AI Product & Feature Updates

1. Mobvoi’s founder and CEO, Li Zhifei, just launched their brand-new AI hardware product, the TicNote, in Beijing! 💡✨ This gadget is only 3mm thin and magnetically attaches to your phone. It’s powered by Shadow AI tech, which uses large language models like DeepSeek-R1, and boasts super handy features like AI transcription and summarization. Li Zhifei also spilled the beans that the company plans to steer clear of direct competition with tech giants. Instead, they’ll be rolling out more smart hardware embedded with Shadow AI to carve out their own unique niche. He really stressed that combining hardware and software is the way forward for the company!
   
   
2. ElevenLabs 🎙️🎶 just dropped their next-gen voice generation wizardry, Voice Design v3! 🚀 This tool is seriously amazing! Users just need to type in a text prompt, and boom – they can create high-quality, super expressive custom voices. Plus, it supports over 70 languages and hundreds of local accents! It gives you super fine-tuned control over voice personality and rhythm. It’s already open to all users, and honestly, it’s a total treasure trove for creative and commercial uses! Go give it a whirl online: ‘ElevenLabs Voice Design’.
   
   
   
   
   
   

AI Frontier Research

1. MMSearch-R1 🔬🔍 is a groundbreaking end-to-end reinforcement learning framework that lets Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) 🧠 perform multi-round searches in real-world internet environments, on demand. It cleverly integrates image and text search tools to solve problems super efficiently! This model really shines in knowledge-intensive and information-seeking VQA tasks. Not only does it outperform similarly sized Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) baseline models, but it can even match the performance of larger RAG models while using over 30% fewer search calls. How cool is that?! ✨ ‘Paper Link’

AI Industry Outlook & Social Impact

1. AI security company XBOW 🛡️💥 just made history! With their self-developed AI tool, “XBOW,” they’ve beaten human researchers for the first time, snagging the #1 spot on the US leaderboard of HackerOne, a globally renowned vulnerability crowdsourcing platform! This is a massive breakthrough for AI in the vulnerability detection space! 👏 This fully automated penetration testing system has already submitted nearly 1060 vulnerabilities on HackerOne and successfully raked in $75 million in Series B funding 💰. This totally signals that AI is about to completely reshape the cybersecurity landscape, speeding up vulnerability discovery and fixes.
   
   
   
   
2. Recently, ByteDance’s Seed team put five mainstream large models, including Doubao Seed 1.6-Thinking and Gemini 2.5 Pro, to the test 🎓✨. They crushed it in the 2025 Shandong Gaokao (National College Entrance Exam) full-subject closed-book assessment. Doubao snagged first place for liberal arts (683 points), while Gemini took the crown for science (655 points). Overall, their scores are good enough to aim for top-tier universities like Tsinghua and Peking University, and at least guarantee a spot in a 985-level university! In just one year, the large models’ Gaokao scores jumped by over a hundred points, showcasing their powerful textual understanding, multimodal comprehension, and reasoning abilities! 🚀 This shows that the Gaokao is no longer a challenge for testing their ‘intelligence.’ Moving forward, they should dive deeper into areas like scientific research and artistic creation. The sky’s the limit! 🎨 ‘More Details’

Social Media Shares

1. Simon’s Daydream shared a killer article pointing out that AI Agents 🤖🤝 have evolved into the multi-agent collaboration phase. The article highlights that the trend is towards more encapsulated models, enhanced functionality, increased flexibility, and standardized protocols, ultimately leading to multi-Agent cooperation. The article breaks down the three-stage evolution of AI Agents, MCP, and A2A protocols in detail. It really emphasizes the core role humans play in multi-Agent systems and even provides a guide for building complex Agent systems through Golang engineering practices 💡. ‘Read More’
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Blogger Simon’s Daydream shared some exciting news about the open-source multimodal generative model, OmniGen2 🎨✨! This model boasts “Any-to-Any” full-process capabilities like text-to-image generation, image editing, image understanding, and multi-image blending. What’s more, it even runs on low-VRAM devices! The blogger was blown away🤯 by how quickly it reached about 70% of GPT-4o’s “edit images by talking” level. Seriously, the future looks bright for this one! ‘Read More’
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Blogger ‘Tu Si Ji Da Lao Ye’ excitedly introduced the Xiaomi AI Glasses 🕶️💡! These glasses are seriously a blend of tech and style, packing a first-person camera, open-ear headphones, and a portable AI gateway all into one. Even better, these glasses support super convenient features like encyclopedia Q&A and QR code payments.

4. Blogger Xiao Hu reported that Microsoft ⚔️ hinted they’re ditching talks with OpenAI about OpenAI becoming a for-profit company and going public. The reason behind it? Both sides couldn’t agree on the terms 🤔. OpenAI wanted to end Microsoft’s current rights to model intellectual property and their 20% revenue share, but Microsoft wasn’t on board with their new offer. There are even whispers that this might lead OpenAI to pull the “nuclear option”💥 of accusing them of anti-competitive behavior. ‘More Details’
   
   
   
   
5. Meng Shao shared Andrej Karpathy’s insightful take, pointing out that when it comes to AI applications, we should totally be focusing on “context engineering” 🧠💡 rather than just plain “prompt engineering.” That’s because “context engineering” involves carefully designing information windows, optimizing information density, and content structure – way more complex than just typing in a few prompts! ✨ Plus, Karpathy debunked the misconception that AI applications are just “ChatGPT wrappers.” He stressed that actual development covers a whole bunch of complex steps like problem decomposition, model selection, UI management, and security protection. Seriously, it’s no joke! 💪 ‘More Details’
6. Blogger wwwgoubuli predicts that AI is ushering in an era of “fact-generating lightweight applications” 🔮🚀. Soon, users will truly be able to “speak it into existence,” instantly creating and destroying all sorts of apps. Meanwhile, the marketing and promotion value of traditional large software will drop significantly. He believes this is all thanks to the widespread adoption of high-speed inference technology and breakthrough experiences from models like Google Gemini. He predicts that in the future, AI will become infrastructure like water, electricity, and gas, but many applications themselves will become invisible and valueless. It might even lead to a monopoly on the “gateway to a magical world” 🌌. ‘More Details’
