What just happened? Following the announcement of the feature last year, Filmmaker Mode, which automatically disables any post-processing a TV may have, is coming to more manufacturers’ sets. Joining LG, Panasonic, and Vizio in supporting the mode will be Samsung, Philips/TP Vision, and Kaleidescape. Filmmaker Mode was originally announced last August by the UHD Alliance. It’s intended to provide a more cinematic experience on 4K and 8K TVs, which often have motion smoothing, or whatever the manufacturer decides to call it, enabled by default. Motion smoothing, which has been criticized by many within the film industry, involves the creation of artificial frames that are inserted between real frames to make action scenes look more fluid and counter motion blur. While this can improve certain content such as sports, it looks strange on 24fps movies, leading to what’s called the soap opera effect. Tom Cruise and Mission: Impossible - Fallout director Christopher McQuarrie are just two of the industry names who have spoken out against motion smoothing. Variety writes that Filmmaker Mode, which also disables post-processing systems such as noise reduction and sharpening, will be part of every new 4K and 8K TV that LG introduces in 2020, while Panasonic said its 2020 OLED HD 2000 series will support the mode. No word yet on which Samsung, TP Vision, and Kaleidescape TVs will have the feature. While more companies are joining the initiative, Sony and TCL have been conspicuously quiet about embracing Filmmaker Mode. The UHD Alliance wants Filmmaker Mode enabled by default, and it’s also standardizing the mode across TVs to make it easy to find in the menus. Rob, T. (2020, January 8).

In context: Facebook is stirring more controversy around its content policies with new changes that focus on fake videos created using artificial intelligence. At the same time, misleading content created using other techniques will only be marked as "false" and prevented from going viral through the news feed. It's no secret that Facebook is under pressure due to its controversial stance on political ads and its general policies on what content needs to go through fact-checking filters. The social giant recently announced that it will ban deepfakes on its platform as a way to prevent them from interfering with the public perception on candidates of the 2020 presidential election campaign. The policy change was first reported by the Washington Post and confirmed by Facebook on Monday night. The decision means Facebook will begin removing all content that has been mani[CENSORED]ted "in ways that aren't apparent to an average person" such as through machine learning techniques, which have proven quite adept in the recent past. And while deepfakes aren't as widespread as other types of mani[CENSORED]ted content, the scale of Facebook's platform can be used to weaponize attacks on a politician's image through content that has been edited in a way that makes people think an official said something they didn't actually say. The obvious problem with the policy is that it doesn't extend to content that is parody or satire, according to Facebook's Monika Bickert. That's also true for "video that has been edited solely to omit or change the order of words." The Washington Post notes that misleading videos that are created using conventional editing methods could slip through the cracks, offering the notable example of a viral video where House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's voice was altered using readily available software. On the other hand, a video that doesn't meet the new criteria for removal but violates the other Community Standards like hate speech and graphic violence can still get the boot from Facebook. The company says it doesn't want to make a stricter policy where it removes all mani[CENSORED]ted videos flagged by its fact-checking filters or one of its 50 worldwide partners that comb through content in over 40 languages. Instead, the social giant will mark some of that content as false and control its visibility in the News Feed so that people can see things in context. The approach isn't ideal, but Facebook thinks it's a good compromise since false videos would still get uploaded on other platforms, which may or may not provide any clues about their authenticity. Back in September 2019, Facebook partnered with Microsoft and several universities to create better open-source tools for detecting deepfakes as part of the Deep Fake Detection Challenge. The company poured $10 million towards research grants, hoping to encourage experts to contribute their ideas and spearhead development. Adrian, P. (2020, January 7). Facebook will ban deepfakes, but many fake videos can still fall through the cracks. Retrieved from https://www.techspot.com/news/83439-facebook-ban-deepfakes-but-many-fake-videos-can.html

In context: Folding-screen devices are all the rage nowadays, and it isn't hard to see why. Many such gadgets aim to strike a balance between traditional smartphone, tablet, or even laptop form factors by allowing users to switch between them at will. Samsung hopped on board this train with its controversial Galaxy Fold smartphone, and Lenovo followed suit with the announcement of its ThinkPad X1 Fold last year. Unfortunately, Lenovo wasn't willing to shed much light on the X1 Fold's hardware specifications or unique features in its initial reveal. We got a glimpse of its overall design, and we knew that it would come in at about 13.3", but that was pretty much it. That changed with the ThinkPad X1 Fold's CES 2020 showcase today. At the event, Lenovo revealed the device's price tag, release window, unique features, OS info, and more. Before we get into that, a brief recap for those who aren't up-to-date on the X1 Fold's progress: the device is, according to Lenovo, the world's first fully-functional folding PC with an OLED display. As you'd expect given the name, the X1 Fold can morph between a fully-flat, tablet-like device and what is essentially a mini laptop (and various other shapes in between). Which mode you might benefit from the most will likely vary over time. There may be scenarios where you'll prefer the extra space that full-screen use offers, but other situations might demand a folded, dual-screen approach. No matter what form factor you prefer, the X1 Fold will ship with its own stylus for note-taking, doodling, or even full-on digital art. Some of the use cases for a folding display include, say, watching a lecture on one "screen" while taking notes on the other, or folding the device slightly to read a few chapters of your favorite novel like a traditional book. In the business world, you could even participate in a video call with the top half of the device, and manage a presentation in the bottom -- it's up to you, Lenovo says. The X1 will release with optional 5G connectivity and a full version of Windows 10 -- there's a reason Lenovo is calling this the first "fully functional PC with a folding OLED display." Support for Windows 10X will likely arrive at a later date, for an "enhanced" foldable experience. The X1 Fold is made up of carbon fiber, "lightweight alloys," and a "luxurious" leather cover, all of which should make the gadget pretty sturdy (though we still don't recommend dropping it). The cover also gives it a notebook-like aesthetic, which was probably intentional on Lenovo's part. In terms of specs, Lenovo is continuing to remain surprisingly tight-lipped. We know it will run on Intel processors with the chipmaker's Hybrid Technology, but specific CPU models, storage and RAM configurations, and even the X1's screen resolution are still up in the air. The device is not available for pre-order yet, but when it is, you'll need to shell out a whopping $2,499 to grab one. For that price, we certainly hope the specifications don't disappoint -- it's a bit unlikely that the X1 Fold's form factor alone will be enough to justify such a high price tag. Cohen, C.

In brief: An issue with the integration between Google's Nest Hub and Xiaomi's Miija smart camera can apparently lead to someone seeing the camera feeds from a different home that uses the same setup. The two companies are currently working to solve the issue, but this is a new reminder that the convenience of the smart home can come at the cost of security and privacy. As we accumulate smart devices in our increasingly digital lives, it's easy to lose track of the many security and privacy risks they pose. Some people are entrenched in one of the larger ecosystems from the likes of Google and Samsung, but more often than not there are homes with a mix of devices from different vendors, which is an additional source of problems. Recently, Reddit user Dio-V found a peculiar image displayed by his Google Nest Hub, which was supposed to show a live feed from a Xiaomi Miija camera. On closer inspection, the image appeared to originate from various random homes that were using the same setup. This has prompted Google to disable the integration between Xiaomi devices and Google Home and Google Nest while it's working on a fix for the issue. Xiaomi told Engadget that it is aware of the problem, which it described as a caching issue. The good news is that only 1,044 users could have been affected, and the company explained that the exact conditions to trigger the reception of stills from random cameras could've been met in just a handful of cases. Those of you who own such a setup might also be pleased to know the issue doesn't occur if the camera is linked to the Mi Home app. Apparently, the problem has its roots in a cache update that happened on December 26, 2019, which was supposed to improve the overall streaming quality of the Xiaomi Mi Home Security Camera Basic 1080p models. Xiaomi isn't the only company to deal with such issues on its smart things. Just last month, security camera maker Wyze reported that it accidentally left a database on an insecure server, leaking the details of more than 2.4 million customers. And even Google failed to reveal the presence of a microphone in its Nest Secure system, which unsurprisingly led to a lot of angry customers worried about their privacy. On a more positive note, tech giants like Apple, Amazon and Google, along with the Zigbee Alliance, are scrambling to develop an open-source standard for smart home devices that should make it harder for issues like these to manifest in future products.

In brief: Over the past year or so, we've seen quite a few impressive advancements in the realm of health-related AI technology. Some AIs have proven capable of detecting heart conditions early, or even diagnosing ocular diseases with the accuracy of world-leading doctors. Now, Google is using AI to tackle breast cancer. More specifically, the tech giant is using AI to improve breast cancer detection rates. In a blog post, Google notes that over 55,000 people in the United Kingdom alone are diagnosed with the deadly disease annually, and one in eight American women will likely develop it at some point in their lifetime. These numbers probably won't come as a shock to most of our readers. We've all seen the countless breast cancer awareness campaigns run by non-profits and corporations alike over the years. However, despite how well-known the illness is, it's still remarkably difficult to treat. Your best chance of tackling any sort of cancer usually lies in early detection. In some cases, once the symptoms set in, cancer might already be too advanced to effectively treat. Unfortunately, even early detection isn't foolproof. Indeed, current breast cancer screenings (called "mammograms") reportedly miss about 20 percent of cases. An 80 percent success rate is certainly better than nothing, but it's far from ideal. Google's AI, though, has already proven capable of improving detection rates. To accomplish this feat, Google fed its AI 76,000 "de-identified" mammograms from UK women, and 15,000 from US women. Once the model was trained, it was put to the test in a separate data set, which contained mammograms from over 25,000 UK residents and 3,000 US citizens. During this test, the AI managed to reduce false negatives by 9.4 percent (compared to average detection rates), and false positives by 5.7 percent. Google feels these results show promise, and -- if the tech is used in actual clinical settings -- could help doctors "reduce wait times and stress" for potential cancer patients down the line. Whether or not Google's AI will indeed be put to the test in a real-world setting remains to be seen. There are plenty of hurdles for the AI to clear (both legal and scientific) before that day will come, but we'll keep you updated on the tech moving forward. Cohen, C. (2020, January 2). Google's AI can reportedly detect breast cancer more accurately than medical professionals. Retrieved from https://www.techspot.com/news/83384-google-ai-can-reportedly-detect-breast-cancer-more.html

What just happened? Samsung on Thursday welcomed a new member to its Galaxy Book line. The Galaxy Book Flex α (Alpha) is said to combine the productivity and premium experience of a laptop with the mobility and flexibility of a smartphone. Samsung’s new 2-in-1 is powered by an unspecified 10th Gen Intel Core processor alongside Intel UHD Graphics and your choice of 8GB / 12GB of DDR4 alongside 256GB, 512GB of 1TB of solid state storage. Wi-Fi 6 comes standard, as does 802.11 ax 2x2 and although the system is compatible with Active Pen, you’ll have to shell out extra for the accessory. The highlight of Samsung’s new 2-in-1 is without a doubt the 600 nit QLED display. It measures 13.3 inches diagonally with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 and boasts 100 percent color volume for a “vibrant picture in any lighting.” Other noteworthy features include dual 1.5W stereo speakers, a fingerprint reader for enhanced security, a 720p webcam with dual array digital microphones and a backlit keyboard. The svelte system measures 13.9mm thick (0.55 inches) and weighs just 1.19kg (2.62 pounds). Battery life is said to be rated at up to 17.5 hours from the 54Wh unit although Sammy admits that runtime will vary depending on usage and settings (meaning the reported figures are likely a best-case scenario). The Samsung Galaxy Book Flex alpha will be available sometime during the first half of 2020 starting at $829.99. Shawn, K. (2020, January 2).

Why it matters: Like smartphones, TV technology has made huge leaps over the last decade, with one of the many advances being shrinking bezels. At the upcoming CES event, however, Samsung is expected to go one step further by unveiling the first true 'Zero Bezel' television. According to The Elec, Samsung’s consumer electronics boss Kim Hyun-Seok and other executives have given the TV “two-thumbs up.” It plans to start mass production of the sets in February, which, if true, shows the television is more than a proof of concept. While there are other TVs that claim to be “zero-bezel,” they still come with slim borders. Samsung’s version reportedly welds the panel and the TV’s body together to create a television that lacks any bezels. “Unlike other so-called ‘zero-bezel’ products that actually still had bezels, this product really doesn’t have a bezel,” said a developer, who worked closely with the project. “Samsung has become the first in the world to realize such an extreme design.” The Zero Bezel TVs will only be available in sizes 65-inches and above, which is likely a result of the complicated manufacturing process, so you can expect them to be pretty expensive—especially if Samsung chooses to combine the design with 8K panels. It appears that the Zero Bezel TV is more than just a rumor. Samsung applied for a trademark on the term “Zero Bezel” in Europe two months ago, and the company tweeted a CES teaser showing an empty square with the phrase “The Age of Experience.” We’ll find out if it’s related to Zero Bezel TVs at the company’s CES event on January 6.
