AI Empowers Copyright Protection – Blockchain-based AIGC Multimedia Digital Watermarking Solution

CITIC Telecom CPC’s Research and Development team participated in XuperCore Open Source Blockchain Innovation Competition jointly organized by OpenAtom Foundation, Industry and Information Technology Department of Jiangsu and Baidu Online Network Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd, clinching the second prize in Innovation Application Challenge with its AIGC-Blockchain Integrated Solutions. This provincial competition requires participating teams to apply blockchain scenarios in their innovative solutions as submission entries. CITIC Telecom CPC integrates blockchain and digital watermarking technologies to develop a copyright protection solution for AI Generative Content (AIGC) works, providing highly-efficient and reliable solutions for AIGC’s copyright management and regulatory compliance needs.

Enhances Copyright Protection and Monitoring Capabilities to Address Local Compliance Requirements

With the rapid development of AIGC applications, the demand for copyright protection, data privacy and regulatory compliance has increased around the world. Several countries and industries have formulated and proposed different policies on AI generative content. AIGC-Blockchain Integrated Solutions utilize the uniqueness of Nonce value in blockchain transactions to generate digital watermarks and embed it into AIGC works to enable the decoupling of copyright information and digital watermark being recorded in blockchain while interoperating with each other to ensure copyright protection and fast tracking. This solution has broad applications particularly for AI generative multimedia content platforms, supporting multiple types of AI generative works (photos, videos, audios, etc.) and facilitating quick copyright certification as well as improving monitoring efficiency. The solution can also work with smart assistants to record and limit data access through smart contracts on blockchain, raising the security and credibility of large models.

Indonesia Ready to Lead Water Governance Transformation at the 10th World Water Forum

JAKARTA, April 23, 2024 – (ACN Newswire) – The Indonesian government, according to the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), believes that the 10th World Water Forum, Bali 2024, will be able to generate political consensus among participating heads of state, and achieve the agreements necessary to address the global climate challenge.

The Forum, the largest gathering in the water sector, involves various stakeholders and is co-hosted by the World Water Council and a host city. Held every three years, it has been taking place since 1997, with participants from politics, multilateral institutions, academia, civil society and the private sector.

The Government of the Republic of Indonesia will host the 10th World Water Forum in Bali from 18–25 May 2024. The National Organizing Committee (NOC) is chaired by the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut B. Pandjaitan, while the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), Basuki Hadimuljono, will serve as Daily Chairperson.

This year’s Forum will be attended by numerous heads of state, with several former world leaders expressing their intention to be present, considering it necessary to attend. These include the former Presidents of Chile, Hungary, Slovenia, Malawi, Sri Lanka, and Costa Rica. The former Prime Ministers of Belgium, Korea, and Bhutan will also be present.

“With the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we have been making efforts to ensure that as many world leaders are in attendance as possible,” said Endra S. Atmawidjaja, Expert Member, Ministry of PUPR, in Jakarta. “Indonesia has achieved success in water governance with local cultural approaches. The Forum involves the various stakeholders, and therefore benefits from best practices implemented by Indonesia, an example for the global community.

“For example, the Subak system in Bali, which has been recognized by UNESCO for its irrigation governance with local wisdom, or Lake Bratan, also in Bali. The Grand Forest Park (Tahura), and the importance of mangroves in supporting water management. These are examples that world leaders and delegates can directly observe,” said Endra.

“Domestic and international media are crucial, as they contribute to the forum’s success and serve as a bridge to disseminate the importance of water management for the sustainability of life in the future. We invite the media to observe and convey the many examples of water governance that we have implemented. From Indonesia to the world,” he added.

The 10th World Water Forum: Main Themes

The 10th World Water Forum in Bali will carry a main theme of “Water for Shared Prosperity.” This gathering of leaders will address and discuss water issues while seeking collective solutions to water governance challenges. The forum will produce a Ministerial Declaration (MD) as a main output, along with concrete deliverables (projects, initiatives, joint actions). 

Indonesia will forward four proposals for the Ministerial Declaration (MD), including the establishment of a Centre of Excellence on Water and Climate Resilience (COE), mainstreaming Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) on Small Islands, and the designation of World Lake Day (WLD). Additionally, the MD will include a Compendium of Concrete Deliverables and Actions, an initiative for the follow-up to the 10th World Water Forum.
