 DeepSeek’s new AI is optimized for China’s next-gen chips

Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has released V3.1, a faster, leaner model designed to run on domestic chips. It’s not just an upgrade. It’s a geopolitical signal.

Here’s everything you need to know:

• The V3.1 model uses a new FP8 precision format to boost speed and cut memory use.

• It’s built to support next-gen Chinese chips though DeepSeek didn’t name which ones.

• The model features a hybrid mode: users can toggle between “reasoning” and “non-reasoning” tasks.

• DeepSeek claims this helps optimize resource use across different query types.

• The company is positioning itself as a low-cost, high-performance alternative to Western models.

• It’s also adjusting API pricing from September 6 to reflect the performance gains.

• The update follows multiple releases this year, as Beijing pushes for self-reliant AI infrastructure.

This isn’t just a technical upgrade, it’s part of China’s bigger AI strategy. DeepSeek is betting that if it can go toe-to-toe with OpenAI and run locally, it could become the go-to model in a post-export-restriction world.

Google’s AI Mode is starting to do things, not just answer questions

Google just rolled out a major upgrade to AI Mode in Search. The shift? Less like a search engine, more like a smart assistant.

Here’s everything you need to know:

• You can now ask Google to get things done like making dinner reservations.

• The AI juggles multiple preferences (time, cuisine, party size) and shows real-time options.

• It’s powered by Project Mariner, Google Maps, and partners like OpenTable and Ticketmaster.

• Personalized suggestions now factor in your past activity and preferences.

• You can share results with friends who can jump in and explore, too.

• It’s launching first in the U.S. for Google AI Ultra users, with global expansion to 180+ countries.

• This is the most “agentic” version of Search we’ve seen, built to act, not just inform.

Search is no longer just a place to find information, it’s becoming a place to delegate. If this sticks, Google won’t just help you discover answers. It’ll help you move through your day.:

This AI upgrade doesn’t spy on you and that’s the point

Proton just launched Lumo v1.1, a major upgrade to its AI assistant. The twist? It’s smarter and respects your privacy.

Here’s everything you need to know:

• Lumo now gives faster, more intelligent, and more accurate responses.

• Proton claims a 200% boost in reasoning and 170% in understanding context.

• Coding support improved too with 40% more accurate code generation.

• But the real headline: Lumo never logs, stores, or trains on your chats.

• Your conversations are encrypted, and even Proton can’t access them.

• To prove it, they’ve open-sourced the mobile app code.

• Lumo Plus offers unlimited use but the core experience is built on trust, not surveillance.

Lumo isn’t just another chatbot, it’s a challenge to how the AI industry works. Proton is betting that privacy will become a competitive edge. And honestly? That bet’s starting to look pretty smart.

Thanks for reading…

That’s a wrap.
