🤔 DOES GOOGLE PIXEL’S AI GO TOO FAR?

Google’s latest Pixel - The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro have some powerful AI features.

Google are keen to push the AI features of the phone, which is especially evident if you’ve seen any advertising for the new models.

The main features involve photo editing with AI, allowing you to manipulate images.

For example, Google’s “best take” feature lets you edit somebody’s face to smile, by using other photos of them in your library.

You can also remove background objects, resize elements and more.

it’s fascinating tech - but does it go too far?

Many articles have already called it ‘problematic”, “icky”, “creepy” and “sending us down a dark path”.

I can’t help but agree here. The impact of faked images on social media has been obvious, with people holding themselves to unrealistic standards and mental health issues spiralling. So being able to fake to an even better standard cannot be a good thing.

I also don’t understand why anyone would want to edit their photo memories and falsify them… But maybe that’s just me.

Does Google's Pixel AI go too far?

📚 BOOK RECOMMENDATION

The best books to dive deeper and get real insights on artificial intelligence.

AIQ: How Artificial Intelligence Works and How We Can Harness Its Power for a Better World

Nick Polson and James Scott’s informative book explains how artificial intelligence functions and explores ways to use its potential for the benefit of society. The authors delve into AI's inner workings while emphasising its practical applications and the positive impact it can have on various aspects of our lives.

🍗 AI CAN SLASH FOOD WASTE

Food waste is a major issue facing our times. Over 30% of food is simply thrown away, according to studies.

But what if we could keep food fresh for longer, meaning it doesn’t need to be thrown out?

A group of chemists who study ways to extend the life of food products, have recently published a study describing the advantages of AI tools to help keep oil and fat samples fresh for longer.

Foods can go off for many different reasons - but the key trigger is usually oxygen exposure, with heat and light accelerating the process.

The solution? Antioxidants. I’m sure you’ve heard that buzzword before, but applying them to foods is actually incredibly complicated, with many hours of work required to check which formulas would be effective in each food.

This is where AI comes in.

After feeding a machine learning model of 1,100 antioxidant mixtures, the AI could predict the effect of combining any set of two or three antioxidants in under a second.

After adding about 200 examples from the lab enabled the AI to learn enough chemistry to predict the outcomes of the experiments performed by the team.

This could eventually pave the way for an extended shelf life for a huge variety of foods, slashing food waste (hopefully).
