• Just AI Weekly News Update - Week of February 3rd, 2025

  In this episode of Just AI, we take a deep dive into one of the most disruptive AI developments of the year: DeepSeek R1. How did this Chinese AI model shake the US market, wiping out nearly $593 billion in Nvidia’s stock value in a day? What makes DeepSeek’s technology so formidable, and why are governments around the world scrambling to investigate or ban it? We break down the responsible AI concerns, the global response, and why this marks a pivotal moment in AI competition. Next, in AI Policy News, Texas is making waves with HB 1709, a bold AI regulatory bill modeled after the EU AI Act. We unpack what this could mean for AI companies, civil liberties, and Texas’ $500 billion Stargate Project. Plus, we discuss a groundbreaking Ohio court ruling that threw out facial recognition evidence in a murder trial—what does this mean for AI in law enforcement? Finally, in Research Corner, we explore Jevons’ Paradox in AI—why making AI more efficient might actually increase its environmental harm rather than reduce it.
