Smart secret hiding technique

[Pascal Bornet @pascal_bornet]

RIP Privacy — AI Glasses Can Now Recognize Anyone, Anywhere.

A Dutch journalist just tested a pair of AI-powered glasses that can instantly identify strangers on the street.

No government database. No police system. Just public data and off-the-shelf AI.

You look at someone and in seconds, their name, LinkedIn, and background appear before your eyes.

The scariest part? You can’t really stop it.

You can ban it, regulate it, add blinking red lights… but once tech like this exists, someone will always find a way to use it.

To me, this marks a turning point.

We’ve officially blurred the line between seeing people and knowing them.

Between being in public and being exposed.

So here’s the question:
When every face becomes a dataset, how do we protect the meaning of being human?

[HOW THINGS WORK @HowThingsWork_]

How concrete road barriers are made.

A 17-year-old just built a mind-controlled prosthetic arm for $300.

Yes, $300.

For something that usually costs $450,000.

Let that hit you.

A teenager, working from home, used AI, cheap materials, and 23,000 lines of code to build a device that reads brain signals without surgery, without implants, and without a $450K price tag.

This is not a feel-good story.

It’s a warning shot.

How can a high school student build something 1,500× cheaper than the industry standard?

What does that say about innovation?

About pricing?

About who gets access to life-changing technology?

Of course, medical prosthetics are expensive for real reasons:
materials, testing, regulation, customization.

But let’s be honest — not all of that justifies a half-million-dollar price.

This story exposes a simple truth:

The future of accessibility won’t come from the system.

It will come from the outsiders who dare to challenge it.

If a 17-year-old can match top-tier prosthetics for a fraction of the cost…

why aren’t these solutions available to the millions who need them?

What do you think — breakthrough moment or the start of a bigger revolution?

The smartphone just declared war on the camera industry

Xiaomi just dropped a wild idea: a smartphone with a detachable pro-grade camera lens.

A phone that snaps on a real lens with magnets. Yes, magnets.

It’s a clever move at a strange moment in history.

Camera sales keep falling. Smartphones keep rising.

And the real arms race isn’t glass anymore — it’s AI-powered image processing.

As an AI guy and a photographer, here’s my take:

Hardware won’t save the camera industry.

Software will.

The future of photography is no longer in the lens… it’s in the algorithm.

Phones will keep getting smarter.

Cameras will stay for the purists.

But detachable lenses?

Feels like a bridge between two worlds that are already drifting apart.

But maybe I’m wrong.

Maybe this hybrid future has a place.

What do you think — genius innovation or a beautiful dead end?
