In a cement plant operated by Conch Group, an agentic AI system built on Huawei infrastructure now predicts the strength of clinker with over 90% accuracy and autonomously adjusts calcination parameters to cut coal consumption by 1%—decisions that previously required human expertise accumulated over decadesThis exemplifies how Huawei is developing agentic AI systems that move beyond simple command-response interactions toward platforms capable of independent planning, decision-making, and execution.Huawei’s approach to building these agentic AI systems centres on a comprehensive strategy spanning AI infrastructure, foundation models, specialised tools, and agent platforms. Zhang Yuxin, CTO of Huawei Cloud, outlined this framework at the recent…

Hunger is neither a natural condition of humankind nor an unavoidable tragedy: it is the result of choices made by governments and economic systems that have chosen to turn a blind eye to inequalities – or even of promoting them.The same global order that denies 673 million people access to adequate food also enables a privileged group of just 3,000 billionaires to hold 14.6 percent of global gross domestic product (GDP).In 2024, the wealthiest nations helped drive the largest surge in military spending since the end of the Cold War, reaching $2.7 trillion that year.
