Last updated September 30, 2024 This Privacy Notice for TweetWizard, a Google Chrome Extension developed by SyncTank AI Technologies Inc. (“SyncTank”, “we,” “us,” or “our”), describes how and why we might access, collect, store, use, and/or share (“process”) your personal information when you use TweetWizard (“Extension”), including when you install and use it. This policy only pertains to TweetWizard and not to any other service by SyncTank. This policy supersedes and replaces any other privacy policy or terms provided by SyncTank. Questions or concerns? Reading this Privacy Notice will help you understand your privacy rights and choices. We are responsible for making decisions about how your personal information is processed. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Service. If you still have any questions or concerns, please contact us at contact@synctankai.com. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT? We do not collect, store, or process any personal information from your Twitter account or device. The only data processed is the tweet information (e.g., its text), which is necessary for generating the response.  When you click the Extension’s button to generate a comment, we collect information from of the tweet you are interacting with. We do not collect any personal data or other information from your Twitter account. Payment Data. All payment data is protected, handled and stored by Stripe. Stripe collects and processes payment information on our behalf, and we do not store or manage any credit card or banking information. When you make a purchase through our extension, your payment information (such as card numbers) is securely transmitted to Stripe. Stripe uses advanced encryption, tokenization, and other security practices to protect your data. We do not have access to your full payment information. Stripe’s Privacy Policy governs how they manage and protect your data, and you can review their policies here: https://stripe.com/privacy. HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION? Processing by Third-Party Services. The text of the tweet is sent to a third-party service which uses an AI model (e.g., OpenAI) to generate a response. The AI processes the tweet content to generate a relevant comment, but no personal data or sensitive information is shared with the third party. Purpose. The data is used solely for the purpose of generating AI-powered comments based on the tweet’s content. We do not store, retain, or use the tweet data for any other purpose. DO WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION? We do not share your information with anyone. The Extension only handles information about the tweets you are generating comments for as discussed above, and does not store this information. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE? We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of the information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect any information, usage of the Extension is at your own risk. You should only access the Extension within a secure environment. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS? In Short: Depending on your state of residence in the US or in some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), Switzerland, and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country, province, or state of residence. In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; (iv) if applicable, to data portability; and (v) not to be subject to automated decision-making. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.   If you are located in the EEA or UK and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your Member State data protection authority or UK data protection authority. If you are located in Switzerland, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner. Withdrawing your consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below. However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent. If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at contact@synctankai.com. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice. California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time. DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected.

As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice. California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time. DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

What’s Up with AI Image and Video Captioning? (Part 2)

Updated:4 days ago9Views

If you’re into creating videos or working with media, you’ve probably noticed the growing buzz around AI-powered tools like video caption generators. These tools are now smarter, faster, and more adaptable than ever before. Let’s break down what’s new and exciting in the world of AI video captioning and how it’s changing the game for creators and industries.

Smarter AI Models That Get Context Right

One of the biggest leaps forward comes from advanced AI models like GPT-4V Integration. This technology lets AI better understand visual content, making captions feel more natural and human-like. Whether it’s an action-packed movie scene or a complex educational video, these models can now handle tricky contexts and create spot-on captions.

Want to see the tech behind it? Check out this research on GPT-4V systems. And for the nerdy details, there’s also cool work being done with transformer-based neural networks and cross-modal learning, and that’s how AI connects what it sees with what it hears. Learn more about that here.

Practical Uses for Everyone

AI-powered tools like open source video caption generators are being adopted everywhere, from classrooms to streaming platforms. Here are a few ways they’re being used:

  • In Education: Imagine videos that not only transcribe lectures but highlight vocabulary or provide dual-language captions. It’s a game-changer for language learners and students. Platforms like this are already making it happen.
  • In Entertainment: Streaming giants use video auto-caption AI to deliver real-time captions in multiple languages. Bonus? Customization options let brands tweak captions to match their style. Curious how? Here’s a peek.
Performance That Keeps Up

Speed and accuracy are everything when it comes to captions. Today’s systems can generate captions for videos with a word error rate (WER) as low as 2-4%, even for tricky vocabulary. And if you’re working live, these tools keep up with real-time needs, delivering captions in just 200-300 milliseconds. If you’re into numbers, check out these benchmarks.

Integration Made Easy

For developers, API integrations are a lifesaver. Whether you’re embedding captions on YouTube, Vimeo, or your own site, platforms like Google’s video models make it seamless. Even WordPress users can get plugins to automate captions with minimal fuss.

Accessibility Matters

Accessibility is not just a trend nowadays. AI caption generators for videos now comply with strict standards like ADA and WCAG 2.1. This ensures captions are not just accurate but also synchronized and formatted correctly. You can read more about these standards here.

Big Wins in 2024

This year’s research brings exciting developments. AI is achieving near-human accuracy for captions and even tackling real-time translation in 95+ languages. It’s also getting better at recognizing emotions and understanding complex scenes, like detecting spatial relationships or sequences of actions. Want the latest findings? Here’s a source.

Thanks to advances in AI caption generators from images and videos, the tech is now 70% cheaper and 85% faster than just a few years ago. Whether you’re using a video caption generator for work or fun, this is the perfect time to explore what these tools can do.
