New deepfake algorithm allows you to text-edit the words of a speaker in a video

It is now possible to take a talking-head style video, and add, delete or edit the speaker’s words as simply as you’d edit text in a word processor. A new deepfake algorithm can process the audio and video into a new file in which the speaker… Continue reading New deepfake algorithm allows you to text-edit the words of a speaker in a video

Altering liver's fat metabolism could help prevent diabetes without dietary changes

Altering the fat metabolism in the liver could reduce the chances of diabetes even while still ...

No matter what the latest fad diet tells us to do, we already know the general gist of how to stay healthy – eating too much sugar and fat leads to weight gain and metabolic diseases. But what if you could stay healthier without changing your diet? In mouse tests conducted at Max Planck, researchers have now found a way to alter the fat metabolism in the liver, reducing the chances of diabetes without changing a high-fat diet.

New superconductivity record edges closer to room temperature

No matter how good a material is at conducting electricity, there’s usually some resistance – unless you use superconductive materials. Since they can conduct electricity with absolutely no loss, they could be revolutionary if not for one lit… Continue reading New superconductivity record edges closer to room temperature

New algorithm digs up 18 Earth-like exoplanets from old Kepler data

So far almost 4,000 planets have been discovered orbiting stars other than the Sun, and that tally is constantly growing. Now another 18 exoplanets have been added to the haul, but the difference this time is that all of them are roughly Eart… Continue reading New algorithm digs up 18 Earth-like exoplanets from old Kepler data
