Microsoft Paint Is Getting an AI-Powered Image Generator

Microsoft Paint is getting a new image generator tool called Cocreator that can generate images based on text prompts and doodles. Engadget reports: During a demo at its Surface event, the company showed off how Cocreator combines your own drawings with text prompts to create an image. There's also a "creativity slider" that allows you to control how much you want AI to take over compared with your original art. As Microsoft pointed out, the combination of text prompts and your own brush strokes enables faster edits. It could also help provide a more precise rendering than what you'd be able to achieve with DALL-E or another text-to-image generator alone.

JPMorgan, Mastercard Embrace Biometric Payment Options

With JPMorgan and Mastercard piloting biometric payment options, a future where consumers can pay with their face is rapidly approaching. "Our focus on biometrics as a secure way to verify identity, replacing the password with the person, is at the heart of our efforts in this area," said Dennis Gamiello, executive vice president of identity products and innovation at Mastercard. Based on the positive feedback received thus far, Gamiello says the biometric checkout technology will roll out to more new markets later this year. CNBC reports: Biometric payment options are becoming more common. Amazon introduced pay-by-palm technology in 2020, and while its cashier-less store experiment has faltered, it installed the tech in 500 of its Whole Foods stores last year. Mastercard, which is working with PopID, launched a pilot for face-based payments in Brazil back in 2022, and it was deemed a success -- 76% of pilot participants said they would recommend the technology to a friend. Late last year, Mastercard said it was teaming with NEC to bring its Biometric Checkout Program to the Asia-Pacific region. A deal that PopID recently signed with JPMorgan is a sign of things to come in the U.S., said John Miller, PopID CEO, and what he thinks will be a "breakthrough" year for pay-by-face technology. The consumer case is tied to the growing importance of loyalty programs. Most quick-service restaurants require consumers to provide their loyalty information to earn rewards -- which means pulling out a phone, opening an app, finding the link to the loyalty QR code, and then presenting the QR code to the cashier or reader. For payment, consumers are typically choosing between pulling out their wallet, selecting a credit card, and then dipping or tapping the card or pulling out their phone, opening it with Face ID, and then presenting it to the reader. Miller says PopID simplifies this process by requiring just tapping an on-screen button, and then looking briefly at a camera for both loyalty check-in and payment. "We believe our partnership with JPMorgan is a watershed moment for biometric payments as it represents the first time a leading merchant acquirer has agreed to push biometric payments to its merchant customers," Miller said. "JPMorgan brings the kind of credibility and assurance that both merchants and consumers need to adopt biometric payments." Juniper Research forecasts over 100% market growth for global biometric payments between 2024 and 2028, and by 2025, $3 trillion in mobile, biometric-secured payments. Sheldon Jacobson, a professor in computer science at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, said he sees biometric identification as part of a technology continuum that has evolved from payment with a credit card to smartphones. "The next natural step is to simply use facial recognition," he said.

'Prism' Translation Layer Does For Arm PCs What Rosetta Did For Macs

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Microsoft is going all-in on Arm-powered Windows PCs today with the introduction of a Snapdragon X Elite-powered Surface Pro convertible and Surface Laptop, and there are inevitable comparisons to draw with another big company that recently shifted from Intel's processors to Arm-based designs: Apple. A huge part of the Apple Silicon transition's success was Rosetta 2, a translation layer that makes it relatively seamless to run most Intel Mac apps on an Apple Silicon Mac with no extra effort required from the user or the app's developer. Windows 11 has similar translation capabilities, and with the Windows 11 24H2 update, that app translation technology is getting a name: Prism. Microsoft says that Prism isn't just a new name for the same old translation technology. Translated apps should run between 10 and 20 percent faster on the same Arm hardware after installing the Windows 11 24H2 update, offering some trickle-down benefits that users of the handful of Arm-based Windows 11 PCs should notice even if they don't shell out for new hardware. The company says that Prism's performance should be similar to Rosetta's, though obviously this depends on the speed of the hardware you're running it on. Microsoft also claims that Prism will further improve the translation layer's compatibility with x86 apps, though the company didn't get into detail about the exact changes it had made on this front.

RFC Patches Posted For Rust-Written NVIDIA "Nova" GPU Driver

Red Hat engineers have been developing Nova as a new, Rust-written open-source NVIDIA kernel graphics driver as the eventual successor to the Nouveau kernel driver and is designed around NVIDIA's GPU System Processor (GSP) thus making the driver relevant for RTX 20 / Turing GPUs and newer. Today they posted a request for comments (RFC) patch series of the Nova driver and Rust DRM abstractions...

Google Thinks the Public Sector Can Do Better Than Microsoft's 'Security Failures'

An anonymous reader shares a report: Google is pouncing on Microsoft's weathered enterprise security reputation by pitching its services to government institutions. Pointing to a recent report from the US Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) that found that Microsoft's security woes are the result of the company "deprioritizing" enterprise security, Google says it can help. The company's pitch isn't quite as direct as Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella saying he made Google dance, but it's spicy all the same. Repeatedly referring to Microsoft as "the vendor" throughout its blog post on Monday, Google says the CSRB "showed that lack of a strong commitment to security creates preventable errors and serious breaches." Platforms, it added, "have a responsibility" to hold to strong security practices. And of course, who is more responsible than Google?

Intel Teases Lunar Lake CPU Ahead of Computex: Most Power Efficient x86 Chip Yet

The next few weeks in the PC industry are going to come fast and furious. Between today and mid-June are multiple conferences and trade-shows, including Microsoft Build and the king of PC trade shows: Computex Taiwan. With all three PC CPU vendors set to present, there’s a lot going on, and a lot of product announcements to be had. But even before those trade shows start, Intel is looking to make the first move this afternoon with an early preview on its next-gen mobile processor, Lunar Lake.

While Intel hasn’t said too much about what to expect from their Computex 2024 keynote thus far, it’s clear that Intel’s next-gen CPUs – Lunar Lake for mobile, and Arrow Lake for Mobile/Desktop – are going to be two of the major stars of the show. At this point Intel has previously teased and/or demoed both chips (Lunar more so than Arrow), and this afternoon the company is releasing a bit more information on Lunar Lake even before Computex kicks off.

Officially, today’s reveal is a preview of Intel’s next Tech Tour event, which is taking place at the end of May. Unofficially, this is the exact same date and time as the embargo on Qualcomm Snapdragon X laptop announcements, which are slated to hit retail shelves next month. Lunar Lake laptops, by contrast, will not hit retail shelves until Q4 of this year. So although the additional technical details from today’s disclosure are great to have, looking at the bigger picture it’s difficult to interpret this reveal as anything less than a bald-faced effort to interdict the Snapdragon X launch (not that Qualcomm hasn’t also been crowing about SDX for the last 7 months). Which, if nothing else, goes to show the current tumultuous state of the laptop CPU market, and that Intel isn’t nearly as secure in their position as they have traditionally been.

With Recall, Microsoft is Using AI To Fix Windows' Eternally Broken Search

Microsoft today unveiled Recall, a new AI-powered feature for Windows 11 PCs, at its Build 2024 conference. Recall aims to improve local searches by making them as efficient as web searches, allowing users to quickly retrieve anything they've seen on their PC. Using voice commands and contextual clues, Recall can find specific emails, documents, chat threads, and even PowerPoint slides. The feature uses semantic associations to make connections, as demonstrated by Microsoft Product Manager Caroline Hernandez, who searched for a blue dress and refined the query with specific details. Microsoft said that Recall's processing is done locally, ensuring data privacy and security. The feature utilizes over 40 local multi-modal small language models to recognize text, images, and video.

Another Online Pharmacy Bypasses the FDA To Offer Cut-Rate Weight Loss Drugs

An anonymous reader shares a report: Hims & Hers Health, one of the online pharmacies that got its start prescribing dick pills, is now offering knockoff versions of GLP-1 weight loss drugs. Hims & Hers says it will offer drugs that mimic Ozempic and Wegovy, the active ingredient of which is semaglutide. The copycat versions are made by compounding pharmacies. The formulations aren't the same as the FDA-approved versions of the drug and haven't been directly evaluated by the FDA, either. But they're cheaper than the real thing: $199 a month, compared to the branded version, which can cost more than $1,000 a month without insurance. Compounding pharmacies can make knockoff versions of branded drugs when they are in shortage, as the GLP-1 drugs -- prescribed for diabetes and weight loss -- currently are. The FDA has already received reports of adverse events for compounded versions of semaglutide. Hims & Hers says it "conducted extensive research for over a year" into finding a supplier, but does not name the one it chose to partner with. "Over the last year, we have grown in our conviction -- based on our medical experts' evaluation and the strength of our infrastructure -- that if done properly, compounded GLP-1s are safe and effective," the company said in its statement.

Microplastics Found in Every Human Testicle in Study

Microplastics have been found in human testicles, with researchers saying the discovery might be linked to declining sperm counts in men. From a report: The scientists tested 23 human testes, as well as 47 testes from pet dogs. They found microplastic pollution in every sample. The human testicles had been preserved and so their sperm count could not be measured. However, the sperm count in the dogs' testes could be assessed and was lower in samples with higher contamination with PVC. The study demonstrates a correlation but further research is needed to prove microplastics cause sperm counts to fall. Sperm counts in men have been falling for decades, with chemical pollution such as pesticides implicated by many studies. Microplastics have also recently been discovered in human blood, placentas and breast milk, indicating widespread contamination of people's bodies. The impact on health is as yet unknown but microplastics have been shown to cause damage to human cells in the laboratory. Vast amounts of plastic waste are dumped in the environment and microplastics have polluted the entire planet, from the summit of Mount Everest to the deepest oceans. People are known to consume the tiny particles via food and water as well as breathing them in. The particles could lodge in tissue and cause inflammation, as air pollution particles do, or chemicals in the plastics could cause harm. In March, doctors warned of potentially life-threatening effects after finding a substantially raised risk of stroke, heart attack and earlier death in people whose blood vessels were contaminated with microscopic plastics.

Comment OpenAI évite toute critique de ses anciens employés

NDIA

La semaine dernière, des employés d’OpenAI, dont Ilya Sutskever et Jan Leike, ont quitté l’entreprise, laissant l’équipe de « Superalignement » vide. Mais leur message pour annoncer leur départ était laconique. La raison ? OpenAI imposait jusqu’à présent à ses salariés voulant quitter l’entreprise la signature d’un accord de confidentialité (NDA) à vie, au risque de perdre leurs actions.

Les déclarations des démissionnaires d’OpenAI envers leur ancien employeur étaient plus que succinctes. Ilya Sutskever affirmait ainsi être « convaincu qu’OpenAI construira une AGI à la fois sûre et bénéfique ». Étonnement positif pour quelqu’un quittant l’entreprise. Jan Leike a seulement écrit « « j’ai démissionné ».

Vendredi, OpenAI a finalement annoncé la dissolution pure et simple de leur équipe tout en expliquant intégrer les personnes restantes dans ses autres équipes de recherche « afin d’aider l’entreprise à atteindre ses objectifs en matière de sécurité ».

Le média Vox a trouvé une raison au mutisme des employés : l’entreprise leur a simplement fait signer un accord de confidentialité (NDA) qui leur interdit de la critiquer.

Interdiction de critique à vie

Self-Proclaimed Bitcoin Inventor Lied 'Repeatedly' To Support Claim, Says UK Judge

An Australian computer scientist who claimed he invented bitcoin lied "extensively and repeatedly" and forged documents "on a grand scale" to support his false claim, a judge at London's High Court ruled on Monday. From a report: [...] Judge James Mellor ruled in March that the evidence Craig Wright was not Satoshi was "overwhelming", after a trial in a case brought by the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA) to stop Wright suing bitcoin developers. Mellor gave reasons for his conclusions on Monday, stating in a written ruling: "Dr Wright presents himself as an extremely clever person. However, in my judgment, he is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is." The judge added: "All his lies and forged documents were in support of his biggest lie: his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto."

OpenAI Says Sky Voice in ChatGPT Will Be Paused After Concerns It Sounds Too Much Like Scarlett Johansson

OpenAI is pausing the use of the popular Sky voice in ChatGPT over concerns it sounds too much like the "Her" actress Scarlett Johansson. From a report: The company says the voices in ChatGPT were from paid voice actors. A final five were selected from an initial pool of 400 and it's purely a coincidence the unnamed actress behind the Sky voice has a similar tone to Johansson. Voice is about to become more prominent for OpenAI as it begins to roll out a new GPT-4o model into ChatGPT. With it will come an entirely new conversational interface where users can talk in real-time to a natural-sounding and emotion-mimicking AI. While the Sky voice and a version of ChatGPT Voice have been around for some time, the comparison to Johansson became more obvious due to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and many others, drawing the similarity between the new AI model and the movie "Her". In "Her," Scarlett Johansson voices an advanced AI operating system named Samantha, who develops a romantic relationship with a lonely writer played by Joaquin Phoenix. With its ability to mimic emotional responses, the parallels from GPT-4o were obvious.

AYA Neo Air 1S : le console 5.5″ AMOLED évolue vers le 8840U

Minimachines.net en partenariat avec TopAchat.com

Mise à jour du 20/05/2024 : La console AYA Neo Air 1S change de processeur sans changer de nom. Il faut dire que la seule différence entre le modèle 2023 et ce nouveau modèle en 2024 est un passage du Ryzen 7 7840U à un Ryzen 7 8840U  qui sont quasiment identique mis à part leur TDP. Le nouveau venu oscille de 15 à 28 watts contre 15 à 25 watts pour le précédent. La batterie pourrait être adaptée en conséquence à moins que Aya décide de brider la pue à 25 watts ?

Billet original du 30/06/2023 : La dernière née des ConsolePC de Aya change un peu la mécanique habituelle. Avec un écran haut de gamme mais de plus petite diagonale, la AYA Neo Air 1S cherche à jouer sur la corde de l’encombrement pour lutter contre la concurrence.

Et ce n’est pas un mauvais pari, d’autant que cette nouvelle venue ne semble pas vouloir démériter sur la performance proposée. En choisissant un excellent processeur AMD Ryzen 7 7840U, la AYA Neo Air 1S proposera les mêmes capacités que la majorité de ses concurrentes. Elle le fera simplement dans un engin au châssis plus facilement transportable.

L’écran choisi utilise une dalle AMOLED pour proposer un FullHD raisonnable dans ce type de diagonale. Avec son processeur qui embarque un circuit graphique Radeon 780M, les capacités d’affichage seront excellentes en 1920 x 1080 pixels. La densité de pixels atteindra 404 pixels par pouce et les caractéristiques de la dalle seront assez évoluées : 350 nits de luminosité, et une colorimétrie contrôlée proposant 100% du spectre sRGB, et 96% de l’Adobe RGB. En clair, Aya a choisi une dalle plus que correcte pour démarquer sa petite console.

La puce déployant 8 cœurs Zen4 et 12 RDNA3 sera accompagnée par un montant inconnu de mémoire vive en LPDDR5x. Et donc soudée à la carte mère. On ne connait pas ce montant, ce qui signifie que Aya n’est pas encore très sur de lui sur ce poste. J’imagine que suivant les négociations on retrouvera ici de 8 à 32 Go de mémoire vive. Difficile de justifier plus ou moins. A mon sens 16 ou 32 Go sont parfaitement adaptés à cette solution, le partage de la mémoire système avec le circuit graphique ayant un impact sur les performances globales, les 8 Go sont un peu maigres au vu du cours actuel de la mémoire vive.

Le stockage est monté sur un slot M.2 2280 non identifié. Là encore je doute que le choix d’autre chose qu’une solution NVMe soit retenue. Les prix de ces stockages sont désormais plus bas que leurs homologues en SATA 3. On ne connait pas les montants de ce stockage. Là encore le choix entre des solutions 256/512 Go semble logique même si les constructeurs sont désormais habitués à proposer des machines avec de grosses capacités sur leur haut de gamme.

Un lecteur de cartes MicroSDXC permettra d’étendre le stockage de la console facilement. On retrouve également deux ports USB4, un port jack audio combo 3.5 mm et un module Wi-Fi6E et Bluetooth 5.2.

Le tout entre dans un châssis de 22.4 cm de large pour 8.95 de haut et 2.16 cm d’épaisseur. Un petit gabarit très dense qui porte son poids à 450 grammes et permet d’embarquer une belle collection de fonctions. C’est vraiment l’argument phare de la console puisqu’il promet une meilleure portabilité que l’ensemble des solutions concurrentes actuelles.

Face à la console de Valve, la AYA Neo Air 1S propose une toute autre portabilité. L’engin est moins large et moins haut et pourra plus facilement vous suivre tout au long de la journée.

Même chose face à la ROG Ally d’Asus. La nouvelle venue est beaucoup plus compacte et portable. Bien entendu cette limitation de poids et de taille pose question. Aya assure être arrivé à proposer une ventilation équivalente en température… mais on ne sait pas si cela se fait au détriment du confort à l’usage. Si la console parvient à rafraichir sa puce en échange d’une ventilation bruyante ou non. Autre questionnement, quel impact cela aura sur l’autonomie de la console ? Combien d’heures de jeu seront réellement atteignables avec ce gabarit. Si l’engin est plus portable mais ne propose que l’ombre de l’autonomie de ses concurrentes, cela n’a pas grand intérêt.

Pour le reste, on retrouve une belle panoplie de fonctions avec un capteur 6 axes servant de gyroscope, un moteur de vibration, une paire d’enceintes stéréo et une panoplie de contrôleurs complète pour une bonne jouabilité. Double joystick à effet Hall, gâchettes également analogiques, boutons ABXY et croix directionnelle. Le tout fonctionnera sous Windows 11 et la marque promet une surcouche logicielle de pilotage baptisée AYA Space 2.0 pour profiter au mieux de la console. On note aussi la présence d’un lecteur d’empreintes sur le bouton de démarrage pour s’identifier facilement et retrouver des sessions et des bureaux différents suivants les utilisateurs.

Je vous propose le lien vers la vidéo de 53′ présentant la console mais elle est malheureusement difficile à suivre. Elle débute réellement à 11’30 et le patron de Aya y parle en chinois avec une traduction en Anglais par dessus qui rend l’ensemble parfois difficile à suivre. Mais si ce modèle vous intéresse vraiment, vous pourrez y retrouver des informations supplémentaires.
