In early November, Bentley University and Gallup released the results of its 2023 Bentley-Gallup Business and Society Report, which among other topics, focuses a portion of its study on surveying Americans on their opinions of how businesses will use artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the future. When asked "In general, how much do you trust businesses to use artificial intelligence responsibly?", What is particularly telling, is that across education levels, ethnic background, age groups, and political party, the range of those trusting AI a "lot/some" was only between 17% and 28%.

Competitive CounterStrike: Global Offensive player Adam Bahriz will probably kill you in-game. He's so skilled that he landed a contract with Team Envy, an esports organization that's home to some of North America's highest-ranking competitive eSports players. Bahriz also just happens to be deaf and legally blind, with a condition known as HSAN 8. "What do you guys want to do? Just bust out A? I can buy smoke," Bahriz says. His teammates immediately jump in to mock him and shut him down.

You've heard it a million times: Americans don't care about our online privacy. Turns out that's not really true. Anxiety levels over privacy and security are peaking as the relentless collection of online data and the steady drumbeat of data incursions and breaches take a toll. People are worried like never before about eavesdropping by smart home devices such as Google Home and the Amazon Echo or having their microphone tapped to target them with personalized ads and increasingly they want a say over how their personal information gets used, according to a survey released Tuesday to observe Data Privacy Day. More than 8 in 10 American adults expect to have control over how a business handles their data, the survey released by privacy firm DataGrail found.

This resonates with me very personally as a minority founder in the face recognition space. So deeply in fact, that I actually wrote about my thoughts in an October 2016 article titled "Kairos' Commitment to Your Privacy and Facial Recognition Regulations" wherein I acknowledged the impact of the problem, and expressed Kairos' position on the importance of rectification. I felt then, and now, that it is our responsibility as a Face Recognition provider to respond to this research and begin working together as an industry to eliminate disparities. Because when people become distrustful of technology that can positively impact global culture, everyone involved has a duty to pay attention. Joy Buolamwini of the M.I.T. Media Lab has released research [1] on what she calls "the coded gaze", or, algorithmic bias.

COMPUTERS can already hold a massive amount of instantly retrievable data in a manner that puts most humans to shame, but getting them to actually display intelligence is an entirely different challenge. Now a team of researchers from Northwestern University just made a huge stride toward that goal with a computational model that actually outperforms the average American adult in a standard intelligence test. As PhysOrg reports, the witty computer system utilizes an AI platform called CogSketch that gives it the power to solve visual problems just by looking at them, which is something that has traditionally held back many examples of artificial intelligence, reports the New York Post. Being able to visually understand, interpret, and then use that data to come to a solution brings the computer system closer to the functioning of the human brain than many before it, and so the team pitted its creation against a popular standardised test called Raven's Progressive Matrices. The Raven's test (or RPM for short) is composed of 60 multiple-choice questions that measure the taker's ability to reason, using visual puzzles.

If you're reading this in the United States, there's a 50 percent chance that a photo of your face is in at least one database used in police facial-recognition systems. Police departments in nearly half of U.S. states can use facial-recognition software to compare surveillance images with databases of ID photos or mugshots. Some departments only use facial-recognition to confirm the identity of a suspect who's been detained; others continuously analyze footage from surveillance cameras to determine exactly who is walking by at any particular moment. Altogether, more than 117 million American adults are subject to face-scanning systems. These findings were published Tuesday in a report from Georgetown Law's Center for Privacy and Technology.

It's no secret that American law has been building facial recognition databases to aide in its investigations. But a new, comprehensive report on the status of facial recognition as a tool in law enforcement shows the sheer scope and reach of the FBI's database of faces and those of state-level law enforcement agencies: Roughly half of American adults are included in those collections. And that massive assembly of biometric data is accessed with only spotty oversight of its accuracy and how it's used and searched. The 150-page report, released on Tuesday by the Center for Privacy & Technology at the Georgetown University law school, found that law enforcement databases now include the facial recognition information of 117 million Americans, about one in two U.S. adults. It goes on to outline the dangers to privacy, free speech, and protections against unreasonable search and seizure that come from unchecked use of that information.

Young adults of the'Tinder generation' are having less sex than any generation since the 1920s, a study suggests. Experts have assumed that people born in the 1990s - known as'Millennials' - were more promiscuous than those who came before, due to the availability and popularity of dating apps such as Tinder and Gridr. But scientists at Florida Atlantic University have found that people aged 20 to 24 today are more likely to abstain from sex than any generation for 90 years. Some 15 per cent percent of this age group in the US have had no sexual partners since turning 18, the researchers found. Of those born in the 1960s, only 6 per cent had not had sex when they were at the same age.
