Like most content creators, I’ve been somewhat apprehensive about the rising impact of generative AI on digital marketing over the last couple of years.

There are plenty of tools available that claim to help users create high-quality content at scale, optimize it for the search engines, and so much more.

We all (roughly) know how to naturally converse with one another. This is mostly subconscious and only really noticeable if an interaction skews from what most consider “normal.”

In order to understand computer vision, we must first understand how we’ve evolved to see the world. Not only is it important to investigate how we see but why our sight evolved this way.

In case you missed the introduction to this series, Joseph Redmon released a series of 20 lectures on computer vision in September of 2018. As he’s an expert in the field, I wrote a lot of notes while going through his lectures. I am tidying my notes for my own future reference but am posting them on Medium also, in case they’re useful for others.

Joseph Redmon released a series of 20 lectures on computer vision in September (2018). As he is an expert in the field, I wrote a lot of notes while going through his lectures. I am tidying my notes for my own future reference but will post them on Medium also in case these are useful for others.

His first lecture is an introduction in which he details the differences, methods and applications of low, mid, and high level computer vision (CV).

With over 210 million daily active users, Snapchat remains one of the top applications that people use to enjoy augmented reality experiences. The app’s wide variety of AR features lets users do everything, from giving their digital selves some doggie ears to adding realistic 3D effects and transformations.

Snap has always been proactive about letting people come up with new ideas and designs, with Lens Studio allowing developers to “create, publish, and share Lenses” across the platform. To date, Snap reports over 1 million custom Lenses created.

In the previous post in this series on working with forms in React Native, you did a lot of things—from creating Login and Signup forms from scratch, to using powerful libraries like Formik and Yup, to validating those forms.

In this tutorial, let’s extend our knowledge of building and validating forms by handling different input field types other than strings. You’re also going to see my solution for how to gracefully create a Confirm Password field and validate it using the reference of the already set up password field.
