Description:
Sam Altman admitted OpenAI might have been wrong about keeping its AI models private and acknowledged DeepSeek’s open-source approach is making waves in the industry. Meanwhile, DeepSeek claims to have built an AI model as powerful as OpenAI’s GPT-o1 for a fraction of the cost, raising concerns about potential data theft and U.S. chip restrictions. At the same time, Altman is pushing a $500 billion AI data center project called “Stargate” while facing a personal lawsuit, as Google quietly adjusts its AI strategy and Microsoft investigates DeepSeek’s rapid rise.

Although Chinese AI, such as DeepSeek, might torpedo American megatech, the advent of vanishingly tiny costs might lead us further up that exponential curve to Superabundance.

S V3 model, DeepSeek-V2, triggered an AI model price war in China after it was released last May. ‘ + The fact that DeepSeek-V2 was open-source and unprecedentedly cheap, only 1 yuan.

BEIJING (Reuters)-Chinese tech company Alibaba on Wednesday released a new version of its Qwen 2.5 artificial intelligence model that it claimed surpassed the highly-acclaimed DeepSeek-V3. The unusual timing of the Qwen 2.5-Max’s release, on the first day of the Lunar New Year when most Chinese people are off work and with their families, points to the pressure Chinese AI startup DeepSeek’s meteoric rise in the past three weeks has placed on not just overseas rivals, but also its domestic competition. “Qwen 2.5-Max outperforms… almost across the board GPT-4o, DeepSeek-V3 and Llama-3.1-405B,” Alibaba’s cloud unit said in an announcement posted on its official WeChat account, referring to OpenAI and Meta’s most advanced open-source AI models.

Capcom is experimenting with generative AI to create the “hundreds of thousands” of ideas needed for in-game environments.

As video game development costs rise, publishers are increasingly looking to controversial AI tools to speed up work and cut costs. Call of Duty reportedly sold an “AI-generated cosmetic” for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in late 2023, and fans accused Activision of using generative AI again for a loading screen last year. EA said in September that AI was “the very core” of its business.

In a new interview with Google Cloud Japan, Kazuki Abe, a technical director at Capcom who has worked on huge titles like Monster Hunter: World and Exoprimal, explained how the company is experimenting with implementing AI in its game development processes.

New research from the Academy of Military Medical Sciences in Beijing has uncovered a rather intriguing finding: natural melanin nanozymes (NMNs) derived from octopus ink may potentially slow ageing, protect against neurodegenerative diseases, and extend lifespan. Published in ACS Omega, the study reveals how these nanozymes work at the cellular level to mitigate oxidative stress, improve gut health, and enhance brain function, offering a new frontier in anti-ageing and neurological research.

What are Melanin Nanozymes?

Melanin, best known as the pigment responsible for skin and hair colour, has also been recognized for its potent antioxidant properties. Nanozymes created from natural melanin, like those extracted from octopus ink, mimic the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD). These nanozymes neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and improve cellular health—processes that are critical in mitigating ageing and the onset of neurodegenerative diseases.

Before we landed on the Moon, in the early days of the Cold War, Project Orion contemplated using Nuclear Bombs to power spaceships to new worlds and stars. More than half a century later, new technologies may see this concept reintroduced bigger, better, and safer. Could the most terrifying weapon of the 20th Century become the Great Hope of the 21st?

El Capitan can reach a peak performance of 2.746 exaFLOPS, making it the National Nuclear Security Administration’s first exascale supercomputer. It’s the world’s third exascale machine after the Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee and the Aurora supercomputer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility, also in Illinois.

The world’s fastest supercomputer is powered by more than 11 million CPU and GPU cores integrated into 43,000+ AMD Instinct MI300A accelerators. Each MI300A APU comprises an EPYC Genoa 24-core CPU clocked at 1.8GHz and a CDNA3 GPU integrated onto a single organic package, along with 128GB of HBM3 memory.

This groundbreaking 2D material boasts 100 trillion mechanical bonds per square centimeter, offering unmatched strength without the weight. Discover how this innovation could redefine military armor and keep our heroes safer than ever.

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) is developing a tokamak device called SPARC. The company aims to demonstrate the critical fusion energy milestone of producing more output power than input power for the first time in a device that can scale up to commercial power plant size. However, this achievement is only possible if the plasma doesn’t melt the device.

Researchers from CFS and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have collaborated on fusion boundary research through a series of projects, including ORNL Strategic Partnership Projects and Laboratory Directed Research and Development projects, work under the Innovation Network for Fusion Energy (INFUSE), and other work in partnership with General Atomics.

Throughout this collaboration, ORNL has developed simulation capabilities required to address critical and time-sensitive design issues for the SPARC .
