- Open-source platform provides a virtual playground for human-AI teamingon December 20, 2024 at 7:30 pm
Artificial intelligence (AI) has already become an invisible but indispensable collaborator in our lives. It helps filter spam from your inbox, improves your Netflix recommendations, and, as an automotive copilot, suggests optimal routes, monitors blind spots, and assists with parking.
- AI system reveals hidden drug dark jargon unknown even to police officerson December 20, 2024 at 6:18 pm
Drug trafficking and other criminal activities on social media have become a growing social concern. To evade detection by law enforcement and automated monitoring systems, offenders use dark jargons, often combining multiple common words to form "dark jargon"—covert dark jargons that are difficult to identify. Once authorities recognize these dark jargons, offenders quickly switch to new ones, making it a constant race to keep up with the evolving words.
