A new wave of premium handhelds is on the way and MSI's upcoming Claw 8 EX AI+ is leading the charge. The company revealed its latest handheld during a hands-on event at its headquarters in Taipei, Taiwan before Computex 2026. The Claw 8 EX AI+ will follow up MSI's previous handhelds introduced in 2024 that start at around $800, but is reportedly going to cost as much as $1,500 . It comes out on June 23.

Japan is one of many locations in Asia where Chinese companies access American AI chips -- by renting hardware that's owned by foreign firms and installed in overseas data centers. Taiwan prosecutors suspect that three individuals successfully smuggled at least one shipment of Nvidia artificial intelligence chips to China after first exporting them to Japan, people familiar with the matter said. The trio was detained last week by Taiwan's Keelung District Prosecutors Office for allegedly falsifying documents related to exports of Super Micro Computer servers containing advanced Nvidia chips, which the U.S. has barred from sale to China without a license from Washington. The move marked the island democracy's first public crackdown on AI chip diversion after years of pressure from the U.S. to take a more active role in curtailing China's tech access. When Taiwan authorities apprehended the three defendants -- who've now been officially detained -- they also seized about 50 servers for which they accuse the trio of preparing fraudulent export documents. But at least one shipment had already gone through Taiwan customs, according to the people familiar with the matter, who requested anonymity to speak about an ongoing criminal investigation.

Taiwan's economy is booming thanks to AI. For Li, an engineer at Taiwanese computer giant ASUS, the AI boom sweeping Taiwan has made it an exciting time to work in tech. Taiwan is a semiconductor powerhouse, producing about 90 percent of the most advanced chips used to power leading AI models such as ChatGPT and Claude. Still, Li worries that the spoils of Taiwan's AI windfall are not being shared equally. "Most industries unrelated to tech don't seem to be feeling the benefits, so it doesn't feel evenly distributed at the moment," Li said, explaining that many of his former classmates working outside of tech do not appear to be doing as well.

Online Conformal Prediction (CP) struggles to balance temporal adaptability and structural stability. Feedback-driven methods (e.g., Adaptive Conformal Inference (ACI)) suffer from systemic marginal under-coverage and high interval variance during abrupt shifts, while temporally discounted Bayesian CP suffers from severe structural lag and uncalibrated interval bloat. We propose State-Adaptive Bayesian Conformal Prediction (SA-BCP) to achieve optimal spatio-temporal decoupling. By gating long-term temporal inertia with spatial kernel-density evidence, SA-BCP proactively expands intervals for recognized historical regimes while maintaining tight efficiency during stable states. We rigorously prove this mechanism's optimality, identifying a minimax bias-variance tradeoff governed by an evidence threshold $K$. Extensive benchmarks on volatile financial datasets (2016--2026), including AMD, Gold, and GBP/USD, demonstrate that SA-BCP consistently minimizes the strictly proper Winkler score across diverse confidence levels. Specifically, SA-BCP resolves the systematic under-coverage inherent to ACI variants while simultaneously reducing the uncalibrated interval bloat of Bayesian CP by 10\% to 37\% under high-confidence requests. By elegantly navigating this tradeoff, SA-BCP achieves an optimal balance between conditional reliability and predictive efficiency.

We present a systematic recipe for translating ReLU approximation results to softmax Transformers1. Given a constructive ReLU approximator for a target, we construct an explicit softmax transformer with the same accuracy. The recipe applies to many common approximation targets and yields quantitative resource bounds beyond universal approximation statements. This matters because broad Universal Approximation Properties (UAP) still dominate Transformer approximation theory. For softmax Transformer, many universality results provide explicit constructions and quantitative resource bounds (e.g., parameters, depth, width...etc) [Yun et al., 2020, Kajitsuka and Sato, 2023, Takakura and Suzuki, 2023, Jiang and Li, 2024, Hu et al., 2025,

China's DeepSeek unveils latest models a year after upending global tech China's DeepSeek has unveiled the latest versions of its signature artificial intelligence-powered chatbot, a year after its flagship model sent shockwaves through the global tech scene. The Chinese start-up launched preview versions of DeepSeek-V4-Pro and DeepSeek-V4-Flash on Friday as it touted its ability to go toe-to-toe with US rivals such as OpenAI and Google. The "flash" model has similar reasoning abilities to the "pro" version, while offering faster response times and more cost-effective pricing, the Hangzhou-based startup said. Like DeepSeek's previous chatbots, V4-Pro and V4-Flash follow an open-source model, meaning developers are free to use and modify them at will. The release comes after DeepSeek-R1 stunned the tech sector upon its launch in January last year with capabilities broadly comparable with those of ChatGPT and Gemini.

A Vegas Insider study combed through all 30 MLB teams' subreddits to find which fanbases swear the most online When you start thinking about which MLB teams' fanbases have the filthiest mouths, there's a good chance a few cities instantly jump to mind. But a new survey from Vegas Insider has found the most foul-mouthed fanbases in the MLB, and the top team might surprise you a little at first... and then it will make total sense. A new survey has found that Athletics fans are the most foul-mouthed in Major League Baseball. Technically, a franchise that played in Philadelphia at one point, but is now in Sacramento limbonow in Sacramento limbo ahead of a move to Vegas: the Athletics.
