It's taken Huawei just four years to become a force in smart car technology, navigating the devastation of trade sanctions on its smartphones business while simultaneously developing a driver assistance system that is the darling of the Beijing auto show. Huawei Technologies has two huge booths at this week's event, and there are at least seven Chinese automakers touting its Qiankun installed in their cars as the most sophisticated advanced driving assistance system (ADAS) to date. Even Germany's Volkswagen will equip its China-made, China-bound Audi Q6L e-tron with Qiankun upon the car's 2025 launch, in Huawei's first deal with a foreign automaker, two people with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

U.S. export controls on sending advanced computing chips to China are not meant to hold back China's economy or technological development, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said during an interview with National Public Radio on Friday. Since 2022, U.S. officials have imposed sweeping controls on which computing chips can be exported to China, cutting off some sales from Nvidia, Advanced Micro Devices and Intel, among others.

U.S. export controls on sending advanced computing chips to China are not meant to hold back China's economy or technological development, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said during an interview with National Public Radio on Friday. Since 2022, U.S. officials have imposed sweeping controls on which computing chips can be exported to China, cutting off some sales from Nvidia, Advanced Micro Devices and Intel, among others. But U.S. officials have granted at least two U.S. companies - Intel and Qualcomm - licenses to keep shipping chips to Huawei, which is using an Intel chip to power a new laptop model.

STORY: TikTok's algorithm has played a key role in the app's major success.Its unique content recommendation technology is what predicts which videos will pique user's interest.And it has attracted more discussion than the technology used by rivals, like Instagram and YouTube.Let's take a closer look at how it works.Before TikTok, many believed that technology built on users' social connections were the secret sauce to a successful social media app. Such technology helped Meta's Facebook and Instagram become widely popular.But TikTok showed that an algorithm that's driven by the understanding of a user's interest could be even more powerful.Reuters China tech correspondent Josh Ye explains."TikTok is a little different from the previous generation of social networks, where algorithms were built on top of what it called a social graph. But then with TikTok, it actually revolves around what it calls interest signals."While competitors have similar interest-based algorithms, TikTok is able to turbocharge its effectiveness with the short video format."If you think about YouTube, the average length of a video is about 10 minutes. So the user interaction with it is a lot more stagnant when it compares to TikTok where you get 10 second videos, right? If you're scrolling through it and you like it or you follow it, that's sending through a lot of different data points to TikTok, which can determine whether this really suits your interest. So the speed at which it collects this data is unprecedented compared to a previous generation or social networks."But it's not just about feeding users what they want. TikTok also regularly recommends content that falls outside of users' interest, which the company has said is essential to TikTok's user experience.TikTok's Chinese owner ByteDance was also an early adopter of the so-called tagging strategy."Through our conversations with some of the ex-ByteDance employees, we realized that there's one very unique advantage that TikTok has over the Western social media platforms, which is they focused very early on tagging or labeling every user and as well as every video that's on their platform. And they not only do it through machine vision. But then they also actually hire a bunch of people to manually, laboriously annotate a lot of these kind of content and user profiles on their platform. And as you know, in China the labor cost is a lot cheaper. So ByteDance can afford to be deploying this strategy very quickly and at a large scale or more so than its Western counterparts."
LONDON (AP) — TikTok is in the crosshairs of authorities in the U.S., where new law threatens a nationwide ban unless its China-based parent ByteDance divests. It would be the biggest blow yet to the popular video-sharing app, which has faced various restrictions around the world. TikTok is already banned in a handful of countries and from government-issued devices in a number of others, due to official worries that the app poses privacy and cybersecurity concerns. Those fears are reflected in t
Republican China hardliners Marco Rubio and Elise Stefanik are calling on the Biden administration to block all sales to Huawei after the sanctioned Chinese tech company released a new laptop powered by an Intel AI processor chip. The release of Huawei's first AI-enabled laptop, the MateBook X Pro powered by Intel's new Core Ultra 9 processor last week, drew fire from Republican lawmakers, who said it suggests that the Commerce Department had given the green light to Intel to sell the chip to Huawei.
