Google also demoed AI voice technology called Duplex that has voice so lifelike it can already successfully interact with humans making reservations or scheduling appointments. House Democrats released more than 3,000 Facebook ads bought by the Russia based Internet Research Agency. The ads ran from 2015 to 2017 and popped up as sponsored posts in the news feeds, a specifically targeted groups of Facebook users. The goals of some of the ads were to influence the 2016 US presidential election and to undermine faith in the US democratic process. More that 120 million Americans were exposed to the Russian backed content during the election [MUSIC] And finally, according to Recode, two major music labels have sold off large chunks of their stakes in Spotify.
