filmmaker uses ai to visualize thousands of leaked passwords

UK filmmaker Daniel McKee has created a unique film called “Password123” as a music video for London-based musician HOWE, and if you look carefully, you might see one of your online passwords featured.

McKee’s film visualizes real passwords leaked on the dark web from some of the most severe data breaches of the past decade. Each password was then run through the text-to-image ai DALL-E 2.

“Password123” offers a rare glimpse into user habits and highlights keyboard patterns such as “QWERTY” to the names of loved ones, pets, memorable dates, sports teams, and places.

Daniel handpicked passwords from an enormous 32GB file of 847,223,403 entries. To protect user privacy, names, addresses, and emails have been edited.

“We share these secret phrases with computers daily, and they occupy a special place in our minds. I wanted to see how an AI would reveal them as images,” explained Daniel.

McKee’s film serves as an important reminder of the importance of strong passwords in an age when data breaches are becoming increasingly common. To check if your information has been compromised in a past data breach, check out the helpful haveibeenpwned.com website.

samsung galaxy ring wearable will launch in eight sizes

The global launch of the Samsung Galaxy Ring is hotly anticipated, with details about the next-gen wearable gradually emerging since the company’s teaser announcement back in January. Now, a report has also unveiled the model numbers for the device, suggesting it will be available in eight different sizes.

While Samsung has yet to divulge detailed specs and features of the Galaxy Ring, it’s likely to feature an array of health and sleep monitoring functionalities, while boasting a battery life of up to nine days on a single charge.

As per a Galaxy Club report, there are currently eight confirmed variants of the Galaxy Ring: SM-Q500, SM-Q501, SM-Q502, SM-Q505, SM-Q506, SM-Q507, SM-Q508, and SM-Q509.

However, the mystery shrouding two absent model numbers persists, leaving speculation as to whether they signify additional sizes or if Samsung plans to unveil a later ninth variant of the ring, as previously hinted. There’s conjecture that these models may correspond to US ring sizes 5 and above, commencing with the SMQ500, with subsequent numbers potentially indicating larger ring sizes, possibly reaching up to size 13, aligning with model number SM-Q509.

Recent Korean reports have shed light on how Samsung’s Mobile eXperience division (MX) collaborated with the Home Appliance department to integrate Samsung Food with the Galaxy Ring: Tailored for daily activity tracking, the Galaxy Ring, when paired with Samsung Food and an intelligent Samsung refrigerator featuring AI vision, delivers personalized dietary guidance based on calorie intake and BMI.

Samsung is banking on the user-friendly interface and high durability of the ring to redefine the healthcare wearables landscape. Meanwhile, Apple is also making strides in the development of a smart ring, aimed at monitoring users’ health biometrics discreetly when worn on the finger. According to the Electronic Times report, Apple has been closely monitoring market interest in this more inconspicuous alternative to a traditional watch.
