Sennheiser launches MKH 8030 figure-of-eight RF condenser microphone

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, July 22, 2024  — Sennheiser’s long-awaited MKH 8030 RF condenser microphone with figure-of-eight pick-up pattern is available now. The MKH 8030 not only unlocks M-S, double M-S, and Blumlein stereo recording options, but is also a great choice wherever the highest attenuation of neighbouring sound sources is required – be it a PA system whose sound needs to be eliminated or an adjacent instrument that must not be picked up. The sound signature of the MKH 8030 has been carefully engineered to blend in harmoniously with the sound of the existing MKH 8000 series microphones.

“We are thrilled to finally launch the MKH 8030, a microphone that the MKH user community has been anticipating for quite a few years,” shares Kai Lange, Product Manager Professional, Wire-bound. “The extremely compact 8030 is ideal for field recording, sports and general broadcasting, theatres, orchestral recordings and studio music.”

Sennheiser’s MKH 8000 family of RF condenser microphones

The MKH 8030 joins the MKH 8020 (omni-directional), MKH 8090 (wide cardioid), MKH 8040 (cardioid), MKH 8050 (super-cardioid), MKH 8060 (short shotgun, super-cardioid/lobar) and MKH 8070 (long shotgun, lobar) RF condenser microphones. Also part of the family is the MKH 800 TWIN, a dual-capsule microphone whose pick-up pattern can be seamlessly adjusted at the mixing desk during recording, or even after the actual recording during post-production.

Their special RF condenser principle and the symmetrical capsule design endows MKH 8000 series microphones with a combination of advantages that can only be found in this series: Remarkable sensitivity paired with durability in adverse climatic conditions, wide frequency response, a fully floating, balanced output signal, low self-noise, and a natural, coherent sound image with no off-axis colouration.

These features enable sound recordists and engineers to capture a sound event in its entirety and with all its intricate detail, with wide dynamics, extremely low distortion, and a largely frequency-independent polar pattern. “The MKH 8000 family are tools for creating natural sound of the highest quality and detail,” adds Lange.

New accessories for the MKH 8000 series

To accommodate the left/right orientation of the MKH 8030, the MZE extension tubes of the series have been updated and fitted with a rotatable head, while the MZGE 8000 tube connector has been improved, now featuring a more robust design. New in the accessory portfolio is the MZH 8042 gooseneck, which brings the exceptional audio quality of a connected MKH microphone, for example the MKH 8040, to the lectern.

Turnitin Helps Educators and Publishers Advance Critical Thinking with New AI Paraphrasing Detection Feature

Bengaluru– July 19, 2024 –Turnitin, a leading provider of technology solutions in academic integrity, announced its AI paraphrasing detection feature. Integrated within Turnitin’s AI writing capabilities, the feature helps educators and publishers identify when AI paraphrasing tools may have been used to modify AI-generated text to avoid detection.

Turnitin Primary Logo RGB

With the proliferation of generative AI tools, ensuring original critical thinking in education and research writing has become increasingly challenging. Writers, including students and researchers, may use AI paraphrasing to modify AI-generated text created by large language models, leading educators and publishers to believe that the work is original. A recent study conducted by Tyton Partners* found that students continue to lead educators and administrators in their use of generative AI tools. Fifty-nine percent of students are regular users, monthly or more, compared to approximately 40 percent of educators and administrators.

Turnitin’s AI paraphrasing detection feature helps address this issue by identifying instances where AI paraphrasing may have been used to modify AI-generated text. The AI paraphrasing detection feature enables educators and researchers to initiate constructive conversations with writers about the importance of ethical writing practices and proper paraphrasing techniques.

“AI has incredible potential to benefit education but writers need to be transparent in how they use Generative AI,” said Annie Chechitelli, chief product officer, Turnitin. “Applying AI paraphrasing to AI-generated content is likely a sign that the writer is trying to hide their use of AI, which is the opposite of transparency. Turnitin provides the tools and insights to preserve the value of original work.”

In early 2023, Turnitin launched its AI writing detector and report, leveraging over 25 years of experience in understanding and safeguarding academic writing. Of the over 200 million papers reviewed* since the launch, Turnitin data shows:

  •  Over 22 million papers (approximately 11 percent of over 200 million) have at least 20 percent AI writing present**
  • Over six million papers (approximately 3 percent of over 200 million) have at least 80 percent AI writing present**

Turnitin’s AI writing detection is part of Turnitin Originality, providing users with a seamless experience. iThenticate users can access it by licensing AI writing capabilities separately. When AI writing detection is enabled, including AI paraphrasing detection, it automatically checks each submission for both AI writing and AI paraphrasing. Turnitin’s AI paraphrasing detection feature highlights where within the submission a text spinner was likely applied to AI writing, giving insights into how the writing was constructed. It shows an overall percentage of the document that was likely AI-generated, including both a breakdown percentage of text that was likely AI-generated and text that was likely AI-generated and may have also been AI paraphrased.

Since its launch, Turnitin’s AI writing detection feature has supported academic integrity in an ever-changing educational landscape. It has been recognized by the 2024 Bett Awards in the “AI in education” category and named Best in Show by Tech & Learning at ISTE 2023.

Jambo Expands to Solana with Tether to Bring Blockchain Mobile Technology to Emerging Markets

Lagos, July 17, 2024 – Today, Jambo, the largest web3 mobile infrastructure bringing emerging markets on-chain, announced that it’s expanding to the Solana blockchain along with Tether to offer blockchain-enabled financial and educational technologies that cater to emerging markets.

Jambo Expands to Solana - 5

Central to this is the JamboPhone, a $99 web3 smartphone that has been powerful in onboarding all types of users on-chain in a mobile-first way. Combined with the Solana blockchain’s high throughput capabilities and Tether’s dominant stablecoin, USDT, access to web3 financial and educational products will be democratized to those who need them most in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

Introducing the JamboPhone

Available in over 120 countries, the JamboPhone is targeted towards Gen Z consumers in emerging markets as their portal to the best digital products and opportunities globally. Users can engage with the global economy by utilizing the preloaded Jambo Ecosystem applications featuring DeFi, gaming, and web3 infrastructure applications. The JamboPhone aims to address some of the most challenging issues faced by emerging markets, such as a large unbanked population and limited access to smartphones.
