|
|
|
China's pig prices have plunged to their lowest level in nearly eight years, as the country struggles to deal with a persistent supply glut triggered by the spread of huge industrial farms and a post-holiday drop in meat consumption.

China Flexes Robot Wolves With Machine Guns And A "Collective Brain"
Four years of hyperdevelopment, battlefield testing, and deployment of FPVs, ground robots, AI-enabled kill chains, and soon humanoid robots have permanently altered the course of the modern battlefield, as war technologies once viewed as 2030s-era weapons are being pulled forward into the present day and are now proliferating across battlefields stretching from the Eastern European theater to the Gulf theater, as Eurasia appears to be at war.
The latest reminder is that, regardless of the battlefield across Eurasia, there will increasingly be large swaths of land, miles deep, effectively forming a new kind of no-man's-land controlled by FPVs and ground robots operating with AI kill chains.

A new form of attritional warfare is emerging in which FPVs and robots...

|
|
|
Bank of China (Hong Kong), one of three note-issuing banks in the city, reported a modest 5 per cent growth in net profit last year, as exposure to the troubled mainland property sector offset its strong performance in the wealth business.
The lender reported a net profit of HK$40.12 billion (US$5.14 billion), or HK$3.7947 per share, compared with HK$38.23 billion a year earlier, according to a stock exchange filing on Monday. The results beat analysts' estimates of HK$39.3 billion.
