🤖 Healthcare Privacy, Carbon Crisis & Regulatory Battles
28 Jun 2025
Today's AI Daily explores critical developments reshaping our technological landscape. We examine the NHS's controversial plan to DNA test all babies using AI for disease prediction, raising serious questions about consent and data ownership. Google's carbon emissions have surged 51% since 2019 due to AI's massive energy demands, with researchers warning AI could consume as much power as Japan by 2026. Meanwhile, US Republicans push legislation to block state AI regulations as Harvard warns unrestricted AI growth could add one billion tons of CO2 emissions in the next decade. We also discuss how pop culture reflects our evolving AI perceptions through M3gan 2.0's transformation from horror to comedy, and examine concerning trends of industry-backed researchers using AI to question environmental science. These stories highlight the urgent need for balanced approaches to AI governance that consider privacy, environmental impact, and scientific integrity.Subscribe to our daily newsletter: news.60sec.siteLove AI?
