62nd Grammy winners predicted by artificial intelligence

#artificialintelligence

If you've got coin on who'll win at the 62nd annual Grammys this Sunday, predictive tips are available, and it's not insider trading, it's artificial intelligence (AI). Last year, Boston-based data science company DataRobot successfully chose 2019's song of the year, Childish Gambino's "This is America." This year, DataRobot hopes to revisit that win. Some of the top nominees are Lizzo, who has eight nominations, Lil Nas X with six nominations, and Billie Eilish with nominations in the top four categories, according to CBS News.

But, what if making everything better actually makes everything worse? Wall-E syndrome (not a real thing) describes the fear of a future dystopia inhabited by oblivious people who are totally reliant on technology to perform even the simplest of tasks.




Octi is a new AR-powered social network that will let you become friends through your camera

Daily Mail - Science & tech

This week, a new AR-centric social networking app launched, which will let users pull up their friends' profiles by pointing their smartphone camera at them. Called Octi, the app will let people make a personal profile by choosing photos, favorite songs from Spotify, fun links from YouTube, and sticker-like custom messages. Instead, they'll hover around you as a halo of thumbnail-sized icons whenever someone with the app on their phone points their camera at you. Octi uses facial recognition software to identify whether someone you point your camera at has a profile, and will automatically pull it up as an AR overlay if you're already connected as friends. The app will also let you add new friends by pointing your camera at someone and then send them a friend request, so long as they have a profile with Octi.
