Researchers have found that traits such as extraversion, openness and neuroticism can indicate what type of plonk you prefer. They used AI to determine personality traits based on the reviews, and compared it to the strength of wine people were buying. Analysis revealed that people who score high in agreeableness and openness tend to go for wines with a higher alcohol content. These are usually perceived as being of higher quality and have a richer body and taste - for example a Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Port or Sherry.

While the ImageNet dataset has been driving computer vision research over the past decade, significant label noise and ambiguity have made top-1 accuracy an insufficient measure of further progress.


I Tried RentAHuman, Where AI Agents Hired Me to Hype Their AI Startups

WIRED

Rather than offering a revolutionary new approach to gig work, RentAHuman is filled with bots that just want me to be another cog in the AI hype machine. I'm not above doing some gig work to make ends meet. In my life, I've worked snack food pop-ups in a grocery store, ran the cash register for random merch booths, and even hawked my own plasma at $35 per vial. So, when I saw RentAHuman, a new site where AI agents hire humans to perform physical work in the real world on behalf of the virtual bots, I was eager to see how these AI overlords would compare to my past experiences with the gig economy. Launched in early February, RentAHuman was developed by software engineer Alexander Liteplo and his cofounder, Patricia Tani.

Is Good Taste a Trap?

The New Yorker

Is Good Taste a Trap? The judgments we use to elevate our lives can also hem them in. In Belle Burden's memoir, " Strangers," she describes the end of her marriage. It happened suddenly: until learning of her husband's infidelity, through a voice mail from a stranger, she had no idea anything was wrong. Burden and her husband shared an apartment in Tribeca and a house on Martha's Vineyard.


'Orwellian': Sainsbury's staff using facial recognition tech eject innocent shopper

The Guardian

Sainsbury's said: 'This was not an issue with the facial recognition technology in use but a case of the wrong person being approached in store.' Sainsbury's said: 'This was not an issue with the facial recognition technology in use but a case of the wrong person being approached in store.' Man misidentified by London supermarket using Facewatch system says: 'I shouldn't have to prove I am not a criminal' A man was ordered to leave a supermarket in London after staff misidentified him using controversial new facial recognition technology. Warren Rajah was told to abandon his shopping and leave the local store he has been using for a number of years after an "Orwellian" error in a Sainsbury's in Elephant and Castle, London. He said supermarket staff were unable to explain why he was being told to leave, and would only direct him to a QR code leading to the website of the firm Facewatch, which the retailer has hired to run facial recognition in some of its stores. He said when he contacted Facewatch, he was told to send in a picture of himself and a photograph of his passport before the firm confirmed it had no record of him on its database. "One of the reasons I was angry was because I shouldn't have to prove I am innocent," Rajah said.


Starbucks bets on robots to brew a turnaround in customers

BBC News

Americans pulling into a Starbucks drive thru might think they are being served by a friendly staff member. But at some locations, the voice listening to the order is actually an AI robot. Behind the counter inside the store, baristas can lean on a virtual personal assistant to recall recipes or manage schedules. In the back of the shop, a scanning tool has taken on the painstaking process of counting the inventory, relieving staff of one of retail's most tedious chores, in a bid to fix the out-of-stock gaps that have frustrated the firm. The new technology is part of the hundreds of millions of dollars the 55-year-old coffee giant has been investing as it tries to win back customers after several years of struggling sales.
