Davos 2026 just wrapped, and the AI conversation shifted from “how powerful can we make this?” to “how do we deal with what’s already here?” For the first time, frontier lab CEOs delivered blunt workforce displacement timelines at a major…

DeepSeek just solved a mathematical problem that’s been quietly killing AI scaling research. While everyone obsessed over parameter counts and training budgets, Hyper-Connections—a promising alternative to residual connections—collapsed spectacularly at 27 billion parameters. The culprit? Signal amplification that exploded 3000x,…

Counterpoint Research analyst Wei Sun called it a “striking breakthrough,” and she’s not prone to hyperbole. DeepSeek, the Chinese AI lab that sent shockwaves through Silicon Valley with its $5.6 million R1 model in January 2025, just dropped another paper…

The Trump administration just cleared something remarkable on December 8, 2025: Nvidia will ship 40,000 to 80,000 H200 AI chips to China. That’s roughly $6 billion in semiconductor exports. The catch? The U.S. government gets 25% of the revenue. This…
