世界人型ロボット運動会400m優勝、奇行種走り話題にTianGong Omni Wins 400m at World Humanoid Robot Sports Meet with 'Attack on Titan' Chikyōshu-style Run北京人形機器人創新中心が開発した人型ロボット「天工 Omni」が、8月23日に北京で開催された第2回世界人型ロボット運動会の400m走小型組で45秒66を記録し優勝。走り方はアニメ「進撃の巨人」の「奇行種」を連想させる独特なフォームで、SNSで話題に。アイスリボン内の青色トラックで実施され、上半身を振って前傾姿勢で走り、カーブで体を内側に傾けた。ユーザーからは「人間にはできない走り」「バランス感覚がすごい」などの声。技術分析では、上半身の回転で推進力にしたり、ジャイロ効果で安定させているとの指摘も。同シリーズの大型ロボット「天工 Ultra」は100m予選で9秒32を記録し、ウサイン・ボルトの世界記録を上回った。The TianGong Omni humanoid robot, developed by Beijing Humanoid Robotics Innovation Center, won the 400m small category at the 2nd World Humanoid Robot Sports Meet in Beijing on August 23 with a time of 45.66 seconds. Its unique running style, reminiscent of 'Chikyōshu' from the anime 'Attack on Titan', went viral on social media. The race took place on a blue track inside Beijing's Ice Ribbon speed skating venue. The robot ran with arms raised near the face, swinging left and right, leaning forward, and tilting inward during curves. Users praised its balance despite the unusual motion, while technical analyses suggested it uses upper body rotation for propulsion and gyroscopic effects for stability. The larger TianGong Ultra model also set a preliminary 100m time of 9.32 seconds, surpassing Usain Bolt's world record of 9.58 seconds.

中国、人型ロボットが100メートルで9秒32 “ボルト超え”続出の北京「世界人型ロボット運動会」Chinese robots set 9.32s 100m at Beijing World Humanoid Robot Games, surpassing Bolt北京で8月22日から26日開催の世界人型ロボット運動会は北京市政府などが主催。中国、日本、米国、ドイツなど16カ国から660超のチームが参加し、中国勢が9割を占めた。日本からはGMOインターネットグループが参加。51種目の競技には陸上100メートルやサッカー、卓球、工場作業など実用的な能力を競う項目が含まれる。100メートル走で中国の「天工」が9秒32を記録し、ウサイン・ボルトの世界記録を上回った。一方で転倒や炎上するロボットも目立った。北京では19日から23日に世界ロボット大会も開催。中国はロボット産業を新興産業の柱と位置付け、第15次5カ年計画で重点分野に掲げた。EV産業で培ったサプライチェーンやAI開発競争を進め、米FCCは中国製ロボットの輸入禁止を発表。中国はドローン輸出管理を強化し、9月の首脳会談を控え米中間の駆け引きが続く。The Beijing World Humanoid Robot Games, held from August 22-26, was organized by Beijing's government. Teams from 16 countries, including China, Japan, the US, and Germany, participated with over 660 teams, 90% Chinese. Japan's GMO Internet Group joined. Events included 51 categories like 100m, soccer, table tennis, and factory work. China's "Tiangong" robot recorded 9.32 seconds in the 100m preliminary, surpassing Usain Bolt's world record. Some robots fell or caught fire. A World Robot Conference ran from August 19-23 in Beijing. China lists robotics as a key industry in its 15th Five-Year Plan, leveraging EV supply chains and AI competition. The US FCC banned Chinese humanoid robot imports, while China tightened drone exports. Tensions continue ahead of September's US-China summit.

中国河北省で白菜にホルムアルデヒドを使用した疑いが発覚Hebei Cabbage Suspected of Formaldehyde Use中国河北省康保県政府は24日、発がん性が指摘されるホルムアルデヒドを含む溶液に白菜を浸して出荷した疑いを発表し、調査中。買い付け業者は輸送中の鮮度維持を目的としたと説明。インターネット上の告発動画を受けて関係部門が現地調査し事実を確認。捜査当局は関係者や車両を調べ、流通先を追跡中。人民日報によると、農産物へのホルムアルデヒド使用は法律で禁止されており、国務院食品安全弁公室は腐敗しやすい野菜を対象に緊急検査を各地方に指示した。Hebei Province's Kangbao County government announced on the 24th that it found cabbage soaked in carcinogenic formaldehyde-containing solution for shipment and is investigating. Buyers claimed it was to maintain freshness during transport. Based on online whistleblower videos, relevant departments sent a team to verify the facts. Authorities are investigating involved individuals and vehicles and tracking the distribution of the affected cabbage. According to People's Daily, using formaldehyde on agricultural products is illegal. The State Council's Food Safety Office has instructed localities to conduct emergency inspections on perishable vegetables.

東京の下町や浦安周辺はなぜ揺れやすい? 日本地震工学会の「揺れやすさ」マップが話題Why are Tokyo's Downtown and Urayasu Areas Prone to Shaking? Japan Society of Earthquake Engineering's 'Shakiness Map' Gains Attention日本地震工学会が公開した関東地方の「揺れやすさ」マップが話題。S波平均速度に基づき色分けされ、赤色は地盤柔らかく揺れを増幅。地図は防災科研のJ-SHISデータで、地表30mまでのS波速度を250mメッシュで表示。赤色区域は古東京湾や縄文海進による軟弱地盤。茨城県南部地震では赤色地域で震度5弱や4が観測され、都心近くの足立区や浦安市でも同震度。皇居西側の武蔵野台地は震度3で揺れが弱い。全国の地盤状況も確認可能。Japan Society of Earthquake Engineering (based in Minato Ward, Tokyo) published a 'shakiness' map for the Kanto region on its official X account. The map color-codes areas according to average S-wave velocity, with red indicating softer ground that amplifies seismic shaking. The data is sourced from the Disaster Prevention Research Institute's J-SHIS, displaying S-wave velocities from the surface to 30 meters depth in 250-meter grid cells. Red zones correspond to regions formed by ancient Tokyo Bay and the Jomon transgression, where sediment layers created soft ground. During a recent earthquake in southern Ibaraki Prefecture, red areas recorded seismic intensities of 5 weak and 4, including Tokyo's Adachi Ward and Chiba's Urayasu City despite being distant from the epicenter. The Musashino Plateau west of the Imperial Palace showed lower intensity (3). J-SHIS covers all of Japan, allowing users to search for ground conditions at specific locations.

将門塚登り動画配信、男性謝罪国税庁も「たたりの噂」Man Apologizes After Climbing Shōmonzuka Monument in Live Stream; National Tax Agency Cites 'Curse Rumors'東京都千代田区大手町の将門塚で、男性が石碑に登り「Kick」で生配信。将門塚は都指定旧跡で怨霊伝説があり、敬意を欠いた行為は避けられてきた。男性はSNSで謝罪し、史蹟将門塚保存会は警視庁に相談。国税庁サイトには、大正12年の関東大震災後、大蔵省が仮庁舎建設で塚撤去し関係者死亡、戦後米軍整地時の事故など「たたりの噂」が記載。再開発時も敷地を避けて建設された。A man climbed the Shōmonzuka monument in Tokyo's Otemachi during a live stream on Kick, prompting criticism and a subsequent apology. The site, a designated historical monument with legends of vengeful spirits, is traditionally respected. The management association reported the incident to the police. The National Tax Agency's website notes 'curse rumors,' including deaths following the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake when the Treasury Department demolished the site for a temporary office, and a bulldozer accident during post-WWII US military efforts to level the area. Nearby developments have also avoided the site's grounds.

ドコモ・バイクシェア、新ブランドへの刷新また延期 8月のシステム障害受けDocomo Bike Share Delays New Brand Refresh Again Due to August System Issuesドコモ・バイクシェア(東京都港区)は8月24日、9月1日予定の新ブランド「NOLL」刷新を延期。8月1日の仕様変更後、全国でシステム障害が発生し、自転車貸出・返却不能などの問題が発生。8月4日から全国サービス一時停止、13日に全エリア復旧。原因は利用集中時の処理能力不足。新型車両や新料金導入も延期し、新時期は未定。当初5月1日予定だったが、3月と7月13日に延期し、今回で3度目の延期。Docomo Bike Share, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, announced on August 24 that it is postponing the launch of its new brand "NOLL," which was scheduled for September 1. This decision follows system failures after a service specification change on August 1, causing nationwide issues with bike rentals and returns. Services were temporarily suspended on August 4 and fully restored by August 13. The cause was insufficient system processing capacity during peak usage. New vehicle and pricing introductions are also delayed with no new timeline. This is the third postponement; initial plan was May 1, with prior delays in March and July 13.

「うるう秒」27年に事実上廃止へ自転とのずれ「1時間」まで容認 10月に国際会議で採決Leap Seconds to be Effectively Abolished by 2027, Allowing 1-Hour Discrepancy with Earth's Rotation, Vote in October International Meeting国際度量衡総会(CGPM)が10月13~15日にフランスで開催され、うるう秒の事実上廃止案が審議される。採択されれば2027年5月20日から、原子時計と地球の自転のずれを調整するうるう秒を廃止し、連続的な協定世界時(UTC)に移行する。現在のUTCとUT1の差を最大1時間まで許容し、システム障害リスクを軽減するため。1972年以降27回実施され、全て1秒追加の調整だった。負のうるう秒の実施可能性も懸念されている。The International Committee for Weights and Measures (CGPM) will deliberate on effectively abolishing leap seconds during its October 13-15 meeting in France. If adopted, the transition to continuous Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) without leap seconds will begin on May 20, 2027, permitting a maximum 1-hour discrepancy between UTC and Earth's rotational time (UT1). This change aims to mitigate system disruptions in critical sectors such as industry, transportation, energy, communications, and space. Since 1972, 27 leap seconds have been added, with no subtractions. Experts estimate a 30% chance of needing a negative leap second by 2035, which could cause infrastructure issues.

The couple had intended to travel to Europe after retirement but repeatedly delayed due to concerns over costs exceeding 1 million yen. According to a government survey, 32.4% of people over 60 wished to spend on leisure activities, while 47.5% prioritized medical and care expenses. She now regrets not utilizing her savings for travel while they were healthy, currently taking domestic trips alone but has yet to visit Europe as she had hoped with her husband.

消費者庁、「ダークパターン」規制へ特商法改正視野に中間取りまとめ案Consumer Affairs Agency Publishes Draft Report on Dark Pattern Regulations Amid Specific Commercial Transactions Law Amendment消費者庁は8月24日、ダークパターン規制を含む中間取りまとめ案を公表。特定商取引法改正を視野に、ネット取引での誤認契約手法やSNS勧誘(2024年相談9000件、10年で20倍増)、誇大広告対策の制度法定化を提言。中国のロボット運動会で人型ロボ400m走優勝、就職SNS参考83%、将門塚登り謝罪、東京揺れやすさマップ、うるう秒27年廃止、FANZAのAIサービス発表、経産省の20兆円IP戦略、楽天ドローン支援、comicoサ終指摘、ドコモバイクシェア延期などが報じられた。The Consumer Affairs Agency announced a draft interim report on August 24 proposing regulations on 'dark patterns' and potential amendments to the Specific Commercial Transactions Law. It highlighted misleading online transaction practices like 'trial' labels leading to automatic subscriptions, noting current laws are insufficient. The report suggests broad legal rules with detailed guidelines later.

「社用PC高すぎ、中古品使おう」の注意点潜む“前の持ち主の亡霊”リスク立命館・上原教授に聞くRisks of 'Previous Owner's Ghost' in Used Business PCs, Says Ritsumeikan ProfessorPCは業務に不可欠だが、部品価格上昇で予算内で調達困難なケースも。中古PCはコストパフォーマンス良く手に入るが、OSやフォーマットでの消去ではデータが完全に消去されず、セキュリティリスクが潜む。立命館大学上原哲太郎教授によると、販売業者が適切な消去ツールを使用しているため、情報漏えいの発生確率は低い。日本ソフトウェア協会の「データ適正消去実行証明協議会」(ADEC)やBlancco社の消去証明書を確認し、認定事業者を通じて購入することが重要。個人間取引では、2019年神奈川県の事例のように注意が必要。PCs are essential business tools, but rising semiconductor and memory costs have made new PCs expensive, leading some organizations to consider used alternatives. However, simply deleting data via OS or formatting doesn't fully erase it, creating security risks. According to Ritsumeikan University's Professor Tetsuro Uehara, incidents of data leaks from used PCs are uncommon because reputable sellers use certified erasure methods. Organizations should verify erasure certificates from entities like Japan Software Association's ADEC or Blancco, and avoid personal sales on platforms like online auctions, as seen in a 2019 Kanagawa Prefecture data breach.

「不味そうすぎ」AIメニュー画像はどう作られる? AIで“岩のような唐揚げ”再現に挑戦したWhy Do AI Menu Images Look So Unappetizing? Attempting to Recreate 'Rock-Like Fried Chicken'ITmedia NEWSの週間トップ10記事で、スーパーの調理麺販促POPが注目を集めた。冷やし中華やそばなどのイラストが、麺が規則的に並びミミズの集合体のような不気味さ。AIは料理の部品を理解せず、細い線と具の統計を再現するため、構図は麺料理だがクローズアップすると得体の知れない物体に。AIに「スーパーの惣菜コーナーのPOPを作って」と指示し、冷やし中華、そばなどを指定するとミミズ麺が再現。唐揚げ定食のPOPを作ると、岩のようなゴツゴツした画像に。さらに「おいしそうに」と頼んでもゴツゴツが増し、唐揚げの形の多様性で正しく再現が難しいと判断。結局、本物の写真が最適という意見が強まっている。ITmedia's weekly top 10 articles featured a supermarket's cooked noodle promotional POP that went viral on social media. AI-generated images of cold ramen and soba showed noodles arranged in uniform curves, creating an eerie, earthworm-like appearance. The AI does not comprehend food components but replicates statistical visual patterns, leading to dishes that look unnatural upon closer inspection. When instructed to create a 'supermarket prepared food section POP' with specified dishes like cold ramen and soba, the AI reproduced the unsettling noodle images. Attempts to generate fried chicken resulted in rock-like textures, which worsened even when asked to make it 'more appetizing' due to the complexity of fried chicken's shape. This highlights the AI's difficulty in accurately representing diverse food forms, leading to the conclusion that real photographs are more effective for promotional materials.

“メタボ”が脳にゴミを詰まらせる?「においが分かりにくい」経て認知症へ米大学が新説Metabolic Syndrome Blocks Brain's Waste Clearance, Leading to Smell Loss and Dementia, Study Finds米テキサス大学ヘルスサイエンスセンター・サンアントニオ校とメソジスト病院の研究者らが、メタボリックシンドロームが脳の老廃物排出ルート(グリンパティック系)を塞ぎ、嗅覚障害を引き起こし認知症へ進行進展する可能性を示した。代謝異常で自律神経が乱れ鼻の血管が拡張しリンリンパ管が圧迫され排出が滞る。有害タンパク質が嗅覚神経周辺に蓄積し、嗅覚障害が先に現れその後認知機能障害へと進展。うつ病や外傷性脳損傷、統合失調症、自閉スペクトラム症などでも同様の現象が見られる。Researchers from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and Methodist Hospital published a paper in Frontiers in Neuroscience proposing metabolic syndrome blocks the brain's glymphatic system, causing smell dysfunction and cognitive impairment. Metabolic abnormalities disrupt autonomic nervous system balance, causing nasal blood vessel dilation and lymphatic compression, hindering waste removal. Toxic protein buildup around olfactory nerves leads to smell issues first, followed by cognitive decline. The phenomenon is also observed in depression, traumatic brain injury, schizophrenia, and autism.
