China's DeepSeek unveils faster AI model with domestic chip support

BEIJING, Aug 21 — Chinese artificial intelligence startup DeepSeek released on Thursday an upgrade to its flagship V3 model that the company says has a feature that can optimise it for Chinese-made chips, along with faster processing speeds. The focus on domestic chip compatibility may signal that DeepSeek's AI models are being positioned to work with China's emerging semiconductor ecosystem as Beijing pushes to replace US technology in the face of Washington's export restrictions. DeepSeek shook the technology world this year when it released AI models that compete with Western ones like OpenAI's ChatGPT while offering lower operational costs. The upgrade to DeepSeek's V3 model follows two other recent updates to its core models — an R1 model update in May and an earlier V3 enhancement in March. For domestic chip support, DeepSeek said in a WeChat post its DeepSeek-V3.1 model's UE8M0 FP8 precision format is optimised for 'soon-to-be-released next-generation domestic chips'. The company did not identify which specific chip models or manufacturers would be supported. FP8, or 8-bit floating point, is a data processing format that allows AI models to operate more efficiently, using less memory while running faster than traditional methods. The DeepSeek-V3.1 features a hybrid inference structure that enables the model to operate in both reasoning and non-reasoning modes, the company said in a WeChat post on Thursday. Users can toggle between these modes using a 'deep thinking' button on the company's official app and web platform, both of which now run the V3.1 version. The company will also adjust the costs for using the model's API, a platform that allows developers of other apps and web products to integrate its AI models, starting September 6, the statement showed. — Reuters

Chief Genocide Enabler Should Not Be Welcomed In Malaysia [Opinion]

By Professor Mohd Nazari Ismail BDS Malaysia Chairman Recently, the prime minister announced that US President Donald Trump is coming to Malaysia to attend the ASEAN summit, which is scheduled to take place at the end of October. This pleased Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim so much that he told Trump that he would be announcing the visit to the Malaysian parliament. The display of pride and happiness when he made the announcement was a stark contrast to the anger and disgust on his face when he spoke on previous occasions about how the Western governments were aiding Israel in committing genocide in Gaza. This very puzzling inconsistency is made worse by the fact that the US is the leading supplier of weapons used by Israel to commit genocide in Gaza. Since Germany recently announced that it will no longer supply Israel with weapons that can be used in Gaza, the US will be the ONLY supplier of such weapons. To make matters worse, Trump had recently announced to the world that he had managed to force many world leaders to 'kiss his ass' to negotiate for a lower tariff on exports from their countries to the US. These countries most certainly include Malaysia, which negotiated hard to reduce the tariff from 25 per cent to 19 per cent, whilst there were zero tariffs imposed on almost all US products exported to Malaysia. In addition, Malaysia agreed to invest in the US and purchase more American products, including additional orders of Boeing aircraft valued at tens of billions of dollars. There are differences in opinion on whether this deal benefits the US more than Malaysia since the US is Malaysia's third most important export destination, after China and Singapore. Moreover, the sectors that are involved – electrical and electronic products, palm oil and rubber employ a substantial number of workers. However, it can also be argued that the US, especially its consumers, will lose more by the imposition of high tariffs on Malaysian exports. Therefore, an alternative strategy is to call Trump's bluff, which was China's strategy. That could have imposed more pressure on Trump since his priority is to remain popular among American voters. In any case, what was more concerning was the reticence of the PM on whether he had raised the issue of Palestine with Trump during their telephone conversation. If the PM did not use the opportunity to pressure Trump to stop sending weapons to Israel, then that is indeed very saddening. All this while, the PM has been so vocal in saying that the world must do something to stop the genocide in Gaza. He should have used the opportunity to make Trump realise that Malaysians can never tolerate a leader who continues to be the leading enabler of the killings of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinian women and children. The whole world is now aware of what is happening in Gaza. Children are being deliberately shot by Israeli snipers, or blown to pieces by bombs and shredded into pieces of meat, either by being crushed by falling buildings or driven over by giant bulldozers. Now, Israel is deliberately making sure the Gazans will starve to death by blocking food from coming into Gaza. Hundreds are now dead due to starvation, and hundreds more are slowly dying of hunger, including babies. Based on the announcements made by Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders, it is very clear that Israel plans to occupy Gaza completely and displace as many Palestinians as possible. Israel's ultimate plan at the end of the genocide is to carry out ethnic cleansing of the remaining Palestinian population, which is a crime under international law. Israel can do this with impunity because of the unwavering backing by the US. The US is still supplying Israel with fighter jets, bulldozers and bombs that are being used to commit genocide in Gaza. In other words, Israel's impunity and deliberate crime of genocide in Gaza is due to the iron-clad support it is getting from Trump. When asked by a reporter about his response to Netanyahu's plan to take over Gaza City and displace more Palestinians, Trump said that it is up to Israel. In other words, Trump is deliberately allowing Israel to force Palestinians to leave their homes and their homeland permanently. Therefore, if Malaysia is serious about trying to protect the Palestinians, the minimum the prime minister should have done is to tell Trump directly to his face that the US should stop enabling Israel to commit genocide in Gaza. Instead, he exchanged pleasantries with Trump before extending the invitation to him to attend the ASEAN summit in Kuala Lumpur. So, where does that leave Malaysia's stated policy of unwavering support for Palestinians in their fight for freedom from the settler-colonial Zionist regime and her oft-expressed utter disgust with the parties that are enabling the genocide in Gaza? Malaysia has to rise above rhetoric and be consistent in its support for the Palestinian cause lest it too would be accused of hypocrisy, a charge that Malaysia itself has often levelled at the Western governments. It is still not too late for the prime minister to send a message to Trump that, because of the ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which the US is very much involved, he is not welcome to visit Malaysia.
