Musk hints at or sues OpenAI
In an interview on Monday, Tesla and Twitter CEO Elon Musk talked about how he unfortunately helped create OpenAI. During the interview, a netizen commented on Twitter that he was watching the interview and believed that Musk may have been deceived by his previous participation in the founding of OpenAI. He asked: "Why didn't Elon Musk sue OpenAI for cheating him? It seemed like a certainty." A few hours later, Musk responded with only three words: "Wait and see..." .
Musk has criticized OpenAI on several occasions, saying that OpenAI has shown political bias and may need regulation, and even signed a joint letter asking OpenAI to suspend the development of artificial intelligence stronger than GPT-4. Musk also said that he wanted to run OpenAI himself, but the company's co-founder and current CEO Sam Altman and others rejected his proposal. (Sina Technology)
Apple is falling behind in the AI race
News on April 19th, right now, the global competition for generative artificial intelligence (AI) has become fierce, but there is a technology giant that remains silent, and it is Apple. Microsoft has invested $10 billion in ChatGPT developer OpenAI and reconfigured the way the company builds server farms to accommodate more of Nvidia's advanced processors for AI training. Meanwhile, Google has made tackling ChatGPT a top priority. E-commerce giant Amazon has also entered the fray with its cloud computing division. By all accounts, Apple has squandered the lead it has built since becoming the first major tech company to develop an AI voice assistant. Siri was clearly flawed from the start, but by ChatGPT's standards, it's old-fashioned now. In February, Apple held an internal AI summit to discuss machine learning and other deployments of the technology on Apple products, but there was no sign of developing generative AI.

The latest industry report: ChatGPT may expose confidential corporate information
Companies using generative artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT could be putting customer information and commercial secrets at risk, Israeli cybersecurity firm Team8 said in a new report this week. The report noted that the widespread adoption of new AI-powered chatbots and collaboration tools could expose some companies to data breaches and legal risks. Many are now worried that hackers may use artificial intelligence chat tools to obtain sensitive corporate information or launch attacks on companies. In addition, the confidential information currently fed to chatbots may also be used by AI companies in the future. (Financial Association)

"Other social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn will continue to provide services," Microsoft said. In response to this, Musk tweeted accusing Microsoft of illegally using Twitter data for AI training and threatened to sue Microsoft. (Sina Technology)
Japanese government uses ChatGPT to draft regulatory documents
Japan's Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) recently announced that it will use ChatGPT to draft regulatory documents. A spokesman for the agency said they are testing chatbots to simplify official documents and make them easier to understand. "We will not let ChatGPT access confidential information, only handle it. public information.” The department plans to use ChatGPT to update online guides that help users complete things like applying for government aid. In addition, the agency needs to revise thousands of pages of regulatory documents every year, and ChatGPT will greatly reduce the workload.
Robots will also "die suddenly" when they work overtime, falling to the ground after working for 20 hours in a row
Recently, when the ProMat2023 International Logistics and Supply Chain Exhibition was held in Chicago, a robot named Digit suddenly fell down during a demonstration. The robot, designed and built by Agility Robotics, is used to move boxes and perform other tasks in a warehouse. According to reports, the robot worked continuously for 20 hours during the exhibition, but suddenly fell to the ground during the normal handling of items and completely shut down. Officials say Digit has a 99% success rate, but there were still several failures during the 20-hour demonstration. In addition, Agility Robotics also stated that although there is no evidence, they believe that the fall was carefully planned by the marketing team to prove the durability of the product and the ability to quickly replace limbs.
Zuckerberg is addicted to layoffs, Meta is about to lay off another 4,000 people
Meta expects another round of mass layoffs on Wednesday. The size of this round of layoffs may be within 4,000 people. In March, Zuckerberg said the company would cut another 10,000 jobs in the next few months. Previously, the company had laid off 11,000 workers in November. Zuckerberg said the layoffs in April would affect the technology unit, while another round of layoffs planned in May would affect the company's business unit. Meta had about 86,000 employees at the end of last year. Meta's ongoing layoffs are part of Zuckerberg's plan to make 2023 a "year of efficiency."

Node.js 20 released
Node.js now has an experimental feature called the permission model. It allows developers to restrict access to specific resources during program execution, such as file system operations, child process spawning, and worker thread creation. When it is enabled, access to all available permissions is restricted. By using this feature, developers can prevent their applications from accessing or modifying sensitive data or running potentially harmful code. Node.js 20's permission control feature lets developers restrict access to specific resources during program execution, such as file system operations, child process spawning, and worker thread creation. Other changes in this version include upgrading the V8 JavaScript engine to 11.3, requiring the WASI version to be specified, etc. Details: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.0.0
Wasmer 3.2.0 released
