  1. #Tinder Plans to Let #AI Scan Your #Camera Roll

    Tinder plans to let machine vision #algorithms loose on your camera roll. Instead of building a profile on their own, AI will scan users’ locally-stored photos—everything from gym #selfies to pictures of their family, sensitive documents and dick pics—to help construct profiles by determining what users’ interests and values are.

  2. University of Exeter: Wildlife imaging shows that AI models aren’t as smart as we think. “Marketing for AI imaging systems often suggests that models can easily tackle novel scenarios across ecosystems and settings, much in the same way as human observers. But in a new article, two University of Exeter researchers argue that this is based on a ‘flawed assumption’.”

  3. Automation is moving from “perfectly placed parts” to real-world randomness — mixed bins, uneven shapes, variable orientation.

  4. Q42 Research: Expanding visual search for online art collections. “Ever wanted to find artworks containing a specific object? Like a particular vase, animal, or architectural element across an art collection? I made this a reality by combining two machine learning models during my graduation research project for Q42 and University of Applied Sciences Windesheim.”

  5. IEEE Spectrum: TraffickCam Uses Computer Vision to Counter Human Trafficking . “Abby Stylianou built an app that asks its users to upload photos of hotel rooms they stay in when they travel. It may seem like a simple act, but the resulting database of hotel room images helps Stylianou and her colleagues assist victims of human trafficking.”

  6. Nature: Fair human-centric image dataset for ethical AI benchmarking. “…we introduce the Fair Human-Centric Image Benchmark (FHIBE, pronounced ‘Feebee’), a publicly available human image dataset implementing best practices for consent, privacy, compensation, safety, diversity and utility. FHIBE can be used responsibly as a fairness evaluation dataset for many human-centric computer vision […]

  8. My brain after debugging for hours: needs spatial-temporal reasoning. General Intuition just raised $134M to teach AI agents exactly that, leveraging video game data (the same kind OpenAI wanted!). We're talking AI that understands movement through space and time. What's one mundane task you'd immediately hand over to an AI with perfect spatial reasoning?

  9. Raymond Camden: Connecting Comic Books to Generative AI. “This week I was wondering – given that GenAI tools are pretty good at understanding images – how well could a GenAI system take a set of images, in order, and understand the context of the story behind them. I decided to give it a shot and honestly, I’m pretty impressed by the results.”

  10. Luckfox Lyra Zero boards feature NPU or Cortex-M co-processor options, sell for under $20

    The Luckfox Lyra Zero W is a Raspberry Pi Zero-shaped single-board computer that launched earlier this year as an inexpensive board featuring a triple-core ARM Cortex-A7 processor and a Cortex-M0 co-processor for low-power, low-latency jobs, making it a solution for embedded applications.

    Now the company has introduced a new board called the Lyra Pico Zero that’s the same size, but it […]

  11. The Pudding: What if you could search every visible word on New York City’s streets?. “This is possible because media artist Yufeng Zhao fed millions of publicly-available panoramas from Google Street View into a computer program that transcribes text within the images (anyone can access these Street View images; you don’t even need a Google account!).”

  12. Temple University: New research reveals superior visual perception in humans compared with AI. “[Professor Vlad] Ayzenberg and researchers from Emory University compared the visual perceptual abilities of preschoolers and state-of-the-art AI models and found that these children outperformed the best computer vision models currently available.”

  13. North Carolina State University: New Attack Can Make AI ‘See’ Whatever You Want. “Researchers have demonstrated a new way of attacking artificial intelligence computer vision systems, allowing them to control what the AI ‘sees.’ The research shows that the new technique, called RisingAttacK, is effective at manipulating all of the most widely used AI computer vision systems.”
