    What DeepSeek V4 signals for the global AI race beyond computing

    China's DeepSeek AI startup has unveiled its latest model, reportedly at just a fraction of the cost of comparable U.S. systems. Could that price edge help it win over users? Reports say the launch was delayed to align with Chinese-made chips, marking a shift toward domestic hardware. Is that trade-off worth it? And after a stark warning from Nvidia's CEO and fresh pressure from Washington, what does this moment mean for DeepSeek's global presence? Host TU Yun joins Thorsten Jelinek, a research fellow at the Hertie School's Center for Digital Governance, Berlin, Germany. He is currently a visiting professor at the Aerospace Information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences; Dr. Zhou Mi, a senior research fellow at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation; and Josef Mahoney, a professor of politics and international relations at the East China Normal University to break down what DeepSeek V4 signals for the AI race beyond compute.

Host TU Yun joins Yan Yan, a senior research fellow with the National Institute for South China Sea Studies, Qu Qiang, a professor and fellow of the Belt and Road Research Center at Minzu University of China, and Warwick Powell, an adjunct professor at Queensland University of Technology, to navigate the opportunities, challenges, and what lies beneath the surface.

    China's consumer rebound: What's really driving the new trends?

Host Tu Yun joins John Gong, Professor of Economics, University of International Business and Economics, Subramania Bhatt, the Founder and CEO of the Singapore-based marketing technology company China Trading Desk, and Chen Jiahe, the Chief Investment Officer of the Beijing-based Novem Arcae Technologies to find out the answers.
