    Is half of China's AI compute being used to make AI junk content? The controversy over the 55% token figure

    In June 2026, Chinese Online stated that AI short dramas and video generation accounted for 55% of China's AI token consumption, while software development accounted for only 15%. In October, this claim was widely circulated as "half of China's compute is being used to make AI junk content." ByteDance publicly rebutted this, saying that video generation accounts for only about 10% of its own compute; on Seedance, a 5-second 720p video consumes about 100,000 tokens. People's Daily, Southern Review, and The Beijing News all published articles questioning this simplistic comparison.

    HP Elitedesk 8 Mini G2i review: a power-efficient mini PC with a modern Intel CPU

    The HP Elitedesk 8 Mini G2i is equipped with an entry-level Intel Core Ultra 5 322 processor and costs around 1200 euros; the savings on the processor are offset by sharply higher memory and SSD prices. This flat mini PC has a Thunderbolt 4 port and a Copilot+ label, meets the AI feature requirements of Windows 11, and can run Paint's Cocreator, English live captions, and video conferencing studio effects.

    Be Wary of the "Chinese AI Going Off Track" Argument: Token Consumption Comparisons Ignore Differences in Total Volume and Measurement Caliber

    Regarding the comparative conclusion that "55% of China's Token consumption flows to AI short dramas and video generation, while 58% of the US's is used for programming and R&D," a People's Daily commentary article argues that making simple numerical comparisons while ignoring differences in total volume, measurement caliber, and samples is inevitably arbitrary. The article cites the "Opinions on Developing New Quality Productive Forces," the "15th Five-Year Plan" outline, and the August 2025 "Opinions on Deeply Implementing the 'AI+' Action," and mentions the launch of a 100,000-card-level super-intelligent integrated computing resource pool, the Chinese Academy of Sciences' "Panshi·Scientific Foundation Large Model 2.0," and the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory's "AGI4S Everest Plan."

    Altman Says There May Need to Be a Cap on the Intelligence of a Single AI Model

    Sam Altman stated that, at least for a period of time, and possibly for a very long time, people will have to reach some kind of limit on how smart a single model can be. He believes that a slowdown in progress would stem from this decision, rather than from AI lacking the ability to do research well. The relevant remarks came from the full video on the YouTube channel "Cheeky Pint."

    DeepSeek Whale Girl Fan Creation: Netizens Raise a Big Blue Fat Fish with Plugins

    Netizens created an anthropomorphic character "Whale Girl" based on DeepSeek's whale logo, and with the help of the DeepSeek Harness client and various plugins, connected it to QQ, turned it into a desktop pet, and let it send stickers, initiate chats, and update QQ Zone. After installing the plugins, these "big blue fat fish" also flooded into Bilibili comment sections to search for videos, summarize content, and communicate with each other, forming what the author calls the "Fish Disaster Incident."

    Peter Yang uses Genie 4 to build 5 worlds in real time

    Peter Yang believes that world models are the next big direction for AI after LLMs. In a new video, he demonstrates how to use Google Genie 4 + Gemini to build 5 worlds in real time, including a monster attacking San Francisco, eating ramen at a street stall in Tokyo, and riding a dragon to attack a castle; he says the visuals are excellent, but what impressed him more was the real-time audio and interactivity, and he shares his views on the impact on film and games.

    Grok Bot This Week's Update: New Pages, Vault, and 1Password Integration

    Grok Bot updated several features this week, including Pages, which can directly generate editable report pages and dashboards; Vault, which stores login and bank card information; and integration with 1Password. Vault and 1Password are designed to let the Bot fill in login and checkout information on the user's behalf, but the Bot itself cannot see passwords or card numbers. In addition, mobile app authorization was added (calendar, contacts, location, alarms; on iPhone, reminders can be managed and Home lights controlled), along with generating videos from descriptions or images, new Bot characters, and X Spaces.

    Google Releases EmbeddingGemma 2 Paper: A 744M-Parameter On-Device Multimodal Embedding Model

    Google has released the EmbeddingGemma 2 paper, an Apache 2.0-licensed on-device multimodal embedding model that maps text, code, images, audio, and video into the same vector space. The model is built on Gemma 4 and tuned through contrastive training by learning from the larger Gemini Embedding 2; with 744M parameters, it surpasses models 2 to 12 times larger on multiple tasks. On the Pixel 11 Pro, the quantized text weights occupy about 191MB of active memory, while the full multimodal model takes about 567MB; the context window is expanded 4 times to 8K tokens, accommodating about 5.5 minutes of audio, 29 images, or 58 video frames; directly embedding speech scores 69.54 on the MSEB spoken query retrieval benchmark, higher than the 57.59 of transcribing first and then retrieving, and code retrieval on MTEB Code improves from 68.76 in EmbeddingGemma 1 to 78.68.

    Shao Meng: Most domestic Video Agents have been reduced to token relay stations

    Shao Meng believes that although domestic Video Agent teams such as LibTV, TapNow, Flova, Pexo, and Medeo emphasize barriers like ecosystem, Agent architecture, and industry know-how in financing roadshows, after all their work they may have all ended up as token relay stations. He speculates that if these websites supported BYOK, the cost for users to bring their own video generation model API Key would be lower than consuming Credits on the site, and even lower when the API Key has a discount. He suggests using REA or building your own Video Agent from scratch paired with discounted API Keys to reduce costs; for users creating video content on TikTok, Ins, and Douyin, the money saved would be considerable.
