  1. China's AI industry closes ranks as Deepseek ships open-source software for Huawei's Ascend chips

    DeepSeek and Huawei have collaborated on programming tools for Ascend chips and released them all as open source. At their core is TileLang, a language that is easier to learn than CUDA. It was originally developed by researchers at Peking University, and DeepSeek has used it for about a year. The companies have also optimised a supernode comprising 128 Ascend 950 chips, with Huawei saying it provided full support. DeepSeek argues that an independent AI chip software ecosystem first needs a general-purpose language that is easy to program and can fully exploit the hardware's performance.

  1. Will Chinese AI companies slow down? A top House Democrat wants answers

    Ro Khanna, the ranking Democrat on the US House select committee on China, wrote to DeepSeek, Alibaba and Moonshot AI seeking documents on their pursuit of 'superintelligence' and recursive self-improvement (RSI), and asking whether they had safeguards and 'kill switches'. He also asked the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to assess US capacity to handle AI labs losing control and China's methods for evaluating catastrophic AI risks, aiming to promote a US–China treaty banning RSI.
