New Zealand government put on the ‘hotspot’

Press Release: Greenpeace New Zealand

Greenpeace will put the New Zealand government on the ‘hotspot’ from 9am on Monday, October 2.

Greenpeace is targeting the nation’s decision makers with a high- profile, colourful activity outside the Beehive to encourage them to strengthen New Zealand’s position during an up-coming international convention that will have profound impacts on the future health and well-being of New Zealanders and the rest of the world.

An interactive site on Greenpeace New Zealand’s website (www.greenpeace.org.nz) will go live during the morning. The issue will be kept live nationally by an eight-centre nationwide tour.

More details will be released once activists are on-site.

Gordon Campbell: DeepSeek, And China’s Inexorable Rise

The week’s big story has been about China’s DeepSeek low-cost AI model. Because DeepSeek requires fewer advanced chips, its advent has had a huge impact on the fortunes of US chip-making giant, Nvidia – which immediately lost $600 billion of its value, making that the biggest one day loss in the history of the US stock market. Nvidia has since clawed back 5% of its prior value. Still, the advent of DeepSeek as a low cost market disruptor has been described by venture capitalist Mark Andreessen as “AI’s Sputnik moment” and if you don’t know what that means, ask your grandparents.
