- Why China’s feverish use of AI tools could shape how the tech is used globally
On a recent weekday, around 50 people gathered outside the headquarters of a Chinese mobile internet company, waiting to get help with installing an artificial intelligence assistant . The scene in Beijing, China’s capital, was repeated for days at several events and was also seen in the southern technology hub Shenzhen in March, as engineers helped crowds trying to set up the popular AI “agent” OpenClaw on their laptops. “I’m worried about falling behind in technological developments,” said Sun Lei, a 41-year-old human resources manager at the Cheetah event. She said she hoped the tool might help her source and screen resumes across various recruitment platforms. More than a year after OpenAI’s Chinese rival DeepSeek stunned the world with its advanced AI model , China has become a testing ground for mass use of AI tools. AI models built in the United States still dominate in raw computing firepower, but Chinese people and businesses have rapidly embraced the technology, facilitating

- Chrome’s AI features can take up to 4GB of space on your computer
Google Chrome can automatically download a local AI model that takes up to 4 gigabytes of hard drive space on a computer when certain AI features are enabled, according to The Verge . The file, called weights.bin, is used by Google’s Gemini Nano AI model to provide writing assistance, autocomplete, and fraud protection directly on the device. (Nano has been around since Gemini was introduced in late 2023 .) Since the model runs locally, the AI data is stored on the computer instead of in the cloud, which can provide better privacy, but also takes up storage space. Users can check whether the file is present by looking for the OptGuideOnDeviceModel folder in Chrome’s system files. To free up the space, users need to disable the on-device feature in Chrome’s settings under Settings > System.

- Intel, behind in AI chips, bets on quantum and neuromorphic processors
Intel for years chopped critical products including CPUs, GPUs and networking gear to cut corporate fat and get back into shape. Many cuts pre-date the appointment last year of Lip-Bu Tan as CEO. Now, Tan is placing a long-term bet beyond the current crop of AI chips and doubling down on quantum processors and neuromorphic chips, which survived Intel’s earlier product cuts. Tan has now tapped company veteran Pushkar Ranade to be Intel’s new chief technology officer, with a mission to drive developments in “quantum computing, neuromorphic computing, photonics, and novel materials,” the chipmaker announced this week. The move is a longer-term bet, according to Dylan Patel, CEO of semiconductor research firm SemiAnalysis. “It’s a bit further out stuff he is doing, so it wouldn’t help with the next two years of products,” he said, adding that Ranade is an excellent choice for Intel’s move into future computing models. Multiple analysts said Intel’s quantum group has been hindered by limite
