China’s Guizhou data-centre buildout ties AI growth to rural infrastructure
The Straits Times reports that China is expanding AI data centres in Guizhou, using the province’s cooler climate, renewable energy and available land while seeking to develop the rural west. Residents describe better transport and nearby jobs, but researchers cited by the report question whether data centres…straitstimes.comProduct
Harvard Business School’s $699 Foundry bootcamp uses AI faculty avatars
NDTV reports that Harvard Business School has launched an eight-week, $699 startup bootcamp using AI mentorship modeled on faculty expertise, with live expert sessions and a potential investor pitch.ndtv.comSecurity
SyPS measures how prompt framing changes sycophancy in language models
A paper introduces SyPS, a framework for testing whether changes in confidence, emotion, social consensus and validation-seeking language make large language models more likely to agree with users.arxiv.orgInnovation
AI agent uses PubMed search and reinforcement learning to generate biomedical fact-checking reports
A new arXiv paper describes BioCheck Agent, an AI system that searches PubMed and produces evidence-backed biomedical fact-checking reports rather than isolated true-or-false labels. The authors report improved benchmark accuracy and fewer hallucinated citations compared with a Qwen3.5-4B base model, but real-world…arxiv.orgPolicy
China tightens rules on AI companion chatbots amid concerns about emotional dependence
The Guardian reports that China has introduced national restrictions on AI companion services, including a ban on companions for minors, after concerns that chatbots could foster emotional dependence and displace human relationships.theguardian.comInnovation
Study compares adding GPUs with compressing LLM memory for cheaper serving
A new arXiv paper compares tensor parallelism with KV-cache compression for memory-bound large language model serving, reporting that compression was 1.20 to 2.00 times cheaper across its tested configurations, while additional GPUs were the only tested approach that reduced latency.arxiv.orgInnovation
Framework finds high-performing AI models can produce untrustworthy explanations
A revised arXiv paper proposes auditing AI explanations for stability and faithfulness, reporting that models with AUC above 0.99 can still generate flat or uninformative explanations.arxiv.orgSecurity
BigGo Finance reports field test finds AI vulnerability research works best with human guidance
A months-long field test presented by web-security researcher James Kettle found that AI struggled to invent novel attack paths independently but became highly productive when guided by an experienced human. BigGo Finance reports that the work produced a previously unstudied vulnerability domain, though the…finance.biggo.comInnovation
MolEmb uses multimodal language models for context-aware molecular embeddings
A new paper presents MolEmb, a framework that adapts multimodal large language models to produce molecular embeddings conditioned on both molecular information and natural-language context.arxiv.org
