IBM today announced the formation of its Elite Hybrid Cloud Build Team. According to Big Blue, this group of AI and cloud computing experts was assembled to help bring its partners into the cutting edge of hybrid solution systems. What? While Elite Hybrid Cloud Build Team might sound like a crack squad of futuristic Airborne Seabees, the reality is almost just as cool. Per IBM: The elite engagement team consists... Read more ›

Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood does two things really well. First, it continues the long-standing tradition of awkward naming conventions for video games set in the World of Darkness. And second: it lets me turn into a giant man-beast monster hybrid and tear corporate human stooges apart. Earthblood, as we’ll call it, is an action-RPG title from Cyanide Studios that has you defending Mother Nature from the evils of humankind.... Read more ›

Clearview AI violated Canada’s privacy laws by scraping photos of citizens from the internet without permission, the country’s regulators announced on Tuesday. The controversial firm provides software to law enforcement agencies that can match photos of faces to a database of more than 3 billion images. Canada’s privacy watchdogs said this creates a risk of significant harm to the public. They noted that people whose images are captured in Clearview’s... Read more ›

In factories and industrial estates across the world, exceptional efforts are being made to ensure hospitals have ventilators, and logistics firms have freezers and refrigerators. Behind the scenes, this manufacturing drive has been taking place on an epic, unprecedented scale. In some places, it’s also been horrendously inefficient. Some of that inefficiency is only to be expected. Manufacturing responsively at such short notice was always going to be messy. But... Read more ›

Amazon’s plans to install AI-powered cameras in its delivery vans have been slammed by privacy advocates as “the largest expansion of corporate surveillance in human history.” The e-commerce giant has been testing a system that provides real-time monitoring of the roads and drivers. In an instructional video first reported by The Information, Amazon said the cameras record drivers on their route “100% of the time.” The company told Reuters that... Read more ›

For a lot of people, getting Google Assistant on iOS is an exercise in pointlessness. I mean, one of the main reasons people shift to Apple is to escape the Big G’s privacy-violating data-hoovering. But it’d be remiss of us if we didn’t acknowledge that Google has some pretty fantastic products. Take voice-activated assistants for example. As much as I want to like Siri, I don’t. Apple’s virtual assistant is... Read more ›

With the proliferation of ebikes and other micromobility devices, Canada has decided it’s high time to take a look at how it regulates the tech. Reviewing regulations to bring them up to date for new tech sounds like a good thing, but in this case Canada is kind of missing the point. It could make ebikes, escooters, and the like a lot less enticing for Canadians if things don’t pan... Read more ›

Most of us are all too familiar with how expensive it is to find and hire new employees. And losing a new hire weeks or months after they join your team is even more costly. To increase retention, human resource departments invest incredible time and resources into their onboarding strategies. But, in my opinion, these strategies require a fresh perspective. 2020 might be gone, but remote hiring is here to... Read more ›

I remember Viber as an app my college friends and colleagues would use to call their relatives in other countries in the early 2010s. Since then, Viber has changed and evolved into a messaging app too. After WhatsApp released its new controversial privacy policy last month, there has been a lot of talk about finding alternatives to the Facebook-owned app. Most of these conversations have revolved around Telegram and Signal....

Last week, Tesla unveiled images and stats for its 2021 Model S refresh. Even though it was likely keen to wow people with the powerful Plaid drivetrain, it was the damn butterfly steering wheel that caught everyone’s eye. Some loved it, some hated, but almost all of us had no idea whether it was even legal. Based on information we uncovered at SHIFT, we resolved that it probably wouldn’t make... Read more ›

Audio-based social network Clubhouse is having a hell of a week after Elon Musk appeared on a session and caused its rooms to overflow. Now, there’s a frenzy of people trying to get into the invite-only social network. For the uninitiated, Clubhouse is an iOS-only app — backed by venture firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) — where users create rooms and chat to each other through audio in real-time. Apart from...

Disclaimer: nothing in this article should be constituted as mental health advice. This is anecdotal evidence from a technology journalist. I’ve been a gamer since the early 1980s. I cut my teeth on Tempest and Donkey Kong in the local arcade. Gaming is my solace. When big things happen in my life or in the world, and I need to wrap my head around them, my go-to coping mechanism is... Read more ›

AI has identified more than 1,2o0 new possible gravitational lenses, which could help unravel the mysteries of dark matter. The lenses are formed when a vast amount of matter — like a cluster of galaxies — bends the direction of light traveling from more distant galaxies. The lenses then typically appear as arcs and streaks. These images can help scientists infer the existence of dark matter — which the naked... Read more ›

A team of researchers at the University of Virginia have developed an AI system that attempts to detect and quantify the physiological signs associated with racial bias. In other words, they’re building a wearable device that tries to identify when you’re having racist thoughts. Up front: Nope. Machines can’t tell if a person is a racist. They also can’t tell if something someone has said or done is racist. And... Read more ›

Musician Steven Wilson has released a creepy Deepfake music video for his new single “Self.” The prog rocker used the deep learning technique to swap faces with a range of celebrities — while holding on to his hair. The full choir includes Donald Trump, Brad Pitt, Mark Zuckerberg, and David Bowie, the sole deceased member. Wilson said the song examines narcissism and celebrity in the digital age: The video takes... Read more ›
