Meta’s AI Takes an Unsupervised Step Forward

Meta researchers believe that self-supervised learning is a necessary prerequisite for AI systems that can build “world models” and can therefore begin to gain human-like faculties such as reason, common sense, and the ability to transfer skills and knowledge from one context to another.


In the quest for human-level intelligent AI, Meta is betting on self-supervised learning.

The Rise of Artificial Brains — Nanowire Brain Powers Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is outgrowing the current pace of Hardware Improvements and requires a new kind of technology to keep up and enable future AI Applications. Scientists seem to have found that creating artificial brains out of nanowire can mimic the human brain and power the biggest and smartest AI models ever made at relatively low energy consumption.

Today’s deep neural networks already mimic one aspect of the brain: its highly interconnected network of neurons. But artificial neurons behave very differently than biological ones, as they only carry out computations. In the brain, neurons are also able to remember their previous activity, which then influences their future behavior. This in-built memory is a crucial aspect of how the brain processes information, and a major strand in neuromorphic engineering focuses on trying to recreate this functionality. This has resulted in a wide range of designs for so-called “memristors”: electrical components whose response depends on the previous signals they have been exposed to.

Toll fraud malware disables your WiFi to force premium subscriptions

Microsoft is warning that toll fraud malware is one of the most prevalent threats on Android and that it is evolving with features that allow automatic subscription to premium services.

Toll fraud is a subset of billing fraud, where the threat actor tricks victims into calling or sending an SMS to a premium number.

The difference is that toll fraud does not work over WiFi and forces the devices to connect to the mobile operator’s network.

GridRaster Uses the Metaverse to Build High Tech Prototypes and Finished Products

An Interview with COO Dijam Panigrahi.


“a unified and shared software infrastructure to empower enterprise customers to build and run scalable, high-quality eXtended Reality (XR) – Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR) – applications in public, private, and hybrid clouds.”

What does that all mean?

Simply, GridRaster creates spatial, high-fidelity maps of three-dimensional physical objects. So if you plan to build an automobile or aircraft, use the software to capture an image and create a detailed mesh model overlay that can be viewed using a VR headset. The mesh model can be shared with robots and other devices.
