As artificial intelligence (AI) technology rapidly evolves, physical AI for industrial applications is drawing growing attention because repeatable and scalable tasks play to AI's strengths. Deloitte Taiwan has just released a full report on physical AI ahead of a physical AI seminar it is organizing in Taichung on September 15....

Hangzhou Lion Microelectronics plans to invest about CNY3 billion (approx. US$446 million) in a new 12-inch silicon wafer project in Jiaxing, expanding into a market where AI demand is lifting volumes and prices while China still relies heavily on imported large-diameter wafers....

Asustek Computer (Asus) is accelerating its artificial intelligence (AI) transformation plan, announcing the rebranding of its AIoT Business Group into the Physical AI Solutions Business Group (PAS BG), with humanoid robots positioned as an important strategic market for the future. The move underscores the company's push beyond AI servers into agentic AI, edge AI, and physical AI under the chairman Jonney Shih's AI strategy....

On August 26, the Shanghai municipal government released its 15th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Strategic Emerging Industries, setting a target for added value in strategic emerging industries to reach CNY2.1 trillion (approx. US$312.5 billion) by 2030. The plan puts ICs, biopharmaceuticals, and artificial intelligence (AI) at the center of the city's industrial strategy, while shifting policy focus from expansion to higher-value areas such as advanced chips, advanced packaging, industrial software, and critical materials....

FRANKFURT (dpa-AFX) - Der DAX könnte in der neuen Woche auf Rekordjagd bleiben. Der deutsche Leitindex startet also auf hohem Niveau in den traditionell eher schwachen Börsenmonat September. Nach der Rede von US-Notenbankchef ......

Mehrere Länder wollen rein KI-generierte Musik künftig nicht mehr für die Hitparade berücksichtigen. Dahinter steht eine Frage, die die Industrie umtreibt: Wie viel KI darf in Songs stecken?...

A move by SpaceX to manufacture turbine blades in-house could ease a global bottleneck in AI infrastructure, where power equipment is now as constrained as chips. If successful, the plan could speed data center buildouts, shift supply chains, and strengthen Musk's control over the timing of new energy capacity....

Once mocked as "computers on the nose bridge," AI smart glasses have long suffered from a trade-off between advanced AI capabilities and lightweight comfort. However, this race is set for a major turning point in 2027. Future models promise to combine powerful AI, superior thermal management, and accessible price points, offering a wearing experience so seamless that users will barely notice they are wearing AI hardware....

As global net-zero efforts intensify, governments and major technology companies are investing in emerging nuclear technologies to meet the huge electricity demand from AI data centers and the semiconductor industry. Because nuclear power offers zero-carbon emissions, small modular reactors (SMRs) are drawing growing attention as a potential new power solution in the AI era....

A Chinese autonomous driving vendor is set to take a commercial position in a market whose own robotaxi industry has yet to clear the hurdle to commercialization. Pony.ai and South Korea's FutureLink signed a strategic cooperation agreement on August 28 at the Conrad Seoul in Yeouido to introduce 200 seventh-generation robotaxis, targeting fully driverless operation in Seoul by 2028, The Asia Business Daily reported.

Federal Court Rules Sexual AI Images Of Children Are Legal To Possess Perhaps sometimes it's best for judges to ignore technical loopholes and rigid legal precedent for the sake of doing the right thing?  Maybe, in extreme cases where absolute evil is involved, our system could dismiss the "rights of artists" and enforce restrictions based on the potential long term damage to society as a whole?  Yes, the constitutional conundrums are plenty, but can't we also simply use common sense? Because if we can't, these kinds of artistic "expressions" are going to inspire independent vigilantism and it will be the fault of the courts when this inevitably happens.  A federal appeals court says a Supreme Court precedent set in 2002 forces it to protect the in-home possession of AI-generated child sexual abuse material.  The court warned that rapidly advancing technology has complicated legal lines drawn nearly 25 years ago.  The Seventh Circuit said it was bound by the Supreme...

Central Asia Resists US Pressure To Choose Sides In AI Race Authored by Eurasianet via OilPrice, Kazakhstan is continuing to expand AI cooperation with China even after joining the US-led Pax Silica initiative. Uzbekistan says it wants access to both cutting-edge American technology and lower-cost Chinese AI models rather than choosing between them. Their positions illustrate the difficulty Washington faces in persuading Central Asian governments to take sides in the intensifying US-China technology rivalry. Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are tossing figurative darts at a US trial balloon connected to the intensifying race between the United States and China for leadership in AI development. Reuters reported on August 14 that the US State Department had drafted a note stating that any nation interested in widening access to advanced American know-how and technology in the AI sector under a program known as Pax Silica must refrain from participating in a rival Chinese initiative known as the World...

India's semiconductor ambitions are expanding from packaging and testing to chip design, materials, mobile devices and data centers. New investments by CG Power, Infineon, Foxconn, Samsung and LG highlight rising industrial activity, while skills shortages, environmental constraints and import dependence remain challenges. Government incentives increasingly seek deeper domestic capabilities and higher value creation....

Tex Year is widening its specialty chemicals business beyond LCDs and electronics into AI servers, in-vehicle electronics, Mini LED, and optical lenses, while also targeting optical communications, silicon photonics (SiPh), and advanced packaging.
