![]() The game also lacks a map feature and forces you to backtrack throughout levels way too often. However, when there’s platforming involved, things become infuriating. That’s not really an issue during combat, as mashing the Square button like a lunatic will still be the solution to 99.99% of encounters. Sadly, despite featuring a great combat system, Narita Boy‘s controls are a bit confusing and feature a noticeable amount of input lag. That doesn’t mean the gameplay is flawless. ![]() You’ll crave for enemies to show up because it feels great just to tear them apart. Narita Boy nails the metroidvania progression system like few games do. You’ll constantly pick up new moves to increase your arsenal and it feels great. You can charge your sword attack in order to blast anyone near you with a home run bash and you can also use a limited supply of shots inside your blade, transforming it into a shotgun. ![]() Your sword packs one hell of a punch, transforming all kinds of enemies into piles of data. This the most anime Narita Boy ever gets, and it’s glorious. After a brief introductory section in which you’re unable to defend yourself against HIM’s minions, you’ll eventually grab the legendary Techno Sword and proceed to mow down everything in sight. Story-wise, Narita Boy isn’t very brilliant, but you can pretty much ignore it and enjoy the game for what it truly is: a super stylish metroidvania packed with tons of audiovisual elements taken straight from every single 80’s cliché you can imagine. You’ll also be greeted to a nonsensical amount of technobabble and invented terms that are here to basically make things even more incomprehensible than they already are. He is trying to save the land from the clutches of HIM (not related to the Finnish band) and restore the memories of the game’s creator, who takes the mantle of a god-like figure within the setting in a similar way to James Halliday in Ready Player One. Narita Boy‘s somewhat convoluted story revolves around the titular hero fighting through hordes of enemies inside a Digital Kingdom within an old-school computer game. Get ready for some seizures during this section. ![]()

![]() It doesn't matter how insanely CPU-intensive this sort of application is: some dipshit with no social insight and an underdeveloped sense of morality is going to deploy it in an attempt to monetize us. Once we combine procedural video generation with toolkits for promoting social media addiction and good old web tracking, we're on course to all be parasitized by our own AI stalkers, helpfully generating video and other content tweaked iteratively to compel us to pay attention, whether due to arousal, disgust, happiness, fear, or whatever. Forget troll armies harassing people they don't like by 'shopping their heads onto snuff movie victims and posting this on social media (so that if you naively go searching for person X, your first thousand hits are videos of person X committing horrific acts or being dismembered). The point is, we're close to going beyond simple recaptioning/keyword addition of pirated kids' cartoons, and getting into AI-assisted remixes of real people with TV/movies/game content, optimized to compel the viewer to watch it. Spamming YouTube keywords for ad revenue? Also possible. Maximizing views is easy if you decide to go for the shock value. It's possible the perpetrators don't speak or read English this is a side-effect of machine learning tools gone feral.) Most of the output was random gibberish, or inoffensive at worst: the same can't be said of "Keep Calm and Knife Her" or "Keep Calm and Rape A Lot". (This came up because some idiot wrote a bot to sell tee shirts via Amazon, with the caption "Keep Calm and " where are phrases some sort of machine learning system scraping lists of verbs and pronouns. (The preceding link is long and deeply creepy in its implications: it's a must-read.) And when algorithms go hog-wild to maximize eyeballs and/or sales you get weird and unpleasant results like this: The content and keywords on these ad-videos is largely algorithmically composed, and optimized for maximum eyeball draw. The political consequences of this toxic metastasis of "false news" I leave for discussion in comments.įor a while now there's been a very weird phenomenon on YouTube, whereby popular childrens videos are pirated, remixed, and reuploaded as advertising delivery vehicles. Everything becomes deniable, and in an age of state-sponsored infowar waged in social media it'll be trivially easy to discredit anyone. We can no longer believe the evidence of our own eyes and ears, unless we are in-person witnesses to a politician's speech. It'll probably be built into your smartphone's camera processor in a few years, first a "make me look fit in selfies" mode and then a "do the same thing, only in video chat" option.īut with procedural speech mimicry on top of face/body substitution, all video evidence turns questionable. Pretty soon everyone you see on film or TV is going to be 'shopped to look sexier, fitter, and skinnier than is actually natural. We can now automate the video-photoshopping of subjects so that, for example, folks like me don't look as unattractive in a talking-heads TV interview. And we all know about airbrushing/photoshopping of models on magazine covers and in adverts. It's a truism of the TV business that the camera adds ten kilograms. (Second generation application: Hitler sums it up, now with fewer subtitles) We need AI to get the lip-sync right, in other words, before today's simplistic AI-generated video porn turns really toxic. Being able to train a network to recognize the cadences of our target's intonation, though, and then to modulate a different speaker's words so they come out sounding right takes it into a whole new level of plausibility for human viewers, because we give credence to sensory inputs based on how consistent they are with our other senses. It's all very well to fake up a video of David Cameron fucking a goat, but without the bleating and mindless quackspeak it's pretty obvious that it's a fake. What I'm not seeing yet is the obvious application of this sort of deep learning to speech synthesis. ![]() ![]() ![]() In IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy, 2013.

Standards for the protection of personal information of residents of the commonwealth.Mcafee host intrusion prevention for server.We show that x86 code transformed with AutoCrypt achieves performance that is significantly better than its alternatives (downloading to a trusted client, or using fully-homomorphic encryption). Key to achieving this expressiveness over encrypted data, is our scheme to combine and convert between partially-homomorphic encryption (PHE) schemes using a small TCB in the trusted cloud hypervisor. We show that such a transformation is feasible for several standard Unix utilities available in a typical LAMP stack, with no developer effort. As a step towards this goal, we develop a tool called AutoCrypt, which transforms a subset of existing C functionality in the web stack to operate on encrypted sensitive content. In this context, the main challenge is to allow the legitimate functionality of the untrusted server VM to work. All sensitive web content is made available to the vulnerable server VM in encrypted form, thereby limiting the effectiveness of data-stealing attacks through server VM compromise. In this work, we investigate the feasibility of a web server architecture, wherein the vulnerable server VM runs on a trusted cloud. Web servers are vulnerable to a large class of attacks which can allow network attacker to steal sensitive web content. ![]() ![]() Sharon: What can you tell us about Murmur and where did that name come from?
