Sound of Birds Chirping Can Be Used to Hack Voice Assistants

Description

According reports from Digital Trends, and scientists at Ruhr-Universitaet in Bochum, Germany have discovered that the sounds of birds chirping could potentially be used to launch an attack against voice assistants like Amazon's Alexa. Researchers have found that manipulated audio files are part of what is called an “adversarial attack,” which is used to confuse the deep neural networks that help artificial intelligence-powered assistants like Apple’s Siri, and Google’s Assistant. Using the sound of birds chirping in a way that only the microphone on your smart speaker or smartphone can pick up would bypasses detection from human ears and the sound could potentially disrupt the A.I. assistant

And to explore the voices of the electric vehicles of the future, a visit to Renault Group’s long-time partner, Ircam (Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics/Music), is a must!
