensitivity of 94.4% and specificity of 97.5% for detecting CRC. Additionally, the screening test showed a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 95.2% in detecting precursor lesions, including advanced adenomas that may develop into CRC.

As such, we are very pleased to have the opportunity to play an integral role in helping it develop the next generation of its pioneering products.” This partnership with Liquid Biosciences comes after a string of previous partnerships with other industry leaders like Zöller-Kipper and Ärztliches Labor Dr. Buhlmann. Through the partnership between Mainz Biomed and German company, Zöller-Kipper, accessibility to ColoAlert® test has been greatly enhanced for both patients and healthcare providers. All of Zöller-Kipper’s over 2,500 employees can now easily request the test through Mainz Biomed's online portal and have it delivered to their doorstep. Once the sample is received and processed, the employee can access their confidential test results through the portal. The portal also provides an explanation of the results to ensure that the employee understands them and if the employee has given consent for their physician to be notified, the doctor can directly follow up with them based on the test results. With colorectal cancer being the third most prevalent form of cancer and a troubling trend of this cancer affecting more and more young people, the need for biotech companies to innovate detection and treatment could not be understated.

3D Printed Steaks Could Be The Next Emerging Tech ESG Investors Should Be Watching – Here’s Why

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga As the world’s growing population brings with it a growing demand for meat, the environmental pressures of meat consumption are coming into sharper focus. To meet that demand while decreasing the environmental impact the industry has, companies like Steakholder Foods Ltd (NASDAQ: STKH) are developing new technology for lab-grown meat. Here’s what investors should know about the emergence of food printing. Meat Accounts For About A Third Of The Agricultural Industry’s Emissions And Deforestation Problem If the global population cut its meat consumption in half, greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural industry would drop by 31%. At the same time, the acres of land used to feed and raise livestock would decrease so much that it would almost stop the net loss of forests. If just half of that newly freed-up land were also restored through tree planting to create forest land, the amount of emissions captured by those new forests would double that 31% drop in emissions. Despite that significant potential to reduce the pressure on the environment and limited natural resources, meat consumption is actually expected to rise in the future. Instead of falling by half, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates global meat consumption will rise by 14% by 2030. Cultivated Meat Would Eliminate The Need For Land-Intensive Livestock Raising Cultivated meat refers to meat made from animal cells grown in a lab. Instead of raising and then slaughtering a cow, researchers have found a way to simply cultivate cow cells in a lab. With this technology, there would be no need to raise livestock, freeing up the acres of land devoted to keeping that livestock as well as the acres of crops dedicated to feeding them. Lab-grown meat bypasses the slaughterhouse and also the waste that comes with it. The process of draining the blood, removing the offal, tendons and other parts of the animal that people don’t eat results in about 60% of each animal slaughtered being either thrown away or recycled. By growing just the cells needed to recreate the parts of the animal that people actually eat, cultivated meat can also solve that glaring waste problem in the meat industry. The Emerging Lab-Grown Meat Industry Is Making Headway, But Challenges Remain The emerging industry is already starting to see some significant breakthroughs with this emerging tech. In 2022, the USDA approved California-based Upside Food’s lab-grown chicken for sale in the United States, marking the first approval of its kind in the country. This year, the agency followed that up with another approval for Good Meat, which also makes a cultivated chicken product. But some key challenges remain before cultivated meat can fully replace its traditional counterpart – namely, cost and texture. The technology is still new, and the cultured meat it produces is still costly to make. Meanwhile, actually shaping a cluster of cells into, say, a steak or pork chop is tricky. Hybrid meat is one way around the affordability challenge in the cultivated meat industry. It uses readily available, more affordable plant-based materials as the base with just enough lab-grown meat cells added to provide that real meat flavor. Until the technology to produce 100% lab-grown meat at scale becomes more affordable, these hybrid meat products offer a more cost-effective approach to developing these products at commercial scale. Steakholder Foods Reports Its Patented 3D Printing Technology Recreates The Taste And Texture Of Real Meat While they address the issue of affordability, the challenge of recreating the unique texture of actual cuts of meat remains challenging. That’s what really sets Steakholder Foods and its patented 3D printer apart. To create a more realistic texture, the company developed a unique 3D printer along with a hybrid meat “ink” that manufacturers can use to print ready-to-cook steaks, fish fillets and other structured cultivated meat products that deliver both the taste and texture of real meat. As the technology continues to progress, Stakeholder Foods will have the ability to seamlessly increase the percentage of lab-grown meat cells in the final product as those cells become more affordable to produce at scale. The B2B-Focused Company Is Making Cultivated Meat Production Attainable And Scalable For More Producers The B2B company intends to sell its 3D bio-printers to manufacturers who can then continue to order batches of hybrid meat ink as needed. The scalable technology allows manufacturers to produce several tons of 3D-printed meat products per month. Steakholder Foods signed its first multimillion-dollar agreement this summer, which will see a large-scale production facility built in the Persian Gulf region. Right now, the Israel-based company offers fish ink and its recently launched beef ink, but other species can be expected soon. Steakholder Foods became the first Nasdaq-listed cultivated meat company in 2021 and is still one of the few pure-play options for investors looking for exposure to the emerging sector. While major companies like Tyson Foods (NYSE: TSN) and JBS S.A. (OTCQX: JBSAY) are starting to invest in the new technology, Steakholder Foods is one of the few publicly-traded companies exclusively focused on developing meat printing technology.
