    AI-Powered Killer Drones, Mermaid-core, and Adobe’s Firefly Images - Latest Tech News, June 2 - 2023

    Tech news 👉 If I could go back in time and contact my 19 year old self, I’d advise her to buy Nvidia stock. Watch this Nvidia demo and imagine actually speaking to AI game characters. 👉 The Turing Test, originally called the imitation game by Alan Turing in 1950, is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behaviour equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. In a recent Turing Test, people were able to correctly identify a human 73% of the time, but only 60% of the time when talking to a bot. This suggests that AI chatbots are still not quite indistinguishable from humans, but they are getting closer. Fresh AI 👉 Adobe released a Photoshop feature called "Generative Fill, " enabling content creators to expand an image beyond its initial borders. In a nutshell, the tool is part of Adobe's image-synthesis model Firefly. Users can extend the edges of a picture in any direction, and Generative Fill will produce cohesive content with or without contextual prompts. 👉 OpenAI’s official ChatGPT app is now finally available in Belgium (and the Netherlands) 👉 Reimagine by MyHeritage: Scan, fix, and animate old photos, from your phone. 👉 Gen-2 - AI generated video with dogs. Creepypasta! From my blog 👉 Bans On AI Powered Drones Should Get Priority 👉 A.I.'s Dilemma: Balancing Benefits and Risks for Humanity's Future Weird and Wonderful 👉 Discord's captcha is asking users to identify a 'Yoko,' a snail-like object that does not exist and was created by AI. 👉 New website Favoree is being hailed as "the Rotten Tomatoes of YouTube," where users can rate and review YouTube channels. It’s based on a browser plugin, so it needs more users for it to get relevant. But I like the idea! 👉 The object is to guess where the photo was taken on a map and when, on a timeline from 1900–2023. #Tiktok #samaltman #legal #midjourney #technologynews #AIlaw #Lawyers #clowillaerts #philverheyen #socialrunners #live #google #bing #privacy #tiktok #rAIegulation #wimwijsmans ---- 🎧 𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝘀 ▫️ Youtube • https://youtu.be/qhQCet2EVAM ---- 🙋‍♀️ 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝗼 𝙏𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 • https://twitter.com/bnox 𝙉𝙚𝙬𝙨𝙡𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 • www.clowillaerts.substack.com 🙋‍♂️ 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝗣𝗵𝗶𝗹 𝙄𝙣𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙢 • https://www.instagram.com/philverheyen/ 𝙏𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 • https://twitter.com/PhilyVee_ 𝙇𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙣 • https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-verheyen-83917363 🤳 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀 Book a content creator to help with your digital marketing.
