IBM on esitellyt uuden läpimurron optisessa teknologiassa, joka voi mullistaa datakeskusten toiminnan ja tekoälymallien koulutuksen. Yhtiö on kehittänyt uuden sukupolven CPO-tekniikan (Co-Packaged Optics). Innovaatio tuo valokuitujen tehokkuuden perinteisten kuparijohtojen sijaan myös datakeskusten sisäiseen viestintään.
IBM:n ratkaisu perustuu polymeerisiin optisiin aallonohjaimiin (PWG), jotka mahdollistavat tiedonsiirron nopeuden ja kapasiteetin valtavan kasvun. Uuden teknologian ansiosta datakeskusten GPU-prosessorikortit, jotka usein joutuvat odottamaan dataa muilta laitteilta, voivat toimia huomattavasti tehokkaammin. IBM:n mukaan CPO voivat tehdä esimerkiksi suurten kielimallien koulutuksesta jopa viisi kertaa nykyistä nopeampaa. Mallin koulutusaika voi lyhentyä kolmesta kuukaudesta kolmeen viikkoon.
Optinen teknologia tuo merkittäviä säästöjä myös energiankulutuksessa. IBM arvioi, että CPO-teknologia voi vähentää energiankulutusta yli viisi kertaa verrattuna nykyisiin sähköisiin yhteyksiin. Tämä vastaa 5 000 yhdysvaltalaisen kotitalouden vuosittaista sähkönkulutusta per koulutettu tekoälymalli.
A ban on social media for children under 16—which drew criticism from social media companies and leaders—passed the Australian senate on Thursday, poising it to become the world’s first law designed to keep young children off of social media.
Key Facts
The ban—which would allow Australia to fine companies for not preventing children younger than 16 from having accounts—passed 34 to 19 on Thursday after passing the House 102 to 13 on Wednesday, the Associated Press reported.
It’s expected to quickly become law, when it will give social media companies one year to prevent those under the age limit from having accounts or otherwise risk being fined $33 million.
Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese praised the law in an opinion piece Tuesday, positioning “Australia to lead the world” in the safety of young people.
Critics of the bill in the government expressed concerns it was rushed, and one independent lawmaker said it was a “blunt instrument” that would not actually hold social media companies accountable.
Crucial Quote
“This Bill puts the onus on social media companies—not young people, not their parents,” Albanese wrote in his opinion piece. He added the bill is about “making it clear that social media companies have a social responsibility. And sending a message to all those Mums and Dads who are worried about the impact that social media is having on their children’s wellbeing, their mental health, their confidence and sense of self.”
Though Australia’s law would be the strictest yet to limit social media use for teens, it’s not the only: a number of countries have tried to implement similar limits.
Where Else Are There Limits On Children Using Social Media?
The U.S. has the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule that requires children under 13 to provide parental consent in order for technology companies to collect data, and the European Union passed the Digital Services Act last year that attempted to give kids more protection online and prevented platforms from targeting minors with personalized ads.
