AI Creates Fake Obama
Artificial intelligence software could generate highly realistic fake videos of former president Barack Obama using existing audio and video clips of him, a new study [PDF] finds. Such work could one day help generate digital models of a person for virtual reality or augmented reality applications, researchers say. Computer scientists at the University of Washington previously revealed they could
Google Plans to Demonstrate the Supremacy of Quantum Computing
Quantum computers have long held the promise of performing certain calculations that are impossible—or at least, entirely impractical—for even the most powerful conventional computers to perform. Now, researchers at a Google laboratory in Goleta, Calif., may finally be on the cusp of proving it, using the same kinds of quantum bits, or qubits, that one day could make up large-scale quantum machine
MIT turns Wi-Fi Into Indoor GPS
Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite technology comes in handy for tracking cruise missiles, doing in-car navigation, and finding secluded restaurants. But step inside an airport, museum, or mall, and you’re often relegated to studying a paper map or asking for directions. There are positioning systems designed for indoors, but they rely either on GPS-like radio or magnetic beacons, or on map
Linux at 25: Q&A With Linus Torvalds
Linus Torvalds created the original core of the Linux operating system in 1991 as a computer science student at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linux rapidly grew into a full-featured operating system that can now be found running smartphones, servers, and all kinds of gadgets. In this e-mail interview, Torvalds reflects on the last quarter century and what the next 25 years might bring. St
How To Kill A Supercomputer: Dirty Power, Cosmic Rays, and Bad Solder
As a child, were you ever afraid that a monster lurking in your bedroom would leap out of the dark and get you? My job at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is to worry about a similar monster, hiding in the steel cabinets of the supercomputers and threatening to crash the largest computing machines on the planet. The monster is something supercomputer specialists call resilience—or rather the lack of
How South Korea's DRC-HUBO Robot Won the DARPA Robotics Challenge
DRC-HUBO prevailed over other robots because it completed all eight tasks flawlessly in the shortest amount of time (44 minutes and 28 seconds). Other teams also performed well in the competition, but setbacks made their robots lose time. These included Tartan Rescue’s CHIMP, a robot with legs and tank-like tracks that was the only robot to get back up after a fall; the University of Bonn’s Momaro
