China to rein in AI chat
Alibaba just released a new AI chatbot called Tongyi Qianwen, or "seeking truth by asking a thousand questions." But China is clamping down on companies doing cutting-edge AI work, fearing it could subjugate "state control." And, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres is visiting Somalia as part of a UN effort to support the drought-stricken nation. Nearly 5 million people are experiencing acute food insecurity, partially due to climate change caused by wealthier nations, according to the UN. Also, US President Joe Biden begins a four-day trip to Ireland on Tuesday, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement. In the past month, the terrorism level in the region was raised to severe. Plus, the wife of a jailed Chinese dissident speaks out.
