A few hours ago, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) published its Public Inquiry Report on proposed mandatory standards for the registration of prepaid mobile end users. The report outlines feedback received from both industry players and the public, alongside the Commission’s final policy position on strengthening prepaid SIM registration in Malaysia.

As you should know by now, X and xAI's Grok got into a big controversy over the past few days. Investigations were launched a few days ago, and new research reveals that Elon Musk’s Grok AI chatbot generated an estimated 3 million sexually explicit images over 11 days, including around 23000 that appear to depict children, sparking global alarm over the misuse of generative AI technology.

Advertising in ChatGPT? This day was always going to happen, but it has not rolled out yet. Today, OpenAI has published its official approach to introducing advertising within ChatGPT. According to the company’s announcement, ads will begin rolling out as tests in the United States for users on the free and new ChatGPT Go plans, while subscribers on higher-tier paid plans will remain ad-free.

As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to rise, there are still some sceptics about the EV batteries being environmentally friendly. Well, Geotab has released updated findings from its latest EV battery health study, revealing that modern EV batteries continue to perform strongly despite increasing use of high-power fast charging.

With the recent Grok controversy going on, X and xAI recently announced a policy update to prevent Grok, their AI chatbot, from generating sexualized or explicit images of real people, including requests like placing individuals in bikinis or revealing clothing. The company stated that these restrictions would apply to all users, including those in jurisdictions where such content is prohibited.

In a move that no one saw coming, Apple and Google have officially announced a collaboration that will see Google’s Gemini artificial intelligence models power future Apple Intelligence features and a more capable version of Siri later this year.

At the start of the new year, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) issued a strong warning against the misuse of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to generate harmful content online. The regulator says it has received numerous public complaints involving AI-powered image manipulation, particularly cases targeting women and minors.

According to MCMC, these incidents involve digitally altered images that result in indecent, grossly offensive, or otherwise harmful material being circulated on social platforms, including X.

In a major shift for the drone industry, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has announced that it will ban approvals for new foreign-made drones and critical components from being imported, marketed, or sold in the United States unless specifically cleared by the Department of Defense or Department of Homeland Security. This move fundamentally changes how drones built outside the U.S., including those from major manufacturers like DJI and Autel Robotics, can enter the American market.
