For better or worse, AI can now figure out what you’re doing even without “seeing” you [medium.com]. The MIT Computer Science & AI Lab (CSAIL [mit.edu]) has unveiled a neural network model that can detect human actions through walls or in extremely dark places.

Using RF in the "WiFi" bands. 25 hours of data was all it took ( / all they collected ) to train and test.
