As generative artificial intelligence technology is expected to be applied to various industries, greater efforts are needed to fend off rising potential cyberattacks and safeguard cybersecutiry, participants said at the 2024 Beijing Cyber Security Conference.

Chinese cybersecurity company Qi-Anxin Technology Group has launched an initiative with more than 60 leading tech companies, including Lenovo Group, Dawning Information Industry Co and ZTE Corp, to jointly promote the safe, healthy, orderly and sustainable development of AI technology and bolster its application in a wide range of industries at the conference.

The initiative also includes accelerating the innovation and adoption of digital security technology and improving the level of digital security governance in order to ensure the data security of governments, enterprises, and individuals and facilitate the development of the digital economy.

Wu Yunkun, president of Qi-Anxin, said the fast-developing generative AI could be used to identify and decide potential cybersecurity risks, ensure the safe operation of networks and enhance cybersecurity response capabilities. 

The company has rolled out a large language model targeting the cybersecurity industry to deal with potential cyberattacks.

Industry experts also called for efforts to establish a cybersecurity protection mechanism, as well as commonly-used and open-source cybersecurity standards and operating systems to realize data sharing and improve cybersecurity governance.

Chinese research team creates tiny, wireless brain sensor

Image
  Chinese researchers have developed a sesame seed-sized, biodegradable and wireless brain sensor that could potentially transform the way brain conditions are monitored in patients with head injuries or tumors. The conventional method used to measure intracranial pressure, temperature and other brain health barometers is inserting a wired sensor into the brain. Implantation and removal of the device require surgery, and openings left in the skin during monitoring increase the risk of infection. To address these problems, researchers at Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan, Hubei province, along with those from Tong Ji Hospital in the city and Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, created a cubeshaped wireless sensor measuring 2 millimeters on each side. The tiny tube can be injected under the skull through a needle and operated through an external ultrasound probe, eliminating the need for invasive operations and preventing infections. Because the implant is

On Monday morning, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for the first time delivered four college admission letters issued by the South China University of Technology to the hands of four students in the Chinese city of Guangzhou. The drone trip took about 30 minutes, covering 25 km, forming a new scenario for China's UAV application. "I was amazed to see my admission letter sent by a drone. It was like a movie scene coming to real life," said Wang. Guangzhou Post, the drone operator, has been delivering college admission letters for over 40 years, handling about 550,000 letters annually. "In the future, more students can experience technological advancement with their

SHENZHEN - In an automotive factory, silver humanoid robots stride along assembly lines, conducting tasks once performed exclusively by humans -- from car scanning to seatbelt inspection and affixing labels onto vehicles. This is not a scene from a sci-fi movie, but a collaboration between UBTECH, a Shenzhen-based robotics firm, and Chinese electric carmaker NIO, highlighting the rapid advancement in China's humanoid robot industry. As competition intensifies among manufacturers, humanoid robots are increasingly being integrated into various sectors, with industrial applications leading the charge. Earlier this month, UBTECH announced it would work with FAW-Volkswagen, one of China's earliest joint venture automakers, to develop an unmanned car factory. This initiative aims to deploy UBTECH's industrial humanoid robot, Walker S, at FAW-Volkswagen's plant in East
