OSINT для ленивых. Часть 10: Что у нас с фирмами в США?

В наше время, когда секретов почти нет, еще сильней хочется спрятать свои секретики. Но спрятать ты можешь не все. Тем более, если ты лицо юридическое, например, - фирма, работающая в США. Самое большое хранилище информации — IRS налоговая служба (ну кто бы сомневался). Но если нам надо проверить надежность контрагента или его финансовое состояние, то мы не сможем написать туда или позвонить и спросить: "Скажите, а фирма Рога и копыта.inc... Read more

Атомная программа КНДР

Что мы себе представляем себе, когда думаем про Северную Корею? Скорее всего это будут не только фотографии пухлых лидеров с трибуны Народного дворца учёбы на площади Ким Ир Сена, но и баллистические ракеты с ядерными боевыми частями. И это не случайно, ведь КНДР пока единственная страна, которая вошла в ядерный клуб не благодаря, а вопреки лидерам мнений всего остального человечества.

Робот-поводырь за 1600 $: как ИИ пришел туда, где раньше были только собаки и благотворительность

В сферу помощи людям с ограниченными возможностями венчурный капитал и топ-исследователи никогда не спешили. Слишком маленький рынок, сложный пользователь, долгая окупаемость. Но теперь ИИ-индустрия заходит на эту территорию всерьез — полноценным научным проектом на главной конференции года по искусственному интеллекту.Команда Бингемтонского университета создала робота-поводыря с LLM внутри.

Резиновый кирпич: история планшета Kalidor, опередившего эпоху

В поезде метро напротив вас сидит пожилой мужчина и сосредоточенно читает электронную книгу на экране планшета. Курьер с терморюкзаком за спиной ищет адрес клиента, водя пальцем по экранной карте, официант в ресторане принимает заказ, постукивая по чёрному прямоугольнику размером с книгу. Никто из этих людей не задумывается, что держит в руках устройство, чья родословная уходит куда глубже, чем принято считать. Если спросить случайного посетителя «Хабра», когда появились планшеты, он, вероятно,... Read more
