    Hands-on Test of GPT 6.1 Sol and Claude Sonnet 5.5: 3.5x Cost Difference Across Three Tasks

    Leiphone used Claude Code CLI to call GPT 6.1 Sol and Claude Sonnet 5.5 via OpenRouter, completing three tasks: 3D escape room development, policy investigation, and Nobel Prize chemistry popular science. The two have the same API list price ($2 per million input tokens, $10 per million output tokens), but their total costs were $38.5 and $10.9 respectively, a difference of about 3.5x. On speed, the advantage repeatedly flipped: for escape room development, Sol took 33 minutes 37 seconds and Sonnet took 74 minutes 32 seconds; for policy investigation, Sonnet took only 5 minutes 11 seconds while Sol took 54 minutes 50 seconds. The author believes the model determines the capability ceiling, while the toolchain, verification method, and stopping strategy are the core factors determining delivery quality and cost.

    Midea's 31st Science and Technology Month: Shifting from Parameter Rat Race to Originality Competition

    At its 31st Science and Technology Month, Midea proposed upgrading from homogeneous competition to originality competition. Chairman and President Fang Hongbo said that without investment in and accumulation of science and technology, Midea would not be what it is today. Award-winning projects this year include the Autofill refrigerator series, dual-engine three-dimensional surface acoustic wave heating that took five years to develop, and a heavy-duty RV reducer, the latter of which achieved a durability test life of 8,000 hours. Midea has cumulatively awarded more than 600 million yuan in scientific research rewards, and its global patent applications exceed 170,000.

    Who Is Cooperating with Trump's "Super Intelligence" Loyalty Test

    At the end of September, Trump signed an executive order requiring government agencies to rename "artificial intelligence" as "Super Intelligence." One month later, government tenders and websites have gradually switched to "SI," but the Pentagon's Project Meridian, the FTC, and HHS releases still use the old term. Among tech giants, only Zuckerberg and Musk have used the term relatively consistently on earnings calls, while executives at Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet still say "AI." Trump also criticized The Wall Street Journal for not adopting the new term and hinted that rules will be introduced to ban "artificial intelligence" in government documents.

    Ayi breaks down Lauren's retrospective on driving AI development of tibo dog with 6 engineering rules

    Ayi AI Notes broke down Lauren's publicly shared retrospective on AI-assisted programming: in 4 days she merged about 1,150 PRs and built tibo dog, a game that runs inside an X post, with a package size of about 124KB and 60 frames per second with 500 enemies on screen on a mid-range phone. The article lists 6 engineering rules, including turning every bug into a lint rule, using lint to ban comments, using the .hot.ts suffix to restrict per-frame code allocations, using TLA+ to verify state machines, synthesizing audio in real time in pure code, and using deterministic input replay to prevent cheating while tuning difficulty with headless bots. The author believes that the stricter the engineering rules are written, the higher the quality of AI delivery.

    trivia: • started working on the game as a side project 4 days ago, landing ~1,150 PRs • every time i found an issue in the code i asked bot to make a lint rule against it • used TLA+ heavily to find bugs in the game's various state machines: the story, cutscenes, the game's systems. there are many formal verification skills, one for each major system • i put context into the filepaths: code that runs every frame or every tick gets a .hot.ts extension, and a lint rule bans allocating in it (no object literals, closures, new, etc.), so the game loop creates almost no garbage and GC doesn't cause stutters • game engine is mostly custom. three.js draws the 3D scene, but the simulation, post-processing and audio are all ours • the simulation is fully deterministic, so every run replays exactly from its inputs. when you post a high score, the server replays your whole run to check it isn't cheated • we generate dynamic og:images for every run based on your final stats, and it's all localized too! the game supports 10 languages • my favorite feature: the music seamlessly transitions into different music for the various biomes, continuing the previous melody • no audio files. all the music and sound effects are synthesized live in the browser by a custom Game Boy-style chip (two pulse voices, a wave voice, noise) plus a synthwave layer. the songs are written as text in code • all the pixel art is code. every sprite is a file drawn with one shared palette and packed into a sprite atlas at build time • it runs inside an X post, from the 245px card up to full screen. the bar is 60 fps with 500 enemies on a mid-range phone • the build fails if the first download goes over budget. it's about 124 KB gzipped right now • bots play the game headless to tune each difficulty against target survival rates • comments are banned by a lint rule. if code needs explaining, the fix is a better name or a test

    NDRC's Wang Ruomeng responds to AI's employment impact, proposing monitoring and early-warning and social security linkage measures

    Wang Ruomeng, deputy director of the Department of Innovation and High-Tech Development at the National Development and Reform Commission, said at a press conference that the commission will closely monitor the impact of artificial intelligence on employment structure, promote the inclusion of new occupations such as model trainers and data annotators in the national occupational classification system, and strengthen monitoring and early warning of job displacement risks. The General Office of the State Council recently issued the Opinions on Adapting to the Development of Artificial Intelligence Technology to Help Build an Employment-Friendly Development Model, proposing to enhance the positive effect of AI in creating jobs and mitigate the impact of job displacement. Wang Ruomeng also mentioned that, in response to issues such as algorithmic discrimination, deepfakes, and privacy leaks, technical means will be used to enhance the ability to trace the sources of abusive behavior.

    White House National Economic Council Director Hassett responds to tech stock plunge: The AI industry has ample cash, and there is no risk of a broad sell-off

    White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett responded to the recent tech stock plunge, saying that this adjustment does not mean the AI industry faces the risk of a broad sell-off, that funds within the industry ecosystem remain ample, and that companies with strong financial strength can step in to acquire or provide funding support when enterprises run into trouble. He acknowledged that some companies carrying huge debts are worth watching, but believes that a market pullback after a strong rally is normal. The article also points out that AI industry financing is increasingly reliant on debt, with AI-related debt issuance expected to exceed $600 billion by 2026, about 10 times that of 2024, and that yields on some bonds and loans related to data centers and chip manufacturing have risen to double digits.

    Peking University's Sun Zhong, together with IBM and a Silicon Valley team, publishes a review of modern analog computing

    Sun Zhong of Peking University, together with IBM Zurich Research Laboratory and the Silicon Valley startup Unconventional AI, published a review in a Nature-affiliated journal focused on unconventional computing, giving a formal definition of modern analog computing. The paper distinguishes modern from traditional analog computing across three dimensions—tasks, hardware, and application feasibility—and distills three core primitives: solving differential equations, solving matrix equations, and matrix-vector multiplication. The paper mentions that AnalogCore's analog matrix computing solution achieves throughput approximately 1000 times that of a single core of NVIDIA's H100 and digital ASICs at equivalent FP32 precision, with energy efficiency approximately 100 times higher.

    Anthropic Updates Prospectus: Warns Next-Generation Model Nearing RSI Threshold

    Anthropic updated its prospectus and disclosed financial data for the third quarter of 2026, noting on page 29 that its next-generation model may be about to reach the "dramatic AI-driven acceleration in progress" threshold defined in the Responsible Scaling Policy, and stating that much of the evidence for measuring R&D acceleration is a lagging indicator. The prospectus also disclosed a compute procurement bill of $895.4 billion, with suppliers including Amazon, Google, SpaceX, and several compute rental upstarts. Estimated on an annualized revenue run-rate basis, Anthropic's monthly net new revenue fell from about $760 million in Q2 to about $580 million in Q3, a slowdown in growth.

    Yuchen Jin Discusses Three Predictions for MIT Weight-Space Programming

    Based on MIT's Weight-Space Programming work, Yuchen Jin offers three "bold" predictions: model weights will become a programming language that AI can understand but humans cannot; training and inference will merge, with AI continuously rewriting its own weights while thinking; and AIs will directly edit each other's weights, co-evolving without backpropagation, becoming a new path toward RSI.
