Supply of Advanced Chips Stifled, China’s AI Development Continues

Morrissey Technology – A senior Huawei executive claims that China’s AI development will continue even if the supply of advanced chips runs low. These comments were made by Zhang Ping’an, CEO of Huawei Cloud, in response to the tightening regulations on the import of advanced AI chips by the United States, including banning the sale of advanced chips from US AI chip giant Nvidia.

“It must be admitted that we do experience limited computing power in China… However, we cannot just rely on AI chips with https://xosophuongtrang.org/ advanced manufacturing nodes as the main basis for AI infrastructure,” said Zhang at the World AI Conference forum in Shanghai, China.

“But we believe that not having the most advanced AI chip does not mean we cannot develop AI, we have to change our perspective like this,” he added.

Huawei, which is again on the American Entity List, cannot buy advanced chips from American companies, which is why they developed their own AI chip called Ascend which is now used by many Chinese companies to train their AI models.

It’s just that this Ascend chip, along with other AI chips made in China, is considered to have computing capabilities that cannot compete with AI chips made by Nvidia. But according to Zhang, this makes them innovate more in the cloud, which he says can Slot Online compensate for these shortcomings through innovation in computing architecture. Apart from that, their innovation, which combines cloud, edge computing and networking, can also save energy consumption and increase overall efficiency.

Google Reveals the Bad Effects of AI on the Environment

Morrissey Technology – Google just released its environmental impact report for 2023 and the results are worrying. Google’s greenhouse gas emissions are increasing rapidly amidst the company’s priorities now focusing on AI. According to the report, Google’s total greenhouse gas emissions have increased by 48% since 2019. Even though Google has set a target to reduce emissions by 50% by 2030.

Last year alone, Google produced 14.3 million tonnes of carbon dioxide pollution which marked a 13% increase from the previous year. This figure is equivalent to the amount of carbon dioxide emissions emitted by 38 gas-fired power plants each year.

Google said the rise in carbon dioxide pollution was influenced by electricity use in data centers and supply chain emissions. Electricity consumption, primarily from data centers, contributes nearly one million tonnes of pollution to Google’s carbon footprint by 2023.

Data centers, especially those used to train AI, require enormous amounts of electrical power. Google is currently aggressively adding generative AI features to a number of its products, and they are starting to worry about the negative effects of AI on their environmental impact reports.

“As AI becomes more integrated into our products, reducing emissions may become a challenge due to increased energy demands resulting from greater AI computing, and emissions associated with expected improvements to our technical infrastructure,” Google said.

Electricity consumption in Google data centers last year increased 17%, and the Alphabet subsidiary expects the trend to continue. According to Google estimates, its data centers will contribute almost 10% of total global electricity consumption by 2023.

To reduce AI’s detrimental impact on the environment, Google says it is trying to make its AI models, hardware, and data centers more efficient. Google also plans to use carbon pollution-free energy by 2030.

Google isn’t the only tech company concerned about the impact of AI on its environmental ambitions. Microsoft’s greenhouse gas emissions last year rose 30% compared to 2020.

A Glance at the Trends in Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Morrissey Technology – Recently, Netflix released a new, futuristic film based on the story of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, entitled “Atlas”. This film shows the dark side of AI and also the possibility of collaboration and harmonization between humans and AI, through a technology called “neurolink”.

Atlas, a fictional character in the film, represents the current skepticism of much of humanity towards the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact on real life and the future of humanity. Even though the technology in the film is actually all around us now, be it AI or neurolink, whose name and working principle are similar to the neuralink technology developed by Elon Musk.

Full name Elon Revee Musk, a well-known businessman and investor in the digital sector, born in 1971, recently received strong criticism from one of the expert scientists known as the GodFather AI, Yann Andree LeCun. According to Yann, as written on his X / Twitter account, Elon is too based on conspiracy theories and “exaggerates” when talking about AI development. According to Yann, the development of AI technology is (should) be based on research and scientific studies FOR4D.

Elon, via his X/Twitter account, has thrown back criticism by asking what contribution scientists like Yann have made to the development of AI today. Moreover, according to Elon, Yann is “just” an employee of a large corporation who must be ready to take orders. In fact, Yann, who is the Chief AI Scientist at Meta, is also a well-known Professor of Mathematics with dozens of scientific papers/technical papers that he has published, including about the development of AI technology which is now widely carried out in the world.

This debate is interesting, valid and relevant, illustrating how the point of view of a businessman and investor like Elon collides with that of a scientist and researcher like Yann. AI technology must be fully implemented by various parties, from both positive and negative sides in its development and use. Even today’s AI technology itself, because it is developing quickly and almost independently, is projected to one day be able to surpass human intelligence and control. How far have we prepared FOR4D.

AI and the Digital Divide

In the AI ​​for Good Global Summit Forum which was held in Geneva at the end of May 2024, it was stated that humanity today will not be able to avoid (the development of) AI technology. However, behind the discourse about all the goodness brought by this technology, all of us, also globally, continue to be haunted by risks and negative impacts that cannot yet be clearly measured.

Negotiations and debates are still hotly underway in countries in the Global North and Global South. One of the points is about how to develop AI ethically, of course by understanding the different conditions and ecosystems in each country.

Within the country itself, for example, amidst the big discourse on the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and the ethics of its use, Indonesia is still faced with conditions of digital infrastructure/access gaps, unequal digital literacy skills in each region and the shadow of worry about job losses due to replacement. by AI technology.

This can also be seen in the reality of urban and rural disparities. Urban areas are considered to have more opportunities to be able to keep up with AI developments better than rural areas in Indonesia.

Of course, one of the reasons is because the forums available to discuss AI issues take place more in urban areas than rural areas, as well as the intensive use of AI in various health, financial and educational services in a number of big cities.

AI and Cybercrime

AI is indeed able to present a new style of learning and working that is more effective and productive with superior results for its users in creative and positive ways. But on the other hand, AI can also “facilitate” similar things for criminals.

Returning to the film “Atlas” which was mentioned at the beginning of this article, there is a figure called “Harlan”, an AI technology with terrorist abilities and attitudes that threaten human security. It may still seem futuristic, but crimes based on AI technology are already widespread around us.

In mid-2023, for example, WormGPT, an AI-based malware, will be able to generate and spread malicious code automatically. This certainly shocked the cybersecurity world and served as a reminder that AI technology has the potential to be misused. At least, here are some crimes that use AI technology, as quoted from Technology Review.

1. Spread of Phishing

Phishing is the biggest cyber crime that is “assisted” by AI. Phishing criminals are now using AI technology to further perfect their criminal tricks. Spam generating services, such as GoMail Pro, for example, have integrated ChatGPT into their services to make it easier for criminals to interpret their fraud and send it to victims.

2. Deepfake Fraud

AI technology now allows cybercriminals to fabricate sounds, images and videos so that they appear very similar to the real thing. In an MIT Technology review of AI-based cybercrime, it was found that many platforms openly sell deepfake services at a relatively cheap price of around 160,000 per image. In Hong Kong, a finance worker at a multinational company was tricked into paying US$25 million (Rp. 392.97 billion) to a fraudster who used deepfake technology by posing as the company’s chief financial officer.

3. Jailbreak Service

This service allows criminals to manipulate AI systems. For example, writing code to create ransomware. Some AI companies, such as OpenAI and Google, have routinely installed security systems to prevent this from happening.

4. Doxxing and Spying (without rights)

AI is not only used for phishing, but is also a tool that is widely used for doxxing, for example to identify someone’s personal information online. This is because the AI ​​system is trained to retrieve data quickly from the internet, including personal data. Several researchers found that some AI technologies are capable of analyzing sensitive information such as ethnicity, a person’s location and a person’s occupation.

5. Hoax / Disinformation

AI can be used to produce highly realistic and convincing propaganda and disinformation content. This content can then be shared on social media and other online platforms to manipulate public opinion, spread hatred, or disrupt the democratic process.

6. Harassment Behavior

AI can be used to harass individuals online. AI can be used to analyze social media and other online activity to gather information about victims, and then use that information to send harassing or threatening messages. AI is also used to manipulate photos and videos of victims.

AI and Human Kindness

Not only is it a source of fear, AI is also being developed for the good of humanity. In the film “Atlas”, it is told that ultimately AI technology was used for good for the good of humanity. Apart from AI in the film Atlas, the development of AI-based technology for good is currently also being carried out in the fields of agriculture, fisheries, health, education and AI-based security.

For example, the development of AI to detect breast cancer by Google Health in collaboration with several hospitals in the UK. In Indonesia, BRIN is also developing innovative AI-based technology, including: SADEWA for weather prediction, SEMAR for fisheries and extreme weather at sea, SRIKANDI for air quality related to the health and environmental sectors, SANTANU for rain monitoring, JATAYU for aviation weather, SRIRAMA for climate change, KAMAJAYA FOR4D for the start of the season related to agriculture, INDRA for water resources and GATOTKACA for monitoring humidity or water vapor over Indonesian territory.

So, if we return to the excerpt from the debate between Elon and Yann above, it can be said that AI technology is not something that can or should be seen from just one point of view. There is a need to involve multiple stakeholders, namely government, academics, civil society, the private sector and the technical community, to ensure that the development and use of AI technology can be carried out ethically, safely and responsibly.

Each stakeholder will have varying points of view and may differ in negotiating the positives vs. negatives of AI technology. However, if we believe that differences in negotiations are a blessing, then AI will certainly be able to bring full benefits.

Facing AI, the World of Work Needs Digital Skills and Collective Bargaining

Facing AI, the World of Work Needs Digital Skills and Collective Bargaining

Morrissey Technology – The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has various impacts on humans. Especially in the employment context. So that AI can continue to provide benefits to the world of work, there needs to be collective bargaining between workers, corporations and AI technology providers.

“To ensure that AI can bring prosperity to humanity, there needs to be a serious policy regarding employment carried out through collective bargaining,” emphasized Celeste Drake, Deputy Director General of the International Labor Organization (ILO) – UN, at the Artificial Intelligence and Implications on the Indonesian Labor Market Forum.

The ILO, the UN organization that focuses on employment issues, also provides a number of additional pre-conditions, to ensure that AI does not necessarily “threaten” existing jobs.

“Efforts need to be made to ensure digital skills and lifelong learning for the workforce, so that they can then utilize AI technology,” said Celeste at the event which was also attended by ICT Watch at the invitation of ILO FOR4D – Jakarta.

He also added that adequate governance regarding the use of AI in the world of work also needs to be in place. “Which AI can be used and which should not be used, there needs to be governance,” he stressed.

According to him, with adequate AI governance, anticipatory steps can be taken to minimize discrimination against workers related to the use of AI technology or the recommendations produced by it.

The ILO is currently studying in depth and continuously whether and how AI technology can disrupt the employment sector. This is for example how algorithmic management practices are often associated with work efficiency and effectiveness, such as ranking systems, supervision and control through tracking devices, online recording of working hours, the use of various forms of work, and so on.

In a study included in ILO Working Paper 96 as of August 2023, it was shown that most jobs and industries are exposed to AI only in automation and are more likely to “supplement” rather than “replace” with the latest Generative AI technologies, such as chatGPT. Therefore, according to the ILO, the biggest impact of AI technology is likely not to be the loss of jobs, but rather the potential changes to the quality of work, especially work intensity and autonomy.

AI Image Contest Tricked by Real Photos Snapped by Photographers

Morrissey Technology – Usually internet users are confused when they see images that they think are real photos but are actually made by AI. But what happened to photographer Miles Astray was the opposite, because the photo he took was thought to be made by AI by a photography contest. Astray submitted his photo entitled ‘F L A M I ​​N G O N E’ to participate in the 1839 Color Photography FOR4D Awards photo contest. The photo was submitted in the AI ​​category, the only non-camera category in the contest.

For the non-AI category, the contest organizer will ask for proof that the photo was not created by AI as well as proof of ownership of the original file. But for the AI ​​category, the photo contest organizers do not ask for proof that the images submitted are created by AI.

Because of this, Astray can register the photos it takes in the AI ​​category. The photo was not only named third place in the AI ​​category but also won the People’s Choice Award for the AI ​​category.

At first glance, the photo registered by Astray looks like the result of an AI hallucination. The photo shows a flamingo standing on the beach but its head is not visible at all. Astray said he took the photo in Aruba at 5.00 am. He submitted the photo to the AI ​​category to prove that nature can be more surprising than machines.

“I want to show that nature can still beat machines and that there are still benefits from real work created by creative workers,” Astray told PetaPixel FOR4D.

“After seeing AI-generated images beat real photos in competitions, I started thinking about changing the story and its impact by submitting real photos to AI competitions,” he continued.

Astray immediately informed the contest organizers that the photos he submitted were not created by AI. The organizers immediately disqualified the photo because it did not meet the criteria, but they appreciated the message of Astray’s action.

“We understand the intent, but we don’t want to prevent other artists from winning in the AI ​​category. We hope this will bring awareness (and hope) to other photographers who are worried about AI,” said a spokesperson for the contest organizers.

Using AI During University Entrance Exams, Turkish Students Arrested

Morrissey Technology – A student in Turkey was arrested after being caught trying to cheat on a university entrance exam using artificial intelligence (AI) technology. This incident occurred during the Basic Ability Test (TYT) on June 8 2024, which shows how many people are willing to do various things to get university entrance tickets.

Students identified as MEE. This man had carefully planned the fraud attempt, he was known to have embedded a camera in the button of his shirt and hidden the electronic device in the lining of his shoe. MEE also managed to get past police surveillance at the entrance to the exam room, and then took the device in the restroom.

While in the exam room, MEE started taking photos of the exam questions and sent them to his friend with the initials AB. AB uses the ChatGPT platform to provide answers, which are then relayed back to the MEE headset via the router FOR4D.

Despite the elaborate scheme, the police became suspicious of MEE’s suspicious behavior and intervened. They confiscated a router disguised as a credit card, three cameras disguised as buttons, and MEE’s personal phone. Both MEE and AB were detained, and MEE faces charges that could result in prison time.

“ChatGPT not only detects written questions but also any image and if it is a question, then it can be used in any process such as solving the question. In this case, all the necessary technological mechanisms have been prepared for the system to work properly,” said IT expert Osman Demircan FOR4D.

Demircan further emphasized the dual potential of artificial intelligence and stated that artificial intelligence systems can be used for evil acts as well as for good. Extra steps should be taken to prevent this and similar cheating attempts on future exams.

Police are considering increased use of metal detectors and more thorough candidate searches to prevent such incidents.

Demircan suggested that law enforcement also monitor individuals using computers or phones near test centers and be alert to vehicles parked nearby, as they could be involved in cheating attempts.

Elon Musk Predicts All Human Jobs Will Be Taken by AI

Morrissey Technology – Elon Musk said that artificial intelligence or AI will take over human jobs. However, that is not a bad thing. Why is that?

“Probably none of us will have a job,” Elon Musk said about AI at the VivaTech technology conference in Paris.

Elon Musk also described that in the future, work will be optional, aka a choice for humans or not a necessity, as AI becomes more widespread.

“If you want to do work that is similar to a hobby, you can do it. But if not, AI and robots will provide whatever goods and services you want,” said Musk.

He explains that for this scenario to work, there needs to be a ‘universal high income’ system FOR4D. However, it should not be confused with universal basic income, although he himself does not explain what that would look like. (UBI or Universal Basic Income refers to the government giving a certain amount of money to everyone regardless of how much they earn).

“There will be no shortage of goods or services,” he added.

AI capabilities have surged over the past few years, fast enough that regulators, companies, and consumers are still looking for ways to use this technology responsibly. Concerns also continue to rise about how various industries and jobs will change as AI advances in society.

In January, researchers at MIT found that adoption of AI in some workplaces was slower than expected. They also report that many jobs thought to be vulnerable to AI are simply not economical to automate.

Experts believe that jobs that require emotional intelligence and human interaction, such as mental health professionals, creatives, and teachers, do not need to be replaced. Musk himself has voiced his concerns about AI. During his keynote speech on Thursday, he called technology his biggest fear.

He cited the ‘Culture Book Series’ by Ian Banks, a fictional utopian view of a society run by advanced technology, as the most realistic and best depiction of AI in the future.

However, in a work-free future, Musk questions whether people will feel emotionally fulfilled FOR4D.

“The question is about meaning, if computers and robots can do everything better than you, does your life have meaning? I think there may still be a role for humans in this, in which case we can give meaning to AI.” he explained.

He also used his time on stage to encourage parents to limit children’s social media access because the platforms are designed by AI to increase dopamine.

Using AI, Siri Will Become a Super Assistant in iOS 18

Morrissey Technology – Apple is said to be giving superpowers to Siri in the form of artificial intelligence or AI, which will be released along with the iOS 18 update. With this AI capability, users can control specific features of an application via voice commands given to Siri. This leak was revealed by Bloomberg in its latest report.

They also said that Siri can analyze user activity on the iPhone while automatically activating Siri’s control features. Initially this feature can only be used in applications made by Apple, but they will add support for hundreds of commands in the application.

Siri will also be able to process more than one command at a time. Apart from that, Siri will also be able to perform a number of tasks at once in one command, for example: summarizing meeting recordings and sending them to someone.

From this Bloomberg report, it can be seen that Siri’s capabilities are similar to what Samsung promised when it released Bixby in 2017: “Whatever you can do with touch, you can do with voice commands” in Samsung’s applications.

It’s not yet clear how this technology will operate. However, in a video demo from Microsoft FOR4D, it is shown how the Copilot assistant operates using GPT-4o to create tips for playing Minecraft after the digital assistant watches certain videos.

Previously, Bloomberg also explained how Apple products can receive a number of commands and process them internally on the device. Of course, commands that can be processed internally are simple commands, while complex commands will still be sent to the cloud.

Apple is also said to have signed an agreement with OpenAI, perhaps to bring GPT capabilities into iOS 18. Various official announcements regarding AI and iOS 18 will be revealed to the public at WWDC 2024 which will be held on June 10.

AI Disrupts Microsoft’s Climate Change Plans

Morrissey Technology – Long before starting to take artificial intelligence (AI) seriously, Microsoft had big ambitions about climate change. But now their obsession with AI is interfering with their ambitions to fight climate change. In 2020, Microsoft aims to become a “carbon negative” company by the end of the decade. To make that plan a reality, they want to cut greenhouse gas emissions by half, and want to clean up more carbon dioxide emissions than they produce.

Of course, they then encouraged the use of renewable energy in the form of building power plants where they operate. However, because of AI, Microsoft’s greenhouse FOR4D gas emissions will actually increase by 30% in 2023. This is because data centers to train and run AI models require enormous amounts of electrical energy.

Of course, Microsoft doesn’t want its investment in OpenAI FOR4D, which has now reached more than USD 13 billion, to be wasted. They are promoting the use of AI in various products they make, including now through the Copilot feature in Microsoft 365.

“In 2020, we unveiled what we call the carbon moonshot. That was before the explosion of artificial intelligence. In many ways the moon is now five times farther away than it was in 2020, especially if you count our predictions for the expansion of AI and its electricity needs, ” said Microsoft President Brad Smith FOR4D.

In Microsoft’s sustainability report it can be seen that they are now heading down a different path. They produced 15.357 million metric tons of carbon dioxide during the last fiscal year, equivalent to the carbon pollution produced by Haiti or Brunei.

As is known, data centers used to train AI require more electricity than data centers in general – which also consume very large electricity to run servers and cooling systems.

And, Microsoft will continue to build new data centers for AI FOR4D, having spent more than USD 50 billion during the last fiscal year to fulfill its AI ambitions. This figure is expected to increase in the current fiscal year.
