1. AI-Powered Facial Recognition Surveillance Firm Is Now Under Investigation A facial recognition surveillance firm is now under investigation for potential misuse of the technology. The firm, Clearview AI, has created a powerful facial recognition tool that uses millions of images from social media sites like Facebook and Instagram to identify people. The technology has been used by law enforcement agencies around the world, and its use has raised concerns about privacy and the potential for abuse. The investigation is being conducted by the New York attorney general, who is looking into the company’s compliance with the state’s data privacy laws. 2. Microsoft Unveils AI-Powered “Project Brainwave” Microsoft has unveiled a new artificial intelligence-powered system called “Project Brainwave.” The system is designed to enable real-time AI processing on the company’s Azure cloud platform. The system is designed to be highly efficient and is capable of handling complex deep learning operations in a fraction of the time it would take a traditional CPU. Microsoft plans to use the system to power its Azure Machine Learning and Cognitive Services, and it could potentially be used in a variety of other applications, such as robotics, autonomous vehicles, and medical diagn
#3,182 – Brain Week: Cognify | Greatest. Idea. Ever.
The prison of the future could feature a new technology known as Cognify that would implant AI generated memories into prisoners from the perspective of the victim allowing sentences to be served in days not years. The Mirror explains: "A controversial new idea using AI to manipulate memory would see criminals serve their prison sentences in a…
Why The Future Of Technology Is Always More Human | Digital Tonto
Bill Gates recently wrote that, “The development of AI is as fundamental as the creation of the microprocessor, the personal computer, the Internet, and the mobile phone.” Yet the unspoken problem is that none of those technologies, except for the Internet, had a significant impact on productivity. In fact, since 2005, we seem to be caught in a second productivity paradox. In 2016, while researching my book Mapping Innovation, I noticed that we were entering a new era of innovation, which became the title of the last chapter. That’s largely become true, we are on the precipice of leveraging a number of new technologies including, along with artificial intelligence, things like quantum computing and synthetic biology. Yet as we have seen clearly throughout history, it is ecosystems, not inventions that truly change the world and we are the crucial missing link. It took the redesigning of factories to make electricity impactful and the reorganization of retail to make the automobile a transformational technology. Whether these new technologies have an impact depends more on us and how we put them to use than any details about the technology itself. Using large language models to dump more crap on the Internet, will not get us far, just as our newfound ability to shape the genetic code will not fix our broken healthcare system. The future of technology is always more human and that has never been more true than today. As Todd McLees points out, it is on human skills and human behaviors that we must focus to tackle the challenges ahead.
Novel "ironing" tech gets multiple qualities out of one 3D-printed material
Ordinarily, the 3D printing of multi-colored objects is a relatively complex and inefficient process. That could soon change, however, thanks to a clever new technique in which a temperature-sensitive print media gets "ironed" after being extruded.
AI generates accurate images of streets by listening to their soundtrack
While there are already AI systems that generate sound effects to match silent images of city streets, an experimental new technology does just the opposite. It generates images that match audio recordings of streets, with uncanny accuracy.
