NETWORKS
What is neural networks?
In information technology, an artificial neural network (ANN) is a
system of hardware or software patterned after the operation of
neurons in the human brain. ANNs -- also called, simply, neural
networks -- are a variety of deep learning technology, which also
falls under the umbrella of artificial intelligence, or AI.

Commercial applications of these technologies generally focus on


solving complex signal processing or pattern recognition problems.
Examples of significant commercial applications since 2000 include
handwriting recognition for check processing, speech-to-text
transcription, weather prediction and facial recognition.
The history of artificial neural networks goes back to
the early days of computing. In 1943, mathematicians
Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts built a scheme
system intended to approximate the functioning of the
human brain that ran simple algorithms.
A Concise History of Neural Networks
The idea of neural networks began
unsurprisingly as a model of how neurons in
the brain function, termed ‘connectionism’ and
used connected circuits to simulate intelligent
behaviour .In 1943, portrayed with a simple
electrical circuit by neurophysiologist Warren
McCulloch and mathematician Walter Pitts.
Donald Hebb took the idea further in his book,
The Organization of Behaviour (1949),
proposing that neural pathways strengthen
over each successive use, especially between
neurons that tend to fire at the same time thus
beginning the long journey towards quantifying
the complex processes of the brain.

DARK SIDE OF NEURAL NETWORKS: DEEP FAKE

What is deep fake?

Deep-fake technology allows easy and high reliability replacing of people's faces in
video recordings. Thus, one can falsify almost any video with this or that person. With
the development of neural networks, it became available to non-professionals, with
minimal hardware requirements and time costs. To train neural networks, you need a
large number of freely available images of a person.
What are the dangers of technology?

1.Unable to configure automatic detection of counterfeits


2.The role of the moderator is growing. Only a person is able (and even then not
always) to recognize a fake
3.Deepfake detection is triggered too late
4.It is extremely difficult to remove from the Web what once got there. You can remove
video from the site, but impossible from messengers
5.Deepfakes can take political propaganda and counterpropaganda to levels never seen
before.

The Future of Neural Networks

All current NN technologies will most likely be vastly improved upon in the future.
Everything from handwriting and speech recognition to stock market prediction will
become more sophisticated as researchers develop better training methods and network
architectures. Neural Networks might, in the future, allow:

●robots that can see, feel, and predict the world around
them
●improved stock prediction
●common usage of self-driving cars
●composition of music
●handwritten documents to be automatically
transformed into formatted word processing
documents
●trends found in the human genome to aid in the
understanding of the data compiled by the Human
Genome Project
●self-diagnosis of medical problems using neural
networks
