We'll still talk about NASA's prediction for humans to live on the Moon this decade and Donald Trump's return to Twitter. Check out the news of the week!

O Showmetech TRIO this week will be about the Artemis Mission, a project that predicts humans living on the Moon this decade; we'll talk about the first real-time deep fake detector from Intel; and we will also show Elon Musk's permission so that Donald Trump go back to Twitter. Come check out the highlights of the week with Showmetech TRIO!

NASA Envisions Humans Living on the Moon

What many science fiction books, movies and series talk about living on the Moon may be closer than we think. Howard Hu, who leads the aerospace program Orion from NASA, said that soon humans will be able to spend long periods on Earth's natural satellite.

This pronouncement was made during the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg program this past Wednesday, November 16, when the rocket Artemis was done, transporting the Orion spacecraft to the Moon. This is part of a new trip to the Moon after 50 years.

Howard Hu explained that if the current Artemis flight is successful, the next one will be manned, followed by a third, in which astronauts would land on the Moon again for the first time since Apollo 17, in December 1972. Once the safety of Artemis's components and systems has been tested and proven, Howard says the plan is to have humans living on the Moon within this decade.

Another big part of the motivation for going back to the Moon is to find out if there is water at the satellite's south pole, as this can be converted to provide fuel for ships that will go deeper into space - like a trip to Mars, for example.

1st real-time deep fake detector

called FakeCatcher, the first real-time deep fake detector in the world is produced by Intel and promises to have 96% accuracy in its results. One of the most impressive ways is by analyzing the blood flow captured in video pixels, through photoplethysmography technology, also known by the acronym PPG.

Ilke Demir, senior research scientist at Intel Labs, designed the FakeCatcher detector in collaboration with Umur Ciftci of the State University of New York, Binghamton. The real-time detector uses Intel hardware and software and runs on a server and is interfaced through a web-based platform.

O FakeCatcher it differs from most AI-based detectors in that it looks for authentic clues in real videos rather than looking at raw data for signs of inauthenticity – which is more common today.

His method is based on the PPG, a method used to measure the amount of light that is absorbed or reflected by blood vessels in living tissue. When our hearts pump blood, the veins change color and these signals are picked up by technology to determine if a video is fake or not.

The detector collects signals from 32 locations on the face before algorithms translate them to decide whether a video is real or fake. Does the life of fake news in edited videos have the beginning of an end?

Return of Donald Trump to Twitter

A new day where Elon Musk is CEO of Twitter, a novelty on the subject. And this time we're talking about the return of Donald Trump to the platform, since it had been banned due to the high incitement to violence, also remembering the attack on the Capitol in 2021.

Shortly after taking control of the social network, Elon Musk said he would not restore any banned accounts until the company established and convened a content moderation board with "widely diverse views".

However, on the night of that Friday, November 18th, he decided to make a Poll with your own Twitter followers. The title of the poll read “Reinstate Former President Trump", next to buttons to choose "Yes" or "No".

More than 134 million people viewed the poll, according to Musk, though it ended up with just over 15 million responses. This suggests that only around 11% of those who saw it clicked on one of the buttons.

The day after being asked about Musk's research, Trump suggested he would not return to the social network, saying he didn't see a reason to. But Trump also told his supporters on the Truth Social to vote in the Twitter poll on Saturday afternoon, about three hours before the poll closed.

Donald Trump migrated to the social network Truth Social, a far-right platform, after being banned from Twitter. In addition to all the news about mass layoffs, user and professional discontent, we have more news about Twitter. What awaits us on tomorrow's news?
