OpenAI DALL-E Image Generator; Human Face Editing Made Easy

OpenAI's DALL-E Image
OpenAI's DALL-E Image

Face is mirror of your soul is what experts have said and indeed, it has proven to be true on many occasions, if not all. Anyone can guess what is going on in your mind or in your heart by looking at your face but there are many people that are experts in hiding their true personality with their acting skills for which having an expressive face is important.

There are many folks that are obsessed with their face and looking good for which they are willing to go to any extent and spend any moment as long as they get the fruits of their investment.

Nowadays there are many ways to enhance your features via Botox, Facial, many other surgeries that one can think of. The sheer number of celebrities that are willing to go under the knife, despite potentially disastrous consequences, for getting stunning facial features is quite huge.

Brief Summary

Nowadays, people rely on Artificial Intelligence (AI) generators for editing their faces online, which is considered a foolproof way to alter the images completely according to the individual.

AI image generators are becoming more and more popular since the past few years with many examples that have outperformed their counterparts in terms of editing capabilities like OpenAI DALL-E.

DALL-E was once considered a privacy hazard but has slowly overcome the matter and evolved into a proverbial tool for editing human faces, which has been officially stamped on OpenAI where images can be altered easily.

The mere prospect of editing images with faces is not something that is practiced very often but OpenAI, via DALL-E, wants to provide users the liberty to edit pictures as they feel like due to the immense demand for such things for many years.

Many people constantly complain about the background scenes, outfits, and other problems in their images that they feel spoils their picture altogether, which is why OpenAI decided to sort out this issue once and for all.

With the help of DALL-E, which was launched in January 2021, users can now change outfits, edit background scenes, and other things but due to the immense risk of AI being misused by unscrupulous elements, the feature has been kept in limits so as to prevent any such catastrophe from happening.

Due to the AI security being breached a number of times, OpenAI has come out with massive improvements in their security system so that DALL-E will sort thing out and support human face editing with excellent filters.

There is a tendency among many users to generate content that is violent, sexual, and political that can lead to disastrous consequences but due to the new filters, which OpenAI claims to be of highly robust nature, such things can be prevented from happening and nipped in the bud itself.

Furthermore, OpenAI have confirmed that they have a policy due to which users cannot upload images of anyone without their consent, which was tested by using random celebrities’ names so that their images appeared with their face but due to the filters, nothing of the sort happened.

If you want to test Dall-E’s features, you can, for example, upload your own image where your eyes are covered following which you need to ask DALL-E to edit the face, features, clothes, or anything of your choice and see the results for yourself.

OpenAI DALL-E

Once users get the AI tool, it can be used even further while people that want to gain access to it can do so by visiting the official website of OpenAI where you can learn about the procedures in detail.

Conclusion

All said and done, there are many folks that consider photo editing with faces as a violation of privacy as many have expressed skepticism on whether it is the right thing to do or not but, come to think of it, there is a sizeable portion of youngsters that are willing to do anything for fame with stripping being at the very least.

Microsoft, Apple, Google in Soup; Mozilla Challenges Golden Trinity?

0
Golden Trinity
Mozilla

Microsoft, Apple, and Google are three of the most powerful tech giants in the world with no peer to match them by a thousand miles at least. It won’t be an exaggeration to call them the golden trinity of the tech world, similar to the Brahma-Vishnu-Mahesh trio.

Over the years, they have rolled out with some of the best electronic gadgets and devices known to mankind be it smartphones, smartwatches, laptops, along with many others where people wait with excitement and anticipation as to what they will come out with next

There is a big reason as to why they’re where they’re at, which is right at the top and to sustain yourself at the coveted position for so long deserves all the accolades that can be given to them but things don’t always turn out as smooth as one imagines in such a perilous journey.

However, when you’re at the height and stature as the golden trinity mentioned above, to sustain the top position for a longer period, while not difficult, is no easy job as one has to encounter brickbats, envy, criticism, and many other hurdles.

In Brief

Mozilla, developer of Firefox Internet Browser, has hit out at the three tech giants that their operating systems make it difficult for Firefox and similar browsers to be opened and operated on self-controlled platforms.

Mozilla

Mozilla has alleged that their operation systems are such that users are not able to switch browsers easily while sometimes it is impossible to make even that happen by setting the company’s own browser as the default one on the home screen, which also occupies primary position.

Mozilla has its own Gecko browsing engine that the makers hope to use for investing and developing their own solutions, which is important as Apple, Google, and Mozilla are the only three main browser engine providers that we have today.

The problem is that Apple’s engine runs solely on Apple devices and if Mozilla is taken out of the equation, Google remains the sole cross-platform browser engine, which is a matter of serious concern as it creates concentration of power and a single point of failure.

The market share for Mozilla Firefox Browser was 3.16% worldwide for August 2022 while those of Microsoft Edge and Apple Safari are at 4.3% and 18.78%, respectively while the Google Chrome browser is head and shoulders above all at a whopping 65.52% as per reliable web traffic analysis.

Mozilla has further claimed that all three big tech giants have failed to deliver on the operating system issue as lawmakers and policymakers have invested money, time, and energy, and resources wisely on investing digital markets.

The Firefox developer opines that every tech giant should be aware of the browser competition that is prevalent in such a field and has to work things out to maintain the good position so as to prevent any further harm from befalling loyal customers due to competitive stagnation and consistent inaction.

Conclusion

Mozilla has called upon Microsoft, Google, and Apple to work out a solution like enforcing the preexistent laws along with the upcoming, laws, rules, and regulations that will soon come into play.

Pixel 6a

Google Pixel

Google’s new design language, debuted with the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, is also available on the company’s first cheap handset, the Pixel 6a.

It has a distinctive dual-tone design, with a horizontal camera bar at the back that houses the two cameras and an LED flash.

Previously located on the left of the screen, the front-facing camera is now at the top center of the display.

New hues like sage, charcoal, and chalk are available for the phone, setting it apart from the standard Pixel 6 lineup.

Fast charging may no longer be a unique selling point, but it’s still nice to have if you can.

With its USB Type-C 3.1 connector, the Pixel 6a is compatible with rapid charging up to 18W. This is achieved using USB Power Delivery 3.0.

It seems that smartphone screen sizes are steadily growing. But the Pixel 6a doesn’t cut.

The phone has an ultra-narrow bezel OLED HDR display with a resolution of 1080p. That has one significant benefit: a higher pixel density per unit area. Plus, it’s as cheap as can be, which is to say, incredibly cheap.

In case the 6.34-inch screen size of the Pixel 5a was too much for you, the smaller-screened 6a may be more to your liking. It’s interesting to note that the screen size matches that of Apple’s iPhone 13. It weighs just 0.14 ounces more than the cheapest iPhone 13.

Actual price: Rs 43,999

Deal price: Rs 27,949

But with the new feature, users can now create stories for up to 60 seconds continuously instead of being divided into a 15 second story. This will save users the trouble of tapping through a long video they’re not interested in seeing and go straight to others.

Us Government Allows Tech Companies To Get Iranians Internet Access After Internet Ban In Iran

Internet Ban In Iran

The Iranian government has witnessed an exponential rise in the number of protests over the past few days. The citizens of Iran are protesting due to women’s safety issues, economic recessions, freedom of speech and choice.

Still, the protest took a violent turn resulting in the death of 6 people. Also, the government of Iran has shut down the internet facility in the country due to the protests.

All the protests started after the death of a 22-year-old girl  Mahsa Amini in police custody who was there because she was not wearing a Hijab correctly. Police said she passed away due to a heart attack, but her family said Amini didn’t have any heart-related disease.

To help Iran’s people, the US government has entered the game by permitting their tech giants to allow Iranians internet access. This was officially revealed by the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Friday.

Blinken said that the government of Iran is afraid of its citizens and added further that they would help the 80 million people of Iran to have internet access so that they can be in contact with other countries.

How the US is helping Iranians

The US government has allowed its tech companies to support Iranians; in the list, many social media platforms, collaboration platforms, video conferencing, and cloud-based service providers are present that will aid the Iranian population digitally.

The US government will provide Virtual Private Network (VPN) software, anti-malware software, and anti-tracking software to Iranian people so that they can access the internet freely and securely too.

The US government will also deliver additional authorisation to the services that are provided to Iranians so that the Iranian population would resist the internet laws that are imposed on them.

Also, the Us government will proceed in providing anti-censorship tools with some mobile operating systems so that the people of Iran would express themselves freely without the fear of the country’s cruel government.

Internet Ban In Iran

The softwares that require some personal information as a part of verification will not demand the data now to ensure the safety of Iranians from their government.

In the past, WhatsApp also helped the population of Iran in conversing with each other and to spread important news.

Signal, a messaging app, also said that they would set up a proxy server so that Iranians stay connected with their network and can communicate with each other.

Many other repressive tools are even provided to the population so that if more strict internet laws emerge in Iran, then the people have the option to communicate and would fight against their regime.

Elon Musk also confirmed that his company Starlink would provide its services to the people of Iran and dedicate its satellite to the country. Musk even helped Ukraine in the war against Russia.

Yet officials say that the internet ban is not dangerous as it was in 2019, when more than 1500 people were killed in only two weeks, but officials also say that it is not the correct time to judge the future of protests.

Some political experts are even citing that they are seeing a new future of Iran that can be a democratic country with equal rights for everyone.

Final Words

Protests in Iran are getting apprised again after some years, and now they are due to the death of Mahsa Amini, who was arrested for not wearing a Hijab correctly and then passed away in police custody.

Seeing the protests, the government of Iran shut down the internet of the country and then the US came to help the people of Iran, allowing their tech companies to help Iranians get internet access.
