attended by bosses from other large chipmakers, including intel and amd. with the ai chip race heating up, companies are racing to catch up with nvidia, which is the leading manufacturer of the advanced technology. that's according to industry expert bob o'donnell. this is the most exciting computex show in a very long time. it's the first time i've been back in almost 15 years, because i feel it's such a big deal. and forjensen, he's the rock star — he's literally on a stadium tour, all his last speeches have been in stadiums like a rock star. there was a lot of excitement there, and he's got the big vision story to tell, because he is indeed the figurehead leading the industry at this point. and his idea is, "look, companies are now starting to leverage ai across all kinds of applications, and there's enormous opportunities." now he acknowledges — because his favourite line is, "the more you buy, the more you save" — he says it's ceo maths, so it's correct, but it's not accurate. that's the gist of the story he's trying to tell because that's a huge investment. that's the question people have — right now people are spending a lot of money, and the question is, when will be some of that pay back, and how does that work out? whatjensen was describing i think will absolutley happen, the question is the pace at which it happens — and again, as you hinted at, what about these other competitors and how do they impact nvidia themselves? so elaborate on the competitors, then, will have more on that computex info in a bit. the prime minister of lithuania has told me that the country faced "coercion" from china after allowing taiwan to open a de facto embassy. lithuania has deepened ties with taiwan in recent years, including in the semiconductor space, where taiwan is helping lithuania develop its chip manufacturing industry. i spoke to prime minister ingrida simonyte when she visited singapore recently. she told me how lithuania responded to beijing, and where relations stand with the world's second largest economy. the best answer was, first and foremost, to look for our partnerships, for our businesses. and i think this goes well, and then, also to speak about this on the international level from eu to wto. now there is an anti—coercion mechanism that has been elaborated at european level. and i think european policy — eu policy, vis a vis china, is becoming much more coherent than it was. tariffs that the us has imposed on china when it comes to ev and chips, and tech — do you see that having any impact on what it is you're trying to do? the world is shifting to a reality that is quite different from what we were believing some 20—30 years ago, when there was a very strong belief of reduction of tariffs, globalisation, international trade and, yes, in theory, or by david ricardo, we all know that this makes everybody richer. but what is less pleasant in this equation is that it works. i think only when countries are on the same ground when it comes to democracy, human rights, independent courts, freedom of speech, free elections, and so that you more or less know what to expect from the other, because the other is quite similar to you. take russia's export of gas to european union — it was, i would say, a plan to have the region basically hooked on energy supplies. and then, at the worst point, it becomes your problem, like it was in 2022 when the taps were being closed and there was a huge challenge for europe. shall we blink and say, "we give up, we don't care about ukraine any more?" or shall we rearrange our energy supplies at a very high cost? so we need to be mindful that not all the countries are like—minded. and unfortunately, we need to arrange our relations so that we take into account the security challenges, because they might be striking us at a very bad moment. as being the smaller country in that with these much bigger powers, how do you navigate that? for us, for democracies, it's important to become resilient. it doesn't mean that we won't trade, it doesn't mean we won't have interaction, but it means that we should also be resilient in those processes, not taking too high risks that might become our problem, or we will have to make choices that we do not want to make. india's capital new delhi is facing a water crisis. we are covering this story, she joins me now. get us up to speed with the latest. me now. get us up to speed with the latest-— the latest. the son has been relentless — the latest. the son has been relentless here _ the latest. the son has been relentless here in _ the latest. the son has been relentless here in the - the latest. the son has been relentless here in the capital city, and the water crisis has worsened over the last few days. the government is supplying water through tankers in many parts, and there are videos and images of hundreds of people chasing those tankers with buckets that they are scrambling to fill. the crisis has worsened because of the scorching heat — the summer heat has been the cruellest, temperatures of gone up over 50% in many parts, and the water supply — the needs of the water supply — the needs of the water for people have almost doubled, which has led to this shortage in the city of delhi. the government has rationed water supply in many parts, there are fines for water wastage, construction and commercial activities have been warned not to use potable water at all, and the delhi government has in fact written to the neighbouring states for water supply. to the neighbouring states for watersupply. remember, delhi water supply. remember, delhi does watersupply. remember, delhi does not have a source of water, they depend on neighbouring states for their water supply, and that water sharing between states has been a constant struggle over the last many years. it has been an issue, and in fact, the delhi government has reached out demanding that more water should be released by the state of haryana, but there is still a month to go in the summer heat before monsoons arrived in the capital city, and with the limited water supply, it'll be very difficult for the citizens in the coming days. it sounds incredibly _ in the coming days. it sounds incredibly tricky _ in the coming days. it sounds incredibly tricky for _ in the coming days. it sounds incredibly tricky for you, - in the coming days. it sounds incredibly tricky for you, i - incredibly tricky for you, i hope it cools for you soon. turning to the oil industry — members of the 0pec+ cartel have agreed to extend most of its production cuts to 2025. the cuts, which were first agreed in december, were due to expire at the end of this month. meanwhile, a private survey released in the coming hours harry murphy cruise, an economist with moody's analytics, gave us a sense of what lies ahead for oil prices. i suppose not an entirely surprising decision. we had expected some of these cuts to continue through to the end of the year. what we saw over the weekend was something that went a little bit further than that. but really, i think that reflects some of the uncertainty in oil demand at the moment. so, you know, you look around the world, we've got inflation that's digging in its heels in a number of countries. that really raises the prospect that interest rates stay higherfor longer — that would dent demand for oil. similarly, china's manufacturing led growth recovery is showing a little bit of shakiness in some areas. if that were to continue, that would also dent demand for oil. so look, i think we're really seeing that being reflected in opec's decision here. it doesn't change our view too much in the short term — we had those cuts baked in until the end of this year, 2025 is really where we expected to see oil prices come back down a little bit quicker. this mayjust be a little bit of a handbrake on that going forward. live pictures from computex, where the president of amd is currently speaking. he's speaking ahead of the expected address by the ceo, lisa hsu. amd is the main rival to nvidia in the areas of artificial intelligence chips, and as we mentioned, amd is looking to catch up with nvidia in the ai space. last month microsoft said it would offer its cloud customers a suite of amd chips as an alternative to offerings from nvidia. chinese fast—fashion giant shein is expected to confidentially file for a listing in london, according to media reports. the move, which was first reported by sky news, could take place in the coming days. the company is turning to the uk after facing opposition from lawmakers over plans to list in the united states, because of its ties to china. shein did not immediately respond to a bbc request for comment. we were telling you all about computex taking place in taiwan. the nvidia ball stated earlier that hundreds of trillions of dollars of business could be generated by the rise of ai. we'll have more on that i had. bye for now. —— nvidia boss stated earlier. hello, and welcome to sportsday — i'm karthi gnanasegaram. here are the day's headlines. sensational swiatek eases into the french open quarter finals, while sinner survives a scare in the men's draw. double delight for the co—hosts at the t20 cricket world cup, as both the west indies and the usa start with a win. and fenerbahce fever — jose mourinho is back in the dugout, and has a message of love for his new club. i promise you that from this moment, i belong to your family. this shirt is my skin. plenty to get through, but we start at the french open — where the quarterfinals are beginning to take shape, but it looks like it will take something special to take the women's title away from iga swiatek. the world number one remains on course for a third successive success at roland garros, after an emphatic fourth—round victory over anastasia potapova. swiatek took just a0 minutes to win, dropping only ten points in the match — in a 6—0 6—0 victory. swiatek will play the current wimbledon champion, marketa vondrousova, next. i was playing great in a really solid, efficient way. i didn't lose any points that i didn't need to, so i'm happy with the way i was disciplined, and ijust
