TOKYO, July 19 (Reuters) - Japan needs to rapidly expand computing power as it vies to become a global leader in artificial intelligence, said Hideki Murai, a special AI adviser to Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. "The government's key priority is computing power. We feel a real sense of crisis about that," Murai, a ruling Liberal Democratic Party lawmaker who heads the government's AI strategy team, told Reuters in an interview on Tuesday. Japan, the world's third-largest economy, has been slow to invest in the field, and lags the United States in AI computer infrastructure. Some 3,000 companies in Japan have access to a supercomputer at the government's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) offering 0.8 exaflops of computing power.

If he could have scaled Mount Rainier to spread the message from on high, Rob Manfred surely would have. “What do they call it — a virtuous cycle, right?” Manfred said Tuesday afternoon, before the 93rd edition of the All-Star Game. “The rule changes are good, the players stay positive, it makes the fans even more positive about them because the players are positive about them. So it’s really been great for us.”On one point, though, Manfred acknowledged that baseball had simply caught a break. “The culmination of Ohtani and Trout, you can’t plan that.”

When Mike Trout or Shohei Ohtani hit home runs, they get a Samurai helmet placed on their head as they return to the Angels’ dugout. The San Diego Padres strike a cheesy pose with their conquering homer heroes and snap a dugout Polaroid. But when the Cleveland Guardians have a player go deep, the only thing that occurs is some good, old-fashioned cheering from the bench. “No, we don’t celebrate,” designated hitter Josh Bell said, referring to the elaborate and choreographed rituals practiced by more than a third of Major League Baseball teams. There’s no jacket.
