AI Chip Exports Face New Hurdles in U.S.China Relations

As part of the Biden administrations efforts to stop the export of AI chips, the U.S. plans to place harsher controls on American chipmakers, banning

As part of the Biden administrations efforts to stop the export of AI chips, the U.S. plans to place harsher controls on American chipmakers, banning them from selling semiconductors to China that circumvent government prohibitions. These new regulations will require that companies record shipments of artificial intelligence AI chips and, in some cases, prohibit AI chips slightly below current technical parameters. They will be added to the current limits on exporting advanced chips and chipmaking equipment to China. Although the Biden administration has claimed concerns about national security, these regulations risk disrupting diplomatic ties between the United States and China. Read More..

Canon Takes on ASML with GameChanging Semiconductor Tech

Canon, a company best known for its printers and cameras, has launched a "nanoimprint lithography" method to compete with ASML, a Dutch semiconductor

Canon, a company best known for its printers and cameras, has launched a "nanoimprint lithography" method to compete with ASML, a Dutch semiconductor manufacturing behemoth. The most recent iPhones from Apple are made with semiconductors made by TSMC using EUV lithography equipment from ASML. The USChina tech conflict involves these devices. The manufacture of semiconductors at 5 nanometers and below is possible because of ASMLs EUV technology. Canon claims that the FPA1200NZ2C machine can produce as small as 2nm semiconductors. Historically concentrating on cameras and optical equipment, Canon is entering the semiconductor supply chain to suit industry demands. Read More..

The airline has kept the breachs size and date of discovery a secret. Read More..

Google Protects Users from AI Copyright Claims

Google has declared its intent to defend users of generative AI systems within the Google Cloud and Workspace platforms from claims of infringement on

Google has declared its intent to defend users of generative AI systems within the Google Cloud and Workspace platforms from claims of infringement on intellectual property. This comes after similar promises made by Microsoft, Adobe, and other tech behemoths that have significantly invested in generative AI. The new company policy applies to software like Vertex AI and Duet AI. It covers both the training of AI systems and the content they produce. It does not apply when users blatantly violate someone elses rights. System owners have been the primary targets of generative AI lawsuits, with AI defendants claiming that training data is permitted under U.S. copyright law as a fair use. Read More..

A U.S. judge heard arguments against Montanas distinctive TikTok ban, scheduled to go into force on January 1. Chinas ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, sued the state, claiming the restriction was against the First Amendment. The judge questioned Montanas assertion that the prohibition was required to protect user data, calling it "paternalistic." He also questioned the bans underlying tenet, according to which consumers were unaware of the hazards to their data. The judge plans to make a swift decision. The Solicitor General of Montana justified the prohibition by asserting that states might take separate action. In the meantime, TikTok is being sued in Utah, Indiana, and Arkansas for similar child safety issues. Read More..

China Unveils Stricter Rules to Safeguard AI Data

A blocklist of data sources not allowed for AI training has also been recommended as a security rule for generative artificial intelligence AI service

A blocklist of data sources not allowed for AI training has also been recommended as a security rule for generative artificial intelligence AI services in China. The National Information Security Standardisation Committee released the guidelines, which included representatives from the Chinese Cyberspace Administration and other organisations. They demand a security evaluation of the data used to train generative AI models accessible to the general public, blocking anything with more than 5% of illegal or harmful information. Data that promotes terrorism and violence undermines socialism, damages the nations reputation, or shatters the sense of unity within the country is prohibited. The rules seek to guarantee user consent, data quality, and the competitiveness of Chinas AI industry by 2030 with that of the United States. Read More..

Tech Titans Unite Against Record DDoS Attack Threat

The internets largestever denial of service DDoS attack was successfully defended against Google, Amazon, and Cloudflare, raising concern about a novel, potentially disruptive method. Alphabet Inc.s Google successfully prevented an assault over seven times greater than the previous record. A DDoS attack that was three times bigger than any prior one was seen by Cloudflare. The online services branch of Amazon also acknowledged a success. These widespread attacks started in late August and used an HTTP/2 flaw that leaves servers more open to malicious requests. To lessen this threat, the companies advise updating web servers, and the source of the attacks is yet unknown. Unchecked DDoS attacks have the potential to impair operations seriously. The "Mirai" network attack in 2016 caused significant websites to drop. Read More..
