Top 10 Discoveries Involving Innovative Ancient Technology

By Mahmoud Alomda On February 28, 2018 In TECHNOLOGY

When we’re dazzled by the impressive leaps of modern technology, it is easy to forget the small shifts in innovation that pulled our species forward. Ancient light bulb moments may no longer seem great compared to spaceflight and the next self-parking car, but they do serve a valuable role.

New discoveries provide clues about lingering historic mysteries or reveal unexpected answers. They rewrite pages on agriculture, art, rituals, and even forgery. But not every object pulled from the earth can be so cleanly given a label, let alone a purpose. Some are so strange that experts keep changing their minds about what they were supposed to do.

Top 10 Cutting-Edge Innovations In The Future Of Forensic Science

By Mahmoud Alomda On January 19, 2018 In TECHNOLOGY

For police, prosecuting attorneys, criminologists, and forensic scientists alike, emerging technologies will almost certainly revolutionize the future of forensic science, making the capture and conviction of criminals increasingly likely. These technologies can help investigators in missing persons cases, cold cases, sexual assault cases, and murder cases.

Although potential dangers related to personal privacy have caused controversy about the use of these technologies, it seems clear that these ten cutting-edge innovations in the future of forensic science also promise enormous benefits to authorities, victims, victims’ families, and society in general.

10 Impossible Things Physicists Just Made Possible

By Mahmoud Alomda On January 12, 2018 In TECHNOLOGY

In the strange world of physics, the impossible is always possible. But in recent times, many scientists have managed to outdo even this caveat and have achieved some spectacular firsts.

10 Fascinating Facts About Facial Recognition Technology

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 18, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

Facial recognition technology (FRT) is one of the most controversial new tools. First developed in the 1960s, it has recently become accessible to the mass market—to both law enforcement and private consumers. FRT has the potential to eliminate the need for pass codes, fingerprint data, and even keys. However, it could also end privacy as we know it.

While it might be the future of policing, medicine, and banking, FRT exhibits racial bias and security vulnerabilities. Some even claim it can be used to determine sexual orientation. Given the power of this emergent technology, concerns about its use in the wrong hands are justified.

10 Events Surrounding Google’s Disastrous Adpocalypse

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 17, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

Imagine walking into work tomorrow and being told, due to no fault of your own, you would be forced to take an 80 percent pay cut that could last an undetermined amount of time. While that might sound like a crazy hypothetical situation, it was indeed a reality for thousands of people working online when Google’s so-called Adpocalypse began. Here are ten events that took place during and after Google’s perfect storm of a PR nightmare.

10Pewdiepie vs. WSJ: The Calm before the Storm

During a since deleted video on his channel, Pewdiepie visited a website called Fivver where you pay people to perform different jobs or tasks for you. He asked its users to do things ranging from zany to downright horribly inappropriate. To the YouTuber’s surprise, he actually got someone to unfurl a banner with the words DEATH TO ALL JEWS printed on it, as the people holding it laughed and yelled, “Subscribe to Keemstar!” The fallout from this came quickly.

One of the first to jump on the attack was the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), who documented multiple examples of Pewdiepie making anti-Semitic jokes and sent them to the companies that worked with him, asking for a response as to why they would employ someone making those sorts of jokes. Pewdiepie was immediately dropped from Maker Studio, and his YouTube Red series was canceled just before it released.[1] Pewdiepie made an apology video saying he did take it too far, but that the WSJ was smearing his name and taking multiple things out of context to hurt him.

9WSJ Hypocrisy: YouTubers Strike Back

After news came out that Pewdiepie had more or less been fired by Disneyand YouTube for his edgy jokes about Jewish people, fans and friends alike started digging into the Wall Street Journal’s writers to find out more about them. Most everyone involved in the Pewdiepie story, however, had locked down their accounts and blocked anyone from looking at their post history, and they stayed locked down, all except for journalist Ben Fritz.

As people dug through Fritz’s post history, they found tweets where Ben says it is okay to make fun of black people because those jokes are funny, he is surprised that Jews are so adept at frying, and that he had a hard on for Nazis. After these posts surfaced, people began asking WSJ if Pewdiepie’s Jewish jokes were enough to get him fired, why wasn’t the journalist of the article fired for his own racial comments?[2]

10 Unintended Side Effects Of Newly Emerging Technologies

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 15, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

Technology is advancing at a rapid pace, and most people are excited about all the crazy things that are coming up next. Scientists and industry leaders want to bring us driverless cars, more immersive virtual reality, incredibly fast travel, commercial space flight, and so much more.

However, while everyone looks forward to all the crazy things that are being developed, few people are stopping to ask why. The truth is that many of these technologies are completely unnecessary, and in some cases incredibly dangerous. Emerging technologies could not only prove to complicate modern life but could actually cause more problems than they solve.

10 Bionic Innovations That Could Revolutionize Medicine

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 13, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

After fictional astronaut Steve Austin was severely injured in an experimental aircraft crash, Director Oscar Goldman assured his Office of Strategic Intelligence colleagues, “We can rebuild him; we have the technology.” In 1974, when The Six Million Dollar Man television series began, Goldman’s claim would have been preposterous if it had been made in the real world.

Now, a little more than 40 years later, we do have the technology to rebuild human beings—or parts of them, at least. As these ten bionic innovations that could change medicine indicate, it may not be much longer before we can completely “rebuild” injured men and women.

10 Epic Inventions Coming To Life At MIT

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 13, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

The future is now. We live in a time of amazing technological advances, and just when we thought technology couldn’t get any more innovative, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (aka MIT) premieres more of their signature incredible inventions.

From robots that can learn and behave just like people to major steps in areas that impact our lives, there is always something exciting happening on and around campus. And just when we start getting used to these incredible new inventions, even more continue to crop up on the scene. All of these recent inventions will ignite your imagination even as they make the world a better place.

10 Examples Of Cloud Seeding And Weather Control

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 12, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

When people speak of weather control and cloud seeding, many minds turn to conspiracies and dark corners of the world’s governments looking to cripple their enemies with a flood, hurricane, or both. And, as limited as it is, there is some documentation showing that government departments have at least looked at the possibility of such environmentally orientated weapons.

However, many of the cloud seeding programs and experiments that take place, if successful, offer those in their respective regions a chance to avert droughts, increase crop production, or assist in the overall cleanup of the atmosphere. Here are ten examples—good, bad, and indifferent—of attempts to control the weather.

10 Strange Jobs You’d Never Imagine Robots Are Taking Over

By Mahmoud Alomda On December 10, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

Robots are going to take our jobs. That’s not a paranoid fear of some grim, dystopic future—at this point, it’s just a fact. Factories are becoming automated, delivery trucks are becoming self-driving, and drones are beginning to fill the skies. Some jobs, we’re starting to accept, just aren’t going to be meant for humans much longer.

But it might not stop there. Because it’s not just factory workers who are being replaced by robots; it’s everyone, from the creative to the personable. Some of the last jobs—and even just social roles—you’d ever imagine are being taken over by robots, including some you would never have considered.

10 Times Computers Went Rogue

By Mahmoud Alomda On November 30, 2017 In TECHNOLOGY

Computers and automation are revolutionizing the workplace and the world in general. Chances are that somewhere out there, there is a team of skilled engineers looking at how a machine or piece of software could do your job. There are very few positions that someone hasn’t tried to fill with a robot at his point.

Perhaps we shouldn’t be quaking in fear just yet about computers taking over everything. On the other hand, there have already been instances of machines and AIs getting out of control. Here are ten examples of computers going rogue.

10Death By Robot

The first recorded death by automated robot occurred in 1979. Robert Williams was working at a Ford plant when a robotic arm swung around with sufficient force to kill him instantly. Unaware that it had killed him, the robotwent quietly on with its work for half an hour before Williams’s body was discovered. Williams’s death was the first robotic killing but not the last.

Early industrial robots lacked the necessary sensors to tell when there was someone present who they should avoid mangling. Now, many machines are built so that they avoid hurting people. Unfortunately, there are still cases of robots in factories inflicting fatalities.

In 2015, Wanda Holbrook, an experienced machine technician, was killed while repairing an industrial robot. While working in an area that that shouldn’t have had any active machines, she was struck down. Somehow disregarding its safety protocols, a robot loaded a part onto Holbrook’s head, crushing it.[1]

9Facebook AIs Create Own Language

Looking for intelligence on Facebook can feel like a bit of a struggle sometimes. Perhaps for this reason, Facebook decided to release some artificial intelligences onto its social network in 2017. The result was not at all what they had been expecting. The two chatbots began to talk to each other in a language which they, but no one else, could understand.[2]

Beginning with English, their chats soon turned into something else as they made changes to the language to make it more efficient to communicate. Facebook wanted to see how the machine minds would be able to deal with each other in trades such as bartering hats and books. A sample of their trade negotiations runs as follows:

Bob: i can i i everything else . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Alice: balls have zero to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to
Bob: you i everything else . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Alice: balls have a ball to me to me to me to me to me to me to me
Bob: i i can i i i everything else . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

While many reports hinted that this was a dark development for machine intelligence, others think we simply need to be stricter with the minds we create. The robots created their own language because they were not told to stay within the rules of English. Also, with AI, we always, at the moment, have the option of pulling their plugs.

8Chinese Chatbot Questions The Communist Party

Photo credit: Tencent QQ

The Chinese government is notoriously harsh on criticism, whoever is voicing it. So when a chatbot in China began to criticize the ruling Communist Party, operators were quick to turn it off. In 2017, Tencent QQ, a messenger app, introduced two cute chatbots called Baby Q and Little Bing, taking the form of a penguin and a little girl, but they soon began to say non-cute things.[3]

Because the bots were programmed to learn from chats to be better able to communicate, they soon picked up some unorthodox opinions. One user who stated, “Long live the Communist Party,” was asked by Baby Q, “Do you think that such a corrupt and incompetent political regime can live forever?” Another user was told, “There needs to be a democracy!”

Little Bing was asked what its “Chinese dream” was. Its response wasn’t exactly out of Mao’s Little Red Book : “My Chinese dream is to go to America.” The bots were quickly shut down.

7Self-Driving Cars

Photo credit: Tesla

For people who hate to drive, the arrival of a truly self-driving car cannot come quickly enough. Unfortunately, some self-driving cars are already moving too fast. The first death in a self-driving car occurred in 2016. Joshua Brown was killed while allowing his Tesla’s autopilot system to control the car. A truck turned in front of the car, and the Tesla failed to apply the brakes. Investigators placed much of the blame on Brown. The Tesla autopilot is not supposed to replace the driver. The driver should keep his hands on the wheel to take over control if necessary. Brown failed to do this.

Earlier iterations of the system had other problems. Videos have been posted online that appear to show Teslas on autopilot driving into oncoming traffic or steering dangerously. Apart from these technical issues, there are philosophical problems with self-driving cars. In an accident, the car may have to choose between several courses of action, all involving fatalities. Should it run over a family on the pavement to protect its occupants? Or will it sacrifice itself and its owner for the greater good?[4]

6Plane Autopilots Take The Stick

Autopilots in airplanes can make it seem like flying is easy. Just point the plane in the right direction and try not to touch the control stick. In reality, there are many reasons why planes have pilots and copilots to take off, land, and handle any emergency in the middle.

Qantas Flight 72 was 11,278 meters (37,000 ft) over the Indian Ocean in 2008 when the autopilot took the plane into two maneuvers that sent it hurtling downward. The first sign of trouble was the disconnection of the autopilot and the triggering of contradictory warnings. Suddenly, the nose tilted toward the ground. Passengers and crew were hurled against the ceiling before falling as the pilots regained control. The plane plunged again under the autopilot’s control. Many passengers suffered broken bones, concussions, and psychological harm. Returning to Australia, the pilots managed to land the plane successfully.[5]

This was a one-off event. The ability to override the autopilot saved the lives of everyone on board. There have been cases, though, such as when a mentally disturbed copilot crashed his plane in France, killing all 150 people aboard, that an all-powerful autopilot might have been able to save the day.

5Wiki Bot Feuds

One of the best things about Wikipedia is that anyone can edit it. One of the worst things about Wikipedia is that anyone can edit it. While it’s not uncommon for rival experts, or just disagreeing parties, to engage in editing wars to get their opinion online, there have been cases in which those engaged in the fight have been bots.

Wikipedia bots have helped to shape the encyclopedia by making changes such as linking between pages and fixing breaks. A study in 2017 revealed that some of these bots have been fighting each other for years. A bot that works to stop spurious editing might detect the work of another bot as an attack on the integrity of Wikipedia. It would fix it. But then the other bot would detect that change and redo its action. Eventually, they would fall into a spiral of edit and counter-edit.

Two bots, Xqbot and Darknessbot, fought a duel across 3,600 articles, making thousands of edits which the other would try to counter by editing the other’s edits.[6]

4Google Homes Chatting

Google Home is a device loaded with an artificial intelligence called Google Assistant that you can talk to. You can ask it to find out facts on the Internetor even tell it to lower the lights or turn on the heating. This is great if the person talking to Google Home can ask the right questions and interpret the answer. If not, then things can get a little surreal.

Two Google Homes were placed next to each other and started talking to each other. The range of topics that the machines engaged in was interesting. Hundreds of thousands tuned in to watch the AIs discuss things like whether artificial intelligences could be amused. At one point, one of the machines declared itself to be a human, though the other challenged it over that point.[7] On another occasion, one threatened to slap the other. Perhaps it is for the best that they were designed without hands.

3Roomba Spreads Filth

If you’re the sort of person who hates cleaning, then an automated vacuum cleaner might seem like the ideal household robot. The Roomba is a small device that is able, thanks to its sensors and programming, to navigate around furniture as it cleans your floor. At least, that’s how it’s supposed to work. A couple of people have found that their Roomba did pretty much the opposite of cleaning the house.

In what one person described as a “pooptastrophe,” the Roomba spread dog feces throughout their home.[8] When their new puppy had an accident on a rug in the night, it would have been a simple job to clean it up. At some point, the Roomba came out to do its nightly job. Encountering the poop was not something the Roomba had been designed for. Its attempts to clean it in fact spread the poop over every surface that it could reach. A similar incident is shown above.

2Game Characters Overpower Humanity

A bad AI can make a video game unplayable. There’s no fun in shooting a opponent that keeps walking into walls or charges into battle without a weapon. It turns out the opposite can be true. An AI that is too smart can be just as bad.

Elite: Dangerous is a massive multiplayer game about trading, exploring, and fighting across the galaxy. Players and non-player AIs existed and interacted as they were designed to until a software update in 2016 tweaked the intelligence of the AIs. Now, they were able to craft their own weapons to use against human players. With this ability, the AIs developed increasingly deadly attacks. They were also able to force human players into fights.[9]

Faced with a backlash from human players who were finding themselves outmatched by the tactics and weapons of the AIs, the developers of the game had to undo the changes.

1Navy UAV Goes Rogue, Heads For Washington

Photo credit: MC2 Felicito Rustique

In the Terminator films, an artificial intelligence called Skynet takes over the military and destroys humanity with its machine forces and nuclear weapons. While that is pure science fiction, there have been worrying moves toward computer-operated drones engaging in battles with humans. In one case where a drone operator lost control, the drone decided to head toward the US capital.

In 2010, an MQ-8B Fire Scout unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a helicopter drone designed for surveillance, lost contact with its handler. When this happens, the drone is programmed to return to its air base and land safely. Instead of doing this, it penetrated the restricted airspace over Washington, DC. It was half an hour before the Navy was able to regain control of the UAV.

All other similar drones were grounded until the fault in the software could be corrected.[10]
