  23-08-2021 23:44 via thenextweb.com
  
  The universe started with a Big Bang. Everything that was ever going to be anything was compacted into a tiny ball of whatever-ness and then it exploded outward and the universe begin expanding.

• Why emotion recognition AI can’t reveal how we feel

  23-08-2021 16:30 via thenextweb.com
  
  The growing use of emotion recognition AI is causing alarm among ethicists. They warn that the tech is prone to racial biases, doesn’t account for cultural differences, and is used for mass surveillance. Some argue that AI isn’t even capable of accurately detecting emotions. A new study published in Nature Communications has shone further light on these shortcomings. The researchers analyzed photos of actors to examine whether facial movements reliably express emotional st

  23-08-2021 16:08 via thenextweb.com
  
  The growth of electric vehicles on the road means we need more EV charging stations. But research this month has raised a big old red flag regarding the security of electric vehicle charging. Researchers from Pen Test Partners explored six home electric vehicle charging brands and public EV charging networks and found significant problems.  They found vulnerabilities in Project EV, Wallbox, EVBox, EO Charging’s EO Hub and EO mini pro 2, and Hypervolt, as well as the public charging n

  23-08-2021 14:09 via thenextweb.com
  
  Have you ever wondered if you’re just a character in some elaborate simulation? You shake the thought off because you’re a real person, living a real-life, in a concrete reality. But can you be certain that you are? Isn’t it at least possible that your body and that the world around you are nothing but illusions?

• OnlyFans wants to find ‘solutions’ for sex workers after its stupid porn ban

  23-08-2021 08:24 via thenextweb.com
  
  One of the biggest tech news of last week was OnlyFans banning porn content. The video streaming platform said at that time it has taken this decision to “ensure the long-term sustainability.” As my colleague, Napier pointed out, this move is dumb. It comes in the wake of payment processors bullying the platform into banning sexually explicit content for a ‘clean’ image. However, porn is one of the most popular content categories on OnlyFans, and the ban deprives a lot o
