< Back Chinese AI entrant sends US stock markets crashing 28 Jan 2025 DeepSeek, a Chinese AI chatbot, performed better than ChatGPT with fewer resources. DeepSeek, founded by Liang Wenfeng in May 2023, specialises in efficient and affordable open source large language models (LLMs). Open sourcing makes it available to researchers and developers. It has two models DeepSeek-V3 and DeepSeek-R1. DeepSeek uses Reinforcement Learning (RL), allowing its models to comprehend and improve more efficiently. Its models were built using 50,000 Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) compared to OpenAI’s 500,000 GPUs. DeepSeek’s cost-effective offerings caused the US tech indices to lose around $1 trillion. Nvidia’s stocks plummeted by 17% on Monday, and the company lost $589 billion in one day, the biggest single-day loss to a US company ever. Nvidia saw a meteoric rise in net profits from $4.8 billion in 2022 to $66.7 billion in 2024 mainly due to its GPUs that sell for $25,000 per piece. DeepSeek’s model used Nvidia’s GPUs for training. With this, Apple became the most valuable company globally again. Never miss another post from SalestorrsNews150. Follow Salestorrs on WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Facebook, X, and Instagram. Previous Next

< Back One app to track air, sea, land, and rail cargo coming soon 21 Dec 2023 National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (NICDC) is involved in developing the app. The NICDC is developing an app to track all consignments travelling by air, land, sea, road or rail. It will track and trace shipments according to their specific tracking codes, gauge the reliability of truck movement, and facilitate vehicle visibility in real time. This reduces lead time for the import-export cycle. It also identifies empty trucks and containers within a 50-kilometre radius, which enhances logistics efficiency, reduces inventory carrying costs and improves empty container management. It aims to bring down logistics costs to 5-6% of the GDP, compared to around 9% in FY22. Over 700 companies in the logistics, shipping, courier, and manufacturing domains have signed up on the app. Last year, the government launched a Unified Logistics Interface Platform (ULIP) under the National Logistics Policy (NLP), integrating 35 software of different ministries. The government is currently working on a truck hailing system, like cab booking apps. Previous Next

Trump a publié le décret le 20 janvier. < Back Cour américaine rejette l’ordre de Trump de supprimer la citoyenneté de naissance Trump a publié le décret le 20 janvier. Le janvier 20, jour de son entrée en fonction, Donald Trump a pris 42 décrets. L’un d’entre eux ordonnait aux institutions publiques de refuser la citoyenneté aux enfants nés d'immigrés sans papiers aux États-Unis ou de personnes bénéficiant d’un statut temporaire. Mercredi, la Cour d’appel du 9e circuit américain a rejeté une demande d’urgence du ministère de la Justice visant à lever le blocage du décret de Trump placé par un juge de Seattle. Les juges ont maintenu que l’ordonnance était contraire au 14e amendement constitutionnel de 1868 et à une loi qui l'a précédé. Alors que le verdict final appartient à la Cour suprême, des juges du Massachusetts, du Maryland, et du New Hampshire ont bloqué le décret. La Juge Danielle Forrest, nommée par Trump, a voté contre l’administration Trump, qui n’a pas pu prouver qu’il existait une situation d’urgence exigeant l’intervention immédiate d’un tribunal.

Les constructeurs automobiles tels que BYD, SAIC et Geely s’y opposent également. < Back BMW, Tesla poursuivent l’UE à propos des droits douaniers sur les VE chinois Les constructeurs automobiles tels que BYD, SAIC et Geely s’y opposent également.

Ils fabriquent des VE en Chine et les droits de douane supplémentaires pourraient nuire à leurs ventes et à leur rentabilité. Les frais de douane de 17 à 36,3 % sont entrés en vigueur le 30 octobre 2024. Le gouvernement allemand et quatre autres états membres de l’UE se sont opposés à ces taxes.

< Back Epic Games wins antitrust lawsuit against Google in the US 15 Dec 2023 The jury agreed with the video game maker, calling out Google’s Play Store practices monopolistic. On Tuesday, San Francisco-based video games maker and software developer Epic Games won a lawsuit against Google in the US. The gaming startup claimed that Google’s 30% commission on Play Store promotes monopoly, affects competition, and reduces innovation. Epic Games alleged that in 2021, Google made a $12 billion operating profit on the Play Store by enforcing dominating policies in the app market. The jury agreed with the startup, thus making it a momentous win against the digital giant. However, Google plans to challenge Epic Games in the US Federal Court. The win has encouraged startups worldwide and in India to fight against the hefty commission they call the ‘Google Tax’. The Competition Commission of India identified these issues in October 2020. It fined Google ₹936 crore for Competition Act violation, including making its in-house payment and billing system mandatory for paid apps and within-app purchases on the Play Store. Previous Next
