Creepy AI by China's Baidu can accurately mimic your voice after listening to it for just ONE MINUTE
- Deep Voice learns which sounds go with text as well the quirks of your voice
- It can create you a robot-self that is indistinguishable from how you really talk
- It can also change the output of your voice to a different gender or accent
- It has serious implications as users can poach part of someone else's identity

China says it's on track
to launch its dystopian scorecard system that ranks
citizens on every aspect of their behaviour by 2020
- The system has already
completed several successful trials across China
- It is bolstered by a
network of 200 million AI-powered surveillance cameras
- Citizens' ratings are
boosted by buying Chinese goods and community service
- Your score is knocked down for fraud, tax evasion or criticising the government
Steve Forbes Open Letter
To Mark Zuckerberg
CALL the NEW
CURRENCY “Mark.” (of the Beast)
you might consider
changing the Libra’s name. The
“Libra” was a measure of weight from the Roman Empire, and we know where that
ended up. Don’t be bashful; call it the “Mark.”
Germany ditched its mark—which it had been using since it created it after
WWII—for the euro 20 years ago, so the name is up for grabs.
A gold-backed
Mark would be a transformative move in the history of money. It would blow bitcoin out of the water and would generate
an enthusiastic “Like” from billions of businesses and people, now and forever.
Sincerely, Steve Forbes
