China just launched a global AI body to rival the West. It's real, it's open to the Global South, and it's based in Shanghai.

China Announces Launch Of AI International Development Body - Bloomberg share.google/RhkQET6HEkH9mC… China just changed the game in Shanghai. While the U.S. clings to its AI export bans and feel-good safety summits, Beijing proposed a permanent global AI development body. It's real. It's structured. And it's not asking for Western permission. (1/13)

Huawei just wiped the floor with Nvidia. Not with better chips, but with a national strategy Nvidia can't even imagine.

investing.com/news/stock-mar… Huawei didn’t just build a bigger cluster. It built a national matrix. Nvidia, or any American firm, can’t replicate that. (1/10)

OpenAI and xAI just discovered the real AI bottleneck isn't chips. It's America’s broken, outdated power grid.

OpenAI follows Elon Musk’s lead — gas turbines to be deployed at its first Stargate site for additional power | Tom's Hardware share.google/VLrfhCDNBxXnCZ… OpenAI and xAI just learned America has only three disconnected power grids. No national plan. No coordination. Just chaos. (1/20)

Harvard built a paper-thin quantum chip. Media cheered. But China already left this field in the dust. Here's what they won't tell you.

Harvard’s ultra-thin chip could revolutionize quantum computing | ScienceDaily share.google/VZhvaR7N8knLqc… 🚨 Harvard’s metasurface chip is making headlines. But stop comparing it to Google. The real benchmark is China’s quantum supremacy. A thread. 🧵

China just pulled off something the West said was impossible. It didn’t sell carbon credits. It built a 330,000-node eco-surveillance grid.

thecooldown.com/green-tech/chi… China just built the world’s most advanced environmental monitoring system. 330,000+ stations. Real-time AI modeling. Ocean to sky.

It’s not a gadget story. It’s a civilization story.

They said China couldn’t make a gaming GPU. That was never the plan. Once you build the AI GPU, a gaming card is just a neutered sibling.
