    China to tighten control on exports of AI chip-making materials

    Cointelegraph, 07/04/23. The Chinese government has announced plans to implement export controls on specific metals used in the production of semiconductors for artificial intelligence (AI) systems. The controls are intended to safeguard national security interests and require a government-issued license for the export of designated gallium and germanium products. Starting from August 1, eight gallium-related products and six germanium products will be subject to these controls. Violators who export these products without authorization or in excess will face penalties. These measures come as China seeks to protect its semiconductor supply chain and explore alternatives amid restrictions imposed by other countries.READ THE ARTICLE

    Debunking AI Myths: The Truth Behind 5 Common Misconceptions

    Forbes, 07/04/23. Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently a hot topic, with generative AI apps like ChatGPT gaining immense popularity. However, there are misconceptions surrounding this technology. Firstly, AI is not truly intelligent but rather a mechanical simulation of human intelligence. Most of what we refer to as AI today is machine learning, where algorithms are trained to perform specific tasks. While AI has been considered expensive and difficult to implement, cloud platforms now make it accessible and affordable. Concerns about AI taking over jobs are valid, but new opportunities will also arise. Additionally, AI is not inherently neutral or unbiased, as it is trained on biased human-curated data. Lastly, fears of AI enslaving humans are unfounded, as current AI systems lack the capability for harm and self-preservation. It is important to understand and regulate AI ethically to harness its potential for the benefit of society.READ THE ARTICLE
