New AI can make your favourite actors speak fluently in foreign languages
We have all watched foreign films that have been dubbed and have laughed at how silly the actors look with the voice-over not matching their lips. Now, new deepfake technology has come to the surface that can dub films almost as if they were original. According to Arstechnica, the new technology is based on artificial intelligence and it could revolutionise how films will be translated into foreign languages. The tech is developed by a UK company called Flawless co-founded by director Scott Mann who says he was fed up with poor dubbing. "I remember just being devastated," he told Arstechnica.

Ars Technicast special edition, part 3: Putting AI to work defending your stuff
In the third and final installation of our podcast miniseries on artificial intelligence, produced in association with Darktrace, we delve into the realm of AI fighting AI--or what researchers refer to as "adversarial AI." Adversarial artificial intelligence can take many forms--as a tool for hacking through AI-powered security of other systems, for example, or deceiving another algorithm with input that causes a specific, fake result. Ars editors Sean Gallagher and Lee Hutchinson spoke with the leader of the winning team from the 2016 Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Cyber Grand Challenge, ForAllSecure CEO David Brumley, about advancements in AI-driven hacking. Lujo Bauer, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the Institute for Software Research at Carnegie Mellon, joined Lee and Sean to talk about his research into ways to use AI to defeat technologies such as facial recognition. And Max Heinemeyer, director of threat hunting at Darktrace, discussed research already being done into how to stop AI-driven attacks on computer networks.
Ars Technicast special edition, part 1: Machine learning assimilates athletics
Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, and other technologies are changing the world in which we live and work in some subtle, and not-so-subtle, ways. And we're diving into just a few of them in this podcast series produced in association with Darktrace. One of the most visible places where analytics based on AI and machine learning are working their way into our popular awareness is in the realm of professional sports. From the virtual lines drawn on a football field to show the line of scrimmage and first-down markers to Major League Baseball stat casts predicting the probability of successful base stealing, AI has become part of how we consume sports. In this episode, Ars editors Sean Gallagher and Lee Hutchinson talk with Tim Wade, vice president at NTT's Advanced Technology Group, about how NTT provides AI-based analytics for the Tour de France, the iconic 21-stage cycling competition.

SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket will embark on its 50th launch on Tuesday
As if SpaceX's long-awaited launch of the Falcon Heavy megarocket last month wasn't historic enough, now Elon Musk's aerospace firm is set to hit another major milestone. On Tuesday, a recycled Falcon 9 rocket will blast off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, with the launch window opening at 12:33pm (EST). If all goes according to plan, it will be the 50th time a Falcon 9 rocket blasts off from Earth since its maiden voyage in June 2010. A Falcon 9 recycled rocket will launch for the 50th time on Tuesday. As part of the launch, SpaceX will attempt to land the rocket's first stage on its autonomous drone ship The rocket will deliver Hispasat 30W-6, a Spanish commercial communications satellite, to a geostationary transfer orbit, which is a halfway point en route to the satellite's final destination.

Oklahoma lawmaker wants to protect people who destroy drones flying on their property
Trespassing drones are becoming such a problem, says one Oklahoma lawmaker, that he wants people to be able to shoot them down without facing civil liability. State Sen. Ralph Shortey, a Republican who represents the Oklahoma City area, authored a bill that exempts people from lawsuits if they damage drones that veer onto their property, according to multiple reports. The lawmaker's measure unanimously passed out of the state Senate Judiciary Committee in late February and is headed for a full vote in the upper chamber sometime this month, according to ABC-TV affiliate KTUL.com The measure applies to drones that are not under Federal Aviation Administration regulation. "There (are) privacy issues that have not been addressed by any of the FAA regulations or state law," Shortey was quoted by KTUL as saying. "It doesn't matter how you damage that thing," Shortey said.

Sunspring A Sci-Fi Short Film Starring Thomas Middleditch
In the wake of Google's AI Go victory, filmmaker Oscar Sharp turned to his technologist collaborator Ross Goodwin to build a machine that could write screenplays. They created "Jetson" and fueled him with hundreds of sci-fi TV and movie scripts. Building a team including Thomas Middleditch, star of HBO's Silicon Valley, they gave themselves 48 hours to shoot and edit whatever Jetson decided to write.
