A | (ECNS) -- African developers are increasingly choosing Chinese AI models for their lower costs, relatively modest computing requirements and ability to be deployed and customized independently, The New York Times reported Wednesday. In Kenya, Uganda and other African countries, developers, policymakers and business executives told the newspaper that cost, computing resources, data control and localization often matter more than where an AI model was developed. In Uganda’s Mityana District, a coffee farmer uses Sunflower, a language model built on China’s open-source Qwen3, to communicate information about crop conditions and farm management. Some developers compared using Chinese open-source models to owning a house: they can download the models and build their own products on top of them, rather than continually paying for access to closed systems. The report also said Chinese companies have provided African developers with free computing credits and technical guidance, while broader China-Africa cooperation in telecommunications and infrastructure over the past two decades has helped lay the groundwork for the adoption of Chinese AI technologies. 
。 A Suo motu case has been registered against the management of Lulu Mall and the event organisers, a day after actress Nidhhi Agerwal was mobbed by a crowd during the launch of a song from her film The Raja Saab. The case was registered by the Kukatpally Housing Board (KPHB) police on Thursday, December 18, 2025.
KPHB Inspector S. Rajashekar Reddy said, "A case is being registered against the mall management and the event organisers for holding the programme without permission." Further investigation is underway.
Several photos and videos circulating on social media show the actress being jostled by an unruly crowd.
The incident took place on Wednesday evening as she was leaving the venue after attending the launch of the song Sahana Sahana in Hyderabad.

As Nidhhi exited the venue, she was mobbed by fans pushing forward to take selfies and photographs, creating a chaotic situation. Despite her bodyguard stepping in to assist, the actress appeared visibly uncomfortable as the crowd continued to press in.
Her personal security attempted to shield her and clear a path, but the situation remained difficult to control. After a struggle, she managed to get into her car but videos from the scene show Nidhhi looking visibly shaken and distressed. This incident has once again turned the spotlight on fans’ insensitive behaviour and invasion of personal space.
