Ray-Ban are being enhanced with AI-driven visual search capabilities

The Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses are set for significant upgrades, enhancing the capabilities of the social network’s AI assistant. This update introduces real-time information support to the assistant, beginning with tests on new “multimodal” features. These features enable the AI to respond to questions based on the wearer’s surroundings. Previously, Meta AI had a knowledge limit up to December 2022, restricting its ability to provide current event updates or live data like sports scores, traffic updates, or other on-the-go information. However, Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth has announced a change. All Meta smart glasses in the U.S. will now have access to real-time information, partially enabled by Bing. The upcoming “multimodal AI” feature, initially showcased at Connect, is particularly notable. It allows the AI to answer contextual questions based on what the wearer sees through the glasses. This enhancement aims to make Meta AI more practical and less of a novelty, addres

Ethical Capital Partners, a private equity firm based in Ottawa, announced its acquisition of MindGeek, the parent company of the widely known pornography website Pornhub. The purchase amount remains undisclosed. MindGeek, based in Montreal, ranks among the top dozen most visited websites globally, surpassing platforms like Amazon, Netflix, and TikTok. The company recently faced significant controversies, including allegations of sexual exploitation on Pornhub, highlighted in a New York Times opinion piece. This controversy led Pornhub to remove millions of videos and resulted in Visa and MasterCard ending their association with the site. It also prompted an inquiry by the Canadian Parliament. The Canadian government has been exploring measures to address harmful online materials, with discussions and roundtables held since 2021, although no specific legislation has been introduced yet. Ethical Capital Partners was founded in 2021 by Rocco Meliambro, a cannabis entrepreneur

UK to Implement Age Verification Measures for Pornography Websites

Image
New legislation announced by the British Government will require pornography websites serving the UK to verify the age of their users. Set to be enforced by April 2018, these measures are part of the broader Digital Economy Act. The new law mandates that anyone in the UK wishing to access online pornography must demonstrate that they are an adult. Porn sites will be expected to implement age-verification technology similar to that used by gambling sites. Failure to comply could result in substantial fines. Will Gardner, CEO of the internet safety charity Childnet, supports the move, highlighting its importance in shielding young people from potentially harmful content. A study in 2016 by the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) found that nearly half of 11- to 16-year-olds surveyed had viewed online pornography, underscoring the need for such measures. The Digital Economy Act also aims to tackle other digital issues, such as the use of internet

Pornhub Encourages Women to Explore Careers in STEM Fields

Pornhub, renowned for its adult entertainment content, is offering a $25,000 scholarship to support a woman pursuing a STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) education. Corey Price, the vice president of Pornhub, explained in an email to CNBC the company’s commitment to addressing the gender disparity in these fields. Women, while nearly half of the overall workforce, are significantly underrepresented in various STEM careers, according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data. For instance, women comprise only 39 percent of chemists and material scientists, 28 percent of environmental scientists and geoscientists, and notably less in engineering fields. The scholarship is part of the Pornhub Cares initiative, now in its second year. It’s important to note that this scholarship is open to those outside the adult entertainment industry. Price emphasizes that this initiative is a way for Pornhub to contribute positively to its community and fan base, aligning with its p

Experiencing one’s first intimate encounter is a significant event, and this was particularly true for a man who recently lost his virginity at the age of 40. In the UK, the typical age for this milestone is 17, but this Reddit user, known as GuaranteeThin4918, waited well beyond this average age. He took to Reddit to discuss his experience and the reasons behind his prolonged wait. In a Reddit thread, he invited others to ask him anything about his experience, indicating that he had a positive and comfortable first time. He also delved into the reasons behind his delay, citing no religious or cultural influences. He described his life as somewhat monotonous, similar to Ed Norton’s character in “Fight Club,” and noted the lack of a stable social circle and being overworked as contributing factors. When asked why he didn’t simply pay for a sexual encounter earlier in life, he expressed that it felt like cheating and went against his personal values. He wanted the exper

Grand Theft Auto 6, possibly the most eagerly awaited video game in recent history, has been a decade in the making. Fans have long clamored for a new chapter, not just updates to GTA 5. Rockstar, the game’s developer and publisher, has been diligently crafting a game that meets the immense expectations. There’s still no official release date, but rumors have sparked a heated debate among gamers. According to Dexerto, the price for GTA 6 might be set at an astonishing $150, almost $100 more than its predecessor. This news has left many fans in disbelief, with some humorously commenting that they might need to start saving now or that the game should offer teleportation abilities at such a price. Amidst the shock, some are skeptical about these rumors. Comparisons are being drawn to the pricing of GTA V, which was originally $59.99, with special editions ranging up to $150. This leads to speculation that the rumored $150 price tag for GTA 6 might be for a special edition r
