At this years oscars . Now on bbc news. Click this week, shiona is in barcelona, which is full of the newest mobile tech, but where the wearables know too much. How old is Spencer Kelly from the bbc . Spencer kellys currently 50 years old. Blatant lies to be fair, he does look good for his age you wish meanwhile, eye eye, whats this . A phone you can control with just your peepers . Also, the politics of deep fakes. Were being told not to believe everything that we see, but what do we do when the lawmakers deepfa ke themselves . In the argentinian elections, we saw both candidates using ai generated images, making themselves look like heroes. And should ancient artefacts stay in a museum or be taken home . Its a hot topic right now, but alasdair� s been looking at a digital halfway house. The cool thing about ar is you can see it as it looks now, but also how it will have looked in the past. Exactly, how it originally looked, right . Welcome to mobile world congress, or mwc. With1. 4 billion phones sold a year thats 28 phones a second its no Wonder Industry Events like these in barcelona take place, and im excited to see whats happening. From the Honor Magic V2 with its Ground Breaking slimness, less than one centimetre when folded. Its so thin and so lightweight, this one. To motorolas latest design that rolls round your wrist and lenovos laptop with a transparent display, all the biggest names are here, fighting for my attention. One of the major Talking Points of the tech world has been the Samsung Galaxy ring, and this is the first time it has been officially revealed. I think the most important thing is to say, what value are we presenting to our users . And i would say its in three areas. One is obviously the things you would expect, like steps and activity, heart rate. And then theres the area of sleep, particularly around sleep stages, movement during sleep, Heart Rate Variability during sleep. And then lastly, Womens Health using Skin Temperature Sensors to detect trends of change to essentially predict the window of fertility for women. So what does the medical field think about this . Do you think that there will be genuine diagnostic developments as a result of monitoring this type of data . So i think its an evolution. I think there is generally a blurring of the lines of what was once a Consumer Device versus a medical device. And those things are becoming a little blurry now. It really does seem like its this new minimalist era for wearables that were seeing emerging. I cant hear anything now. Ah, because you are recording a video. Im recording a video how did i do that . Theres a real buzz around humane ai� s pin, and this is the first time its been shown in europe. Im looking forward to trying this. Heres the ai pin. Theres two components. Once you clip the ai pin to your clothes with a magnet, you can talk to it. What are the three top sights to see while im in barcelona . And itll answer questions by voice, like your own personal assistant. Pin the three best sights in barcelona are la sagrada familia, parc guell and la pedrera casa mila. And theres a two finger gesture that i do as well. What are some great Seafood Restaurants around here . Quins son Els Millors De Marisc per aqui . And what was the difference, then, between the one and the two . So one is just any kind of question that you might have about anything. And then two, really, is about translation. So itjust locks in translation and you can have it translate in up to 50 languages. Wow, ok. If you dont want to hear it, then just look at the answer, which will be projected using a laser onto the palm of your hand, and to use the controls, gesture with your fingers. You had a little demo with your husband in there. Yes. There was a few things i wanted to ask you. Absolutely. Because it takes photos and videos as well. Yes. Can you tell me how you can do that . So it could be that you look at a landmark and then you get some information in your line of sight as to what that could be. It could be that you look at an appliance and perhaps that could have something happening as a result of your gaze. So its almost limited by your imagination. And i think what a lot of the Companies Working on this are hoping is that they will create the toolset for people to be able to do this. And then very bright Application Developers will go off and innovate in all sorts of directions. Is it hard to do this . Doing this on a smartphone is arguably much harder than doing it on Something Like apples vision pro. You have a ski mask on your face, six cameras pointing at your iris. And it can very, very accurately pinpoint what youre looking at. On a smartphone, youre having to use a sensor on the front of the device in an open environment and actually assess what someone� s looking at and then invoke some kind of action as a result of that. Thats a complex task. One thing ive noticed while using this is my eyes dont stick on one exact part of the screen for any particular length of time. They kind of dart about a bit. So the challenge for any designer of an Eye Control System is they really have to know what bit you do want to activate and not accidentally delete your emails just cos your eye goes a bit funny but being able to work out where your eyes are pointing is just one consequence of something thats only happened in the last year the arrival of real al on your phone. Now, im not talking about the ai that youve probably how old is Spencer Kelly from the bbc . Spencer kelly from the bbc is currently 50 years old. I 50 years old. To be fair, he does look good for his age. And ai is a strong theme for the next generation of smartphones, too. Just circle what youre looking for and you get your answer. Anything in your Instagram Feed or a photograph that someone sends you, you Canjust Circle it and immediately initiate a search result. So thats using both, obviously, Visual Search and ai. And these are obviously new phones. Is it only people that are making a recent purchase that will have access to these features . So anyone who bought an 23 or an 23 fe last year, as well as our foldables and our tablet, actually, top end of our market in tablet, youre going to get the Galaxy Ai Features rolled out later on this year. But what happens to all this new technology after its no longer fresh out the box . Well, sadly, over 5 billion mobiles were thrown away last year. Many people keep their old tech rather than recycling it. And with the growth of ai putting even more stress on networks, the need for environmental responsibility is even greater. A newer phone in Great Condition might go straight back out to a customer with a little bit of a buff and polish. A broken phone will come in and itll get repaired and go back out to another customer. And a really smashed phone will still come back in and be harvested for parts that can then be used to repair other phones. How difficult is it to change attitudes when it comes to this type of thing . Were going to continue to innovate and thats a fantastic thing. And we see that here today. But if we are continuing tojust consume, consume, consume, consume, without driving the re use and ultimately the recycling at the end of the technologys useful life, then we are just digging more and more minerals out of the ground. So, if we really want to save the planet, it looks like itll have to be an effort from both the Phone Companies and ourselves. That was shiona and well have more of The Tech Showcase At Mwc later in the programme. Now, it was actually on our mobile devices that Augmented Reality First came to prominence. You look at your screen and itll add something virtual to the real space that youre in at the time. Originally, many may have disregarded it as something Playful Orjust for gaming. Now, though, its being used in health care, education and entertainment. Yeah, and Alasdair Keane has been to meet one artist whos using the tech to display historical artefacts, found in museums around the world, back in the countries they originate from. Looty is more than just, like, an arts collective. We kind of intersect between, like, arts, tech, activism and history. The whole inspiration for me came from a unesco report that said that 90 of all artwork and artefacts based in africa actually live outside of africa. And that was something that, like, was deeply unsettling for me. But also, you know, something that ive always wanted to have some sort of hand to, like, change. Looty describe their project as a digital heist. They capture objects on display in the British Museum digitally, but say this doesnt break the museums rules, which allow 3d scanning by visitors for noncommercial use. Were using lidar technology, so making scans, going around, you know, the different artefacts, scanning them and then taking that data that weve retrieved and then using those for, you know, ai experiences, nfts, and different installations as well. Their most recent project involved the Rosetta Stone, an ancient slab used by egyptians to study hieroglyphics. Using Free Software from the company snap, they were able to display it virtually in egypt. The actual position where the Rosetta Stone is from is a citadel in rashid. Simply, you just need a ai enabled device, snapchat, and then you can view that in its position in rashid. Lens studio has this technology called custom location ar, which is basically where you can geolocate a Digital Asset or, you know, a digital thing in its actual position. It starts with the story. The Rosetta Stone, known as the hajar rashid. And this appears before people in scale of what it is. Yeah. And the cool thing about ar is you can see it as it looks now, but also how it will have looked in the past. Exactly. How it originally looked, right . And what a lot of people dont know is that its actually a fracture of the original stone. So part of ourjourney was to, like, actually rebuild the Rosetta Stone. What do you hope people get out of using this and experiencing this . With this whole, like, digitisation of artefacts, i see this more as something thats for the future and for the younger generation. And most of the user base for, like, snapchat is, you know, people that are a lot younger than me, like the gen zs and things like that. So i saw this as, like, the best app, but then also, because of the ease of the use for the technology. Where and how objects are displayed is often debated. The British Museum told us there has been no formal request from the Egyptian Government for the Rosetta Stone to be repatriated and they say they work with colleagues there on exhibitions and research. There should be at least alternative methods, right, for us to engage with culture and history, you know . Like, that are commercialised as well. Notjust having, like, the institution of the museum running, like, the whole show. I guess they would say, though, they are engaging in that. The very fact that youre allowed to go into the museum and take a 3d scan, and they would say theyre doing this themselves and working with lots of different projects around the world. Yeah, its true, iwant, like, because i remember when i saw that in their terms and conditions, that youre allowed to make a 3d scan, iwasjust, like, why they would put that in the terms and conditions, but maybe they never thought of somebody like me going in and doing this and actually thinking about, you know, a digital repatriation. Maybe they didnt think that was something thats important, which, even if you think about today, is probably not so much important today, but for the future, i definitely believe that the digital is going to be the future. Pop star taylor swift and politicians such as us researchers are hoping that jellyfish can help them find it more about the state of the planet. Fashion accessories contain an array of tronic that gather data about the ocean. Jellyfish not have a rain or the ability to send pain so that they are not harmed by the experiment. Pop star taylor swift and politicians such as us president joe biden. Its important that you save your vote for the november election. Uk labour leader keir starmer. And londons mayor, sadiq khan, have all found themselves victims of deepfakes in recent months. I control the police. They will do as the mayor of london tells them, and obey orders. Whether its fake explicit images or Audio Recordings of conversations that havent ever happened, Dodgy Deepfakes created using readily available ai powered tools have spread like wildfire across social media, Sowing Seeds Of Mistrust and blurring the lines between reality and often malicious fiction. But in this confused and confusing landscape, what happens when politicians use Deepfake Technology themselves . To find out, we need to take a trip from the big smoke to the big apple. Attention� s focused here in lower manhattan, new york city hall. Its become almost commonplace for bad actors to deepfake politicians, but its unusual for politicians to deepfake themselves. Thats something that the mayor of new york has actually done. Towards the end of last year, mayor of new york eric adams revealed in a Press Conference that hed used Deepfake Technology to make a series of automated or robocalls to nyc residents. In these calls, which mainly promoted the hiring of venues owned by the city, the mayor was able to speak a variety of languages, including mandarin, cantonese and spanish, using deepfake tech. These actions have raised more than a few eyebrows in certain quarters. To find out more, i needed to leave manhattan and head to brooklyn. Its here i caught up with civil rights and privacy campaigner albert fox cahn. He believes the mayors use of ai sets a dangerous precedent. And to me, its reallyjust this alarming wake up call about the potential for abuse of these deepfake technologies. When you normalise the use of this sort of Deepfake Technology, when you use it to convey authentic government announcements, then youre basically educating the public that deepfakes are reliable, that you should trust what you hear in a deepfake. Theres huge potential to use deepfakes to really undermine trust in government and trust in our institutions. The Mayors Office declined our request for an interview, but eric adams has publicly stated new york city will be doing more stuff with al and will use it and not abuse it. Political use of this technology is on the rise around the world. Henry ajder is an authority on deepfakes and ai. This isntjust a western phenomenon. Its really global and one that really springs to mind happened in india, where a bjp candidate, thats the ruling party, used a Similar Technology to essentially speak different regional dialects that he couldnt actually speak. And in this example, it wasnt disclosed clearly to the audience that this was ai generated. And when it emerged that it was, the actual bjp party disowned this use and kind of decried it as something that they didnt want. And then, more recently, in indonesian elections that happened earlier this year, we saw an avatar of a synthetically resurrected deceased previous leader coming back to endorse one of the candidates. President indonesia. But in the argentinian elections late last year, we saw both candidates using ai generated images to depict the opponents as weak, but also to embolden themselves, making them look like heroes or strong men. My concern, i guess, is that if we do start to see politicians really embracing this and this is becoming a much more high volume form of political communication, it will lead to increasing distrust in media of politicians more broadly. Theres an estimated 2 billion people voting in elections across the globe this year. The stakes have never been higher when it comes to determining political fact from fake. Spencer that was marc. Well, at least it sounded like him. Anyway, we started the show at the mobile world congress, so lets finish with another face off with a phone. Spaghetti western music im about to do something very cool with my eyes. Engine starts yeah, ivejust turned on a car by looking at an icon on a phone. If the sensor at the top detects that your eyes have fixed on a particular part of the screen for 1. 8 seconds, it treats it like a click. This phone, the honor magic 6 pro, has been using this gaze control to allow users in china to look at incoming notifications and open the messages. This expanded Proof Of Concept Demo gives me a wider choice of actions, basically, controlling a car i mean, its all very knight rider, isnt it, really . Just to be clear here, this is not a demo of eye controlled driving, but it is a signal that your devices might soon know what you want to do, without you even touching them. Were at a period in time where the interaction with devices is arguably at the cusp of changing. This could be transformational in the way in which we engage with devices in future. Theres been a bit of a buzz around eye control recently, mainly thanks to the Apple Vision Pro headset. You dont use controllers with it, you just make a gesture with your fingers while looking at the thing you want to select. And its got people wondering whether looking is the new pointing. So it could be that you look at a landmark and then you get some information in your line of sight as to what that could be. It could be that you look at an appliance and perhaps that could have something happening as a result of your gaze. So its almost limited by your imagination. And i think what a lot of the Companies Working on this are hoping is that they will create the toolset for people to be able to do this. And then very bright Application Developers will go off and innovate in all sorts of directions. Is it hard to do this . Doing this on a smartphone is arguably much harder than doing it on Something Like apples vision pro. You have a ski mask on your face, six cameras pointing at your iris. And it can very, very accurately pinpoint what youre looking at. On a smartphone, youre having to use a sensor on the front of the device in an open environment and actually assess what someone� s looking at and then invoke some kind of action as a result of that. Thats a complex task. One thing ive noticed while using this is my eyes dont stick on one exact part of the screen for any particular length of time. They kind of dart about a bit. So the challenge for any designer of an Eye Control System is they really have to know what bit you do want to activate and not accidentally delete your emails just cos your eye goes a bit funny but being able to work out where your eyes are pointing is just one consequence of something thats only happened in the last year the arrival of real al on your phone. Now, im not talking about the ai that youve probably been using recently, like those conversations youve been having with that large language model or those weird pictures youve been creating. See, thats not your phone doing the work. Its only been showing you the results from huge Ai Data Centres in the cloud. But now theres a new type of processor which is being put into phones and which is bringing true ai onto your device. Its called an npu, a neural processing unit, and its tailor made to handle the complex calculations performed by neural networks. This is going to make all sorts of things possible because the phone can be using that intelligence all the time to almost be predictive where youll look at the phone and youll interact with the phone and it will almost know what you want to do before you even want to do it. And this is also making other capabilities like real time translation possible. Its making the processing of images to fill in gaps in an image if you rotate it, for example, possible on device very, very quickly. One additional benefit for consumers, however, is the fact that if all of that computation is done on the device, there are some good privacy benefits because it means your data isnt leaving the device and going up into the cloud where you relinquish control of it. So i think we can expect to see more phones doing more intelligent things in the months to come as manufacturers experiment with new ai capabilities on their devices. Interfaces are changing, ai is evolving. But most importantly right now, i need to park the car. And thats all weve got time for. Yeah, thanks for watching and we will see you soon. Bye. Not particularly springlike for many areas so far, through the week it will perhaps start to feel more like spring. Temperatures climbing, but still some rain at times. Rain for the rest of the day, moving slowly north and west across england and north wales, some Rain Into Southern Scotland and Northern Ireland, patchy rain in the north of scotland. Eastern scotland quite chilly, 5 6, sunshine from the south, wales, up to 12. This evening, we keep extensive cloud cover, but rain easing, some drizzle, more widespread rain for a time in Northern Ireland. Clear spells could fill in with areas of mist and fog. Heading into tomorrow, many of us find ourselves between different Weather Systems, but this one here brings more cloud and some rain towards parts of Northern Ireland, grazing the west of scotland. And the area of low pressure to the south east may bring some rain to east anglia and south eastern england. In between, large amounts of cloud, some bright sunny spells, the best of those for wales and the south west, six or seven in the north east of scotland. And into tuesday, the Weather System could bring rain across the southern half of the uk and then we see the next system from the west feeding rain across Northern Ireland and western parts of wales and into scotland later. Limited sunny spells, but temperatures will start to climb, and that is a sign of things to come. Moving through the middle of the week, various Weather Systems wriggling around. And eventually, as they shift north, they will introduce warmer air which reaches just about all the country by the end of the week, something colder trying to cling on in the far north. But for most of us into the weekend, it will bring higher temperatures, but that doesnt mean blue skies and sunshine all the time, still some outbreaks of rain.
