Popular mobile game 'Justice of剑侠情缘' has collaborated with Ke Ling AI to introduce a brand-new 'Live Photo' feature. This function aims to enable players to create personalized moving images more easily. Through simple operations, static images can be transformed into dynamic scenes, adding more fun to the game. Players simply need to open the 'Live Photo Creation' feature under the 'Film Crew Mode' in the game to start this creative journey. Users can choose to take screenshots in the game or upload existing images and enter the desired effect description. The system will generate the output based on the input instructions.

Amidst the wildfires ravaging California, Jim Fan, a scientist from Nvidia, the world's largest artificial intelligence chip manufacturer, proposed using AI robots to combat the flames. However, this suggestion has raised concerns about environmental impact. Fan shared a video on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), showcasing a humanoid robot walking down the streets of China. In his comments, he praised the robot's 'style' and made a call to action.

With the rapid development of generative AI technology, the amount of e-waste generated is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. A global research analysis predicts that by 2030, AI-related e-waste will skyrocket from 2,600 tons in 2023 to 2.5 million tons. This figure is equivalent to nearly two discarded iPhones for each of the 8.5 billion people worldwide, raising serious concerns about environmental impacts.

Recently, the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) introduced new requirements in the field of corporate compliance, particularly concerning the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). As more businesses begin to leverage AI technology, this new regulation undoubtedly adds extra pressure on compliance officers. Companies now need to carefully consider the legal risks associated with AI, or else they may face hefty fines.

Recently, an analysis by The Guardian revealed that there may be serious misleading practices by tech companies in handling the environmental impact of their AI data centers. The emission data reported by tech giants like Microsoft, Google, Meta, and Apple significantly diverges from reality. According to this analysis, the actual emissions from these companies are 662% higher than the figures they officially disclose, and this is just the tip of the iceberg, as this study only covers data from 2020 to 2022.

In 2023, the influence of fast fashion giant Shein has spread globally. Thousands of flights rapidly deliver its ultra-low-priced clothing from suppliers to tens of millions of customers, with '#sheinhaul' videos going viral on social media, attracting billions of views. However, behind this apparent prosperity lies a significant issue regarding environmental sustainability. Shein utilizes proprietary machine learning applications to monitor customer preferences in real-time and predict demand, satisfying these needs through an ultra-fast supply chain.

The US Justice Department is investigating Nvidia's acquisition of Israeli AI startup Run:ai, suspecting that it may violate antitrust laws. In April of this year, Nvidia announced the acquisition but did not disclose the price, which is estimated to be around $700 million. The Justice Department has inquired about the transaction's competitive impacts from market participants, but the scope of the investigation is unclear. Nvidia stated that it complies with the law, supports industry innovation, and is willing to provide any necessary information. Run:ai has not responded to requests for comment. US regulators are ramping up scrutiny of anticompetitive behavior in the AI sector, particularly concerning large tech companies.

In the continuous development of the AI field, people are beginning to worry about the impact of AI on Earth, particularly its high energy consumption and carbon emissions. The latest research shows that generative AI queries consume much more energy than traditional search engine requests, up to four to five times the energy of traditional operations. Especially, the energy required for image generation tasks is much higher than that of text-based operations. According to research by Morgan Sta

The Justice Department intensifies its regulation of artificial intelligence, warning that companies abusing it will face severe penalties. The Deputy Attorney General mentioned that evaluating compliance programs will consider technology risk management. A lawsuit has been filed against a former Google engineer, highlighting the dangers posed by the misuse of AI. Companies are urged to strengthen their management practices, with warnings that violations will result in legal consequences.

Virginia Tech has released a report indicating that ChatGPT exhibits bias in environmental justice issues. The study found that ChatGPT is more likely to provide information related to environmental justice for densely populated states, while less populated rural states lack equivalent access to such information. The research calls for further studies to uncover the geographic biases of the ChatGPT model. Previous research has also indicated that ChatGPT may have political biases.

Recent research warns that the power demand of artificial intelligence (AI) will grow rapidly, potentially reaching 850 to 1,340 terawatt hours per year by 2027, equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of some countries. Experts are calling for tech giants like OpenAI and Google to reassess their high-energy operational practices to reduce environmental costs. California has signed a climate disclosure bill requiring companies to report their carbon emissions, but the AI sector remains self-regulated. For sustainable development, the AI field needs more innovation and attention to meet its growing power demands.

The latest research indicates that the carbon emissions from literary and artistic works completed by artificial intelligence systems such as ChatGPT, BLOOM, DALL-E2, and Midjourney are significantly lower than those of human creators. This study found that AI can generate useful text and images while emitting 3 to 4 orders of magnitude less carbon dioxide. Researchers suggested that 'the carbon emission per image produced by AI image creation is 310 to 2900 times less than that of human creators.' However, the study also acknowledges that the emission data is incomplete.
