Some day, we may no longer be able to tell robots and humans apart. In anticipation of this terrifying future, scientists have created an'Anti AI AI' earpiece that warns humans if an AI is impersonating a human. If the prototype device detects synthesised voice patterns, its thermoelectric plate sends a cold shiver down its user's spine. A team of Australian researchers has developed a wearable device that detects whether speech is human or synthetic. The small device sits behind its user's ear like a Bluetooth headset and uses AI algorithms to warn them if the voice they are hearing is not human The AI software was trained using samples of AI-synthesized voices to learn how to detect them.

Building neural networks has never been more accessible. Keras is a python library that sits on top of Tensorflow and allowed us to build a neural network at a very high level. Rather than just getting something working, we are able to design our network and bring it to life rapidly. Keras essentially does all the work of generating a Tensorflow network, that we can then use to train and subsequently evaluate data. When it comes to actually training the network, Tensorflow still requires decent dedicated hardware to train in any reasonable time frame, and despite having done it several times now, the setup process to get a network training on the GPU remains a challenge.
