DeepSeek's AI breakthrough to spur AI adoption, data centre infrastructure - Mah Sing


KUALA LUMPUR: The demand for both low-powered and high-powered chips in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems will lead to a significant increase in advanced data centre infrastructure, says Mah Sing Group Bhd.

Commenting on DeepSeek's recent launch of its AI model using lower-powered chips, the group said this reflects growing demand for high-performance computing and AI adoption.

"This is a promising development for Mah Sing’s data centre venture," it said in a statement issued on Tuesday.

Mah Sing said land near energy hubs will become increasingly valuable.

Its Southville City development, with its strategic suitability as an AI hub, is ideally positioned to leverage this trend, it said.

It added that the Southville Data Centre, with its immediate access to reliable and higher capacity energy, offers a competitive edge in accelerating market deployment for its data centre partners.

"This, coupled with DeepSeek’s innovative approach, positions AI-driven data centres as the future backbone of the digital economy, ensuring they can meet the ever-growing demand for computing power and energy reliability in this transformative era."
