Scientists have created an earpiece that gives you an actual chill if the person youre speaking to is an AI impersonating a human. <\/p>\n
The anti-AI AI is worn like a Bluetooth headset and uses a set of algorithms to warn you if the voice youre listening to isnt human. The algorithms are similar to the ones that allow a computer to sound like a human in the first place. <\/p>\n
When the device detects synthesized vocal patterns, a small thermoelectric plate will alert you with a cold sensation on the back of your neck. <\/p>\n
So you will literally feel a chill down your spine if the human youre talking to is a robot. <\/p>\n
DT, a research agency in Australia, created the technology as a proof-of-concept in just five days. <\/p>\n
Beyond distinguishing AI from humans, the company emphasizes that the earpiece could help separate real and fake news. <\/p>\n
The post-truth era is just getting started, the company wrote in a blog post. The media, giant tech corporations and citizens already struggle to discern fact from fiction. And as this technology is democratized, it will be even more prevalent. <\/p>\n
To demonstrate how it works, DT included a video in the post that used the technology on a video of Donald Trump and an AI-generated voice that sounded like him. The device correctly identified the real Donald Trump as human and the recording as robot. <\/p>\n
The company wrote that the device is a work in progress, and likely has a long way to go. Lets hope it becomes available before were all tricked into servitude by an army of human-sounding AIs. <\/p>\n
