There's a new Knives Out movie on Netflix, and I still haven't seen a few of this season's awards contenders. But the film I most wish I could watch right now is Squid Invasion From the Deep. It's a sci-fi thriller directed by John Carpenter about a team of scientists led by Sigourney Weaver who discover an extraterrestrial cephalopod and then die one by one at its tentacles. The production design was inspired by Alien and The Thing; there are handmade creature FX and lots of gore; Wilford Brimley has a cameo. Unfortunately, though, I can't see this movie, and neither can you, because it doesn't exist.

Though most are loath to admit it, retailers already make extensive, behind-the-scenes use of biometrics to track employees, nab shoplifters and improve store security.

Peter Trepp, CEO of facial recognition software company FaceFirst, told McClatchy in May 2018 that his company can "match a face against the database of 25 million people in just under a second," and the firm's website counts hundreds of big-box stores, superstores, department stores, grocery stores, pharmacies and Fortune 500s among its clients. A similar article, published by BuzzFeed News in August 2018, titled, "Thousands of Stores Will Soon Use Facial Recognition, and They Won't Need Your Consent," similarly revealed the technology's pervasiveness and delved deeper into its privacy implications. In our latest report, "Biometric Marketing 2019," we found that despite these concerns, retailers are exploring biometric technology, including behavioral tracking and facial and voice recognition, for advertising and promotional targeting.

Facebook's deep learning algorithms are designed to make your life easier, and when you upload a photo, it instantly suggests who you might want to tag. However, many users are unaware that the technology is also adding its own tags to your images, analysing the number of people, the setting and even whether or not people are smiling. Now, a developer has released a new Chrome extension that shows users exactly what Facebook thinks it'sees' in pictures uploaded to the social media site. Many users are unaware that Facebook's AI adds detailed tags to pictures. This includes number of people (it lists three in Kim Kardashian West's picture) the setting and whether or not the person is smiling Facebook uses artificial intelligence and image recognition to reveal what is shown in these photos.
