The Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIR), established by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in Hong Kong in 2019, unveiled its latest AI model, Cares Copilot 2.0, on Friday. The model is designed to support surgeons with tasks such as surgical planning, generating diagnostic reports, and retrieving similar case files. The upgraded model, building on its previous version released in March, was trained using Huawei’s Ascend 910B AI chip, which the company claims offers performance comparable to the Nvidia A100. According to CAIR Executive Director Liu Hongbin, Huawei’s chips “essentially meet” the lab’s research requirements, the South China Morning Post reports . Advancements in Huawei’s AI chip technology In August 2023, CAIR signed a memorandum of cooperation with Huawei to collaborate on integrating AI applications in surgery. Anticipating ongoing restrictions on access to high-end US chips, the research center sought alternative solutions. Since then, Huawei’s AI chip capabilities have progressed rapidly, according to CAIR’s leadership. As Liu explains, the progress of Huawei’s AI chips has been significant, and what initially took one to two months to complete with the same amount of data is now finished in about one week. Cares Copilot 2.0, built on Meta Platforms’ Llama 2 open-source large language model (LLM) and trained using Huawei’s Atlas 800T A2 server, has been implemented in hospitals such as the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou and the Prince of Wales Hospital in Hong Kong, according to Liu. CAIR’s advancements also illustrate how Huawei has filled the gap left by US chipmaker Nvidia, whose advanced chips are restricted in China due to US export controls. Huawei’s chips are now the top choice for Chinese research institutions and businesses. US restrictions propel development The Chinese giant recently highlighted that its Ascend 910B AI chip could match certain performance benchmarks of Nvidia’s A100. The company also plans to begin mass production of its most advanced AI chip, the Ascend 910C , in the first quarter of 2025, despite challenges in chip production due to US restrictions. The 910C chip, made by SMIC using its N+2 process, has a yield of only 20% due to a lack of advanced equipment. Advanced chips typically need yields above 70% to be commercially viable. Even Huawei’s 910B chip, also made by SMIC, has a yield of around 50%, causing delays in production and order fulfillment. However, the telecom conglomerate has sent samples of the new chip to several tech firms and has started taking orders. Huawei is at the center of US-China tensions over trade and security. Washington has imposed several restrictions on Huawei and other Chinese companies, citing concerns that their technological advancements could pose a national security threat to the US. Additionally, it is also at the heart of the China-US AI chip race, with Beijing turning to Huawei to spearhead the nation’s quest for semiconductor self-reliance.

I like Martha Stewart. Always have. Two recent documentaries, "Martha" on Netflix and the CNN series "The Many Lives of Martha Stewart," follow the Greek drama that make Stewart a cultural fascination to this day. They recount the jihad against this visionary who came under attack for being a woman with fierce ambition. Admittedly, Stewart's hardedged perfectionism and nuclear-powered drive had created some tension with her product, the "soft" home arts of cooking, flower arranging and chair reupholstering. But did she have to be destroyed? Sure, Stewart engaged in some insider trading that may have seemed nothing more than an innocent stock tip. She shouldn't have lied about it to the FBI. But did journalist Dominick Dunne have to call her the "Goddess of Greed" over a transaction that saved the creator of a billion-dollar business only $45,673? It sure didn't merit five months in prison. In 1987, the cultural hyenas jumped on her for signing a $5 million contract with Kmart. Stewart was allegedly "selling out" the domestic lifestyle she had cultivated, moving away from authenticity toward mass production and profit. People are also reading... Heaven forfend. The year before, The Disney Co.'s CEO walked off with a $90 million severance check after 14 months of undistinguished performance. She was tenacious. So what? Male executives wore that badge proudly. This woman built a business empire based on creating artistic cheese trays and making wreaths from dry leaves. Try that, Elon Musk. Some of her trouble came in the sub-message that our home lives had turned slovenly because Americans had stopped caring about family dinners and dust balls under the sofa. Some translated that not as a call to do better but as an indictment. But Stewart had no army. Those who accused her of creating unrealistic expectations for women juggling work and family should have been asked: Whose expectations? One could simply enjoy watching her on TV or reading her magazine, Martha Stewart Living. Her projects were properly labeled "aspirational." I once tried to follow her instructions for coloring cloth with natural vegetable dyes. Two hours later, I ended up with blotchy fabric and hands stained by beet juice. I tried, I failed, and I had a funny story to tell. I was intrigued by her demonstration on how to roll an ironed tablecloth in parchment paper to prevent wrinkles. And how nice that she could whip up 80 perfectly iced little cakes in no time. I can't do a single backflip. Must I resent Simone Biles for executing a triple-double in one move? It took Superwoman strength to plant an orchard with 122 trees and who knows how many rose bushes. One interviewer noted that people living in Detroit or New York City couldn't do rose gardens. She responded, "But yes, they want roses." The fantasy was more than half the point. Women were among her leading inquisitors. One called her "the most intimidating homemaker on earth." Another female interviewer tells her, "Either they worship you or they say you make us crazy." There was a third possibility that they found her entertaining. Stewart can lay claim to two heroic feats: She played a big part in improving the quality of American homelife. And she rebuilt a business that had been left for dead. Above all, Martha was a great tough broad. You saw how TV's Larry King kept badgering her about her failed marriage in a way that would have seemed bizarre had the executive been a man. "I had sacrificed a marriage because of the allure of a great job," she finally relented. And she didn't regret it? She did not. I like Stewart, still going strong at 83. More than ever.
