DQ Institute

Access to digital skills is essential to bridging the digital divide and empowering communities. The DQ Institute is tackling this with a digital skills framework and national strategy that promotes lifelong learning, local relevance, and online safety. We're excited to be featured in the United Nations Development Programme - UNDP's "Digital Inclusion Playbook 2.0", which outlines a holistic, multi-stakeholder strategy for ensuring no country or community is excluded from digital participation, leveraging global insights and collaboration to address the opportunities and risks posed by AI and technological advancements.

The Digital Technology Knowledge Network Association (D-TECH), together with the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (MDES), the National Digital Economy and Society Agency (ONDE), the National Statistical Office, and over 10 partner organizations, has announced its commitment to driving the Digital Vaccine Powered by DQ project to create digitally literate citizens with international standards under the concept of "Thai Digital Citizen Alliance".

We’ve been working closely with GCF (Global Cybersecurity Forum), UNICEF, ITU, and WeProtect, and we successfully launched the CPC Summit (Child Protection in Cyberspace). This initiative stems from a public commitment made by the Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, in 2020.

What made this CPC Summit particularly meaningful is that it happened right after this year’s UNGA, where 193 nations approved the Pact for the Future and the Global Digital Compact (GDC). This is a huge step forward, as child online protection and digital literacy education for all have now become official global commitments.

ChatGPT talks like a person. And apparently, drinks water like a person, too.

As the popularity of OpenAI's ChatGPT continues to soar, a new research study unveils an intriguing facet of the AI's daily routine - its hydration habits. 🤖💦

According to the researchers from the University of Colorado Riverside and the University of Texas Arlington in the US, for every 20 to 50 questions ChatGPT is asked, it diligently "drinks" a bottle of water. This intriguing discovery shines a light on an aspect of AI's environmental impact. Safe to say it has been pretty much unexplored thus far.

As we look forward to the forthcoming publication of this intriguing research, it's essential to recognize the significance of understanding AI's environmental impact. Such insights will pave the way for more sustainable and eco-friendly developments in the world of artificial intelligence.
