==ES (Goog), Researching how AI sees through the Looking Glass detecting faked images==

Fail they will,

Q

WHo is Wendy Schmidt?

Understanding how reflection changes an image could also help use AI to identify images that have been faked or doctored – an issue of growing concern on the internet.

"This is perhaps a new tool or insight that can be used in the universe of image forensics, if you want to tell if something is real or not," Snavely said.

The research was supported in part by philanthropists Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google, andWendySchmidt.

Research reflects how AI sees through the looking glass

Summary:

Intrigued by how reflection changes images in subtle and not-so-subtle ways, a team of researchers used artificial intelligence to investigate what sets originals apart from their reflections. Their algorithms learned to pick up on unexpected clues such as hair parts, gaze direction and, surprisingly, beards - findings with implications for training machine learning models and detecting faked images.

The widespread use of cloth masks by healthcare workers may actually put them at increased risk of respiratory illness and viral infections and their global use should be discouraged, according to a UNSW study.

Cloth masks: Dangerous to your health?

Summary:

Respiratory infection is much higher among healthcare workers wearing cloth masks compared to medical masks, research shows. Cloth masks should not be used by workers in any healthcare setting, authors of the new study say.

Face masks critical in preventing spread of COVID-19

Study found that wearing a face mask stopped person-to-person spread of the virus

Summary:

A study has found that not wearing a face mask dramatically increases a person's chances of being infected by the COVID-19 virus. A study by a team of researchers led by a Texas A&M University professor has found that not wearing a face mask dramatically increases a person's chances of being infected by the COVID-19 virus.Renyi ZhangTexas A&M Distinguished Professor of Atmospheric Sciences and the Harold J. Haynes Chair in the College of Geosciences, and colleagues from the University of Texas, the University of California-San Diego and the California Institute of Technology have had their work published in the current issue of PNAS (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences). Zhang said that many people in China have worn face masks for years, mainly because of the bad air quality of the country. "So people there are sort of used to this," he said. Mandated face-covering helped China in containing the COVID-19 outbreak. Zhang said the results should send a clear message to people worldwide – wearing a face mask is essential in fighting the virus
