China’s leading tech firms, including ByteDance, Alibaba (HK:9988), and Tencent (HK:0700), have reportedly stockpiled close to one million units of Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) H20 AI chips in anticipation of tightened U.S. export restrictions, according to Nikkei Asia. The bulk purchases—valued at over $12 billion—aimed to secure nearly a year’s supply before the April export ban took effect. The H20 chip, a scaled-down version of Nvidia’s high-performance H100, is tailored to meet U.S. export controls and is widely used for AI inference tasks. Demand for AI computing in China is soaring, driven by the rapid growth of AI-powered applications like DeepSeek, now…

Emerging technology, when first being presented to the public-at-large, is bound to get people fearful and protective of the status quo. Such is the current case with AI and its practical application in multiple industries, particularly in the space of visual media arts, but rather than turn away, renowned filmmaker and technological innovator James Cameron is choosing to lean in. Last year, he joined the board of the generative AI company Stability AI and during a recent interview on the “Boz to the Future” podcast, he explained how the tech’s ability to shorten VFX workflow could truly be a game-changer…

One pressing question at the artificial-intelligence (AI) summit in Paris this week was this: is Mistral AI’s assistant a cat, or a chat? Called Le Chat and developed by a French startup as a competitor to ChatGPT, it launched as a smartphone app on February 6th. To the English speaker, Le Chat looks like a French twist on AI chat, which it conducts in English (and other languages). Yet at the jamboree President Emmanuel Macron plugged it using a soft “sh”, rendering Le Chat distinctly feline. Arthur Mensch, Mistral’s 32-year-old boss, says his baby is indeed four-legged. Look carefully at…

Baidu, the Chinese tech giant, on Friday unveiled its latest AI models, ERNIE X1 Turbo and ERNIE 4.5 Turbo. These AI models are faster, more innovative, and more cost-effective, building on the successes of their predecessors. These improved versions are intended to provide improved performance across multimodal understanding, logical reasoning, and tool usage, catering to developers, researchers, and companies alike. The launch occurred in China, with global availability expected soon through Baidu’s Qianfan platform and other cloud-based services. These Turbo models, which aim to make high-level AI more accessible, are also incredibly cost-efficient—ERNIE X1 Turbo costs only $0.14 per 1…

ChatGPT went viral in late 2022, changing the tech world. Generative AI became the top priority for every tech company, and that’s how we ended up with “smart” fridges with built-in AI. Artificial intelligence is being built into everything, sometimes for the hype alone, with products like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini having come a long way since late 2022.As soon as it became clear that genAI would reshape technology, likely leading to advanced AI systems that can do everything humans can do but better and faster, we started seeing worries that AI would negatively impact society and doom scenarios where…

Google DeepMind researchers are proposing a different way to secure Large Language Model (LLM) agents against manipulation, moving beyond model training or simple filters to an architectural defense called CaMeL (Capabilities for Machine Learning). Detailed in a paper published on arXiv, CaMeL applies established software security ideas like capability tracking and control flow integrity to shield LLM agents interacting with potentially malicious external data, aiming to prevent data theft or unintended actions orchestrated through prompt injection attacks. The Persistent Problem of Prompt Injection Despite ongoing efforts across the industry, LLMs remain susceptible to various forms of prompt injection. Security researchers…
