Elon Musk's xAI is set to sign the 'Safety Chapter' of the European Union AI code, a significant development in the regulation of artificial intelligence across the continent. The move comes as the EU continues to establish guidelines for the use of AI in various industries. This step aims to ensure that AI systems are designed and developed with safety and security in mind, particularly in areas such as healthcare and transportation.
Mark Zuckerberg is shifting Meta's focus to personal intelligence, highlighting the importance of AI safety. Former High Court judge P.N. Desai has submitted a probe report on an alleged scam in Karnataka involving MUDA. A low-pressure system may bring very light rain or drizzle to Hyderabad. The US has imposed a 25% tariff plus penalty on India's textile, IT, auto, and pharma industries. Google's DeepMind has developed the AlphaEarth AI model, which maps the planet like a virtual satellite.
Mark Zuckerberg has announced plans to build a "personal superintelligence" that will help people rather than replace jobs. In a video and written manifesto, he emphasized the importance of AI being used for human benefit, distinct from centralizing automation of valuable work.
A medical AI system was tested against 21 experienced physicians from the UK and US, achieving an accuracy rate of up to 85.5% in diagnosing patient cases, surpassing human doctors by roughly four times. The system also reduced costs by ordering fewer scans and tests, while its creators believe it can improve healthcare speed, accuracy, and personalization without replacing human doctors.
AI technology may threaten the livelihoods of many artists, according to George Howard, a professor at Berklee College of Music. This warning suggests that AI could potentially replace human artists, putting their ability to sustain themselves in the creative industry at risk.
Tech billionaire Scott Farquhar has defended the adoption of artificial intelligence, saying it can bring in significant revenue for Australia through data centers. He co-founded Atlassian, which recently cut 150 jobs in customer services roles that were exposed to new technology. Farquhar argued that AI companies should be allowed to mine data more freely as part of a productivity blueprint, potentially reducing the need for call center staff.
Bloomberg has launched a new rule governing the use of artificial intelligence in courtrooms, aiming to ensure its safe and effective integration into the judicial system. The rule, which took effect on July 23, 2025, requires judges to consider the potential biases and limitations of AI-generated evidence before accepting it as valid. Gary Marchant, an Arizona State University College of Law professor, has expressed concerns about the use of AI in courtrooms, highlighting the need for caution and careful consideration to avoid its hazards.
China's efforts to limit its share in the global AI hardware market have led to accelerated indigenous innovation, with Chinese firms exploiting regulatory loopholes through "rife" smuggling and circumvention. However, China faces challenges such as a closed internet and general issues of trust when using Chinese tech. At the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC), Premier Li Qiang emphasized the risks of AI and pledged to share technology with other nations, including developing countries. This contrasts with US President Donald Trump's "AI Action Plan" aimed at cementing US dominance in the field. China released its own action plan at WAIC, but details on a new organization for international AI cooperation remain unclear due to lack of information from the Chinese foreign ministry. Analyst Grace Shao notes that AI is still in its infancy stage and there should not be a definitive conclusion on who is "winning" yet.
China's embodied intelligence market is expected to reach $738.69 million by 2025, driven by AI integration in physical entities. The development of intelligent robots is transforming industries and daily life, with China at the forefront.
