Virtual Immortality

We all know the immense pain of losing someone close to our heart to death. When the dead person also remains our Facebook friend, its hard to admit that they won’t replay back to them anymore. What if people could chat with the dead person on his/her “Remembering” page to better know about their values & interests? It might sound fancy, but technological revolutions enable us to make fictions into reality. The idea of “Virtual Self” isn’t very new, but the implementation would be significant. “Virtual Self” is a Deep Learning based technology which can replicate someones reply if trained on his/her chat history on social medias, specially Facebook. We have created a Character level language model with deep neural network which could be trained with anyones Facebook data, specifically chat history. After some parametric optimization, the language model works pretty well creating “reply message” to user queries by itself. The “Virtual Self” model could be furt...

No one remain hidden

You must have known that the first major legal challenge in the UK over police use of automated facialrecognition surveillance has begun in Cardiff just yesterday.

We can really see that the mass facial recognition technologies  are facing serious controversies as opposed to China, where social credit system relies on facial recogni...
