The Chinese AI lab came to prominence in early 2025 after launching a large language model that trained on a fraction of the compute power and at a fraction of the cost of the big U.S. models like those from OpenAI and Anthropic.

China has unveiled its new supercomputer, called LineShine, in Shenzen, which will deliver 2 ExaFlops of compute performance. The Chinese LineShine Supercomputer Is All Set To Become The Fastest In The World, Exceeding 2 ExaFlops During a conference at the National Supercomputing Center in Shenzhen today, the fastest domestic supercomputer project was announced. Known as LineShine, the Supercomputer will be built in two phases and will deliver over 2 ExaFlops of compute. Currently, the world's fastest supercomputer is the AMD-based El Capitan, which has a peak compute of 2.8 Exaflops. Coming to the specifications, the LineShine Supercomputer is purely a […]

DeepSeek says both models are more efficient and performant than DeepSeek V3.2 due to architectural improvements, and have almost "closed the gap" with current leading models, both open and closed, on reasoning benchmarks.

Chinese artificial intelligence lab DeepSeek claims to significantly reduce computing resources required for token inference and memory resources with its latest V4 model, according to its release notes. DeepSeek claims that the V4 AI model requires just 27% single-token inference FLOPs and 10% of key-value (KV) cache when compared to its predecessor, the DeepSeek V3.2 model. The reduction in cache requirements addresses memory requirements, with lower requirements conserving memory and increasing the context available to model builders when creating their models. How DeepSeek V4 Slashes Compute and Memory Costs In its release notes for DeepSeek V4, DeepSeek outlines that the […]
