Google contractors reportedly targeted homeless people for Pixel 4 facial recognition Posted: 02 Oct 2019 05:46 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge In July, Google admitted it has employees pounding the pavement in a variety of US cities, looking for people willing to sell their facial data for a $5 gift certificate to help improve the Pixel 4's face unlock system. But the New York Daily News reports that a Google contractor may be using some questionable methods to get those facial scans, including targeting groups of homeless people and tricking college students who didn't know they were being recorded. According to several sources who allegedly worked on the project, a contracting agency named Randstad sent teams to Atlanta explicitly to target homeless people and those with dark skin, often without saying they were working for Google, and without letting on that they were... |
The Trump administration wants to start DNA testing immigrants Posted: 02 Oct 2019 05:20 PM PDT Photo by David Peinado/NurPhoto via Getty Images The Department of Homeland Security announced today it plans to begin DNA testing immigrants and entering their information into a criminal database. The proposed regulation could harm hundreds of thousands of people held at immigration detention centers around the country, as reported by The New York Times. The administration is framing the plan as an expansion of a pilot program they ran this summer along the US-Mexico border. There, immigration officials used Rapid DNA technology, which processes DNA samples in about 90 minutes, on people suspected of posing as families in order to avoid long detention stays (children can't be held for more than 20 days). This is particularly troubling as not all families are genetically related —... |
Google will teach you how to use the Pixel 4’s Motion Sense gesture controls with Pokemon Posted: 02 Oct 2019 04:37 PM PDT Image: 9to5Google We've moved beyond a flood of Pixel 4 leaks. Now, it's like the all-encompassing wave that appears when a Pokémon uses Surf. Google seems to have Pokémon on the mind, too, because it apparently plans to help teach you how to use Motion Sense — its Soli-powered motion-sensing technology baked into the Pixel 4 — using a short, adorable Pokémon demo. 9to5Google obtained the demo, which is apparently called Pokémon Wave Hello. It offers instructions for brief interactions with Pikachu, Eevee, and the three starters from the upcoming Pokémon Sword and Shield. The whole thing looks like it can be finished in about two and a half minutes. It's unclear if it's designed as both a Motion Sense demo and a teaser for Sword and Shield, or just the... |
How to choose between the Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 7 Posted: 02 Oct 2019 04:00 PM PDT Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge If you were in the market for a new Microsoft Surface laptop or tablet, the choices used to be relatively simple — Surface Book for a potent laptop with a detachable screen, Surface Pro for a capable tablet with an optional detachable keyboard, or the Surface Laptop or Surface Go if you don't need as much power and don't care as much about tablet or laptop modes. Microsoft just blew all that up by announcing the Surface Pro X and Surface Pro 7 portable 2-in-1s on the very same day — not to mention the Surface Neo dual-screen tablet and Surface Duo folding phone. Seriously, let's not mention those last two again 'cause they aren't shipping until late 2020, but I figured you'd want to know. But let's say you're ready... |
iPhone 11’s Deep Fusion camera is available now in iOS 13 public beta Posted: 02 Oct 2019 02:47 PM PDT Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Deep Fusion, Apple's anticipated computational photography system, is live in the latest iOS 13 public beta. If you're enrolled, iOS 13.2 should be downloadable now after it arrived earlier today for developers. It's available both for the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro. Deep Fusion is designed to use artificial intelligence and other software tricks to improve the sharpness of images by capturing frames of differing exposures and merging them on its own. The goal is to produce the highest-quality image possible. It's supposed to only work for medium to low light scenes, whereas Smart HDR and Night mode handle extremely bright and extremely dark scenes, respectively. Apple marketing chief Phil Schiller calls it "computational photography mad... |
Leaked Pixel 4 marketing videos show new Assistant and Motion Sense features Posted: 02 Oct 2019 02:29 PM PDT Image: Nextrift Some of Google's internal Pixel 4 marketing videos appear to have leaked, showcasing demos for two neat features for the company's flagship Android handset: a revamped Google Assistance experience and the new Motion Sense gesture control system. Google previously confirmed both features publicly, but it stopped short of showing detailed demonstrations working on the Pixel 4. Thankfully, like virtually everything else about the upcoming phone, detailed videos have surfaced on the internet, this time courtesy of 9to5Google. Google says Assistant will be faster and more capable on the Pixel 4, and, indeed, the leaked footage appears to show some of those visual and performance-based changes that were not seen in today's version of the... |
Tesla sets another new delivery record, thanks to the Model 3 Posted: 02 Oct 2019 02:08 PM PDT Photo: Sean O'Kane/The Verge Tesla delivered "approximately 97,000" cars around the world in the third quarter of 2019, slightly edging out the previous record of 95,356 the company set in the second quarter, according to a press release issued on Wednesday. That brings Tesla's delivery total for the year up to around 255,000 vehicles, meaning the company has already shipped more cars in 2019 than it did all of last year. But it also means Tesla needs to set another record in the fourth quarter (and then some) if it wants to reach the low end of the estimate it offered at the beginning of the year, which was that the Silicon Valley automaker would deliver between 360,000 and 400,000 cars in 2019. Tesla is expected to start production at its third Gigafactory in... |
How to auto-delete your YouTube history Posted: 02 Oct 2019 01:22 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Online privacy — or the lack thereof — has become a prominent issue. As a result, more and more services are adding features that speak to their users' privacy concerns. If you're a YouTube viewer (and who isn't these days?), one of these concerns is probably your viewing history, which can tell marketers and other third parties more about you than you probably want them to know. One way to prevent that type of intrusion is to delete that history. While you could previously delete your history manually (see below), Google has recently made the process automatic so you no longer have to remind yourself to perform the task regularly. To set your YouTube account to automatically delete your history:

The Surface Pro X is Microsoft’s answer to the iPad Pro Posted: 02 Oct 2019 12:38 PM PDT Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Stop me if you've heard this one before: there's a new tablet powered by a souped-up mobile processor, with a detachable keyboard and a magnetic stylus. It promises way better battery life than a laptop and runs most of the same apps, with LTE support to always keep you connected, although the size and weight come at the expense of things like a headphone jack. In short, it promises to be that mythical holy grail that can bridge the gap between a phone and a full-fledged laptop. I'm talking, of course, about Microsoft's newly announced Surface Pro X. Or is it Apple's iPad Pro? But while the two devices sound similar in concept, they represent two very different ideas of what this category of device should be. The iPad Pro is an iOS... |
Laurene Powell Jobs’ latest charity: going to dinner with Ben Affleck Posted: 02 Oct 2019 12:27 PM PDT Noted philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, who — through her foundation, Emerson Collective — owns The Atlantic and California Sunday, appears to have engaged in a new act of charity: taking Ben Affleck to dinner. The Daily Mail reports that Affleck and Powell Jobs arrived and departed separately to a three-hour dinner at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California. The 47-year-old actor, who has had such career turns as the worst incarnation of Batman, has been going through a rough patch. For instance, after his divorce from actress Jennifer Garner, he briefly dated the family's nanny. He also got a giant phoenix tattooed on his back, then lied about it. Powell Jobs, 55, is known primarily for her philanthropy. Emerson Collective... |
