DNA evidence

[Au revoir, Gopher]

Interesting read and more than a bit frightening.

Not only this, video editing has gotten terrifyingly realistic. Your face can be edited onto another body and it can look perfect.

It's way worse than that. Google deep fakes.

The technology is brand new and just getting developed and it's almost already perfect. Basically, someone taught AI how to make video edits in real time. Scary stuff.

Advances in DNA are almost like science fiction

Snapshot is a revolutionary new forensic DNA analysis service that accurately predicts the physical appearance and ancestry of an unknown person from DNA. It can also determine kinship between DNA samples out to six degrees of relatedness. Snapshot is ideal for generating investigative leads, narrowing suspect lists, and solving human remains cases.
Starting with extracted DNA or biological evidence from your case, we will produce a detailed Snapshot report and composite sketch that includes eye color, skin color, hair color, face morphology, and detailed biogeographic ancestry.

Interesting read.

I think this goes to show that nothing is fool proof, even DNA. Everything must be corroborated and backed up to ensure proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

What an extraordinary story. Thank you.

I extrapolate that this cross-cross-cross-transfer of DNA can lead to another technology in the near future: The ability to sample from a person, and extrapolate who they may have been in recent contact with, and who their contacts have been in contact with. A contact-map can be built, and adjusted for confidences and errors.
