This strong statement highlights the growing recognition of AI as a critical component for global economic and technological advancement.<\/p>\n<p>Further elaborating on the global AI landscape, Huang specifically praised the quality of AI models developed in China. He noted that models from companies like DeepSeek, Alibaba (<a href=\"\/stock\/BABA\">BABA<\/a>), and Tencent (<a href=\"\/stock\/TCEHY\">TCEHY<\/a>) are of <em>world-class quality<\/em>. This acknowledgment from a leading figure in the AI industry signals the significant progress and innovation emanating from the Chinese tech sector.<\/p>\n<p>According to Huang, AI is not just a theoretical concept but a practical driver for major Chinese platforms. Companies such as Tencent (<a href=\"\/stock\/TCEHY\">TCEHY<\/a>) are leveraging AI to power their operations and enhance their services, indicating the deep integration of AI into their core business strategies. This trend suggests a continued reliance on AI for competitive advantage in the digital economy.<\/p>\n<p>In separate economic news, New Zealand&#39;s non-resident bond holdings for June experienced an astonishing increase. The holdings surged dramatically to <strong>622.7%<\/strong>, a substantial jump from the previous figure of <strong>61.9%<\/strong>.

Such a substantial change could have various implications for the New Zealand dollar, interest rates, and overall financial stability, warranting close observation by market analysts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways Nvidia&#39;s (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang has emphatically stated that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now an indispensable
