The MIIT revealed in August that China’s computing power has reached 197 EFLOPS this year, up from 180 EFLOPS in 2022. The ministry said it ranks China as second behind the United States, but did not elaborate on the scale of the U.S. computing power it referenced. According to the plan, China aims to build out more data centres across the country to facilitate businesses' access to computing power. Expansive but less populated provinces in China such as southwestern Guizhou have long been tasked to establish massive data centres to power the country’s internet. For example, Apple (AAPL.O) has set up data centres in Guizhou with a local partner to serve its users in the country.

The American Opportunity Index analyzes massive data sets of career histories, job postings and wages to describe the real-world experiences of millions of U.S. workers. Photo: Spencer Platt/Getty ImagesIn the aftermath of World War II, as America’s industrial economy was taking shape, management scholar Peter Drucker worried whether business was up to meeting one of its most important responsibilities: offering “equal opportunities for advancement.”“Although the opportunities are infinitely great in a big organization, the chances of being overlooked and the danger of being misplaced and forgotten in a corner are even greater,” Drucker wrote in his 1946 book “Concept of the Corporation.” Every company, he added, “has to find ways of giving its workers…a chance to show what they can do.”

Her comments come after Ukraine was reported to have had foreign-provided weapons stolen last year. The stolen weapons included a grenade launcher and a machine gun, and were taken by Russians who had joined a volunteer battalion, per the outlet. The Pentagon report, dated October 6, 2022, said the theft occurred in June 2022, per CNN. AdvertisementAdvertisementThis Pentagon report didn't explicitly say that the stolen weapons were American. These plots were eventually foiled or disrupted by Ukraine's intelligence services, and the equipment was recovered, the Pentagon report said, per CNN.

Priscilla Chan and husband Mark Zuckerberg announced plans to eradicate human disease by 2100. One researcher's excited by the potential, but said it'll likely take lots of time and money to complete. The data could be used to make new discoveries that completely eliminate human disease, Chan and Zuckerberg said in a statement. The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, the couple's LLC, told The Register that they plan to have their product running by 2024. "AlphaFold has sparked a wave of innovation by showing people what's possible," Chris Bahl, the chief scientist at AI Proteins, previously told Insider.

A data breach at Tesla led to the leak of 75,735 people's personal information. German publication Handelsblatt reported in May that it had obtained confidential Tesla information. The information included names, addresses, cell phone numbers, and email addresses. A massive data breach at Tesla leaked the personal information of more than 75,000 people and was the result of "insider wrongdoing," the carmaker said. The outlet said it had spent months examining the data, which included over 23,000 files from 2015 to 2022.

Washington CNN —The US government plans to rein in the vast data broker industry with new, privacy-focused regulations that aim to safeguard millions of Americans’ personal information from data breaches, violent criminals and even artificial intelligence chatbots. The potential rules, which are not yet public or final, could bar data brokers from selling certain types of consumer information — including a person’s income or their criminal and payment history — except in specific circumstances, the CFPB said. The push could also see new restrictions on the sale of personal information such as Social Security numbers, names and addresses, which the CFPB said data brokers often buy from the major credit reporting bureaus to create their own profiles on individual consumers. The announcement follows an agency study into the data broker industry this year that found widespread concerns about how consumer data is being collected, used and shared. The CFPB isn’t the only US agency clamping down on the massive data industry.

He fed the LLM data from a terminal and asked it to filter its findings through top academic literature and fund managers. Building on the knowledgeIn his earlier experiments, Patel and his team manually pasted increments of stock data into ChatGPT's text box. Using Julius AI, Patel was able to input data for over 6,800 stocks to see if the outcomes or accuracy would change. The metrics Patel chose to input were based on company fundamentals that he felt were important when picking stocks. Patel concluded that whether it's a human analyst or AI that's picking stocks, there are no guarantees in the stock market.

Big Tech companies also prey on ordinary users. It’s time to rein in Big Tech. In 1975 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission took on nuclear power, and in 1977 the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission took on electric generation and transmission. We need a nimble, adaptable, new agency with expertise, resources and authority to do the same for Big Tech. Our legislation would guarantee common-sense safeguards for everyone who uses tech platforms.

CNN —The plant-based milk market is exploding, offering beverages made from seeds, nuts, legumes, grains and blends of those ingredients, often marketed as ready replacements for the traditional choice of cow’s milk. The study analyzed nutrition labels and ingredients for 233 plant-based milk products from 23 different manufacturers and found only 28 of the beverages had as much or more protein, vitamin D and calcium as cow’s milk. “Most of the plant milk products fall between the level of 1% and skim milk in terms of saturated fat,” Johnson said. “As a person who studies the microbiome, however, I wouldn’t recommend plant-based milk products for fiber yet. “About a third of the plant-based milk products have sugar or added sugar in quantities that’s more similar to a flavored milk like a strawberry or chocolate milk,” Johnson said.

The Federal Trade Commission is investigating ChatGPT-maker OpenAI to understand if the company has violated consumer protection laws. The Washington Post, which first reported the news, published the FTC's 20-page civil investigative demand (CID), similar to a subpoena outlining key focuses of the probe. A source familiar with the matter confirmed the authenticity of the document to CNBC. The FTC and other agencies have emphasized that they already have legal authority to pursue harm created by AI. The document also asks how OpenAI assesses risk in LLMs and how it monitors and deals with misleading or disparaging statements about people.

Google was working on an AI-powered mobile chatbot app for Gen Z users that features interactive digital characters, CNBC has learned. However, the company recently "deprioritized" those efforts amid an internal reorganization, according to materials seen by CNBC. Typically, when a product is deprioritized at Google, work on it ceases. Called "Bubble Characters," the app featured a choice of a talking digital character that would interact in conversations with Gen Z users, according to internal documentation viewed by CNBC. The Gen Z chatbot was one among a range of AI-powered projects using Google's large language models in the last several months.

The area has several data centers that use lots of water. In 2021, all the company's data centers consumed 4.34 billion gallons of water. But these data centers have a part to play in Arizona's water shortage. Why do big tech companies build data centers in the middle of a desert? Microsoft said in 2021 that its Arizona data centers would use "zero water" for cooling using adiabatic cooling, which uses outside air instead of water.

"Cambridge Analytica" (2018): The British consulting firm had been around for years, but bombshell reporting by The New York Times and The Guardian in 2018 sparked a scandal. Obama went on to defeat Republican presidential nominee John McCain en route to becoming the nation's first Black president. "Trump gets impeached twice" (2021): President Donald Trump became the first president to be impeached twice in the wake of the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot. Video later showed that Rice, who was 12 years old, was killed within two seconds of officers arriving, The New York Times reported.

June 20 (Reuters) - Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co (HPE) (HPE.N) on Tuesday said that it is rolling out a cloud computing service designed to power artificial intelligence systems similar to ChatGPT. That shift toward AI is shaking up the cloud computing market because data centers must be built very differently to handle such work. In a typical cloud computing data center, software is used to chop up a single physical server into many smaller "virtual" machines that can then be rented out to customers. But data centers for artificial intelligence take an opposite approach. Justin Hotard, executive vice president and general manager of HPE's high-performance computing and artificial intelligence unit, said the company will use its experience in supercomputers to offer a service specifically for what are called large language models, the technology behind services like ChatGPT.

Neuroscientists at the University of Texas in Austin have figured out a way to translate scans of brain activity into words using the very same artificial intelligence technology that powers the groundbreaking chatbot ChatGPT. Before entering the fMRI machine, CNN correspondent Donie O'Sullivan was given specialized earphones to listen to an audiobook during his brain scan. While the technology is still in its infancy and shows great promise, the limitations might be a source of relief to some. While the technology at the moment only works in very limited cases, that might not always be the case. “Technology can improve and that could change how well we can decode and change whether decoders require a person’s cooperation.”

Global supply chains grew overwhelmed as they struggled to deliver. But Prange said most of his supply chain had stabilized - meaning he was able to get most of what he needed - by the end of 2021. "One of the headwinds is inflation," said Kevin Austin, the supply chain chief for Toyota Motor North America. Meanwhile, the global supply chain snarls of the pandemic have diminished. The New York Fed's Global Supply Chain Pressure Index ticked down to a reading of -1.32 in April, compared to a revised -1.15 in March.
Take-Two Interactive soared 13% on Thursday after the company offered strong guidance that suggests a 2024 release for Grand Theft Auto 6. While the company expects its fiscal 2024 net booking to be as much as $5.55 billion, it expects its fiscal 2025 net bookings to surge to more than $8 billion. Take-Two's fiscal 2024 year is in calendar-year 2023, while its fiscal 2025 year is in calendar-year 2024. Take-Two's Grand Theft Auto series has been wildly successful, with the 2013 release of Grand Theft Auto 5 driving lifetime unit sales of 180 million. Investors got a taste of what Grand Theft Auto 6 could look like after a massive data leak in September 2022 led to gameplay videos being posted online.
Using this insight, the researchers are able to successfully predict an individual's long-term success with just a small amount of information about that person's initial attempts. Indeed, in another recent study, Wang himself found that an early career setback often set up scientists for later success. In all three datasets, an individual's second-to-last attempt did tend have a higher probability of success than their very first effort. Rather, there's a singular learning threshold that separates eventual successes from the rest. "Thomas Edison said, 'people give up because they don't know how close they are to success,'" Wang explains.
"Although these tools are novel, they are not exempt from existing rules, and the F.T.C. In the op-ed, Khan detailed several ways AI might be used to harm consumers or the market that she believes federal enforcers should be looking for. One possible effect enforcers should look out for, according to Khan, is the impact of only a few firms controlling the raw materials needed to deploy AI tools. Khan also warned that AI tools used to set prices "can facilitate collusive behavior that unfairly inflates prices — as well as forms of precisely targeted price discrimination." Khan also warned that generative AI "risks turbocharging fraud" by creating authentic-sounding messages.
He said Google is using AI to improve the conversion rate of ads and reduce the amount of "toxic text" that goes into AI models. "There will be a small number of companies that want to invest that time and money and we will be one of them at Amazon," Jassy said. A concept he's particularly excited about is "AI agents," which often refer to AI programs that can carry out goals. "At this point we are no longer behind in building out our AI infrastructure," Zuckerberg said. Zuckerberg said the company would need to "continue investing," but would do so after it launches its generative AI products and gets a better grasp on the resources required.
Training GPT-3 requires water to stave off the heat produced during the computational process. Every 20 to 50 questions, ChatGPT servers need to "drink" the equivalent of a 16.9 oz water bottle. While training GPT-3 in its data centers, Microsoft was estimated to have used 700,000 liters — or about 185,000 gallons — of fresh water. When asked about LaMDA's water usage, Google pointed to a November 2022 report that published 2021 data on the broad consumption of water across data centers. "While it is impossible to know the actual water footprint without detailed information from Google, our estimate shows that the total water footprint of training LaMDA is in the order of million liters," the researchers wrote.
Some companies use AI to pay workers "different amount for the same amount of work," per new research. As companies adopt AI, she's concerned these practices could become prevalent in other industries. According to Dubal, companies like Amazon and Uber have "massive data sets" on the contract workers using their delivery or rideshare platforms, including when they work, for how long, and what kind of pay they've taken for past jobs. One Uber driver Dubal interviewed, Domingo, recalled being one ride of short of unlocking a $100 bonus one evening, but then said he experienced 45 minutes of "dead time" in a popular area before he was able to get another ride. Dubal described the alleged variable pay system as the "gamblification of work," a sentiment other gig workers shared.
