🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️ AI Confirms Putin Uses Multiple Body Doubles

Good Morning from the Promptbox Team!

Putin has been called out for years on using a body-double, but it’s always been readily denied.

But Japanese researchers just used AI to prove that not only does he have a body double - he most likely has several.

With so many theories about Joe Biden or even John Fetterman using doubles at times, we might finally be able to peak behind the curtain.

… assuming the research lab doesn’t suddenly suffer an ‘accidental and catastrophic failure’.

Happy Thursday. Let's get it.

Japanese researchers claim that Vladimir Putin has been using multiple body doubles for public appearances based on an extensive AI analysis. The study was based on AI-enhanced facial recognition, voice comparison, and body movement analysis. These claims, though previously rumored and even stated by Russian and Ukrainian sources, have been denied by the Kremlin in the past.

Key evidence from the research:

1. Facial Recognition: The real Putin who hosted the Red Square Victory Day parade was found to be distinctly different from the one who inspected the Crimean Bridge, with only a 53% facial recognition match.
   

2. Further Discrepancy: Another appearance of Putin at the war front in Mariupol showed only a 40% facial recognition similarity to the Putin seen on Red Square.
   

3. Voice Biometrics: Voice biometrics showed discrepancies in how Putin pronounced the word "spasibo" (thank you) on different occasions.
   

4. Gait Analysis: Gait analysis also indicated differences in Putin's walking patterns in various appearances.

The report suggests that there could be at least two body doubles of Putin.

This rise in the use of body doubles has sparked speculations about Putin's health, with some suggesting he might be seriously ill. Recent comments from Russian political analyst Dr. Valery Solovey even claimed that President Putin is in his last days due to a terminal illness, and the double has been representing him in significant events, including a recent visit to China.

The main reason for using a double might be the risk of assassination, especially given the ongoing war in Ukraine.

Now do Biden.

Promptbox’s Top Trending AI Stories:

HIGHER EDUCATION
Stanford is ranking major AI models on transparency
The team went about scoring 10 prominent foundation models on a score of 100 and the results showed there was a lot of room for improvement. The highest scores ranged between 47% and 54% while the lowest score stands at 12%. Open-source models like Meta AI’s Llama 2 and Hugging Face’s BloomZ models led the way with 54% and 53% respectively, while OpenAI’s benchmark model, GPT-4 stood third with 48%

EVIL AI
The emergence of AI tools such as WormGPT and FraudGPT, specifically designed for cybercrime are becoming easier to access.
While OpenAI and Google have implemented safeguards to prevent misuse of their AI tools, WormGPT is designed to bypass these restrictions, enabling it to generate output that could involve disclosing sensitive information, producing inappropriate content and executing harmful code, and there isn’t anyone can do to stop it.

PRIVACY
The world's most valuable chip company Nvidia and iPhone maker Foxconn are joining forces to build so-called "AI factories"
Ben Winters, who leads the Electronic Privacy Information Center’s AI and Human Rights Project, said earlier this year: "In the absence of meaningful privacy regulations, that means that people can scrape really widely all over the internet, take anything that is ‘publicly available’ - that top layer of the internet for lack of a better term - and just use it in their product.”

AI FACTORIES
Large language models gave advice on how to conceal the true purpose of the purchase of anthrax, smallpox and plague bacteria
Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang and Foxconn chairman Young Liu shared a stage at Foxconn's annual tech showcase in Taipei on Wednesday.

"A new type of manufacturing has emerged - the production of intelligence and the data centres that produce it are AI factories," Mr Huang said, according to Reuters, adding that Foxconn had the expertise and scale to build these factories globally.
