Beginning in November, all political advertisements on Google that use artificial intelligence and synthetic content must inform the viewer that such tools have been utilized.

.

Verified advertisers must prominently reveal whether their ads consist of "synthetic content that inauthentically depicts real or realistic-looking people or events.".

Verified advertisers must prominently reveal whether their ads consist of "synthetic content that inauthentically depicts real or realistic-looking people or events.".

Political ads that don't comply will be blocked from running and removed.

The AI disclosure requirement is the first of its kind for a tech company, Politico reports.

.

However, if AI was only using for editing, such as resizing or cropping, disclosure is not required.

Politicians have already been using AI to their advantage approaching the 2024 election cycle.

For example, over the summer, a PAC supporting Ron DeSantis' White House bid generated an AI version of Donald Trump's voice and posted the video to YouTube.

Harris Campaign CAUGHT Manipulating News Headlines in Google Ads to Paint Rosier Picture| Report

Kamala Harris's campaign is using Google search ads that link to legitimate news articles but with altered headlines and descriptions to portray her favorably. This practice, ongoing since August, involves nearly a dozen major news outlets. While Google claims this doesn't violate rules, some news organizations were unaware of their brand's use. A technical glitch allegedly affected ad disclosures. Unlike Harris, Donald Trump's campaign isn't employing similar tactics. #KamalaHarris #GoogleSearch #HarrisWalz #DonaldTrump #Trump2024 #USElections2024 #Democrats #Worldnews #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~HT.97~ED.320~ED.194~

Researchers Use Machine Learning to Understand How Elephants Communicate [Video]

Researchers Use Machine Learning to Understand How Elephants Communicate

Researchers Use Machine Learning , to Understand How , Elephants Communicate. 'BGR' reports that communication among elephants may be more complex than scientists previously believed. New evidence suggests that elephants possess unique names which are used to address specific elephants. The study, made possible with the help of machine learning, was published in the journal 'Nature Ecology and Evolution.'. Machine learning was used to help researchers analyze hundreds of wild elephant calls, searching for three specific "rumbles.". These rumbles, which include a greeting, a caregiving gesture and a contact calling sound, are the primary form of communication used among elephants. Other animals are known to refer to their peers by name. Both dolphins and parrots address each other by mimicking the receiver's voice. Other animals are known to refer to their peers by name. Both dolphins and parrots address each other by mimicking the receiver's voice. Elephants, on the other hand, use a more abstract approach which is more closely related to the way humans communicate. Researchers believe the findings could suggest that elephants are capable of abstract thought, which would make them much more intelligent than previously believed. It remains unclear whether each individual elephant has its own unique name, or if they somehow share names or titles. 'BGR' reports that AI has proven very helpful in working to decode nature's mysteries. Another study used AI to begin unraveling the secret language of dogs. .
