Some personal news: I’m thrilled to announce that I officially joined @Reuters today as their Taiwan Technology Correspondent. I’ll be focusing on #TSMC and the #chip industry. Any tips are welcome! wen-yee.lee@thomsonreuters.com

@z_edian Pretty simple: we keep AI busy with defending against AI. Like the war in “quality land.”

@watn_tarnation @AdsoOfBelk The source states 41 million dispersed annually. I would assume that most people who are on it get 4-12 prescriptions a year, so closer to 5-13 million actual people.

kinda nuts that 41 million Americans are on prescription Adderall. am I the only one of you raw dogging cognition?

@jacob_feldgoise @ChorzempaMartin @pstAsiatech Second time this news outlet misconstrued Huawei central as an official Huawei publication.
English
I don't think this DIGITIMES report is accurate.
It cites Huawei Central (news outlet), which cites a tweet, which cites a random person on Baidu Tieba who was *speculating* about possible specs for the next generation Kirin chip (links below)

I guess we found the reason Commerce wants ASML to cancel those service contracts.

@RebeccaArcesati They already did, and actually added the firm and two hackers to their sanctions list. gov.uk/government/new… From what I can see, first time UK adds Chinsee entity to cyber sanction list since 2020 (when it coordinated with EU).

@ToniHDS Meanwhile, the 🇬🇧 is also expected to move ahead with attribution after Chinese state-affiliated hackers allegedly accessed millions of voter records: wsj.com/world/europe/u…

Italian @ipacglobal members request further info from Undersecretary of State Alfredo Mantovano, who oversees the intelligence services on behalf of the PM, following the DOJ’s sanctions on 🇨🇳-affiliated hackers (APT31) accused of hacking IPAC members, among other targets.

DICHIARAZIONE CONGIUNTA SEN. ENRICO BORGHI E ON.ROBERTO GIACHETTI @bobogiac Secondo un atto d’accusa del Dipartimento di Giustizia USA reso pubblico oggi (justice.gov/opa/pr/seven-h…), ogni membro europeo dell’IPAC -(400 account email legati all’organizzazione nel 2021) è stato bersaglio di operazione di cyberspionaggio gestita dal Ministero cinese per la Sicurezza dello Stato (MSS) nel 2021. Secondo tali fonti, anche i sottoscritti -membri del Parlamento e aderenti all’IPAC (Assemblea Inter-Parlamentare sulla Cina, organismo inter-parlamentare che raccoglie 200 Parlamentari di 20 Paesi) sarebbero stati bersagli di una simile attività ostile. Reputiamo tale eventualità -qualora fosse reale e confermata- estremamente lesiva delle prerogative e della libertà dei parlamentari italiani, e chiederemo con atto di sindacato ispettivo al Sottosegretario Mantovano, Autorità Delegata per la Sicurezza della Repubblica, di fornire delucidazioni in merito, anche alla luce della autorevolezza della fonte. Abbiamo anche provveduto ad informare della questione il presidente del Copasir, on. Lorenzo Guerini, per il seguito di competenza.

@thorstenbenner The statements around the microsoft exchange hack were very revealing as well. UK clearly attributed to China, while EU urged China‘s government to crack down.
English
UK couldn't be clearer in its statement on 🇨🇳 activities.
🇪🇺 countries should strongly stand by UK.
It shouldn't take 5 painful paragraphs before EEAS drafters get themselves to include weak mention of the threat actor at the heart of this: Beijing.

@RebeccaArcesati @METhorley The Chinese government obviously takes MERICS seriously, soo…

Me: literally any take on 🇨🇳, no matter the topic, my knowledge, the amount of evidence I cite.
Some sinologists: your employer’s sanctioned so why should we take you seriously?
People, if you have a PhD, I really expect you to be able to sustain a good-faith argument 🤦🏻♀️

Washington’s regular tweaks will make its high-tech #exportcontrols more effective in the short term, but trickier to manage beyond that, say @ToniHDS & Wendy Chang. They discuss the long-term side-effects for #China and the US in their new comment: merics.org/en/comment/tec…

@GlennLuk @FuDaoge @hofrench As long as state investment in infrastructure is useful, it confers benefits to citizens. If your town of 100.000 gets its third airport, probably less beneficial. Your savings are thus used for ”bad“ public investment, which characterizes Chinese investment since at least 2008.

#Taiwans #Chipindustrie ist entscheidend für China. Eine Eskalation nach den taiwanesischen Parlamentswahlen ist unwahrscheinlich. Trotzdem behält Taiwan die Herstellung der modernsten #Chips bei. Antonia Hmaidi vom @merics_eu analysiert die Situation.

As tensions over Huawei intensified in 2019, 🇨🇳 leaders knew the 🇺🇸 was serious about cutting access to key tech.
That is when Beijing asked a group of experts for help.
This piece on how their thinking shaped 🇨🇳's self-reliance drive. Thx @Arranjnh for edits!

Excited to see the outcome of a year-long research endeavor and a fantastic team effort at @merics_eu. Together w/ @ToniHDS, @kavocabo and Wendy Chang, I spent much time and energy trying to understand what one may call the Europe-🇨🇳 AI relationship: 🧵

@yiqinfu We don’t have any LNG in Germany either. Considering who was president when the US started to export LNG, installing a terminal probably did not seem great, especially as Russian energy had served Germany well.

@jordanschneider Also, the chart does not show Vietnam having the highest conversion rate among countries with >100 subscribers or among any countries, since the U.S., I assume, has more than 100 subscribers.
English
@jordanschneider In that case, the chart is mislabeled. Do you have confidence in what is the true answer? I definitely don’t.If people actually start making decisions based on this without understanding and double-checking, quite dangerous. To me, this is like having an intern run the analysis
