Al Rihla in Arabic means “a journey,” and perhaps this was one of the epic journeys of the technologically loaded football.
The FIFA World Cup official match ball, Al Rihla, has been launched into space and back in a football frenzy to garner attraction to the ongoing World Cup in Qatar.
From space to the football pitch. We brought the official football for FIFA World Cup Qatar, becoming part of this historical out-of-the-world journey together with.
The rules will go into effect starting in 2023.
China has issued rules and guidelines that regulate the use of artificial intelligence within the country. The regulations are cautious when it comes to AI. This includes the trending AI chatbots, such as ChatGPT, AI-generated art, the many methods of utilizing AI in the health care sector and all forms of artificial intelligence, in general.
The Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC), has issued a set of rules to follow when incorporating AI. The CAC is the internet regulator and censor in China. The agency released guidelines on “deep synthesis”. The regulatory measures will take effect starting on Jan. 10, 2023.

You’ve probably heard of it by now: ChatGPT, a new AI powered chatbot has taken the Internet by storm. And it’s good. Scary good.
We asked it to make us a shopping list for a dinner party, write some recipes, and estimate the cost of the ingredients.
It did it.

In the piece I explore some of the emerging tech that will impact our coming year. Thank you for reading and sharing!
2022 was a transformative year for technological innovation and digital transformation. The trend will continue as the pace of innovation and development of potentially disruptive emerging technologies exponentially increases every year. The question arises, what lies ahead for tech for us to learn and experience in 2023?

Could video streaming be as bad for the climate as driving a car? Calculating Internet’s hidden carbon footprint.
We are used to thinking that going digital means going green. While that is true for some activities — for example, making a video call to the other side of the ocean is better than flying there — the situation is subtler in many other cases. For example, driving a small car to the movie theatre with a friend may have lower carbon emissions than streaming the same movie alone at home.
How do we reach this conclusion? Surprisingly, making these estimates is fairly complicated.

Using a chip-based optical frequency comb, researchers transmitted almost double the global internet traffic in a single second.
Such a device could help address climate change and food scarcity, or break the Internet. Will the U.S. or China get there first?
If you’re one of the billions of people who have posted pictures of themselves on social media over the past decade, it may be time to rethink that behavior. New AI image-generation technology allows anyone to save a handful of photos (or video frames) of you, then train AI to create realistic fake photos that show you doing embarrassing or illegal things. Not everyone may be at risk, but everyone should know about it.
Photographs have always been subject to falsifications—first in darkrooms with scissors and paste and then via Adobe Photoshop through pixels. But it took a great deal of skill to pull off convincingly. Today, creating convincing photorealistic fakes has become almost trivial.
Once an AI model learns how to render someone, their image becomes a software plaything. The AI can create images of them in infinite quantities. And the AI model can be shared, allowing other people to create images of that person as well.
Silicon Valley has been obsessed with ChatGPT since it launched on Nov. 30. The clever chatbot, created by Elon Musk-founded startup OpenAI, has racked up more than a million users in its first five days and is likely to report strong engagement as people dive deeper into the charms of its impressive AI.
You can chat with it for free at chat.openai.com and ask it anything it deems appropriate. It doesn’t have access to the internet and can only respond based on the data set it was trained on, but its answers can be quite imaginative.
The Tesla and SpaceX founder is always the hero in this chatbot sensation’s stories.
