Recently, the renowned media outlet The New York Times sent a cease-and-desist letter to an AI startup named Perplexity, demanding that the company stop using its content. This news was first reported by The Wall Street Journal and has drawn widespread attention. In fact, this is not the first time The New York Times has clashed with AI companies over content usage issues. Last year, the paper filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, accusing it of illegally using their content while training AI models.

According to a report by Kyodo News on the 29th, Japan is facing a serious declining birthrate issue, with the number of marriages in 2023 dropping below 500,000 for the first time, marking a new low in 90 years. To tackle this challenge, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has developed an AI matchmaking software called 'TOKYO Connect,' which was fully launched in September this year. The core feature of this software is its ability to use artificial intelligence for matching. Users are required to complete 110 questions on values and personality traits, after which the AI recommends highly compatible matches. Once matched, users can communicate through the software and arrange offline meetings.

China's first fully self-developed video model, Vidu, created by Shengshu Technology and Tsinghua University, introduces the 'Subject Reference' feature to ensure character consistency in AI-generated videos. Users can upload images, and Vidu maintains consistency across various scenes. This free feature marks a new era in AI video creation, aiming for precise multi-subject interaction and style uniformity. Director Shi Yuxiang praised its enhanc....

Recently, a study on misinformation from Harvard Kennedy School found that fake research papers generated by artificial intelligence are infiltrating academic search engines like Google Scholar. This could undermine public trust in scientific discoveries and disrupt product development in industries that rely on cutting-edge research.

Google is leveraging artificial intelligence technology to analyze sound data, aiming to predict and detect health issues early, particularly tuberculosis. In partnership with Indian startup Salcit Technologies, the plan is to integrate this innovative technology into smartphones for easier use in resource-limited areas. This method can assist in diagnosing health conditions through simple audio like cough sounds. Google's ongoing exploration in the health sector, including disease detection through olfactory technology, demonstrates its commitment to enhancing health management capabilities through technological means.

Researcher Naphtali Deutsch discovered that hundreds of open-source large language model (LLM) building servers and dozens of vector databases are leaking large amounts of sensitive information. This problem arises from companies neglecting the security of related tools in their haste to integrate AI into their workflows. By hacking into 438 Flowise servers, he revealed stored sensitive data, including GitHub access tokens, OpenAI API keys, Flowise passwords, and API keys. Additionally, he found...

The Medical Faculty and Hospital of the University of Cologne have jointly developed an AI-based digital pathology platform aimed at accelerating and enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of automated analysis of lung cancer tissue slices. This platform uses artificial intelligence technology to analyze pathological slices, which not only speeds up the diagnostic process but also identifies changes related to specific molecules, providing patients with personalized treatment options. This technological innovation revolutionizes traditional pathology examination methods by digitizing slices, allowing pathologists to analyze them on computer screens, improving efficiency and laying the groundwork for the deep application of artificial intelligence.

Recently, Google has introduced various practical tools in the field of artificial intelligence, such as historical search, tag organization, and tag comparison. The latest highlight is the introduction of the AI assistant 'BlueBuddy' for the Chromebook series, specifically designed to assist users in resolving Bluetooth device connection issues. Users simply need to input their questions, and the system will recommend solutions. This feature may be referred to as 'Troubleshooting with AI', providing options like adapters, devices, and debug logs. This assistant is planned to be launched in ChromeOS, but it is currently unknown if it will be available for all Chromebooks.

Nvidia has encountered engineering challenges during the launch of its next-generation AI chip series Blackwell, leading to delays in the product release schedule and affecting market expectations. The main issue arises from the need to redesign an AI accelerator for compatibility with the Hopper H100 chip, as well as a processor combined with a graphics card that cannot be mass-produced due to technical problems. These challenges highlight the complexity of the technology innovation process. As a result, Nvidia's stock price dropped by 6.4%, while competitor AMD's stock price rose by 1.8%.

On July 31, Kuaishou issued a statement regarding the counterfeit behavior of 'Keling AI' that has emerged on online platforms, reminding users to identify the genuine and prevent losses due to fraud. The statement pointed out that various forms of counterfeit behavior currently exist: some fake apps are circulating on websites and app stores; some websites misuse the Keling AI or Kuaishou logos to mislead users; and some accounts impersonate official accounts on social media platforms.

The Claude team has caused a major uproar due to their large-scale, unauthorized data scraping activities. Their crawler accessed the iFixit servers one million times within 24 hours, scraping a significant amount of website content, leading to severe resource strain on the servers, which triggered strong dissatisfaction from both the affected company and the public. iFixit explicitly prohibits data scraping on their website, yet the Claude team's actions disregarded these rules, resulting in months of illegal access to the site. This incident not only disrupted iFixit's normal operations but also impacted other entities reliant on website content.

Meta's AI assistant falsely reported a nonexistent assassination attempt on former President Trump, leading to widespread discussion and regret from Meta executives. The misleading response was caused by programming limitations initially set to avoid addressing questions about Trump's assassination, but after these restrictions were removed, the AI still provided incorrect information in some instances. This phenomenon, known as 'hallucination,' is a common challenge faced by generative artificial intelligence. Similar issues have also plagued Google, whose search autocomplete feature was criticized for censoring Trump-related queries.

In the tech field, a 'cat and mouse game' is unfolding between developers and management regarding the use of AI coding tools. While 15% of companies have banned these tools, nearly all development teams (99%) continue to use them in secret, with only 29% of companies establishing governance mechanisms. This phenomenon highlights the challenges faced in managing AI tools, particularly the growing severity of security issues. 80% of respondents express concerns about potential threats, especially the 'hallucination' problem generated by AI. 47% of respondents are open to allowing AI to make unsupervised code changes.
