Netflix is looking to get into video games as it seeks to hire an executive in the space

Daily Mail - Science & tech

Netflix might be planning to expand into the $150 billion video game industry, according to a media report. The popular streaming company is'excited to do more with interactive entertainment' beyond its popular offerings'from series to documentaries, film, local language originals and reality TV', a spokesperson told DailyMail.com. 'Members also enjoy engaging more directly with stories they love - through interactive shows like Bandersnatch and You v. Wild, or games based on Stranger Things, La Casa de Papel and To All the Boys. So we're excited to do more with interactive entertainment.' The Information, which first broke the news, reports that the Los Gatos, California-based company has approached veteran executives in the industry to lead its efforts.


How AI Is Breathing Life Into Animation

#artificialintelligence

"Knowing how powerful machine learning has become, it's just a matter of time before it completely takes over the animation industry." In recent years, deep learning has increased the modern scope of animation, making it more accessible and powerful than before. Artificial intelligence has become a shiny new weapon in the creator's arsenal. The advancement of hardware and AI has blurred the lines between virtual and real characters(eg: movies like Alita). Something that could have taken hours to perform by animators is being done by automation in minutes.


The 20 technologies that defined the first 20 years of the 21st Century

The Independent - Tech

The early 2000s were not a good time for technology. After entering the new millennium amid the impotent panic of the Y2K bug, it wasn't long before the Dotcom Bubble was bursting all the hopes of a new internet-based era. Fortunately the recovery was swift and within a few years brand new technologies were emerging that would transform culture, politics and the economy. They have brought with them new ways of connecting, consuming and getting around, while also raising fresh Doomsday concerns. As we enter a new decade of the 21st Century, we've rounded up the best and worst of the technologies that have taken us here, while offering some clue of where we might be going. There was nothing much really new about the iPhone: there had been phones before, there had been computers before, there had been phones combined into computers before. There was also a lot that wasn't good about it: it was slow, its internet connection barely functioned, and it would be two years before it could even take a video.

The AI tool studies how actors move their mouths and swaps the movements out according to the dubbed words in different languages, making it seem like Tom Hanks can speak Japanese or Jack Nicholson is fluent in French. You have to change so many things to try and catch sync. You're changing words #filmmakers and performers have thought about so deeply. They're thrown out to find a different word that fits, but it never really does.


Stance Detection with BERT Embeddings for Credibility Analysis of Information on Social Media

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The evolution of electronic media is a mixed blessing. Due to the easy access, low cost, and faster reach of the information, people search out and devour news from online social networks. In contrast, the increasing acceptance of social media reporting leads to the spread of fake news. This is a minacious problem that causes disputes and endangers societal stability and harmony. Fake news spread has gained attention from researchers due to its vicious nature. proliferation of misinformation in all media, from the internet to cable news, paid advertising and local news outlets, has made it essential for people to identify the misinformation and sort through the facts. Researchers are trying to analyze the credibility of information and curtail false information on such platforms. Credibility is the believability of the piece of information at hand. Analyzing the credibility of fake news is challenging due to the intent of its creation and the polychromatic nature of the news. In this work, we propose a model for detecting fake news. Our method investigates the content of the news at the early stage i.e. when the news is published but is yet to be disseminated through social media. Our work interprets the content with automatic feature extraction and the relevance of the text pieces. In summary, we introduce stance as one of the features along with the content of the article and employ the pre-trained contextualized word embeddings BERT to obtain the state-of-art results for fake news detection. The experiment conducted on the real-world dataset indicates that our model outperforms the previous work and enables fake news detection with an accuracy of 95.32%.


[R] Can an AI learn political theory?

#artificialintelligence

Interesting paper: "Can an AI learn political theory?" "Abstract Alan Turing's 1950 paper, "Computing Machinery and Intelligence," contains much more than its proposal of the "Turing Test." Turing imagined the development of what we today call AI by a process akin to the education of a child. Thus, while Turing anticipated "machine learning," his prescience brings to the foreground the yet unsolved problem of how humans might teach or shape AIs to behave in ways that align with moral standards. Part of the teaching process is likely to entail AIs' absorbing lessons from human writings. Natural language processing tools are one of the ways computer systems extract knowledge from texts.
