UPDATE

🤖 Why even Google was afraid to release this technology

PimEyes, a facial recognition tool developed in Poland, allows users to identify people from photos by scanning the internet. While popular on TikTok, it's controversial due to its potential misuse as a surveillance tool and its collection of images without permission.

Big Tech companies like Google have developed similar tools but hesitate to release them due to misuse concerns. In the U.S., there's a lack of federal regulation on facial recognition, while the EU debates a potential ban.

Activists warn against treating individuals as "walking barcodes" without their consent.

UPDATE

🔊 ElevenLabs introduces AI Dubbing

ElevenLabs has launched AI Dubbing, which translates speech into over 20 languages. This tool aims to revolutionize the traditionally manual dubbing process, making it easier for smaller content creators to reach global audiences.

Users simply upload their content, and the tool handles the translation, retaining the original voice's emotions. No more tedious manual dubbing!

🎩 How AI is Changing the Fashion World?

1/ Design: AI helps turn ideas into real designs quickly. For instance, Tommy Hilfiger had a contest where designers used AI to make digital clothes.

2/ Helping Shoppers: AI can suggest outfits and sizes that might look good on you. Zalando, a shopping site, has a chat helper that gives fashion advice.

3/ Shopping Made Easy: With AI, you can find clothes online just by describing them. ASOS has a tool that lets you search with pictures.

4/ Virtual Fitting Rooms: AI lets you see how clothes might look on you without trying them on. Google has a tool where you can see how a top might fit you.

5/ Understanding Trends: AI can look at lots of pictures and data to figure out what's popular in fashion. A company called Heuritech uses AI to see what styles are trending on social media.

6/ Digital Clothes: There are now digital clothes that you can own online, called NFTs. Adidas and Moncler made a special line of these digital clothes.
