64. Honor's $10 Billion AI Investment Plan

Honor, the Chinese smartphone manufacturer, plans to invest $10 billion in artificial intelligence development over the next five years. This investment aims to broaden their product line beyond smartphones to include AI-driven PCs, tablets, and wearable technology. 

The announcement coincides with Honor's preparations for an initial public offering and a surge in AI investment throughout China. Honor's move is also influenced by increasing competition in the Chinese smartphone market, where it has seen a slight decrease in market share. 

The company is receiving significant backing from the Shenzhen government to support its research and development endeavors as well as overseas expansion.
