China’s weather agency is testing more than a dozen artificial intelligence models in an effort to enhance its forecasting, with a system from Huawei Technologies Co. showing accelerated improvement.

Chinese tech giant Huawei (HWT.UL) launched its Pura 80 smartphone series on Wednesday, as the company seeks to cement its comeback in China's premium smartphone market following years of U.S. sanctions.

Nevertheless, Ren Zhengfei cautioned that Huawei still isn’t quite as successful as the U.S.’s fears make it seem.

Despite sanctions, Chinese companies are forging ahead with AI. The Huawei AI stack is optimised to run on the CloudMatrix 384 AI chip cluster.

The moves in AI and cloud infrastructure may deepen US concerns about China’s growing digital presence in Latin America.

Soon after the launch, a Chinese tipster has posted a teardown video of the Huawei Pura 80 Ultra, which reveals its complex camera design.

Huawei Technologies is expected to produce no more than 200,000 Ascend-series AI chips in 2025, according to the US Department of Commerce, highlighting China's advancing chip design capabilities while also exposing its enduring manufacturing constraints.

Huawei Digital Power and Peak Energy, a leading Singapore-based Independent Power Producer (IPP), officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding at SNEC 2025, forming a powerful alliance to fast-track the rollout of renewable energy solutions across the Asia-Pacific C&I sector.
