China Is Suddenly Deploying AI Everywhere

While the United States rushes head-first into a self-inflicted economic crisis in an attempt to develop AI with human-level intelligence, China is eying a different goal. Last week, the Chinese State Council unveiled its ten-year plan to fully integrate AI into every aspect of the country's economy by 2035. Called "AI+," the ambitious plan sees AI becoming a "key growth engine for the country's economic development," a transformation mirroring that of the internet age. As the Wall Street Jour

Silksong reviews drop to mostly negative for Chinese players due to confusing translations

For most Hollow Knight: Silksong players, the combat is challenging and the boss fights are punishing. However, there's another layer of complexity for anyone playing the sequel in Simplified Chinese: the bizarre translations. On its Steam store page, Silksong currently sits at a "Mostly Positive" rating across reviews in all languages. Once you filter for the Simplified Chinese reviews, the Metroidvania-style game plummets to "Mostly Negative." There are plenty of complaints about Silksong bei

China's Electric Car Industry Is in Deep Trouble

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-17 06:14:50

China's electric vehicle industry is, by most accounts, experiencing unprecedented boom times: the cars are cheaper, consumers more primed to purchase them, and there are lots of viable options outside of Tesla. Unfortunately, that competition comes with a price — or rather, with a price war. As the New York Times reports, rabid competition among about 50 of the country's top EV automakers has led to repeated price-slashing in a manic hunt for new buyers. As those manufacturers race to the bott

Busy beaver hunters reach numbers that overwhelm ordinary math

But just how much harder? In 1962, the mathematician Tibor Radó invented a new way to explore this question through what he called the busy beaver game. To play, start by choosing a specific number of rules — call that number n. Your goal is to find the n-rule Turing machine that runs the longest before eventually halting. This machine is called the busy beaver, and the corresponding busy beaver number, BB(n), is the number of steps that it takes. In principle, if you want to find the busy beav
