Quick Glance: Biden signs Comprehensive Military Aid Package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan

President Biden announces the signing of a substantial $95 billion military assistance package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, with a significant portion of the funds directed towards Ukraine.

Despite initial resistance from Republicans in Congress, Biden has signed the aid package, highlighting the reinforcement of allies and ensuring prompt deliveries to Ukraine.

The assistance for Ukraine includes weapons and military equipment valued at around $1 billion, encompassing artillery shells and air defense missiles.

Military analysts do not foresee significant changes on the frontlines in eastern Ukraine, while the US support aims to aid Ukraine in operations in southern Ukraine, particularly focusing on Crimea and the Black Sea.

Chinese hackers are constantly targeting critical infrastructure in the U.S., FBI Director says

qz.com/china-hacking-fbi-christopher-wray-panic-volt-typhoon-1851425289

Quick Glance: Cyber Threats from China Targeting US Critical Infrastructure

According to FBI Director Christopher Wray, Chinese hackers are continuously seeking to infiltrate the computer systems of U.S. water treatment facilities and energy grids to induce panic.

Wray claimed that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has allocated significant resources to an offensive cyber program that surpasses those of all other major nations combined.

Wray primarily focused on the China threat concerning critical infrastructure but was also questioned about TikTok, the social media platform facing potential banning in the U.S. if ByteDance does not comply.

The FBI director emphasizes that the threat is not merely a long-term concern anymore but could materialize by 2027, as indicated by a recent assessment from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence suggesting a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan before the decade ends.

Quick Glance: TSMC Forecasts Q2 Growth Due to 'Insatiable' AI Demand

TSMC, the world's largest chipmaker, forecasts a potential up to 30% increase in sales in the second quarter, driven by strong demand for semiconductors used in artificial intelligence (AI).

The CEO of TSMC emphasized the insatiable demand for energy-efficient computing power for AI applications, stating that almost all AI innovators are collaborating with the company.

Benefiting from the AI wave, TSMC expects revenue from AI servers to surpass 20% by 2028. The company anticipates that strong demand for its 3nm and 5nm technologies will support business in the second quarter of 2024.

Forecasts for 2024 indicate TSMC's positive outlook, with expectations of revenue rising in the low- to mid-20% range. Despite sluggish smartphone demand, the company remains optimistic about the future due to the ongoing demand for advanced chip technologies.
