A surge in popularity of Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) app DeepSeek has sparked a selloff of shares in major tech companies after it overtook rivals such as ChatGPT to become the top-rated free app on Apple's App Store.

Nvidia, Microsoft and Meta were set to open down on Monday and the development knocked European share prices.

The app has grown in popularity since its launch, challenging the widely held belief that the US is the unassailable leader in AI and prompting questions about the scale of investments US firms are planning.

It is powered by the open-source DeepSeek-V3 model, which its researchers claim was developed for less than $6m - significantly less than the billions spent by rivals. 

Just a thought.

Research suggests that the low cancer prevalence in Mediterranean populations may be due to the high consumption of olive oil, Plant-Based Foods, and fish. A review of studies linked high olive oil intake with a reduced risk of several types of cancer, including:

• Any type of cancer: 31% lower risk
• Gastrointestinal cancer: 23% lower risk
• Breast cancer: 33% lower risk
• Urinary tract cancer: 54% lower risk
• Upper aerodigestive cancer (lung, head, and neck): 26% lower risk

The antioxidant-rich phenolic compounds in olive oil, including hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein, protect cells from damage from free radicals.

Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) has arrested two illegal migrants who the agency says were running a drugs and narcotics operation in Maryland and Georgia.

Officials say they busted the two migrants on Thursday, just one day after prosecutors in Queens indicted 10 Tren de Aragua gang members and their associates for similar operations in New York City.

The agency also posted images of the arsenal of guns and ammunition they seized as part of their operation. They said they seized more than 30 weapons.

Framed by the Defence IQ International Armored Vehicles conference, which took place between January 21 and 23, the British Army announced that it is evaluating the possibility of equipping its Challenger 2 tanks with anti-drone cages based on experience gained from the war in Ukraine. 

Additionally, possible alternatives were presented to equip British armored vehicles with new active protection systems against drones, including electronic countermeasures and kinetic interceptors.

As previously mentioned, exploring such alternatives is mainly due to lessons learned from the war in Ukraine, where drones have undoubtedly become a frequent threat to tanks.

In October 2020. Biden had secured the Democratic nomination and maintained a narrower lead in the polls against then-incumbent President Trump. 

The New York Post published its bombshell report on Hunter Biden's laptop, offering unprecedented insight into his overseas finances and their potential ties to his father.

"I was covering Biden at the time, and I remember coming to my editor and saying, ‘Hey, we need to write about the Hunter Biden laptop.’ And I was told this came from on high at Politico: Don’t write about the laptop, don’t talk about the laptop, don’t tweet about the laptop," Caputo said.  Just a thought.

President Donald Trump said there were no survivors after last night’s midair collision between an American Airlines regional jet and a US Army Black Hawk helicopter in the Washington, DC, area — the deadliest since 2001. Trump also, without evidence, placed blame on Democratic policies.

Experts say both the pilots aboard American Airlines Flight 5342 and the military pilots in the Black Hawk would have been used to navigating the complex airspace.

Comment:

The military train their helicopter pilots right in the path of civilian airlines that is  landing one minute after another in a busy airport. 

Does this make any sense? 

All passengers on both aero planes are victims for no reasons whatsoever.
