AI Uncovers Hidden Anomalies in Hubble Archive, While Supreme Court Considers Video Privacy Law
Astronomers at the European Space Agency (ESA) utilized artificial intelligence to identify over 800 previously undocumented astrophysical anomalies within the Hubble Space Telescope's archives, according to The Verge. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is set to decide how a 1988 videotape privacy law applies to online video streaming, Ars Technica reported.
The AI model, developed by researchers David ORyan and Pablo Gómez, took only 2.5 days to search through 100 million image cutouts from the Hubble archives. The AI model flagged oddities such as jellyfish galaxies. The Verge noted.
In a separate legal matter, the Supreme Court will hear a case concerning Paramount Global and its alleged violation of the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA). The case, Michael Salazar v. Paramount Global, revolves around the definition of "consumer" within the context of the VPPA, according to Ars Technica. Michael Salazar filed a class action lawsuit against Paramount in 2022, alleging that the company disclosed his personally identifiable information to Facebook without his consent. Salazar had provided his email address when signing up for an online newsletter through 247Sports.com, a site owned by Paramount.
