AACHEN, GERMANY – Newsaktuell – 10 July 2025 – Vehicle development doesn’t end with technical readiness: The road to global market launches is only complete once homologation has been successfully achieved. The increasing complexity of national regulations poses growing challenges to OEMs and suppliers. FEV addresses these with an innovative, AI-based approach: The company-wide used ‘FEV GenAI Hub’ significantly simplifies and accelerates the analysis of regulatory requirements across different global markets, offering time and cost savings that can provide customers with a decisive competitive edge.

“In the case of type-approval, we use our in-house AI platform, the ‘FEV GenAI Hub’, to extract, enrich, and analyze legal texts from standards and laws in a fully automated process,” said Dr. Thomas Hülshorst, Group Vice President Intelligent Mobility & Software at FEV. “This enables precise comparisons of regional requirements and identifies any deviations. The platform immediately generates recommendations to ensure legal compliance.”

Significant efficiency gains

In practice, FEV has reduced the time required for comprehensive regulatory analysis from several months to just a few weeks. The AI supports engineers with semantic searches, automated classification, and gap analysis—saving time and reducing the risk of human error.

Customers benefit from:

• Time savings: Reduces analysis time by up to 60%
• Cost savings: Cuts resource requirements by up to 50%
• Scalability: Enables comparison of regulatory requirements across global markets
• Safety: Identifies homologation risks early and provides actionable recommendations

Future-oriented use of AI

FEV’s GenAI Hub serves as a central platform for generative AI in vehicle development. Starting with homologation today, future platform generations will enable additional automation in system development, test management, and project controlling. The goal: Streamline development processes, enhance safety, and increase market orientation to give customers a decisive competitive edge.

Trend Micro uncovers the criminal playbook for deepfake-enabled cybercrime

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 10 July 2025 – Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global cybersecurity leader, today released a new report exposing the scale and maturity of deepfake-enabled cybercrime. As generative AI tools become more powerful, affordable, and accessible, cybercriminals are rapidly adopting them to support attacks, ranging from business fraud to extortion and identity theft.

To read the full report, Deepfake it ’til You Make It: A Comprehensive View of the New AI Criminal Toolset, please visit: https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/hk/security/news/cybercrime-and-digital-threats/deepfake-it-til-you-make-it-a-comprehensive-view-of-the-new-ai-criminal-toolset

The report shows how deepfakes have moved beyond hype into real-world exploitation, undermining digital trust, exposing companies to new risks, and accelerating the business models of cybercriminals.

Tony Lee, Head of Consulting, Hong Kong & Macau, at Trend: “AI-generated media is not just a future risk, it’s a real business threat. We’re seeing executives impersonated, hiring processes compromised, and financial safeguards bypassed with alarming ease. This research is a wake up call—if businesses are not proactively preparing for the deepfake era, they’re already behind. In a world where seeing is no longer believing, digital trust must be rebuilt from the ground up.”

The research found that threat actors no longer need underground expertise to launch convincing attacks. Instead, they are using off-the-shelf video, audio, and image generation platforms, many of which are marketed to content creators, to generate realistic deepfakes that deceive both individuals and organizations. These tools are inexpensive, easy to use, and increasingly capable of bypassing identity verification systems and security controls.

The report outlines a growing cybercriminal ecosystem where these platforms are used to execute convincing scams, including:

• CEO fraud has become increasingly harder to detect as attackers use deepfake audio or video to impersonate senior leaders in real-time meetings.
• Recruitment processes are being compromised by fake candidates who use AI to pass interviews and gain unauthorized access to internal systems.
• Financial services firms are seeing a surge in deepfake attempts to bypass KYC (Know Your Customer) checks, enabling anonymous money laundering through falsified credentials.

The criminal underground is actively trading tutorials, toolkits, and services to streamline these operations. From step-by-step playbooks for bypassing onboarding procedures to plug-and-play face-swapping tools, the barrier to entry is now minimal.

As deepfake-enabled scams grow in frequency and complexity, businesses are urged to take proactive steps to minimize their risk exposure and protect their people and processes. This includes educating staff on social engineering risks, reviewing authentication workflows, and exploring detection solutions for synthetic media.Hashtag: #trendmicro #trendvisionone #visionone #cybersecurity

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 10 July 2025 – At the esteemed United Nations-led AI for Good Global Summit 2025, SenseRobot President Mark Ma delivered an insightful session titled “How Chess-Inspired AI Can Empower Human Learning.” The presentation marked SenseRobot’s debut on such a prestigious global United Nations platform; it served as a significant global showcase of China’s original AI technologies, reflecting the depth, wisdom, and ethical dimensions intrinsic to Chinese innovation.

How AI Enhances Learning, Family Bonds, and Inclusion—Not Replaces Them

In his engaging address, Mark raised a Central question: Can AI truly replace human learning, or can it deepen it? Drawing inspiration from chess, Mark demonstrated how SenseRobot effectively employs AI-powered robots to support cognitive development among young learners, foster meaningful intergenerational connections within families, and promote inclusive engagement for people with disabilities.

Mark emphasized that AI technology integrates mathematical precision, strategic reasoning, and accumulated human insight, resulting in a form of artificial intelligence deeply embedded in human experience and ethics. Highlighting the landmark accomplishments of AlphaGo alongside SenseRobot’s practical use in educational and familial settings, he emphasized a transformative shift: perceiving AI not as a replacement, but as a collaborative ally in human development.

The accompanying exhibition at the summit prominently showcased SenseRobot’s advanced technological capabilities, drawing widespread interest from attendees and international media alike. Featured products included the SenseRobot Chess Edition, the Go Edition, and the innovative two-in-one Chess-Go Robot, each demonstrating remarkable technical strengths such as millimeter-level robotic arm precision, high accuracy AI vision algorithms (99.9% recognition accuracy), and sophisticated hand-eye coordination. SenseRobot also exhibited its multi-level AI competence and its advanced Apex Duel mode, surpassing human champion-level chess performance.

From China to the World: SenseRobot’s Mission for Ethical, Human-Centered Technology

SenseRobot’s influential presence at the AI for Good Conference marked a significant milestone in its global expansion strategy. Already active in more than 20 countries across Asia, Europe, and North America, SenseRobot exemplifies China’s dedication to equitable education, cultural dialogue, and inclusive technology adoption worldwide.

Looking ahead, SenseRobot continues to pursue its vision of human-centered technology. By blending innovation with tradition, data with empathy, and robotics with ethics, SenseRobot embodies a pioneering narrative in AI: technology created by people, designed for people’s enrichment.
