Facebook has developed a new software that is able to recognize faces just as good as you can. The software ominously called DeepFace can determine whether two photographed faces are of the same person with 97.25% practically of that of humans which only score slightly better on the same test: 97.53% Based on information like the distance between the eyes, and from the nose to the eyes, Facebook’s existing software is already able to suggest friends to tag when you upload a photo. DeepFace, however, uses much more advanced technology, creating a 3D model of the photographed face, which it is able to rotate and compare with other images.

Google has dropped a large wearable bombshell today in the form of a developer preview for “Android Wear,” a smartwatch platform that works a bit like Google Now for your wrist. Now, various hardware manufacturers are coming out of the woodwork to announce their own plans to create wearable devices. LG is the first, with the LG G Watch, which Engadget reports is probably due to arrive next quarter. The watch appears to be a simple, plastic square with an LCD touchscreen. In a statement, LG’s CEO of mobile communications said simply that LG would “pull out all the stops in both design and engineering.” LG also said it was “developed in close collaboration with Google,” but stopped short of dubbing it a “Nexus” device. Motorola also has announced plans for a smartwatch. The company, which is about to be purchased by Lenovo, said in a blog post today that it would be called Moto 360. It has a round face and looks much more elegant than any smartwatch we’ve seen thus far. Motorola sai
