    Google DeepMind releases Forest Typology (ForTy) 2020 global forest type map

    Google DeepMind and Google Research jointly release the Forest Typology (ForTy) 2020 Global Map, which classifies every 10x10 meter land on Earth into six types of forests and land use, and tracks changes from 2017 to 2025. The map is based on definitions by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, accurately distinguishing native forests, plantations, monoculture forest plantations, economic crop forests, and other land types, supporting the EU's deforestation regulations with an accuracy of 90%.

    Hidden storage costs of AI: data storage overheads overlooked behind reasoning

    In corporate AI inference costs, data storage overhead is often overlooked. After each model response, a large amount of backend data needs to be stored, including logs, caches, backups, etc., which is 130 times the size of the output files users see. McKinsey predicts that by 2030, AI inference demand will account for 40% of total data center demand, and nearly 95% of IT decision-makers report that data volume has increased by generative AI in the past year.

    Walmart invites AI intelligent entities to shop on its website

    Walmart will allow users to connect their AI agents to shop on its website, where users can approve and review purchases and set spending limits. The agents will connect to a new 'Agent Profile,' with all purchases requiring user approval by default, but budgets can also be set (e.g., up to $100). Walmart will establish an 'Agent Gateway,' connecting agents via the Model Context Protocol to prevent them from accessing users' shopping history and personal information.
