TechBrazil launches AI supercomputer push while balancing US and Chinese tech

Brazil will invest about 2.3 billion reais ($444.2m) to strengthen its AI ecosystem. The funding includes a Rio de Janeiro supercomputing project with China’s Huawei and iFlytek, plus a tender for another machine in Rio Grande do Norte that is expected to rank among the world’s 10 most powerful AI processors. Lula’s administration says the strategy avoids dependence on one company, technology or country and reinforces data sovereignty.
