KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 1): AITV Technologies, Inc. is making waves in the media industry with a groundbreaking approach to television by transforming passive viewership into a fully interactive experience driven by artificial intelligence (AI).
Founded by tech veterans from Oracle, Citrix, and AI Streaming, the Silicon Valley-based company is pioneering what it calls 'two-way, personalised TV'.
This new model fuses ultra-low-latency streaming, Web3 infrastructure, and AI to reshape how content is consumed and created.
At the core of AITV's innovation is its patented Interactive Content Delivery Network (iCDN) originally developed by NETSTAIRS, which enables intelligent avatars, real-time watch parties, and modular digital media rooms.
Designed to accommodate up to one million simultaneous viewers, the platform supports live, personalised interactions without the need for specialised infrastructure or downloads.
One of the standout features is AITV's AI-Human avatars—virtual hosts capable of adapting in real time to user input—delivering guided, immersive experiences that feel both personal and dynamic.
The platform also integrates blockchain technology, allowing viewers to tokenise their participation.
This opens up novel avenues for users to co-create content, prompt AI hosts, and earn rewards, effectively democratising the content creation process.
Far from replacing traditional broadcasting systems, AITV functions as a middleware layer that integrates seamlessly with existing platforms.
This allows broadcasters, creators, and media companies to retain control of their audiences while unlocking new monetisation opportunities through AI-enhanced programming.
Beyond entertainment, AITV's technology is being positioned for education, esports, ESG communications, news, and public outreach, making it a versatile tool for governments, non-governmental organisations, and institutions seeking to boost engagement and transparency.
AITV refers to this new model as the beginning of the 'adaptive media era'—a future in which content evolves in real time with its audience—ensuring data sovereignty and equitable revenue distribution.
The company's disruptive potential was spotlighted during a new episode of Tek Talk by KROOM which aired recently.
The episode delved into how AITV is redefining the television experience, with a focus on its fusion of AI, blockchain, and live streaming technology.

Actress Bella Astillah had to present award to ex-husband's rumoured fling

Photo: TV3/YouTube There was an awkward moment at Malaysia's Melodi Hottest Awards 2025 on Aug 3. Malaysian singer-actress Bella Astillah was one of the presenters at the event broadcast live on TV3 from Putrajaya International Convention Centre. The 31-year-old was presenting the award for the winner of the Hottest Female Celebrity category with Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman. Bella was visibly uncomfortable after she opened the envelope and saw the name of the winner. 'I know this one... I know her very well. Sophia,' she said, referring to Malaysian actress Sophia Albarakbah. Sophia, 32, went on stage after her name was announced. Bella swiftly passed her the trophy and a bouquet of flowers without making eye contact or acknowledging her. In early 2023, Bella accused Sophia of trying to wreck her marriage with her then husband, Malaysia-based Singaporean actor Aliff Aziz. Aliff and Sophia had both starred in the drama series Ku Akad Kau Dengan Bismillah (2023). Bella and Aliff, 34, first divorced in 2019, but reconciled in 2020. They divorced for the second time in June 2024 after Aliff was caught in khalwat (close proximity) with Malaysian actress Ruhainies, 33. Sophia was asked about the incident with Bella after the ceremony. "I'm OK because we're in the same industry. I never felt as if I was being mocked. Maybe that's just her way of presenting the award," she told entertainment portal Gempak. For the record, Bella and Syed Saddiq won in the Hottest Celebrity Couple Goals category, but she did not speak to the media. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network

India accuses EU, US of double standard over Russian trade

Alexander Zemlianichenko/Pool via REUTERS/File Photo NEW DELHI (Reuters) -India has sharply criticised the United States and the European Union, saying it is being unfairly singled out by them over its Russian oil purchases when they both trade extensively with Moscow despite the war in Ukraine. India's criticism followed a renewed threat by U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday to raise tariffs on goods from India over its Russian oil purchases, deepening the trade rift between the two countries. In a rare show of unity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the main opposition Congress on Tuesday condemned Trump's repeated criticism of New Delhi. India's Foreign Ministry said in a statement issued late on Monday that "it is revealing that the very nations criticising India are themselves indulging in trade with Russia". "It is unjustified to single out India," the ministry said. It said the EU conducted 67.5 billion euros ($78.02 billion) in trade with Russia in 2024, including record imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) reaching 16.5 million metric tons. The United States, the statement said, continues to import Russian uranium hexafluoride for use in its nuclear power industry, palladium, fertilisers and chemicals. It did not give a source for the export information. The U.S. embassy and the EU's delegation in New Delhi did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Both the United States and EU have sharply scaled back their trade ties with Russia since it launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. In 2021, Russia was the EU's fifth-largest trading partner, with goods exchange worth 258 billion euros, according to the EU executive European Commission. SUDDEN RIFT The sudden rift between India and the U.S. has been deepening since July 31, when Trump announced a 25% tariff on Indian goods being shipped to the U.S. and for the first time threatened unspecified penalties for buying Russian oil. India is one of the biggest buyers of crude from Russia, importing about 1.75 million barrels per day from January to June this year, up 1% from a year ago. Indian refiner Nayara Energy, a major buyer of Russian oil which is majority owned by Russian entities including oil major Rosneft, was subjected to European Union sanctions targeting Russia's oil and energy industry in July. India has said it does not support "unilateral sanctions" by the EU. Trade experts say Trump's tariff could badly hurt India's economy. Ajay Srivastava of the New Delhi-based Global Trade Research Initiative said he expected Indian goods exports to the U.S. to fall 30% in the current fiscal year ending March 31, to $60.6 billion from $86.5 billion in the 2025 fiscal year. India's equity benchmarks fell after Trump's renewed threat of harsh tariffs on goods from India. Manish Tewari, a member of parliament and Congress leader, said Trump's "disparaging remarks hurt the dignity and self-respect of Indians". "The time has come to call out this constant bullying and hectoring," he added. BJP Vice President Baijayant Jay Panda quoted Henry Kissinger - the most powerful U.S. diplomat of the Cold War era - in a post on X: "To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal."

Abu Dhabi's MGX could raise up to $25 billion for AI fund, Bloomberg News says

(Reuters) -Abu Dhabi-based MGX is considering plans to raise as much as $25 billion in third-party capital as the investment group looks to ramp up its artificial intelligence holdings, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter. MGX declined to comment on the report and Reuters could not immediately verify it. Company executives are weighing raising money from financial and strategic investors in Abu Dhabi and beyond, but Mubadala Investment Co and AI firm G42 will remain MGX's main backers, the report said. No final decisions have been made, according to the report. MGX, which has invested in OpenAI and Elon Musk's xAI, is chaired by Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the UAE's national security adviser and a brother of UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed. The Financial Times reported last week that French AI startup Mistral is in talks with MGX and other investors to raise $1 billion at a valuation of $10 billion.
