Taiwan′s next AI battle is all about data and partners, says former tech minister (Digitimes)
|
|
|
Taiwan's tech industry has grown rapidly in recent years on the back of strengths in semiconductors, servers and the data center supply chain, lifting overall GDP. But companies that keep chasing hardware specs or wait for technology to become perfect before deploying AI will face an endless cycle of catch-up pressure, according to former minister of science and technology Liang-Gee Chen....

The Few Dominating AI Could Wield Insane Concentration Of Power, Researcher Warns
Authored by Jacob Burg and Jan Jekielek via The Epoch Times,
Imagine a world where intelligent machines easily outmatch humans across a broad spectrum of tasks, deconstructing complex concepts and mathematical equations in seconds, and bringing to life creative products and ideas that once seemed inseparable from the human mind.
In this world, your artificial intelligence (AI) model is not merely a chatbot editing your emails and completing tasks like a digital assistant; it's mapping out problems and making decisions, probing deep intellectual paradoxes, and doing all of this autonomously, without requiring human input.
This is one way "superintelligence," or artificial general intelligence, could manifest if researchers succeed in scaling large language models to this threshold.
Researchers continue to debate whether large language models can reach superintelligence, but others have even bigger concerns.
"I th...

Huawei′s NPO bet challenges CPO′s path to AI scale (Digitimes)
|
|
|
Huawei is backing near-packaged optics (NPO) rather than co-packaged optics (CPO) for its next-generation AI infrastructure, arguing that NPO offers a better balance of cost, manufacturability, reliability and serviceability as optical interconnects move deeper into large-scale AI clusters....

Analysis: Kioxia′s NAND pedigree meets an AI-era SSD gap (Digitimes)
|
|
|
Kioxia helped create the NAND flash industry, but AI is changing what leadership in memory looks like. The Japanese supplier is benefiting from record NAND demand and higher prices, yet rivals are capturing more value from enterprise solid-state drives (SSDs) for AI servers. Kioxia's challenge is therefore less about making advanced NAND than turning it into qualified products, hyperscaler relationships, and committed volumes before today's AI infrastructure boom hardens the supplier hierarchy....
