Read excerpt
I had a chance to sit down with Damir Marusic of the Washington Post to discuss the current state of the chip war. Take a look at the full interview here.<source type="image/webp
China is not the solution to the US chipflation problem (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As memory chip prices spike, I look at the debate over CXMT, China’s leading producer of DRAM memory chips, in my latest piece for the Financial Times.CXMT is the world’s fourth-largest producer of DRAM, with plans to grow further.

This is why the U.S. government—after deciding to restrict Anthropic’s Fable model last month—has moved toward allowing a limited release. If it hadn’t, Chinese firms would have produced models with similar capabilities at some point in the not distant future. This race between US and Chinese AI firms has huge ramifications for the debate about limiting AI-induced risks.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"
