Whether you're flipping through private pictures on your smartphone or typing out a text with the expansive 6.2-inch display on your Galaxy S8+, you've likely no doubt caught a "creeper" at some point who then quickly looks away when caught. Well, two Google researchers -- Hee Jung Ryu and Florian Schroff -- have devised a way to use the front-facing "selfie" camera on Pixel smartphones to determine if someone else is taking a peek at your display. The researchers have employed artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to spot these lurkers that spy over your shoulder. Ryu and Schroff claim...

Google continues to make advances in all of its artificial intelligence endeavors, and the most recent fruits of its labors comes from Project Magenta. Magenta comes to use from the Google Brain team and was tasked with actually creating music using a trained neural network. Using the open-source machine learning platform TensorFlow as a basis, the Magenta team was able to turn the table on the tools that have previously been used to decipher human content in order for the machine to have its own “voice”. “We believe that the models that have worked so well in speech recognition, translation and image annotation will seed an exciting new crop of tools for art and music creation,” said Douglas...
