The next great wave of demand for artificial intelligence chips could come not from chatbots, but from humanoid robots caring for ageing populations. That is the prediction of Wendell Huang, chief financial officer of TSMC, the Taiwanese company that manufactures the world's most advanced semiconductors. As countries grapple with rapidly ageing societies, Huang sees robot carers and autonomous vehicles as major commercial frontiers beyond the current boom in AI data centres.TSMC is already struggling to keep pace with demand. Huang says the company is expanding as fast as it can across Taiwan, the United States, Japan and Germany, but new fabrication plants take two to three years to build and a further year or two to reach full production. Despite concerns about overinvestment, he rejects the idea that AI is a bubble, describing it as a “multi-year structural megatrend” backed by the financial strength of the world's biggest cloud and technology companies.The most advanced chips will continue to be ramped up in Taiwan, Huang says, because research and manufacturing teams need to work in close proximity. Recreating Taiwan's semiconductor ecosystem in the US will take at least five to ten years, even though TSMC's Arizona lab has now matched the yield of its mother lab in Taiwan.Huang is also pointed about Elon Musk's stated ambition to manufacture chips. “There's no shortcut in semiconductor manufacturing,” he says, arguing that government subsidies alone cannot guarantee success in the foundry business. TSMC's advantage, he suggests, rests on technology, execution and nearly four decades of customer trust.Geopolitics remain unavoidable. TSMC sits at the centre of US-China tensions over technology and Taiwan, but Huang declines to be drawn on the politics, insisting the company builds capacity according to customer demand rather than government instruction. On export controls and reports of chips reaching China through third parties, he says TSMC has robust compliance systems, while acknowledging the limits of tracing products once they leave its facilities.Presenter: Suranjana Tewari Producer: Jaltson Akkanath Chummar& Olie D'AlbertansonPicture Courtesy of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, LTD3:10 The AI chip landscape 5:21 Is the AI boom a bubble? 7:28 Humanoid robots and the future of AI demand 8:14 Will AI replace jobs? 10:25 Will cutting-edge chips stay in Taiwan? 13:27 Huawei and Chinese chip ambitions 19:08 TSMC on receiving US government subsidies 19:27 Elon Musk's chip-making ambitions 20:45 Middle East, supply chains and stockpiling 21:35 Talent challenges and cultural adjustment in Arizona

Comments/ideas: ACFpod@outlook.comChina's carbon market is already the world's largest, and it's about to get far more complex. Leading market expert Jeff Huang has a front-row seat to what's coming: absolute emissions caps replacing the old intensity targets, carbon auctioning arriving in steel, cement and aluminium, and Hong Kong quietly positioning itself as the trading hub that connects all of it to global markets. If you're watching how carbon pricing shapes capital flows and CBAM compliance, this episode is worth your time.Reference: AEX Holdings. Op-ed sample - Beyond critical mass (China Daily, 16 January 2026)ABOUT JEFF: Jeff Huang is founder & CEO of AEX Markets based in Hong Kong. He is former Managing Director Greater China of the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), VP Asia for Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX), and was appointed Chief Advisor for Chongqing Gas Exchange. He's also founder of AsiaREC Limited, a non-profit carbon standard in Hong Kong. Jeff has more than 10 years of experience in cross-border M&A, Joint Ventures and futures markets in the United States, covering spaces including exchanges, futures companies, financial software infrastructure, etc. Prominent deals he has led include the creation of the Tianjin Climate Exchange (a joint venture between CCX and CNPC/PetroChina), forming a JV for futures brokerage between Citic and Calyon (SocGen) and a fintech acquisition for SunGard.Recommendation: The Great Game by Peter Hopkirk: A gripping historical account of the 19th-century imperial rivalry between the British and Russian empires as they vied for supremacy in Central Asia.HOST, PRODUCTION, ARTWORK: Joseph Jacobelli | MUSIC: Ep76 onward excerpts from Vivaldi's La Follia, played by Luca Jacobelli.
In Episode 142, Yuping Huang, CEO and Chairman of Quantum Computing Inc and Physics Professor at Stevens Institute of Technology, joins Patrick and Ciprian to make the case for photonics, not just as a modality, but as a philosophy. QCI's approach starts with the physics rather than mapping quantum onto classical architecture, leading to machines that look nothing like what most people expect a quantum computer to look like. Yuping walks through the deceptively hard problem of deterministically generating entangled photon pairs, why you don't need a million entangled photons to build something useful, and why QCI operates entirely at room temperature, if it can't fit in a backpack, it won't end up in users' hands. The conversation closes on Neural Wave, a hybrid photonic-digital system that offloads computation into the optical domain and cuts AI energy consumption by orders of magnitude.

Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang pointed to Marvell (MRVL) as the next $1 trillion company. George Tsilis tests Huang's comments by highlighting the company's balance sheet and partnerships as key tests for forward momentum. George says Marvell is in great positioning as its business sits in many parts of the evolving AI trade. One issue he takes with forward momentum: valuation, which he sees leading to more volatility down the road. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/ About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
In Acts 2, ordinary people encountered the power and presence of God in a life-changing way. The story of Pentecost is a reminder that God keeps His promises. From the rushing wind to the tongues of fire, every moment pointed to His desire to dwell with and empower His people. That same Holy Spirit is still moving, still filling hearts, and still drawing people closer to Him today.

On Call with Insignia Ventures with Yinglan Tan and Paulo Joquino
In this episode of On Call with Insignia Ventures, join us on this call with QingGui Huang (Gui), CEO and co-founder of Konvy, for a wide-ranging conversation on what it means to build a health and beauty e-commerce platform for Southeast Asia in 2026. Now in its 13th year of operations and fresh off a Series B round backed by Cool Japan Fund, Konvy has grown from Thailand's leading beauty e-retailer into a regional multi-channel platform with stores and operations across Thailand, the Philippines, and Malaysia. The discussion explores how shifting consumer behavior, the rise of TikTok Shop, and the growing complexity of omni-channel commerce are reshaping the competitive landscape. Konvy's “matchmaking” thesis, connecting quality global brands with underserved regional consumers, is also finding new relevance as both inbound and outbound brand flows mature across the region. Gui also shares his perspective on AI's complementary role in e-commerce operations, the challenges of cross-border localization, and what a potential public market listing could mean for Konvy's next chapter.Timestamps(0:00): Introduction(2:00): Konvy's Background and the Evolving E-Commerce Landscape(5:00): Konvy as Southeast Asia's Beauty and Health Gateway(7:00): Pain Points for D2C and E-Commerce Brands(9:00): AI as a Complementary Force in E-Commerce(13:00): The Cool Japan Fund Partnership and Inbound Brand Strategy(16:00): Outbound Strategy: Taking Southeast Asian Brands Global(18:00): Omni-Channel Strategy: Balancing Online and Offline(21:00): Localizing for New Markets: Philippines and Malaysia(23:00): Building Global Infrastructure and the Path to Public Markets(26:00): Advice for Entrepreneurs and FoundersAbout Our GuestQingGui Huang, known as Gui, is the CEO and co-founder of Konvy, Thailand's leading health and beauty e-commerce platform. A US-educated Chinese entrepreneur who received his Bachelor's in Management and International Business from Purdue University, Gui built online fashion businesses in Beijing before returning to Southeast Asia in 2011, spotting the opportunity to create a dedicated beauty e-commerce platform in Thailand, where he had spent some of his childhood. He founded Konvy in 2012 with his co-founders, growing it from a 100,000 baht startup in a single rented room into the country's number one beauty retailer, carrying over 1,000 brands and 20,000 products across its own app, major marketplaces, TikTok Shop, and physical retail stores. Konvy has expanded into the Philippines and Malaysia and raised multiple funding rounds, most recently a Series B led by Cool Japan Fund, reflecting the platform's growing role as Southeast Asia's gateway for global beauty brands, both inbound and outbound.Directed by Paulo JoquiñoProduced by Paulo JoquiñoFollow us on LinkedIn for more updates: https://www.linkedin.com/company/insignia-ventures/?viewAsMember=trueThe content of this podcast is for informational purposes only, should not be taken as legal, tax, or business advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security, and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any Insignia Ventures fund.

È ancora aperta la partita sul futuro degli sconti sulle accise. A pochi giorni dalla scadenza del 6 giugno, nel governo si moltiplicano le valutazioni su costi e benefici di un nuovo eventuale intervento sui carburanti, senza che sia ancora maturata una decisione definitiva. Dalla primavera a oggi il taglio delle accise ha cambiato più volte intensità: si è partiti da uno sconto consistente, attorno ai 24 centesimi al litro, per arrivare a una progressiva riduzione. Nell'ultimo decreto il governo ha dimezzato lo sconto sul gasolio, portandolo a circa 12 centesimi al litro, mentre per la benzina il taglio è rimasto più contenuto, attorno ai 6 centesimi. Una modulazione dettata dall'esigenza di contenere l'impatto sui conti pubblici: il conto complessivo dell'operazione sfiora i 2 miliardi di euro, una cifra che rende difficile immaginare ulteriori proroghe senza coperture solide.OSPITE: Davide Tabarelli, presidente Nomisma EnergiaSoftBank investe 75 miliardi in Francia per costruire il più grande hub IA d EuropaSoftBank scommette sulla Francia per accelerare la corsa europea all'intelligenza artificiale (IA). Il gruppo giapponese guidato da Masayoshi Son ha annunciato, secondo quanto rivelato dal Financial Times, un impegno fino a 75 miliardi di euro per sviluppare una vasta rete di infrastrutture dedicate al calcolo avanzato, un progetto che, se completato, diventerebbe il più grande complesso di data center per l IA del continente. L investimento rappresenta il più importante impegno nel settore dell'intelligenza artificiale assunto da SoftBank al di fuori degli Stati Uniti e offre un importante successo politico al presidente francese Emmanuel Macron alla vigilia dell'edizione 2026 di Choose France , l evento con cui Parigi cerca ogni anno di attirare capitali e investimenti internazionali.La decisione - secondo il quotidiano britannico - è maturata rapidamente dopo una cena tra Macron e Son svoltasi a Tokyo all inizio di aprile. In quell'occasione il presidente francese avrebbe illustrato i punti di forza del Paese per ospitare infrastrutture ad alta intensità energetica, puntando in particolare sulla disponibilità di energia nucleare e su procedure autorizzative accelerate per gli impianti legati all'intelligenza artificiale. «SoftBank è orgogliosa di assumere questo importante impegno nei confronti della Francia», ha dichiarato Son. Secondo il fondatore e amministratore delegato del gruppo, le capacità industriali francesi, la disponibilità di competenze specializzate e l ambizione nazionale nel settore tecnologico rendono il Paese uno dei candidati più credibili a diventare un polo europeo dell'intelligenza artificiale. Uno dei principali poli sorgerà a Dunkerque, dove SoftBank collaborerà con Schneider Electric per creare un hub dedicato sia alle infrastrutture per l'intelligenza artificiale sia alla produzione di tecnologie robotiche. La posizione geografica del sito, affacciato sul Mare del Nord e vicino a importanti mercati come Londra, Bruxelles e Amsterdam, è considerata uno degli elementi strategici dell'iniziativa.OSPITE: Danilo Ceccarelli, collaboratore del Sole 24 ore da Parigi Easyjet vola in Borsa sulla manifestazione di interesse di CastlelakeEasyjet bolla come "altamente opportunistica la tempistica" con cui la società di investimento Castlelake sta valutando un'offerta per il vettore britannico e afferma di "non aver avuto alcuna discussione, né di aver ricevuto alcun approccio o proposta" dal potenziale acquirente. Venerdì scorso, a Borsa chiusa, Castlelake aveva reso noto di disporre di una quota del 2,1% nel vettore britannico e di valutare un'offerta a non meno di 403,23 pence ad azione. Sul listino di Londra Easyjet balza stamattina dell'11,6% a 444,1 pence. Il board di Easyjet, si legge nella risposta del vettore britannico, pubblicata poco prima dell'apertura di Borsa, "ha chiaro il proprio dovere di massimizzare il valore per gli azionisti e prenderà in considerazione qualsiasi proposta" ponendo attenzione "in particolare alla valutazione e alla fattibilità" dell'operazione. Con riguardo al primo punto il board rileva "il timing altamente opportunistico" di un'offerta nel momento in cui "il prezzo delle azioni è temporaneamente depresso a causa dell'attuale situazione in Medio Oriente e del suo impatto sulla fiducia dei clienti e sui prezzi del carburante". In tema di fattibilità il cda "rileva le considerevoli sfide normative, finanziarie e operative associate a una potenziale acquisizione di easyJet".

La sua fabbricazione aumenta la competizione nel settore dei chip per pc e segnala come Nvidia, che occupa una posizione dominante nel settore dei semiconduttori per le infrastrutture di intelligenza artificiale, stia ampliando la sua offerta, sviluppando chip integrati che alimentano l'intero computer, con l'obiettivo di intercettare i flussi di spesa dei consumatori per sostituire pc datati, messi a dura prova dalle nuove applicazioni di intelligenza artificiale, con laptop più performanti.OSPITE: Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore editoriale Ucapital.com
Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast:1) The US and Iran traded messages over the weekend seeking changes to a draft agreement that would extend a ceasefire and open the Strait of Hormuz, but it was unclear whether the sides were making much progress. As the diplomatic exchanges continued, Israel expanded its ground assault in Lebanon, shattering a brittle truce with its northern neighbor. President Trump said his proposed deal states clearly “that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon,” according to a post on Truth Social. Trump hadn’t spoken on the subject of Iran since a White House Situation Room meeting Friday in which he said he expected to announce an agreement. In a social media post earlier that day, he reiterated his demands, including that Iran suspend its nuclear program and fully restore the strait to its earlier status as a free, international waterway. The semi-official Tasnim news agency, which has close ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said Sunday that both sides continued to propose amendments, but noted that the US and Iran could ultimately reject the changes, causing the deal to collapse.2) Oil rose from a six-week low amid uncertainty over the outlook for a peace deal to end the war in Iran. Brent advanced to around $93 a barrel after closing at its lowest since mid-April on Friday, while West Texas Intermediate rose to near $90. The US and Iran traded messages over the weekend seeking changes to a draft agreement that would extend a ceasefire and open the Strait of Hormuz, but it was unclear if the sides were making much progress. The standoff follows a bout of optimism that some form of peace agreement would be reached — and that energy flows would resume through the Strait of Hormuz — that had caused the first monthly drop in crude prices this year. Brent is still up more than a quarter since the war started at the end of February, as the near-total closure of the vital waterway causes unprecedented turmoil in oil markets.3) Nvidia is entering the personal computer market with a new chip aimed at loosening Intel’s long-standing stranglehold on the sector and modernizing machines for the artificial intelligence era. Starting this fall, the new RTX Spark Superchip will debut in premium laptop and desktop computers from leading brands, including Dell and Lenovo, Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang announced during a keynote speech at the Computex trade show in Taiwan. Huang also announced that next-generation Vera central processing units will enter full production in the third quarter of this year, marking the company's first standalone data center microprocessor.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Welcome to SIT Podcast. Just a few hours ago, the eyes of the global tech world turned to the Taipei Music Center, where NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang delivered a GTC Taipei keynote that sent a jolt through the industry. As we speak, the doors of Computex 2026 have yet to officially open — but NVIDIA has already seized the moment, declaring the arrival of a "new era of PC."In this episode, we take a close look at three defining trends:1. NVIDIA moves into laptop silicon. After more than a decade away, NVIDIA returns to the consumer CPU arena with the N1 and N1X chips. According to supply-chain reports, the high-performance N1X is said to feature a 20-core Arm CPU and Blackwell-architecture graphics, with performance reportedly compared to the desktop-class RTX 5070. More significantly, this could mean the CUDA ecosystem running natively on a Windows-on-Arm laptop for the first time.2. Taiwan — the center of global AI. In his keynote, Huang revealed that NVIDIA's annual spending in Taiwan has grown to roughly $100 billion. The company is also planning an overseas headquarters called "Constellation," reportedly slated to open around 2030 and house some 4,000 employees. From TSMC's manufacturing to Foxconn's assembly, Taiwan has become the heart of what Huang envisions as the AI factory producing computational tokens.3. The rivals respond, and an industry test. Faced with NVIDIA's momentum, Intel has rolled out its Arc G3 chips built for handheld gaming devices, while Qualcomm defends its ground with a $300 entry-level Windows laptop platform. With DRAM and SSD costs climbing, Gartner projects PC prices will rise a notable 17% in 2026 — a real test of what every maker can deliver.歡迎來到 SIT Podcast。就在幾個小時前,全球科技界的目光都聚焦在台北流行音樂中心,NVIDIA 執行長黃仁勳發表了震撼產業的 GTC Taipei 主題演講。此時此刻,Computex 2026 的展覽大門尚未正式開啟,但 NVIDIA 已經先聲奪人,宣告了「PC 新紀元」的到來。在本集節目中,我們將深入解析三大關鍵趨勢:NVIDIA 跨足筆電矽晶片: NVIDIA 睽違十年重回消費型 CPU 戰場,推出 N1 與 N1X 晶片。根據供應鏈報告,高性能的 N1X 據傳搭載 20 核 Arm CPU 與 Blackwell 架構繪圖核心,其性能甚至被拿來與桌機等級的 RTX 5070 相比。更重要的是,這可能代表 CUDA 生態系將首度原生運行於 Windows-on-Arm 筆電。台灣——全球 AI 的中心: 黃仁勳在演講中透露,NVIDIA 每年在台灣的支出已增長至約 1,000 億美元。此外,NVIDIA 正計畫興建名為「Constellation」(星座)的海外總部,預計 2030 年啟用,將容納約 4,000 名員工。從台積電的製造到 Foxconn 的組裝,台灣已成為黃仁勳眼中生產「計算代幣」的 AI 工廠核心。競爭對手的回擊與產業逆風: 面對 NVIDIA 的強勢,Intel 隨即推出專為掌上型遊戲機設計的 Arc G3 晶片,Qualcomm 則以 300 美元的低價 Windows 筆電平台防守市場。然而,在 DRAM 與 SSD 成本飆升的壓力下,Gartner 預測 2026 年 PC 價格將大幅上漲 17%,這對所有廠商來說都是嚴峻的考驗。
Nvidia se ha convertido en la gran protagonista del panorama empresarial tras su participación en la feria Computex celebrada en Taipéi, donde presentó una serie de innovaciones tecnológicas destinadas a marcar el futuro del sector. La elección de Taiwán como escenario principal no ha sido casual. Su director ejecutivo, Jensen Huang, ya adelantó días atrás un ambicioso plan de inversión que podría alcanzar los 150.000 millones de dólares anuales en la isla. Durante la presentación inaugural se proyectó un vídeo en el que se mostraban varias instalaciones de la compañía en territorio taiwanés, además de poner en valor las alianzas estratégicas que mantiene con empresas locales de referencia como Foxconn y TSMC. Entre los anuncios más destacados figura el nuevo chip RTX Spark, destinado al mercado de ordenadores personales y fabricado por TSMC. Con este lanzamiento, Nvidia aspira a reforzar su posición frente a competidores de primer nivel como Intel, AMD, Qualcomm y Apple. El procesador, conocido como N1X, incorporará una GPU basada en la arquitectura Blackwell. Uno de sus principales atractivos será la integración avanzada de inteligencia artificial, permitiendo ejecutar modelos lingüísticos de hasta 120.000 millones de parámetros y manejar contextos de hasta un millón de tokens. En este proyecto, la colaboración con Microsoft desempeñará un papel fundamental mediante la adaptación de Windows 11 para aprovechar plenamente las capacidades de estos nuevos chips. Huang también dedicó parte de su intervención a presentar Vera Rubin, la nueva plataforma de inteligencia artificial de Nvidia. El directivo la definió como una auténtica supercomputadora diseñada específicamente para agentes de IA y destacó que representa un importante avance en la evolución de la informática moderna. Según explicó, empresas como OpenAI, Anthropic y SpaceX ya figuran entre los primeros usuarios de esta tecnología. Además, defendió que la expansión de los agentes inteligentes incrementará significativamente la demanda de capacidad computacional y contribuirá al crecimiento económico sin provocar una destrucción masiva de empleo. Otro de los anuncios relevantes de Computex fue la colaboración entre Nvidia y la compañía china Unitree, especializada en robots humanoides. Gracias a este acuerdo, investigadores de la Universidad de Stanford y de la Universidad de California en San Diego podrán utilizar estas plataformas robóticas en distintos proyectos de investigación. Sin embargo, la relación de Unitree con las autoridades chinas genera ciertas dudas regulatorias, especialmente en Estados Unidos, donde dicha vinculación podría dificultar o ralentizar la adopción de esta tecnología en determinados ámbitos.

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was awarded the title of honorary professor by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences on Tuesday in Beijing, in recognition of his contributions to promoting agricultural science and technology cooperation between China and Pakistan.巴基斯坦总理夏巴兹·谢里夫周二在北京被中国农业科学院授予名誉教授称号,以表彰他为推动中巴农业科技合作所作出的贡献。Speaking at the ceremony, Sharif said that agriculture remained a key topic of discussion during his meetings with Chinese leaders.夏巴兹在仪式上表示,农业是他与中国领导人会晤期间讨论的关键议题。He said that Pakistan hopes to learn from China's development experience and expand cooperation in areas such as crop breeding, animal husbandry, climate-smart agriculture, agricultural machinery and agricultural product processing, in order to improve productivity and added value.他说,巴基斯坦希望学习中国的发展经验,扩大在作物育种、畜牧业、气候智慧型农业、农业机械以及农产品加工等领域的合作,以提高生产力和附加值。Sharif announced that Pakistan will launch the second phase of its "Thousand Talents Plan", which will see 1,000 more young people from Pakistan sent to Chinese agricultural institutions to study and undertake training.夏巴兹宣布,巴基斯坦将启动“千人计划”第二阶段,再派遣千余名巴基斯坦青年到中国农业院校学习和培训。"I propose sending 1,000 students and fresh agriculture graduates from all provinces of Pakistan to Chinese universities for formal courses and modern agricultural training," he said.他说:“我提议从巴基斯坦各省选派1000名学生和应届农业毕业生,到中国大学学习正规课程和现代农业培训。”Sharif's four-day official visit to China, which concluded on Tuesday, is an important high-level exchange between the two countries as this month marks the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations.夏巴兹对中国的四天正式访问于5月26日结束。此次访问是中巴两国间一次重要的高层交流,本月恰逢两国建交75周年。His announcement was warmly welcomed by Pakistani students at the academy, many of whom view China's agricultural modernization as a model for Pakistan's rural development.他的这一表态当即获得在该院学习的巴基斯坦学生热烈回应,他们中许多人把中国农业现代化看作巴基斯坦农村发展的样板。Nadeem Sarwar, a Pakistani scholar pursuing a PhD in agricultural water resources and environment at CAAS, said that the initiative would create valuable opportunities for more young people in Pakistan.在中国农科院攻读农业水资源与环境博士学位的巴基斯坦学者纳迪姆·萨瓦尔(音译)表示,这一举措将为更多巴基斯坦年轻人创造宝贵机会。"More Pakistani graduates will have the opportunity to gain knowledge, experience and exposure at Chinese institutions. When they return to Pakistan, they can contribute to developing the agricultural sector there," he said.他说:“更多巴基斯坦毕业生将有机会在中国院校获取知识、经验和视野。当他们回到巴基斯坦后,可以为那里的农业发展做出贡献。”Sarwar's research focuses on improving the efficiency of agricultural water use, an issue he said is particularly important for Pakistan.萨瓦尔的研究重点是提高农业用水效率。他表示,这一问题对巴基斯坦尤为重要。"China has made great progress (in agriculture), especially in improving water-use efficiency," he said, adding that he hopes to use China's technologies and experience to boost Pakistan's agricultural productivity and improve its management of resources.他说:“中国(在农业方面)取得了巨大进步,尤其是在提高用水效率方面。”他还表示,希望利用中国的技术和经验来提高巴基斯坦的农业生产力和资源管理水平。Muhammad Shahzad, also a PhD scholar at CAAS, who is studying animal genetics, breeding and reproduction, described the occasion as "a really big day" for Pakistani students. "It is a matter of great pride for all Pakistanis that China truly acknowledges Pakistan and values our friendship."同样在中国农科院攻读博士学位的穆罕默德·沙赫扎德(音译),研究方向为动物遗传育种与繁殖。他将这一时刻形容为巴基斯坦学生“真正的大日子”。“中国真正认可巴基斯坦并珍视我们的友谊,这是所有巴基斯坦人的骄傲。”Shahzad noted that Pakistan's livestock industry plays a major role in the country's agricultural economy, and that scientific breeding is essential for improving productivity. "Our animals are resilient to hot weather and diseases, but we need more scientific breeding," he said.沙赫扎德指出,巴基斯坦畜牧业在该国农业经济中占有重要地位,科学育种对提高生产力至关重要。“我们的牲畜耐热、抗病,但我们需要更科学的育种方法,”他说。Huang Sanwen, president of CAAS and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that CAAS has established multiple joint platforms with Pakistani partners, including laboratories for cotton biotechnology, sustainable crop pest control and molecular breeding of wheat.中国农科院院长、中国科学院院士黄三文表示,中国农科院已与巴方伙伴建立了多个联合平台,包括棉花生物技术、可持续作物病虫害防治以及小麦分子育种等实验室。Huang said that the academy has also promoted cooperation in crop breeding, prevention of animal and plant diseases, water and soil resource management, and agricultural product processing.黄三文说,农科院还推动了作物育种、动植物疫病防控、水土资源管理以及农产品加工等领域的合作。CAAS has trained more than 300 Pakistani students over the years and established a China-Pakistan Agricultural Technology Working Group with the Pakistan Agricultural Research Council, to institutionalize cooperation and strengthen capacity-building efforts, he added.他补充说,中国农科院多年来已培训了300多名巴基斯坦学生,并与巴基斯坦农业研究理事会共同成立了中巴农业技术工作组,以实现合作机制化,加强能力建设。He Zhonghu, a researcher at the academy's Institute of Crop Sciences, who has worked with Pakistani researchers for more than two decades, said that China and Pakistan have already achieved remarkable results through joint agricultural research.中国农科院作物科学研究所研究员何中虎与巴基斯坦研究人员合作已有二十余年。他表示,中巴两国通过联合农业研究已经取得了显著成果。A wheat variety developed by Chinese and Pakistani researchers has recently been approved in Pakistan following years of field testing.经过多年田间试验,中巴研究人员共同培育的一个小麦品种最近在巴基斯坦获得审定。The variety yields about 10 percent more than local varieties, matures earlier than them and has strong resistance to lodging (stem bending or breakage), said He, who is also an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.身兼中国工程院院士的何中虎介绍说,该品种比当地品种增产约10%,成熟期更早,抗倒伏能力强。"We are very happy to contribute what we can to Pakistan's agricultural development and food security," he added.“我们很高兴能为巴基斯坦的农业发展和粮食安全尽一份力,”他补充道。The researcher, who has trained 10 Pakistani PhD scholars and a number of agricultural technicians at the institute, said that future training methods should focus more on applying new technologies rather than on basic research.何中虎在该院已培养了10名巴基斯坦博士研究生和多名农业技术人员。他表示,未来的培训方法应更多地聚焦于新技术应用,而非基础研究。For example, students studying genetics or wheat breeding should also be taken to experimental fields, seed companies and flour mills for hands-on experience, he said.他例如,学习遗传学或小麦育种的学生也应被带到试验田、种子公司和面粉厂,以获得实践经验。in recognition of /ɪn ˌrekəɡˈnɪʃən əv/以表彰…crop breeding /krɒp ˈbriːdɪŋ/作物育种livestock industry /ˈlaɪvstɒk ˈɪndəstri/畜牧业sustainable crop pest control /səˈsteɪnəbəl krɒp pest kənˈtrəʊl/可持续作物病虫害防治molecular breeding /məˈlekjʊlə ˈbriːdɪŋ/分子育种lodging /ˈlɒdʒɪŋ/倒伏(农作物)
Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened marginally down this morning from yesterday's close, at 44,240 on turnover of 12.7-billion NT. The market closed above the 44,000-point mark for the first time on Wednesday after the bellwether electronics sector rebounded following a rally on Wall Street overnight led by US tech stocks. Nvidia's Jensen Huang touts Taiwan as being the 'epicenter of AI revolution' Visiting Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is describing Taiwan as being the "epicenter (中心) of the AI revolution" and at the center of nearly everything his company does. Huang made the statement at a company employee gathering celebrating Nvidia's planned Taiwan headquarters at the Beitou-Shilin Technology Park in Taipei. Taipei Mayor Chiang Wan-an also attended the event, at which he presented Huang with a Key to the City to welcome Nvidia to Taipei. Chiang told attendees that the world is watching how Nvidia shapes the future of A-I and Taipei was proud to be part of that future. Construction of the new Nvidia headquarters is scheduled to begin at the end of this year and be completed in 2030. Canada Day celebrations to mark 159th birthday set for late June And, The Canadian Trade Office in Taipei has announced that Canada Day celebrations will be taking place at the Hakka Cultural Park in Taipei once again this year on June 27. According to the office, the festival has become "a very important celebration not just for Canadians living in Taiwan, but also for people in Taipei and throughout Taiwan who travel to the capital to join the festivities (節慶活動)." Celebration Canada festival is free and will be taking place from 1 to 9PM on Saturday June 27. The annual Taipei event has long been touted as being the largest Canada Day celebration outside of Canada. White House dismisses Iranian reports of draft deal as Trump says he doesn't care about the midterms Iran's state TV says Tehran has obtained a draft of an unofficial framework for a memorandum of understanding with the U.S. to end the war. But the White House has dismissed the report as a complete fabrication (純屬虛構) and during a cabinet meeting President Trump expressed indifference (冷漠) to the political pressure caused by the unpopularity of the conflict. Kate Fisher reports from Washington Brazil Announces Highway Investment Brazil's government has announced a $75 million investment in the BR-319 highway, a move environmentalists fear could speed up Amazon deforestation (森林砍伐). President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva claims it will be the most environmentally advanced road in the world. The highway, linking Amazonas and Rondonia, remains mostly unpaved since its 1976 inauguration. The government also unveiled an environmental protection plan that includes monitoring and conservation units. Critics argue the project lacks necessary safeguards and could worsen deforestation. The Amazon, the world's largest rainforest, plays a critical role in regulating the global climate. The road cuts through one of the biome's (生態群系) most well-preserved regions, home to dozens of protected areas and Indigenous territories. That was the I.C.R.T.

Scared - China is restricting overseas travel for top AI professionals in private firms, requiring them to get approval from relevant authorities before embarking on overseas travel. - The government is targeting talent within the AI sphere, including startup founders, researchers, and executives, and adding individuals to the list based on assessments of their critical importance to the country. - The restrictions risk undermining the ability of AI firms in China to recruit and retain talent, and may force engineers with global ambitions to choose between staying home or going abroad earlier in their careers. CHIPS - Micron topped a $1 trillion market value for the first time on Tuesday as shares popped 18%, driven by insatiable artificial intelligence demand for its memory chips. - The stock surge came as UBS tripled its price target on the stock from $535 to $1,625 a share, citing long-term agreement opportunities with partially fixed pricing. - “We believe the market will start to put a more ‘normal' multiple on the stock and MU will continue to re-rate higher as more details emerge about the structural changes AI has driven to the entire memory complex,” the firm wrote. SpaceX - Lots of interest on this... - Lots of clients calling on this and we are working on this for them - Here is a bit of a reality check... --- First - company still losing billions of dollars - some may look past that - - Weird inclusion period for indices and that may take stock up due to required buying ahead of the inclusion (keeping a floor on prices in the beginning) ---- SpaceX plans to allow a large portion of its shares to become eligible for resale before the usual six-month restriction period post-IPO, under a staged system conditioned to the company's performance, a company filing shows. - The approach, designed to avoid a large wave of shares hitting the market at once, would depart from the standard 180-day lock-up that has prevailed in the U.S. Most companies going public restrict early investors from selling shares to help stabilize the stock. - Valuation somewhere between $1.5T and $2T (a year ago it was like $400 million) - Valuation in December was $750 M - Rationale for the big valuation: SpaceX is leveraging its satellite network to build massive, space-based AI data centers, which take advantage of limitless solar energy and off-planet cooling Retail - Ross Stores Inc. raised its sales and profit guidance after first-quarter results surpassed consensus estimates, aided by strong customer traffic among younger shoppers. - The company reported sales of $6.01 billion and earnings of $2.02 per share, with same-store sales growing 17% in the period, a record for Ross. - Ross now expects full-year same-store sales to grow 6% to 7%, and earnings of $7.50 to $7.74 per share, with executives citing increased customer traffic as a key driver of profit. Meanwhile - Walmart issued a worse-than-expected financial outlook amid soaring gas prices. - Finance chief John David Rainey said high tax returns may have muted some of the impact high gas prices had on shoppers in the first quarter, indicating consumer pressures could rise in the current quarter - The big-box retailer issued fiscal first-quarter results that beat Wall Street's expectations on the top line but were only in line on the bottom. - The retailer said it's expecting adjusted earnings per share to be between $2.75 and $2.85, lower than expectations of $2.91, according to LSEG. - Walmart said it anticipates net sales will rise between 3.5% and 4.5% for the year. Ferrari - Electric - Ferrari (RACE) is trading lower today after the company unveiled its first fully electric vehicle, the Ferrari Luce, marking a major strategic shift away from its traditional combustion-engine supercar identity. - The Luce is a four-door, five-seat ultra-luxury EV developed with former Apple (AAPL) design chief Jony Ive, featuring a quad-motor setup producing over 1,000 horsepower, a 0--60 mph time of roughly 2.5 seconds, and a price tag around $640,000. - Despite these headline-grabbing performance specs, investors reacted negatively because the design is seen as a sharp break from RACE's iconic styling, with many critics arguing it looks closer to a mass-market EV than a traditional Ferrari. Saying goodbye - One of America's once-dominant beer brands is being discontinued after more than 175 years. - Schlitz Premium, a beer brand that traces its roots to Milwaukee in the 1840s and was once among the largest breweries in the country, is being put "on hiatus," parent company Pabst Brewing Co. confirmed Friday after Wisconsin Brewing Company announced it would brew the brand's final batch later this month. - "Unfortunately, we have seen continued increases in our costs to store and ship certain products and have had to make the tough choice to place Schlitz Premium on hiatus," Zac Nadile, Pabst head of brand strategy, said in a statement to Milwaukee Magazine.

Podcast: Don't Panic! It's Just DataGuest: Michael Marolda, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Agentic RAG at Progress SoftwareHost: Shubhangi Dua, Podcast Producer and B2B Tech Journalist at EM360TechGenerative AI has been brewing in the enterprise tech industry for at least three years now. AI pilots are launching every other day, internal copilots are deployed across enterprise divisions, and now teams themselves are experimenting with large language models (LLMs) to automate business workflows. Such additions have sped up research and notably improved productivity.While the excitement is valid, the truth beneath is often disregarded. Many enterprise AI systems produce answers that sound convincing, even when they are completely wrong.In the recent episode of the Don't Panic! It's Just Data podcast, Michael Marolda, Senior Product Marketing Manager for Agentic RAG at Progress Software, sat down with host Shubhangi Dua, Podcast Producer and B2B Tech Journalist at EM360Tech.Marolda argued that the problem is not necessarily with the AI models themselves. The real issue is with the enterprise data foundations supporting them.“Your AI is only as good as the knowledge it has access to,” Marolda explained during the conversation. The question is what the gap is alluded to in the AI enterprise tech space.Also Read: Build vs. Buy: The Reality of Production-Grade RAGWhat's the Hidden Risk Costing Enterprises?According to Marolda, around 80 per cent of enterprise data remains unstructured. This includes PDFs, contracts, emails, audio files, presentations, scanned documents, videos, and handwritten notes. This is the kind of information that traditional AI systems struggle to process reliably.While enterprises are heavily investing in AI infrastructure and model testing, many still do not have systems capable of organising, retrieving, and validating this scattered knowledge. The outcome often turns into a situation where AI tools begin to generate responses without the necessary business context, despite excellent prompt engineering.“We've seen enterprises rush into AI implementations,” Marolda said. “But many pilots fail to scale because the information isn't grounded in real business data.” It ultimately poses major operational risks for companies, especially in highly regulated industries.During the podcast, Marolda mentioned a high-profile case involving an airline chatbot that provided customers with incorrect policy information, leading to legal consequences for the company. The issue was not due to malicious intent or a technical failure at the model level — it was due to unreliable data grounding.For enterprises using AI in customer service, HR, legal operations, finance, or internal knowledge systems, such errors are not rare. In fact, they've become a governance issue.Is Modern RAG the Solution?Enterprises tend to rely on data lakes as centralised storage for vast amounts of information. However, Marolda makes a point about how storage is no longer enough in the age of AI. “A data lake is just cheap storage,” he explained. “A knowledge layer is what actually activates that information for AI.”This difference is increasingly important as enterprises move from testing to operational AI deployment. Traditional storage systems can hold documents, but they cannot interpret relationships between data points, retrieve context semantically, or validate AI-generated outputs against source material.An enterprise knowledge layer, on the other hand, is designed to fill that gap. Marolda tells Dua that modern retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems can process unstructured data, apply optical character recognition (OCR), convert speech to text from video and audio, and build semantic connections across enterprise content.This enables AI systems to retrieve not just documents, but highly specific pieces of contextual information, including paragraph-level citations and timestamped video references.For enterprise leaders, the implications are significant. Rather than viewing AI as a separate assistant, enterprises are increasingly seeing AI as a retrieval and reasoning layer built on top of their knowledge ecosystems.How Should Enterprises Prioritise Efficiency Over Hype?The economics of AI was a critical discussion Marolda had with Dua. He noted that while many AI providers continue to push for higher token consumption and larger workloads, enterprises such as Progress Software are now beginning to value efficiency instead.Unlike NVIDIA's enterprise philosophy, as proposed by its CEO Jensen Huang, is a new compensation model where engineers receive annual AI token budgets worth half their base salary on top of regular pay. During a live interview on the All-In Podcast, recorded in San Jose, California, in March 2026 at Nvidia's GPU Technology Conference (GTC), Huang stated: "If a $500,000 Engineer Did Not Consume At Least $250,000 Worth of Tokens, I'm Going To Be Deeply Alarmed."“We're actually trying to reduce token consumption,” he explained. Such an approach contrasts with broader industry trends focused on maximising AI use at scale. As enterprise AI budgets become more established, CIOs and CFOs are scrutinising infrastructure costs, energy consumption, and long-term operational sustainability.It's particularly relevant as enterprises pit multiple LLMs against each other for quality, relevance, and cost efficiency. According to Progress's Sr. Product Marketing Manager, the next phase of enterprise AI adoption won't be driven by model capability alone. It will be guided by practical governance, meaning identifying which systems produce the best results at reasonable costs.Overall, successful AI adoption is not just about selecting the right model but, in fact, pivoting towards building the right knowledge architecture.For instance, enterprises continue to invest in generative AI; the enterprises that thrive may be the ones that can effectively structure, govern, retrieve, and validate their institutional knowledge.Key TakeawaysEnterprise AI hallucinations increase without grounded enterprise data.Agentic RAG helps enterprises reduce AI hallucinations and improve accuracy.Unstructured data is the biggest challenge in enterprise AI adoption.Enterprise knowledge layers improve AI governance and traceability.AI token reduction lowers enterprise AI infrastructure costs.RAG architecture helps enterprises scale trustworthy AI systems.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Enterprise AI and Knowledge Layer02:13 Challenges with Unstructured Data in AI08:11 The Importance of a Knowledge Layer12:04 Trust and Governance in AI Solutions16:48 Progress's Unique Approach to AI Solutions19:15 Agentic RAG: A New Paradigm in AI Retrieval24:52 Real-World Applications of Agentic RAG26:39 Maintaining Quality and Performance in AI Systems28:01 Key Takeaways for IT Decision MakersFor more enterprise AI, Agentic RAG, data governance, and enterprise knowledge layer insights, follow Progress Software across its official channels:Website: Progress SoftwareYouTube: @ProgressSWLinkedIn: Progress SoftwareX: @ProgressSWFor more
Adapt or die. What does that actually look like for a working filmmaker?Chicago documentary filmmaker Armin Korsos has a working filmmaker's answer to the question every documentarian is wrestling with right now. If you're not using AI, you will be losing work to people who do. In this conversation, Armin walks through how he turned 20 hours of pre-production paperwork into 30 minutes, how he uses AI image generation to send 40 pitches in the time it used to take to send 8, and why he believes the only currency that still matters in this industry is original ideas.In Episode 278, Christian sits down with Armin Korsos, founder of the Chicago production company Caymanite and co-founder of Filmmaker Friday Chicago, a film community event series that grew from 50 people at its first event to over 1,700 unique attendees in its first year.Born in the Cayman Islands to Hungarian parents, raised in the Chicago suburbs, and trained at Columbia College Chicago, Armin uses commercial production work to fund the documentary and narrative projects he cares about. He has a working filmmaker's take on AI (use it now or lose work to the people who do), a hard-earned theory about original ideas as the only currency that still matters, and a community he built for filmmakers who know the work can be a lonely process.In this episode, you'll learn:Why Armin says "if you're not using AI, you will be losing work to people who do"How a Hungarian-born, Cayman-Islands-raised, Chicago-trained filmmaker built a production company that funds his passion projectsWhat the Nvidia CEO said that changed how Armin thinks about original ideas when everyone has access to AIWhy Armin believes "you must be the creator if you want the IP" when working with AI toolsHow Armin found a local approaching age 90 on Cayman Brac with no phone number, no email, and no addressHow a former Premier of the Cayman Islands recorded the narration for Brac in an airport parking lotWhy an old-fashioned, boots-on-the-ground approach still beats the algorithm when looking for authentic voicesHow Filmmaker Friday Chicago grew from 50 people to 1,700 unique attendees in its first yearWhether film school is still worth it in 2026, and what to ask yourself before goingWhy Armin says luck is preparation meeting opportunity, and what that has to do with documentary filmmakingChapters0:00 If you're not using AI, you will lose work1:45 Why filmmaking can be a lonely process3:00 From the Cayman Islands to Hungary to Chicago6:00 Where are the Cayman Islands?

He also uses AI image generation for pitch decks, allowing him to send 40 pitches in the time it used to take to send 8. He spends 15 to 20 minutes every night learning new AI tools and updates.What did the CEO of Nvidia say about original ideas and AI?Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, has argued that AI has equalized the playing field by removing the gatekeeping of technical knowledge. In Armin Korsos's words, paraphrasing Huang: the differentiator between who is successful and who is not in the future is who has the best original ideas. The technical skill barriers are falling. What remains scarce is the original creative input.Can AI own the intellectual property of work it generates?Armin Korsos cautions filmmakers that the creator of a work is the one who owns the intellectual property. As he puts it, you must be the creative input or Claude has the creative IP. AI cannot do the creative work for you if you want to own what you make. This is a working filmmaker's practical answer to a question that is still being litigated in courts.What is Brac about?Brac is a 15-minute conservation documentary directed by Armin Korsos and edited by Ethan Edmonds, shot over three trips to Cayman Brac, a small island of about 2,000 people in the Cayman chain. The film explores the intersection of land rights, land management, the decline of the native brown booby bird, and the future of the island. It features a local named Tennyson Scott, approaching age 90 and narration by James Ryan, former Premier of the Cayman Islands.What is Filmmaker Friday Chicago?Filmmaker Friday Chicago is a film community event series co-founded by Armin Korsos and Parker Foster. It hosts mixers and panel discussions at venues across Chicago, including the Chicago Cultural Center in partnership with the Chicago Film Commission. The first event drew 50 people. By the fourth event the room held over 200. In its first year the series hosted over 1,700 unique attendees, all free of charge, which Armin describes as unofficially the largest consistent film community event in Chicago.DocuView Deja Vu PicksArmin's pick: Gamehawker, directed by Josh Isenberg. A 25-minute conservation documentary sponsored by Patagonia and publicly available on YouTube. About birds.Armin also mentioned: Plant Life, also directed by Josh Isenberg. Currently on its festival run, not yet publicly released.Christian's pick: The Billionaire, the Butler and the Boyfriend, directed by Baptiste Etchegaray and Maxime Bonnet. A three-part documentary series on Netflix from 2023 about the scandal surrounding Liliane Bettencourt, the L'Oreal heiress and once the richest woman in the world. The film solves a creative problem worth studying: how to dramatize a story where the only existing record is audio. The directors use blurred top-down security-camera-style reenactments to bring the recorded conversations to life.Sponsored by Virgil Films EntertainmentDocumentary First is sponsored by Virgil Films Entertainment.

Welcome back to the Tom Bilyeu Show Live, broadcasting straight from London, where Tom Bilyeu and Drew break down the world's most pressing news, geopolitical power plays, and technological disruptions. In this episode, they unpack the historic Trump-Xi summit in China — what it means for the Thucydides Trap, dollar diplomacy, Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, and the looming question of Taiwan — and why Trump bringing 20 of the world's biggest CEOs (Musk, Huang, Cook, Boeing, BlackRock, Goldman) may signal the most important pivot in modern US foreign policy. The conversation moves into the Bernie Sanders and AOC bill to freeze every AI data center in the country, why young people and women are leading the pushback, and why Tom argues this is a Manhattan Project moment we cannot afford to lose to China. They debate whether AI is a doomsday weapon or the path to an age of abundance, the real cause of resentment driving anti-AI sentiment, and what happens to the workforce when the Industrial Revolution plays out in five years instead of one hundred. From there, Tom and Drew take on Kamala Harris's new policy pitch and the Democratic Party's identity crisis, Gavin Newsom's "balanced budget" sleight of hand, what Tom learned doing a deep dive on the Nordic model (spoiler: Sweden is begging us to stop calling them socialist), the math problem of open borders plus a welfare state, and why Christopher Nolan's Odyssey casting has the internet at war before the movie even hits theaters. If you want no-nonsense geopolitical analysis, a brutally honest take on AI's impact on your future, and a call to greater personal responsibility in a populist moment, this episode cuts through the noise with clarity, history, and a little bit of humor.

Episode 224: Community Health Workers Dr. Arreaza: Today we will discuss a topic that, frankly, every single person listening, whether you're a medical student, a resident, a nurse, a family doctor, or any primary care provider, needs to really understand. We're talking about community health workers (CHWs). We are joined by our stellar medical student; you may be familiar with her voice from previous episodes about insomnia. Moira, welcome, please introduce yourself. Moira: I want to be upfront about why Community Health Workers matter to you specifically. If you've ever felt frustrated that your patient with uncontrolled diabetes keeps missing appointments because they can't get a ride, or that your heart failure patient was readmitted because nobody checked whether they could afford their medications, then you already understand the problem that CHWs are designed to solve. Dr. Arreaza: We're going to give you the definition of a CHW, the evidence behind their effectiveness, how they fit into your care team, the return on investment, and practical steps for integrating them into your practice. We have pulled information from a lot of peer-reviewed sources, and we want to share them with you. So, Moira, let's start with the basics. What exactly is a community health worker? Moira: Great question, and it's one that even literature struggles with, because there are so many titles for this role. Community Health Worker is an umbrella term that encompasses more than 20 different titles including outreach workers, promotores or promotoras de salud, community health representatives, lay health workers, peer educators, patient navigators, and many more. The American Public Health Association defines CHWs as frontline public health workers who are trusted members of or have an unusually close understanding of the communities they serve. Arreaza: And that trust is so important in health care. CHWs are not physicians. They are not nurses. They do not diagnose or prescribe. But they are like a bridge connecting the medical environment, social services, and the community to reduce gaps in healthcare delivery. Moira: Exactly. In the United States, the role was formally recognized in the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which includes several sections highlighting the key roles CHWs play in achieving important goals of healthcare. ________________ References: Aguerrebere, M., Rodríguez-Cuevas, F.

Last winter, Groq cofounder and CEO Jonathan Ross walked into a meeting with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang with a pitch for the companies' tech to work together. He now describes the synergy with a logistics analogy: stop building AI data centers as if every workload wants the same hardware. Training is bulk hauling; inference is last-mile delivery. GPUs can do both, but using the 18-wheeler even when you just need a van can be a lot slower. So: Nvidia's general-purpose GPUs are the big trucks. Groq's specialized chips—LPUs, or language processing units, designed to run models fast—are the smaller vans. “If you were building out a logistics network for the entire United States, and I told you your two options were all 18-wheelers or just delivery vans, which one would you pick?” Ross said. “The best answer is both.” Ross wasn't just pitching a worldview. He wanted Nvidia's permission to buy around 100,000 Blackwell chips, likely worth billions. Huang grilled him on the technical details, and then the meeting ended. When Huang called back three days later, Ross expected a discussion about his GPU purchase order. Instead, the Nvidia CEO cut to the chase. “We should probably move really fast,” Ross recalled him saying. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Nvidia's value reached the $5.5 trillion mark for the first time Wednesday, again breaking the record for the highest ever market capitalization in the history of publicly traded companies, as its stock rallied following news that centibillionaire CEO Jensen Huang is joining President Donald Trump's trip to China. Nvidia's market cap reached just over $5.5 trillion as shares surged 3% as of early afternoon. The rise in shares was accompanied by news that Huang was traveling with Trump to China, where the president will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping, following earlier reports that said he was not invited.

Most insurance producers spend their entire careers trying to fit in. They use the same scripts, wear the same suits, and pitch the same spreadsheets. But here is the hard truth: if you look like everybody else, you will be overlooked. In a crowded market, people pay a premium for scarcity.In this solo episode, I share my personal journey from being a "fat kid" in Size Husky jeans to a pro baseball player and, ultimately, a founder. I break down the mental trap of how the fear of judgment, comparison, and failure kills more insurance books than the competition ever could. We discuss the 20-60-20 Rule of prospect psychology, the four pillars of the Brand Authority Blueprint, and why elite producers measure themselves against the best version of themselves rather than their peers. If you're ready to leave the masses behind and recreate the future of your career, this episode is your wake-up call.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callcompletegameu.com/agaKEY MOMENTS(00:00) Growing Up as the "Chunky Kid" in the 80s(01:14) The Enemy: The Annual Presidential Fitness Test and the Fear of Judgment(02:20) Standing Out: How Baseball Turned Me into a One-of-One Athlete(03:08) The Mental Trap: How the "Fat Kid" Came Back During Pro Ball(03:47) The Clear Message: If You Look Like Everyone Else, You Will Be Overlooked(04:22) Scarcity Wins: Why People Pay a Premium for the Unique Advisor(05:49) Why We Are Afraid: Overcoming the Fear of Standing Out(06:16) The 20-60-20 Rule: Winning the Undecided 60% of Your Market(08:01) Stop People-Pleasing the 20%: Why You Shouldn't Fear Sharing Your "Good Stuff"(09:34) The Brand Authority Blueprint: Four Pillars to Becoming a One-of-One(11:09) Traits of the Elite: Why One-of-Ones Invest in Themselves and Crave Feedback(12:34) Lions Don't Compare Themselves To Donkeys(13:27) The Usain Bolt Standard: Chasing Personal Records, Not World Records(14:35) Recreating the Future: Following the Footsteps of Gates, Jobs, and Huang(15:50) The Challenge: Four Questions to Rewrite Your Professional FutureCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

Dr. Stephanie J. Wong and Zhengyu "Z" Huang discuss his new book, "Rethinking China: Challenging Our Economic Assumptions and Opportunities for Lasting Prosperity." Zheng explained that the book was inspired by a desire to address misconceptions about China's economy and explore opportunities for mutual prosperity. He assumed the role of president of the Committee of 100, a non-profit organization founded over 30 years ago by I.M. Pei to promote Chinese-American inclusion in America and enhance U.S.-China relations, working with White House administrations during the COVID-19 pandemic to advocate for safeguarding national security while protecting civil liberties, particularly in response to rising anti-Asian hate and violence. Interview highlights: How stereotypes and data based on assumptions can impact domestic and foreign policy Contributions of Chinese Americans that have positively shaped American society Chinese American History Research Project in the context of US history Need for community engagement and informed discussion about ways to improve national security and US-China relations.

n this episode, we sit down with Rev. Rae Huang, a candidate for Mayor of Los Angeles who is looking to bridge the gap between grassroots activism and City Hall. As a Presbyterian minister and a seasoned organizer with Housing Now! CA, Rae brings a unique perspective to the race—one rooted in "the theology of the neighborhood." We dive deep into her personal journey as a daughter of Taiwanese immigrants and a single mother, exploring how those lived experiences fuel her "Housing for All" platform. Rae breaks down her vision for social housing, her plan for a Public Bank of Los Angeles, and what it would mean to lead the city as the first Asian American woman in the Mayor's office.
He arrived in America as a child with no English. He was mistakenly sent to a school for juvenile delinquents. He faced rampant prejudice--yet Jensen Huang, the under-the-radar CEO of NVIDIA, became a catalyzing figure behind the AI revolution and built the most valuable company in the world. Listen as journalist Stephen Witt speaks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about how Jensen pivoted from manufacturing processing units for video games to leveraging their capacity into astonishing computing power and speed. They analyze why Huang bet so heavily on AI when no one else did, and why NVIDIA processors enjoyed almost unrivalled market dominance for so long. They also explore Huang's unique way of thinking and problem-solving—as well as his temperamental leadership style.
Bitcoin's Satoshi drama heats up again as a major journalistic “reveal” drops, just as the crypto industry gets rocked by a quantum computing breakthrough that pulls up security timelines—and AI-powered exploits are suddenly real. We break down Satoshi theories, Blockstream PR whispers, the new quantum risk landscape, Ethereum vs. Bitcoin migration pain, and why your favorite protocols might not be ready for North Korea or superintelligent bug finders. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week we're joined by Justin Drake, Ethereum Foundation researcher and the internet's favorite quantum attack alarm bell ringer. Things get spicy immediately: the eternal guessing game “Who is Satoshi?” gets a new round of attention as John Carreyrou (yeah, Theranos guy) drops a supposed expose pointing his finger at none other than Blockstream's Adam Back. The crew debates whether this Satoshi story is tired PR, inside baseball, or a genuine existential turning point for Bitcoin culture. Then things escalate: Justin walks us through Google and Atomic's quantum computing breakthrough—a real, validated step forward that potentially pulls the “Q-day” clock up to as soon as 2029. The implications? Bitcoin and Ethereum's security models are suddenly under the gun, and community denial is in full effect. Who's better poised to survive a quantum apocalypse… and is coin burning on the menu for Satoshi's stash? Later, we break down the Drift hack—North Korea's latest state-level heist, featuring IRL social engineering that sounds like Mr. Robot meets Oceans Eleven. Finally, it's an AI arms race: Anthropic's Mythos model is reportedly the most dangerous security researcher ever coded, and it's already quietly hardening corporate fortresses. Panic? Prepare? Both? One thing's for sure—there are no do-overs on the blockchain, so let's get into it.
