Meta launches new Facebook Verified badge for actual, real humans

Engadget

In the face of AI content, profiles and slop, Meta hopes a new Facebook Verified program will help human users interact with other humans. Based on a facial recognition selfie, checked against your existing profile pics, the company says the process will only take a few minutes. Interestingly, Meta has chosen to use facial recognition, given recent legal settlements and the pushback over facial recognition inside its smartglasses . To qualify, you will have to be over 18 and in good standing with Facebook's community standards. Once you've passed the test, your verified badge will appear across Marketplace, Dating and other parts of Facebook's sites and services. The big difference between this and the Facebook badge of old is that it's explicitly only identity confirmation, not endorsement, from Facebook or any guarantee of their trustworthiness.


AI listens in to help protect wildlife

AIHub

Strolling through a forest, you may notice that the air is filled with sound. Birds sing, insects and small mammals rustle through the undergrowth, and at dusk bats squeak as they communicate with each other. These soundscapes contain a wealth of information about which animals are present, how many there are and how healthy an ecosystem may be. But analysing all that audio is a huge challenge. Scientists can now collect enormous quantities of recordings using small autonomous devices placed in forests, wetlands and urban areas.

Some Kids Will Never Think AI Is Cool

WIRED

"I think it should stand for," one 9-year-old says. Here's why kids of all ages are calling AI "disgusting" and "creepy." Forget cheating on homework and chatbot friends. Some kids are getting in on a new AI trend: thinking it sucks. In the four years since chatbots went mainstream, and their marketing campaigns went into overdrive, young people have grown increasingly skeptical of the hype around LLMs. Yes, many of them still use the tech for school assignments and companionship, but according to market research firm YPulse, 37 percent of teens aged 13 to 17 cringe when they see AI content like music and videos, and more than half worry about misinformation and deepfakes.


Kagi Brings Back Old-School Search, One Human-Made Website at a Time

WIRED

If you're tired of sponsored and AI-summarized search results, Kagi gives you a curated--and human-centric--way to find what you're looking for. If you're of a certain age, you'll remember the way the web used to be: sites made and developed by humans. You could load up a directory like AltaVista or Yahoo and click through categories including Home & Family, Science, and Computers. In those listings you'd find pages put together by hobbyists, academics, and tech nerds. People gathered around forums and bulletin boards, and web developers tended to avoid putting images on their sites because it would slow down page loading.
