    Du Xiaoman and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Jointly Release Xuanyuan 4.5 Financial-Enhanced Large Model

    Du Xiaoman, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and the Hong Kong Generative AI Research and Development Center (HKGAI) jointly released the Xuanyuan 4.5 financial-enhanced large model at the opening ceremony of the 2026 Hong Kong FinTech Week. Based on RSI technology, it improves effectiveness by 30% in core financial scenarios such as customer acquisition, risk control, and customer management, while costing only 10% of a general-purpose model. The model consists of two parts: a large language model and a multimodal model. The self-developed Xuanyuan-Machine participates in agent data synthesis, supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, and other stages, and has built more than 100 billion tokens of scenario-enhanced data. Based on Xuanyuan, Du Xiaoman has built over a thousand agents and more than 5,000 skills, with average daily token usage exceeding 100 billion, and has shortened the iteration cycle of risk strategies in its credit business by more than half.

    Meituan Releases LongCat-2.5 Large Model, 1.6 Trillion Parameters Trained Entirely on Domestic Compute

    Meituan has released its next-generation large model LongCat-2.5, a natively multimodal model designed for long-horizon agent tasks, with 1.6 trillion total parameters, trained entirely on domestic compute. During the mid-training stage, the model conducted long-context training with sequences of up to 1M tokens, with cumulative training volume reaching trillions of tokens, and it optimized task division around supernodes to address the challenge of small per-card memory in domestic compute. Meituan says its results on multiple mainstream benchmarks fall between Claude-Opus-4.8 and Claude-Opus-5, and it surpasses Claude-Opus-5 on some evaluations.

    Meituan LongCat releases LongCat-2.5 native multimodal model, 1.6T parameters targeting long-horizon agent tasks

    Meituan LongCat releases the native multimodal model LongCat-2.5, with a total parameter count of 1.6 trillion and approximately 48 billion parameters activated per token, strengthening native visual understanding and agentic coding capabilities on the basis of LongCat-2.0. The model incorporates more long-horizon trajectory data into long-sequence training, and through large-scale long-horizon reinforcement learning enhances end-to-end engineering capabilities such as complex codebase development and complete project construction, while representing visual signals as multi-level discrete tokens to uniformly process visual and textual inputs. The official statement says it has optimized long-context training and W4A4 inference on domestic compute, and it will soon be available on GitHub and HuggingFace.

    DeepSeek V4.1 Flash-1017 Released with Public Pareto Frontier Curve

    DeepSeek launched a new version of its large model, V4.1 Flash-1017, and for the first time independently published a performance-versus-cost Pareto frontier curve, claiming that the comprehensive cost per unit task is only one-hundredth to one-twentieth that of comparable models such as Fable and Astra. In the DeepSWE v1.1 evaluation, the new version's highest pass rate Pass@1 reached 77.0%, compared with about 74% for the previous version, with the highest score occurring at an average cost of about 1.3 yuan per task. The public API pricing remains unchanged this time; the cost benefits come from token efficiency optimizations such as task-aware compression, dynamic context trimming, and adaptive decoding, with actual measurements showing token usage in most scenarios dropping by more than 50% compared with the previous version. The article also points out that the curve was drawn by the vendor itself, and that the task set, the evaluation framework DeepSeek Harness, and the inference-tier rules are all internally defined, so whether cross-model comparisons can be reproduced remains to be verified.
