'He would be a great leader,' Melania Trump said of then-boyfriend Donald Trump in 1999 ABC News interview

 

Before she became the nationโ€™s first lady, ABC News spoke with Melania Trump when she was a supermodel dating the future president of the United States, Donald Trump, and asked her what she thought about being in the White House.

 

On Dec. 3, 1999, the Slovenian supermodel, then-named Melania Knauss, 26, sat down with ABC News correspondent Don Dahler following a photo shoot in New York City for a North Shore Animal League America campaign. She and then-real estate mogul Donald Trump had met the year before during a party at New York Fashion Week

Alexa heard what you did last summer โ€“ and she knows what that was, too: AI recognizes activities from sound

Gadgets taught to identify actions via always-on mics

 

Boffins have devised a way to make eavesdropping smartwatches, computers, mobile devices, and speakers with endearing names like Alexa better aware of what's going on around them.

 

In a paper to be presented today at the ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (UIST) in Berlin, Germany, computer scientists Gierad Laput, Karan Ahuja, Mayank Goel, and Chris Harrison describe a real-time, activity recognition system capable of interpreting collected sound.

 

In other words, a software that uses devices' always-on builtin microphones to sense what exactly's going on in the background.

 

The researchers, based at Carnegie Mellon University in the US, refer to their project as "Ubicoustics" because of the ubiquity of microphones in modern computing devices.
