Artificial intelligence still has some way to go

sarah connor needs to move to zion in the matrix - makes sense to hole-up deep underground and let the machines fight on the surface

The latest generation of adversarial image attacks is, uh, somewhat simpler to carry out https://t.co/CBnA53lEcy pic.twitter.com/h4e0bShq9i

Good mugshot too

A Pennsylvania woman created "deepfake" videos of her daughter's cheerleading rivals, depicting them naked drinking and smoking

And then she sent them to her daughter's coaches to try and get them kicked off the squadhttps://t.co/WG49eJtODj

Very rad

Automatic "photoshopping" to order based on plain text commands. For example, give it a photo and tell it "mohawk", and it puts a mohawk on the person in the photo. Just to be clear, this is very different from eg an instagram "mohawk" filter would be, because afaik it isn't pre-programmed to do this stuff. Like, I think you could give it a novel prompt like "fish hat on head" or something and it would try to make that image for you.

Pretty cool

update from a friend in Indianapolis:

"There’s a pilot program in Indy to test driverless cars. The manager said the goal is for people to use them to and from IUPUI, and take them to the hospital, and so forth. They appear to have test drivers who do not control the steering. How do I know? Today, one somehow ended up straddling two lanes and managed to rear end me and the car to my right."

Parkour is the perfect sandbox for the Atlas team to experiment with new behaviors. Through jumps, balance beams, and vaults, we push Atlas to its limits to discover the next generation of mobility, perception, and athletic intelligence. https://t.co/xZRNVnhrkc pic.twitter.com/E0ssh45ZCi

can't wait to be murdered by these amazing robots

This is all very impressive, but I wouldn't count it as artificial intelligence since it all based on a carefully scripted program as opposed to the robots figuring out how to navigate and jump around all on their own.

oh, my bad! i always thought the boston dynamics robots were AI-trained at some level, but i guess not?

the mechanical component alone is definitely terror inducing

PSA for anyone who might be dealing with robot gun dogs, from a farm robot specialist who wasn't really looking at robot wrangling from the public safety standpoint but here we are. https://t.co/PhQSmEnzOn

xpost instructions are for imgur, i should have said.

"Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness" + dark fantasy = Endless array of great death metal covers. They tend to look like old Incantation albums.

I'd say this Wombo thingie merits its own thread, similarly to Transformer, where we can all display our best/worst results. Then, years from today, we'll be able to take a sentimental journey to rediscover our deathless creations.
