 😠 TOM HANKS ATTACKS AI

Tom Hanks has called out an AI deepfake of him promoting a dental plan, which had been circling on social media.

"There's a video out there promoting some dental plan with an AI version of me," the actor wrote on Instagram. "I have nothing to do with it," he added.

T.Hanks for your thoughts, Tom

This is not the first time celebrity fakes have been used to promote scams, with Martin Lewis recently finding himself in the same predicament.

It isn’t the first time Tom Hanks has raised concerns about AI, having previously said it raises an artistic challenge for Hollywood.

Hanks said previously:

“I could be hit by a bus tomorrow and that’s it, but my performances can go on and on and on and on and on, and outside of the understanding that it’s been done with AI or deepfake, there’ll be nothing to tell you that it’s not me.”

Will we see other prominent actors putting their feet down on AI?

Is Tom Hanks right to call out AI deepfakes?

 🤖 HUMANE UNVEILS AMAZING “AI PIN”

Humane is a startup founded by ex-Apple executives that's working on a device called the "Ai Pin" that uses projectors, cameras and AI tech to act as a wearable AI assistant.

Now, they have unveiled the Ai Pin in full at a Paris fashion show.

There it is! Would you wear it?

The company describes the device as a "screenless, standalone device and software platform built from the ground up for AI."

It's powered by an "advanced" Qualcomm Snapdragon platform and equipped with a mini-projector that takes the place of a smartphone screen, along with a camera and speaker.

It can perform functions like AI-powered optical recognition, but is also supposedly "privacy-first" thanks to qualities like no wake word and thus no "always on" listening.

However, early demos seem to have set impossibly high standards for the product, with calls for example being “projected” onto your hand. The issue is that this would surely never work in broad daylight without a laser that would melt your hand off.

It remains to be seen whether the Humane bubble will burst or if they can deliver something truly special.
