 Ezra vogels wonderful contributions to humanity showed over 2000 yeras best for the world progress for asians and the world happen when china and japan design win-win  intergenerational relations (asians are amongst the most caring family builders - i wish they would unite the world around that common sense)

 so while the science of chinese customers boycotting japanese post-nuclear producrts may not exist its certainly high time the peoples of these 2 amazing countries turned a coener on fearing each other - I don't really understand where this fear comes  (surely family loving elders wanted their 21st C millennials to advance hunan rights) 78 years on from world war 2 - dont both nations peoples deserve to be celebrated for extraordinary human development the peoples lifetimes have achieved  

there is another issue - has the west been absolutely out of its mind investing so much in niuclear research and so little in sun and photosynthesis- i guess climate outcomes will be the jury on this but just as one person out of 8 billion as well as quite a deep student of von neumann a120s.com I believe pretending nuclear was the answer to earth not sustaining 8 billion carbon guzzlers was a special kind of ignorance sadly linked to support of violence in the very few places around the world whose peoples regularly vote for that

returning to good is possible when china and japanese peoples deep respect of each other is nurtured by consciousness cultures they have both built with each other --this not a disimilar finding from when uk and continental europe relaltions are win-win - back in 1955 when dad was only journalist at birth of EU Messina this was the plan- but it was ripped up from 1962 by the common agricultural policy and ever since the eu has been multiplying risks of the world war lab shaking its dismal head for the 3rd time- geonomics of the peoples locked in land between arctic circle and the landbridge to the tricontinent eg lebanon/jerusalem and the canal have been where all world wars are platted- the academically  most ignorant policies out of paris-brussels-berlin for perpetuating world war lab beggar the human spirit everywhere- so why do the two thirds of humans who are asian still cowtow to the west

    FORBES RICH LIST

    by 
    Anna Fleck,
     
    Jun 19, 2023

    According to Forbes’ Real-Time Billionaires List, as of June 19, Mukesh Ambani is the richest man in Asia, with a net worth of $91.4 billion. Ambani is the chairman of Reliance Industries Limited, a conglomerate that focuses not only on petrochemicals, but also textiles and telecommunications. He ranks 11th on Forbes’ worldwide list, which is headed by Elon Musk (Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter) with $236.9 billion, Bernard Arnault & family (LVMH) with $231.9 billion and Larry Ellison (Oracle) with $156.2 billion.

    In second place - and some 27 billion dollars behind - comes 68-year-old Zhong Shanshan, with a net worth of $64.2 billion. Shanshan is the founder of beverages company Nongfu Spring as well as the founder of Beijing Wantai Biological Pharmacy Enterprise, a private Chinese company that is a major supplier of Covid-19 testing kits. He is succeeded by Gautam Adani (60), who is the chairperson of the Adani Group, a conglomerate that deals with businesses exporting and importing raw materials and finished goods, including coal trading, mining, oil and gas exploration, as well as ports, energy and agricultural commodities.

    As the following chart shows, the two Asian BRICS countries stand out here, with China accounting for three out of eight people in this ranking (five out of eight if including Hong Kong), while Indian figures take two out of the top three positions. Also of note is the range of industries included on the list, many of which are relatively new sectors that are shaping the world today, from a pharmaceuticals company that creates vaccines, to social media platforms ByteDance (owner of TikTok) and Tencent (owner of WeChat), through to lithium-ion battery production. Gaming too ranks high, coming in ninth place, with NetEase, one of the world’s largest online and mobile games businesses, owned by China’s William Lei Ding (51), who has an estimated net worth of $31.2 billion.

    Rounding off the top ten comes Colin Zheng Huang (43) of e-commerce giant Pinduoduo, which is the largest agricultural platform in China, with an estimated net worth of $28.1 billion. The top ten richest people in Asia - all of whom are men - have a total net worth of $459.9 billion.

    ChinAI #232: The Wudaokou Origins of China’s Large Models

    JEFFREY DING
    AUG 7
     
    SHARE
     

    Greetings from a world where…

    we all make sure to drag our favorite newsletters from the promotions tab to the primary tab, right?

    …As always, the searchable archive of all past issues is here. Please please subscribe here to support ChinAI under a Guardian/Wikipedia-style tipping model (everyone gets the same content but those who can pay support access for all AND compensation for awesome ChinAI contributors).

    Feature Translation: A Brief History of Large Models in Wudaokou

    Context: If you’ve ever been an international student in Beijing, the Wudaokou area probably conjures up wonderful feelings. Please, take me back to those Thursday nights playing beer pong at Sugar Shack. For The Washington Post’s neighborhood guide, here’s Yifan Zhang on this magical neighborhood:

    To some people, Wudaokou, or WDK, which means “where five roads meet,” is where poor students and coders hang out. For others, it’s not only quintessential modern Beijing, it’s also the Center of the Universe (a nickname for WDK). You can study, fundraise, create a unicorn start-up company and go out to have fun, all within a square mile or two.

    In this week’s feature translation, which takes us back to 2018, Wudaokou is where Chinese AI scholars gather to discuss the paradigm shift in language models marked by Google’s BERT. The neighborhood also becomes home to the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI), which plays a key role in the history of China’s large language model development. This longform Leiphone article (link to original Chinese) is written by Caixian Chen, who also co-authored an awesome history of Chinese University of Hong Kong as a cornerstone of China's computer vision Scene (ChinAI #201)

    Key Passages: We begin with BERT:

    On that day, October 11 (2018), an ordinary Thursday, Zhiyuan Liu opened up the arXiv page as usual to browse the latest work in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) uploaded by scholars from all over the world. Most of the time, the quality of papers on arXiv is uneven, and Zhiyuan Liu only browsed roughly to get general information; but this day, he was profoundly drawn to a paper attached to the Google language team.

    Originally, I just clicked in and glanced at it, but the more I looked at it, the more fascinated and surprised I became. After turning off the computer, I still couldn’t regain my senses for a long time, and was overwhelmed by the thoughts in it. Sure enough, he soon discovered that this paper also attracted widespread attention from other AI scholars in China. Professors and students from schools such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, Renmin University of China, and Fudan University were also enthusiastically discussing the work.

    Everyone had a vague feeling: "This may be another technological paradigm revolution in the field of AI.”

    This work is the famous BERT paper that has been cited more than 70,000 times in Google Scholar - "BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding.”

    A fun naming details about two different Chinese teams that wanted to name their models ERNIE (to compete with Sesame Street rival BERT):

    • Zhiyuan Liu was at Tsinghua University’s Natural Language Processing Lab. After BERT’s release, he cooperated with researchers from Huawei’s Noah’s Ark Lab and submitted a pre-trained language model named ERNIE to the top NLP academic conference, ACL, in 2019.

    • At the same time, Baidu’s NLP team was also working on a pre-trained language model that they named ERNIE. Since Baidu posted on arXiv first, Zhiyuan Liu and others changed their name, and so Baidu has continued to use the ERNIE name for its large language models (e.g., the ErnieBot model I covered last week).

    The reaction after OpenAI releases GPT-3

    • From the article: “On the one hand, everyone is excited about GPT-3; on the other hand, they feel a huge gap in their hearts. Before this, most Chinese scholars felt good about themselves, and felt that the level of papers published by domestic teams was comparable to that of American universities; after GPT-3 came out, they realized that there was still such a big gap between themselves and the top international level.”

    • Some scholars, including Zhiyuan Liu, decided they would shift their entire research direction to large language models. This aligned with the establishment of BAAI, headquartered in — guess, where?! — Wudaokou, which became a cornerstone for gathering outstanding AI researchers in the area.

    • After eventually reaching a consensus to work on large models, BAAI still needed to decide on a name for the project.

    “Tsinghua Professor Tang Jie suggested that the name had something to do with Wudaokou, because everyone was in Wudaokou and had deep feelings for Wudaokou, so everyone thought of a few names together…After a brainstorm, Ruihua Song from Renmin University proposed to call it "Enlightenment" (wudao), which sounds like "五道 [the neighborhood name]" (wudao), and everyone agreed.”

    Great details on computing power limitations:

    • Chen reports: Since large models require large computing power, BAAI also began to invest heavily in computing power and other resources from October (2020). At the beginning, BAAI planned to use the existing scientific research funds to purchase 300P (Petaflops?). Mayor Chen Jining made a decision to strongly support it, and then decided to allocate funds from the special funds to purchase 700P, so the total is 1000P. However, the process of going through approvals and purchasing computing power dragged on for more than a year, so Wudao mainly relied on renting computing power in its start-up phase.”

    • The Beijing Mayor comes across pretty well in this article. After BAAI relayed its plan to develop large-scale language models: “Mayor Chen said excitedly: ‘This (large-scale model) is the nuclear explosion point of artificial intelligence in the future. It will bring about the vigorous development of the entire production ecosystem.’ The Beijing Municipality decided to strongly support and approve special funds for BAAI to purchase computing power.”

    A very important point to conclude. BAAI did not restrict the research freedom of its affiliated scholars, and almost all of them worked at other labs and universities.

    • As an example, in one BAAI group, Hongxia Yang was leading Alibaba’s efforts to develop large language models. Zhilin Yang, co-founder of Recurrent AI, was working on the PanGu model with Huawei. As the article concludes: “Wudao not only serves as a bridge between scholars, but also strengthens the cooperation between academia and industry.”

    This week’s translation takes us up to the launch of BAAI’s Wudao 1.0 and Wudao 2.0 models, which I analyzed over two years ago in ChinAI #145. Next week’s translation starts with a section titled “The Eve of ChatGPT.”

    WHY INDIA NEEDS TO LOVE CHINA NOW NOT ENGLISH SPEAKING CHIEFS

    Happy 175 James--Our hopes that scots, economist and media people could help end poverty began 175 years ago with this charter for all world class branding colaborations of end poverty


    We have made such arrangements and under such superintendence, as will secure the accomplishment of all that we propose, in a way which we trust will render our objects and exertions useful to the country: we have no party or class interests or motives; we are of no class, or rather of every class: we are of the landowning class: we are of the commercial class interested in our colonies, in our foreign trade, and in our manufactures: but our opinions are that not one part of these can have any lasting and true success that is not associated and co-existing with the prosperity of all.

    And lastly—if we required higher motives than bare utility, to induce that zeal, labour, and perseverance against all the difficulties which we shall have to encounter in this work—we have them. If we look abroad, we see within the range of our commercial intercourse whole islands and continents, on which the light of civilization has scarce yet dawned; and we seriously believe that FREE TRADE, free intercourse, will do more than any other visible agent to extend civilization and morality throughout the world—yes, to extinguish slavery itself. Then, if we look around us at home, we see ignorance, depravity, immorality, irreligion, abounding to an extent disgraceful to a civilized country;

    and we feel assured that there is little chance of successfully treating this great national disease while want and pauperism so much abound: we can little hope to improve the mental and moral condition of a people while their physical state is so deplorable:—personal experience has shown us in the manufacturing districts that the people want no acts of parliament to coerce education or induce moral improvement when they are in physical comfort—and that, when men are depressed with want and hunger, and agonized by the sufferings of helpless and starving children, no acts of parliament are of the slightest avail.

    20 years ago Jim Rohwer published Asia Rising and was plotting launching the equivalent of The Economist in Asia. (some personal research available by dad Norman macrae if you can give us context of interest). While Jim's super optimistic book has in many ways turned out to be under-optimistic sadly he died in a boating accident. If anyone's an alumni of Asia Rising we love to be contacted chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk - and I will be making as many lins as I can to the references of what was explorable in 1995. Asia's development was then and is now the best news anyone can have the privilege of diarising.

    Join us in exploring economics: designed to invest in next generation's livelihoods starting with ending being born into poverty- and voicelessness over the future's possibilities.

    Asia explorations have helped us map this more than anywhere else including:
    *Japan since 1962 with father and The Economist
    China with The Economist Asia Team since 1972
    Bangladesh village networks since 2005 eg grameen.tv and brac.tv
    Pre-war Korea with my uncle once removed
    Gandhi's Inidian
    Independence wit my maternal granfater 1921-1946
    With Asia's and Africa's elearning satellite yazmi since 2014
    With youth-valuation emerging open society views - eg Soros, Gorbachev, Nobel Peace, Preferential Option Poor since 1984
    With womens empowerment valuation networks since 2012
