The G7 Communiqué is out. It covers a range of topics: trade, climate change, science and technology, artificial intelligence, anti-corruption, and so much more. This short thread 🧵 focuses mostly on the trade/tech/econ security themes.
whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
On artificial intelligence, the G7 recognizes the possible benefits but clear drawbacks of #generative AI. They will thus establish the *Hiroshima AI process,* a G7 working group, in cooperation with the OECD and GPAI, for discussions on generative AI later this year.
The trade section offers unequivocal support for the WTO right off the bat, celebrating positive outcomes from MC12 (ie, fisheries) and anticipates progress in other areas like the #JSI ahead of MC13. Unclear where the Biden administration views its relationship evolving re: WTO.

GERMANY IN TALKS TO LIMIT THE EXPORT OF CHIP CHEMICALS TO CHINA: BBG
The move could affect German companies including Merck, BASF. Chancellor Scholz has been striking a harder line on China.
#Germany #China #chips
The proposal is part of a package of measures that Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s government is discussing that would cut off China’s access to goods and services needed for the production of advanced semiconductors, according to people familiar with the matter.

Is the AI boom the saviour the chip industry needs right now? 🤔

#artificialintelligence #AI #chatgpt #chips #semiconductor

A thread 🧵:
(1/7) @MicronTech CEO (Sanjay Mehrotra) @MicronCEO believes AI is at least partly responsible for a potential turn-around in the chip industry’s fortunes, even as Micron experiences a rebound after 3 quarters of decline. 📈
@MicronTech @MicronCEO (2/7) “We continue to see AI as a secular driver of demand growth in the data centre”, said Mehrotra, who sees Micron as being well-positioned for memory and storage opportunities in AI and data-centric computing. 💾

💵🇷🇺 1/ Las #importaciones de #Rusia alcanzan niveles anteriores a los de febrero de 2022.

El embargo y sanciones parece que han dejado de ser eficaces (aunque tengan algo de efectividad).

washingtonpost.com/business/2023/…
2/ Las importaciones rusas de #chips se están recuperando con fuerza, aunque aún no están a niveles prebélicos.

Las sanciones, que tendrían que haber asfixiado la planta productiva rusa estrangulando la llegada insumos y bienes intermedios, está fallando.
3/ Esta realidad del fracaso el embargo occidental para estrangular la industria rusa cortando la llegada de insumos,

explica las crecientes noticias de los países occidentales presionando a países como Emiratos Árabes o de Asia Central.

Y bueno, ya sabéis: >>>Os Lo Dije<<<.

The man is accused of "fraud against the government" and "laundering proceeds from crime" and could face a long prison sentence.

The chips sold are suspected to have been used for spacecraft and rockets, but sources suggest they were likely used for the Moscow metro.

OK, so we just finished our 3-paper series on the #EUChipsAct.

The 3. paper assesses the effectiveness of the proposed #Crisis Response Toolbox.

stiftung-nv.de/en/publication…

We see many, many problems. Here's why... 🧵

#semiconductors #chips #chipshortage #Europe Image
The proposal talks about utilizing common purchasing, export restrictions and priority-rated orders during future chip shortages to ensure security of supply for Europe.

We also added national reserves since several countries (Spain, Japan...) are thinking about those.
Let's walk through the value chain, shall we?

Chips:
None of the tools are effective when applied to individual chips because semiconductors are...
- highly customized/not substitutable
- end-products (cars...) need ~1000 chips from all over the world

Con-call with 3 collegues. All #Banking #Security pros. They noted, via twitter, I had attended the @SCSpikes #NFTClassic. Asked me if I was into #NFTs, he is. No. I'm not. I'm like #baseball. Why? Three Reasons. I was asked by them to post my response.
1 - #Crypto/#Blockchain, like all complex mathematics fascinates me. I love it from a technical perspective, AND have worked on two functional commercial applications. But as an operational Day2Day transactional currency? It is loony-tunes impossible to make it pencil.
I was hired by a major credit card company to write a think piece on a 100% of the annual transaction and settlements. One major credit card company on blockchain by year 5 would consume 12% of the world's electrical generation. That alone...is nuts.

Similar to other types of slot contests, these password-protected tourneys can be run under different rules. Well, the one thing is for sure, players do not pay an entry fee, what’s more, they get a solid starting balance – bonus #CashbyCashApp or casino #CHiPs .
forum.melanoma.org/user/abgbet88/… Typically, punters can hit the reels of pre-selected games, it can be just one title or more of them, usually themed around a certain holiday or event, or made by a certain software provider. As for the duration of such tournaments, it can vary
lexaloffle.com/bbs/?uid=65157 dramatically, ranging from one hour to a month.

Even though you will come across numerous competitions available across all desktop and mobile devices, keep in mind that some online slot tournaments can be only accessed from a certain type of device.

Good news everybody!

The excellent @J_B_C16 and I teamed up (again!) to analyze what #China's rise in #semiconductors means for #EU. It's not 60 pages and 300 references like the last one (sorry).

Reading this are 20min well spent, promise!

This is the second paper based on our (@snv_berlin) cooperation with @merics_eu to make a deep dive into #China's #semiconductor ecosystem. The first paper assessed China's competitiveness in #chips and can be found here. stiftung-nv.de/sites/default/… (it's a "long-read").
In today's paper we distilled several #policy recommendations for the #EU in great expectation of the upcoming #EUChipsAct, future conversations at the EU-US Trade and Technology Council (#TTC) and in light of EU's #IndoPacific strategy.

Has anyone noticed the run-a-way #inflation in the #UsedCar market? Cars that were going for $1600 4 months ago are now going for $16,000– and they have 100,000 miles on them.
2/ Turns out that @JoeBiden’s #Chinese “friends” (read that bosses) are not making the #chips necessary for #NewCarProduction, but his @DNC admin is doing nothing. As usual. We need the real President back. ASAP!
#PresidentTrump would never have allowed it.

Personally, I think that most #tech companies, espechally those that try to bend themselves as pro-#envoirmental like @Apple, are not even close in offsetting the footprint of their products when they purposefully design products to be unserviceable.
Espechally since @Apple/#Apple goes out of their way to purposefully design their products to be #unserviceable and monopolize #replacement #parts down to single #chips like the #ISL9240.

There’s a long way to go before #China’s #chips catch up with those of top qualities. Total value of the integrated circuit industry in China was only 300 million yuan in 1999, while by last year, it has climbed up to 251.9 billion yuan, or 37 billion$, ranking No.2 in the world.
Despite the rapid increase, #Chinese products still only takes up 7.9% of the global #market, said Wei Shaojun, head of IMETU.
Bottlenecks in the development of #chips in #China:
1. Inadequate #manufacturing capacities cannot match the design demand - domestic #demands far exceed #supplies;
2. Mismatch of #resources;
3. Lack of professionals.
