Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) is a wireless communication technology that utilizes the visible light spectrum (400–800 THz), similar to LED light, offering speeds up to 100 times faster than existing Wi-Fi (up to 224 Gbps). While it has fewer limitations in available frequency allocation and less radio interference, it is relatively vulnerable to security breaches as anyone can access it.

The United States is trying to decouple its economy from rivals like China. Efforts toward this include policymakers raising tariffs on Chinese goods, blocking exports of advanced technology and offering subsidies to boost American manufacturing. The goal is to reduce reliance on China for critical products in hopes that this will also protect U.S. intellectual property from theft.

Images generated by artificial intelligence (AI) are often almost indistinguishable from real images to the human eye. Watermarks—visible or invisible markers embedded in image files—may be the key to verifying whether an image was generated by AI. So-called semantic watermarks, which are embedded deep within the image generation process itself, are considered to be especially robust and hard to remove.

Like it or not, artificial intelligence has become part of daily life. Many devices—including electric razors and toothbrushes—have become "AI-powered," using machine learning algorithms to track how a person uses the device, how the device is working in real time, and provide feedback. From asking questions to an AI assistant like ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot to monitoring a daily fitness routine with a smartwatch, many people use an AI system or tool every day.

Research published in the International Journal of Applied Decision Sciences describes how artificial intelligence could be used to root out internal threats in the U.S. Army. The research centers on the Army's Insider Threat Hub, a facility that assesses the danger posed by individuals flagged for potentially harmful behavior. It then introduces a deep learning tool capable of significantly improving how such cases are prioritized and processed.
