The rapid advancement of technology has set higher standards for the next generation of wireless communication networks, known as 6G. These networks go beyond the simple task of connecting devices and aim to establish a self-sustaining system within society. One of the key factors in achieving this goal is the integration of AI services and apps through the Internet of Things (IoT), which will be made possible with the support of 6G technology. The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) will play a crucial role in enhancing the protocols, architectures, and operations of 6G networks. To achieve collaborative AI in IoT applications, Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a popular method. FL enables AI training without the need for data sharing, ensuring privacy and security. However, FL also faces challenges, such as the presence of malicious data and the risk of single-point failure. To address these concerns, blockchain technology (BCT) offers a secure and efficient solution. By leveraging blockchain, these issues can be effectively tackled, providing a reliable framework for implementing FL-IoT applications.

Global warming and climate change are responsible for many disasters. Floods pose a serious risk and require immediate management and strategies for optimal response times. Technology can respond in place of humans in emergencies by providing information. As one of these emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, drones are controlled in their amended systems by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In this study, we propose a secure method of flood detection in Saudi Arabia using a Flood Detection Secure System (FDSS) based on deep active learning (DeepAL) based classification model in federated learning to minimize communication costs and maximize global learning accuracy. We use blockchain-based federated learning and partially homomorphic encryption (PHE) for privacy protection and stochastic gradient descent (SGD) to share optimal solutions. InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) addresses issues with limited block storage and issues posed by high gradients of information transmitted in blockchains. In addition to enhancing security, FDSS can prevent malicious users from compromising or altering data. Utilizing images and IoT data, FDSS can train local models that detect and monitor floods. A homomorphic encryption technique is used to encrypt each locally trained model and gradient to achieve ciphertext-level model aggregation and model filtering, which ensures that the local models can be verified while maintaining privacy. The proposed FDSS enabled us to estimate the flooded areas and track the rapid changes in dam water levels to gauge the flood threat. The proposed methodology is straightforward, easily adaptable, and offers recommendations for Saudi Arabian decision-makers and local administrators to address the growing danger of flooding. This study concludes with a discussion of the proposed method and its challenges in managing floods in remote regions using artificial intelligence and blockchain technology.

In decades, technology and artificial intelligence have significantly impacted aspects of life. One noteworthy development is ChatGPT, an AI-based model that has created a revolution and attracted attention from researchers, academia, and organizations in a short period of time. Experts predict that ChatGPT will continue advancing, bringing about a leap in artificial intelligence. It is believed that this technology holds the potential to address cybersecurity concerns, protect against threats and attacks, and overcome challenges associated with our increasing reliance on technology and the internet. This technology may change our lives in productive and helpful ways, from the interaction with other AI technologies to the potential for enhanced personalization and customization to the continuing improvement of language model performance. While these new developments have the potential to enhance our lives, it is our responsibility as a society to thoroughly examine and confront the ethical and societal impacts. This research delves into the state of ChatGPT and its developments in the fields of artificial intelligence and security. It also explores the challenges faced by ChatGPT regarding privacy, data security, and potential misuse. Furthermore, it highlights emerging trends that could influence the direction of ChatGPT's progress. This paper also offers insights into the implications of using ChatGPT in security contexts. Provides recommendations for addressing these issues. The goal is to leverage the capabilities of AI-powered conversational systems while mitigating any risks.

The various routing protocols in Mobile Ad hoc Networks follow different strategies to send the information from one node to another. The nodes in the network are non static and they move randomly and are prone to link failure which makes always to find new routes to the destination. This research mainly focused on the study of the characteristics of multipath routing protocols in MANETS. Two of the multipath routing protocols were investigated and a comparative study along with simulation using NS2 was done between DSR and AODV to propose an enhanced approach to reach the destination maintaining the QoS. A possible optimization to the DSR and AODV routing protocols was proposed to make no node to be overburdened by distributing the load after finding the alternate multipath routes which were discovered in the Route discovery process. The simulation shows that the differences in the protocol highlighted major differences with the protocol performance. These differences have been analyzed with various network size, mobility, and network load. A new search table named Search of Next Node Enquiry Table (SONNET) was proposed to find the best neighbor node. Using SONNET the node selects the neighbor which can be reached in less number of hops and with less time delay and maintaining the QoS.
