The latest issue of The Comet Newsletter highlights several pressing topics, such as Facebook's partnership with Michigan State University to reverse engineer deepfakes using a fingerprint estimation network, providing a potential solution to the growing concern over manipulated media. It also discusses a new free NLP course from Hugging Face, aimed at educating users on building NLP applications, and a collaborative initiative by Deepnote offering a free Teams Plan for up to three collaborators, enhancing communication in data science projects. Additionally, the newsletter addresses the alarming development of lethal autonomous drones, citing a UN report on their use in Libya and the potential proliferation of such technology as a new form of weapons of mass destruction. Researchers from the Future of Life Institute are advocating for a halt on the development and deployment of these systems to prevent further escalation.
