Warning you that this report is not suitable listening while you eat.  Assuming you’re prepared, let me tell you that engineers at Georgia Tech have developed an artificial intelligence-based “diarrhea detector.”  This device can be attached to public toilets and networked to feed data to public health officials.  When enough users of such facilities experience violently rapid bowel movements, there is an early warning that a dangerous and potentially deadly infectious gastrointestinal disease such as cholera may be spreading.  This type of AI detector uses sound spectral analysis and is also capable of detecting urination and yes flatulence or farts.
