The Chinese Supernode boom

While the US government is still busy restricting the export of Nvidia's GPUs to China, China itself is increasingly using AI supernodes. The clusters consist of Huawei (Ascend) or Alibaba (Panjiu) GPUs. In single-core performance, they lag behind their Western counterparts. Still, the clever integration of every layer

Deutsche Quellen für KI

Die Problematik der Datenquellen, mit denen KI-Modelle trainiert wurden, ist sehr vielschichtig. Zum einen inhaltlich, wo bereits diverse Forschungsprojekte gezeigt haben, wie verzerrt und einseitig die Quellengrundlage ist und wie teilweise auch einfach Fehlinformationen verarbeitet werden. Zum anderen natürlich auch rechtlich, wie das Beispiel von Meta gezeigt hat. Dort kam

CXMT - Der chinesische Speicher-Riese

Der Markt für High-End-Speicher wurde lange von zwei koreanischen Firmen (Samsung, SK Hynix) und dem US-Hersteller (Micron) dominiert. So ziemlich alles, was an schnellem Speicher in teuren Smartphones, KI-Rechenzentren oder Grafikkarten steckt, stammt von diesem Trio. Während bei vorherigen Generationen (bis DDR4) mittlerweile schon ein beträchtlicher Marktanteil chinesischen Herstellern gehört,
