NIO successfully taped out the world's first 5nm smart driving chip


At the NIO Innovation Technology Day event on July 27, NIO announced the successful tape-out of the world’s first automotive-grade 5nm high-performance intelligent driving chip, the NIO Shenji NX9031. Both the chip and the underlying software were independently designed.

According to reports, the Shenji NX9031 chip has more than 50 billion transistors, adopts a 32-core CPU architecture, has a pixel processing capability of 6.5G Pixel/s, and a processing delay of less than 5ms. NIO said that in terms of comprehensive capabilities and execution efficiency, "one chip can achieve the performance of four industry flagship chips."

In addition to its self-developed smart driving chip, NIO also announced at the event the official full release of its vehicle-wide operating system, “SkyOS·Tianshu”. This is the first vehicle-wide operating system developed and mass-produced by a car company in China. It is said that the new system will connect the previously independent smart driving, smart cockpit, vehicle control and other systems from the bottom up.

NIO also brought the NWM (NIO World Model), which is known as "China's first intelligent driving world model." According to reports, NWM is a multivariate autoregressive generative embodied driving model that can fully understand data, has long-term deduction and decision-making capabilities, and can deduce 216 possible scenarios within 100 milliseconds.


AI company Anthropic's illegal crawler data grabbing caused dissatisfaction among multiple websites


The Verge reported that the web crawler used by AI startup Anthropic to crawl its AI training data attacked the repair website iFixit nearly 1 million times in 24 hours and violated the company's data use terms.

iFixit CEO Kyle Wiens said on the social platform X; "If any of these requests had accessed our terms of service, they would have told you that our content is explicitly prohibited."

Due to the high crawler crawling rate, Anthropic's crawler robot triggered all iFixit's alarms and activated iFixit's technical team.

iFixit has now added the "Robot Exclusion Protocol" robot.txt file to the extension of the crawler delay, after which Anthropic did stop crawling data.

This is not the first time that Anthropic has been reported for such violations. Free software document hosting platform Read the Docs and freelance platform Freelancer also stated in the above tweet that their websites had also been "actively" crawled by Anthropic's crawlers.

CITIC Securities responds to intern incident


Recently, a college student filmed a video during his study tour at CITIC Securities, which caused heated discussion in the society. CITIC Securities officially made a statement regarding this incident.

CITIC Securities said that the student was a freshman at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and his father was a non-public official who had never worked in a financial regulatory department. Upon investigation, it was found that the student was introduced to the company's research department by a team leader of the company's investment bank in violation of regulations. The company has dismissed the leader and will hold the head of the investment bank department accountable.

CICC also stated that the company will try its best to reduce the impact on customers regarding the company’s customer information involved in the video, and will conduct in-depth summary and reflection on the problems in internal management.

Last week, a video titled "A day in the life of a 985 freshman in an investment bank" went viral online. In the video, a male intern filmed a large number of scenes inside the company, leading to the leakage of confidential information within the company.

Huawei Cloud Space launches new service model, 5GB free space upgraded to basic data service


Huawei Cloud Space released an upgrade notice, stating that it will upgrade to a new cloud space service model.

According to the official introduction, the original 5GB of free space has been upgraded to basic service. The basic service has no limit on data size and does not occupy cloud storage space. It can store fixed system basic data such as contacts, memos, calendars, browsers, etc. for free; membership services occupy cloud storage space and require payment to store cloud galleries, cloud disk files, and third-party application backups (such as WeChat and QQ, etc.) in addition to basic services. At the same time, you can share space and rights with your family.

The official also stated that after upgrading the new cloud space mode, users will be provided with a trial experience of 200GB membership service, which can safely store all important data such as photos and files in the cloud space. After upgrading the new cloud space mode, rollback is not supported.

Currently, the new Huawei Cloud Space model is in the trial operation stage and will be gradually opened and upgraded.

Luo Yonghao talks about Dong Yuhui's independence: If you really can't stand these bad people, then you can only start your own business


Regarding the recent independence of Dong Yuhui and Yuhui Tongxing from Oriental Selection, Luo Yonghao posted on Weibo to express his views.

Regarding Yu Minhong's statement that he would give Dong Yuhui a gift of "Hui Xing Tong", Luo Yonghao believes that the essence of this matter is "Xiao Dong used the money he earned himself to buy back Xiao Dong's own company."

When talking about the issue of "Eastern Selection's ability to create stars", Luo Yonghao believes that New Oriental "does not have the ability to create stars" and said that it is impossible for a top anchor like Dong Yuhui to be "cultivated".

Luo Yonghao said that this matter "has reached such a ridiculous point today", whether it is to the public or employees, whether it is to the fund or shareholders, Yu Minhong "should bear full responsibility".

Regarding the conflict of interest between big anchors and institutions, Luo Yonghao believes that a better solution is to refer to the case of Li Jiaqi and his institution Meiwan, and continue to add shares to the big anchor until he becomes the second largest shareholder or the largest shareholder.

President of SERES Automotive talks about cooperation with Huawei: The core is mutual recognition and acknowledgement of each other's value


At the annual meeting of China's Future Stars, He Liyang, President of SERES Automotive, delivered a speech and talked about the AITO Automobile in cooperation with Huawei.

Talking about the cooperation with Huawei, He Liyang said that the core of the cooperation between SERES and Huawei is that they must recognize and acknowledge each other's value, must believe in the common values ​​and concepts of the future, and at the same time be able to persist in and firmly carry out all-in cooperation in actual operations in order to carry out systematic reconstruction.

Li Bin of NIO: We will never make Robotaxi


After the NIO IN event, NIO CEO Li Bin accepted an interview with the media and talked about his views on Robotaxi (driverless taxis).

Li Bin said that NIO "will never make Robotaxi" because the value of intelligent driving is not to "eliminate" the jobs of private car drivers, but to free up energy and reduce accidents. Li Bin believes that Robotaxi is not inspiring at all, nor is it a big business.

Li Bin believes that transportation is a social issue, not a purely technical issue. Even if Robotaxi technology matures, it will not be a sustainable business. This is because if the demand for cars is to be met, a large number of cars are needed, and the number of cars a city can accommodate is limited.


It is reported that the iOS 18.1 beta with Apple's smart features will be launched as early as this week


Technology reporter Mark Gurman reported that Apple will not bring the official version of Apple intelligence at the same time as iOS 18, iPadOS 18 and macOS 15 are officially released. The relevant features will come in October with the first major updates of these systems, namely iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1 and macOS 15.1. It is reported that the purpose of doing so is to have more time to enhance the stability of related functions.

Gurman also reported that iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 betas with Apple's smarts are expected to be released this week, although it is rare for a major update beta to be pushed before the first official version is released. He also said that even if Apple's smarts are released with versions such as iOS 18.1, some features will still be missing, such as the new Siri, which is expected to be launched in the first half of next year.

Gurman also pointed out that this update strategy may result in the iPhone 16 series not being pre-installed with Apple smartphones when it is first launched, but will need to be obtained through updates a few weeks after its release.
