Nell'era in cui Internet ha reso accessibili a chiunque una quantità pressoché infinita di dati e informazioni, svelare segreti, anticipare mosse di persone o intere organizzazioni, condurre investigazioni private o analisi di mercato sono diventate pratiche non solo comuni, ma facilmente realizzabili da chiunque abbia le capacità e gli strumenti adatti. Tutto questo attraverso l'Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), la disciplina che trasforma in attività di Intelligence la miriade di informazioni pubbliche che ogni giorno lasciamo online. Ma cos'è precisamente questa disciplina? Come funziona e a cosa serve? Quali sono i benefici, ma anche i pericoli che comporta? In questa puntata esploriamo il mondo dell'Intelligence nell'era dei dati aperti.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo dell'installazione delle prime telecamere di riconoscimento facciale live permanenti nel Regno Unito, di un innovativo ponte neurale sviluppato in Cina per le lesioni spinali e del nuovo generatore di immagini di OpenAI che sostituirà DALL-E in ChatGPT.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione01:01 - Londra installa telecamere di riconoscimento facciale (BiometricUpdate.com, Davide Fasoli)02:17 - Il ponte neurale cinese per le lesioni spinali (DDay.it, Matteo Gallo)03:44 - Il nuovo generatore di immagini di OpenAI (OpenAI.com, Luca Martinelli)05:32 - L'Open Source Intelligence nell'era digitale (Luca Martinelli)16:05 - Conclusione--Contatti--• www.dentrolatecnologia.it• Instagram (@dentrolatecnologia)• Telegram (@dentrolatecnologia)• YouTube (@dentrolatecnologia)• redazione@dentrolatecnologia.it--Brani--• Ecstasy by Rabbit Theft• Found You by Time To Talk, Avaya & RYVM

Hello and welcome.My name is Thomas Domville, also known as AnonyMouse.I'm going to introduce you to an app called 11 Labs Reader, and it's spelled just as it sounds like.So 11 Labs is one word, E-L-E-V-E-N-L-A-B-S, 11 Labs, space, reader.This is an amazing app that you definitely want to check out if there's something that interests you, of course.So I'm going to do a nice little review and walk through and show you a demonstration how to use 11 Labs Reader.Now before I do that, 11 Labs should sound familiar for most of you out there.If you haven't heard of 11 Labs, no problem.11 Labs has been around for some time now, and what they're known for is being able to take any text and convert it into audio for you to listen.It's incredible technology.It sounds marvelous, and it's trying to do its best to sound as natural as possible.And I personally think they're getting really close to that moment where we will be able to say, wow, this is definitely a hit on their hands.And I think this app is no doubt going to be something that's going to be popular by some of you out there.Now I have used other apps.I won't mention those names.They will take various files like text files or probably PDFs or EPUBs and try to read it out using whatever voice over voices that we have now.And as you know, well, for myself, I'm not a big fan of those things.And it's really kind of hard to read books or listen to articles with those voices, especially when I come back in a background where I'm not used to using older voices such as eloquence and such things like that.It just sounds very unnatural, very robotic.So I'm really more into more natural sounding speech.So this is no doubt one of the big app that I definitely going to keep on my main home screen from now on.Now it's saying that there are some quirks and issues with this app.Yeah, for the most part, it is accessible and usable.Now there are some things that if you need to do, it can be difficult.So I won't be pointing that out.But I'm hoping that there's definitely going to be some update to this app and to making things more efficient for voice over users.Overall, I think this app definitely has potential and it definitely is going to be something I'm going to be using a lot.So let's go ahead and…

We introduce VoiceCraft, a token infilling neural codec language model, that achieves state-of-the-art performance on both speech editing and zero-shot text-to-speech (TTS) on audiobooks, internet videos, and podcasts. VoiceCraft employs a Transformer decoder architecture and introduces a token rearrangement procedure that combines causal masking and delayed stacking to enable generation within an existing sequence. On speech editing tasks, VoiceCraft produces edited speech that is nearly indistinguishable from unedited recordings in terms of naturalness, as evaluated by humans; for zero-shot TTS, our model outperforms prior SotA models including VALLE and the popular commercial model XTTS-v2. Crucially, the models are evaluated on challenging and realistic datasets, that consist of diverse accents, speaking styles, recording conditions, and background noise and music, and our model performs consistently well compared to other models and real recordings. In particular, for speech editing evaluation, we introduce a high quality, challenging, and realistic dataset named RealEdit. We encourage readers to listen to the demos at https://jasonppy.github.io/VoiceCraft_web. 2024: Puyuan Peng, Po-Yao Huang, Daniel Li, Abdelrahman Mohamed, David F.

What's it like seeking love within AI? How web crawlers are suddenly controversial with the rise of AI. Are Meta's Ray-Ban Smart Glasses better than the Apple Vision Pro for what face computers are capable of now? And Amazon has created the largest text-to-speech model that they claim to exhibit "emergent" qualities to speak sentences more naturally. Emily Dreibelbis of PCMag joins the show to talk with Mikah about the AI "dating scene" AI through ChatGPT Plus and AI boyfriends and her somewhat lackluster experience. Mikah talks about the "robots.txt" file that exists within many if not all, websites and how AI is impacting the use of this file. Victoria Song of The Verge stops by to talk about Meta's and Apple's VR offerings and the differences between the two devices. Finally, Amazon researchers have trained a text-to-speech model that they claim exhibits "emergent" qualities that improve its ability to speak sentences more naturally than other text-to-speech models.

Auditions are the lifeblood of any voice actor. They are the main way we compete and win work in our business. Assuming you're properly trained and competitive, the more auditions you do, the more work you will ultimately book. That's a great thing. But what about bad work? Work that is exploitative, unfair, or downright dishonest? How do you avoid those jobs? The best way to avoid bad work is to not audition for bad work. Today, I'm going to walk you through 7 common audition red flags in voice over. This list is not exhaustive and not complete because the industry is changing all the time, but it is meant to make you aware of the more common voice over audition red flags so that you can avoid them and the bad jobs they lead to.
