- Microsoft researchers introduced BitNet b1.58, a language model engineered specifically to minimize power consumption and memory footprint during operation, making it highly economical for various devices.
- This innovative system uses just 1.58 bits per parameter, drastically reducing computational resource requirements and improving response times, particularly on hardware with limited processing power.
- Despite its compact 0.4 GB size suitable for laptops, benchmark evaluations confirm BitNet performs competitively against significantly larger, less optimized artificial intelligence constructions available today.
🤔 OpenAI’s new reasoning AI models hallucinate more

|
- The recently released o3 and o4-mini reasoning models from OpenAI exhibit a higher tendency to produce fabricated content compared to older versions like o1 and GPT-4o.
- Company benchmarks indicate o3 invented facts in 33% of responses on a people-knowledge test, while o4-mini demonstrated inaccuracies nearly half the time in the same evaluation.
- Researchers admit they don't yet know precisely why scaling up reasoning capabilities leads to more untruthful outputs, highlighting it as an urgent area for ongoing investigation.
💥 Chipmakers fear they are ceding China’s AI market to Huawei

- New US government limitations block leading American companies like Nvidia from selling their most advanced artificial intelligence processors to the substantial and expanding Chinese market.
- This significant policy change compels American semiconductor firms to revise their plans, fueling concerns that Chinese technology leader Huawei will capture the surrendered AI chip sector.
- Analysts anticipate Huawei could exploit this opening, utilizing boosted domestic sales and collaborations to swiftly improve its processing unit capabilities and compete internationally with established firms.
🏃 China pits humanoid robots against humans in half-marathon
LINK
|
- For the first time, twenty-one humanoid machines joined human athletes in Beijing's Yizhuang half-marathon, competing side-by-side over the full 21-kilometer distance under real race conditions.
- The top-performing automaton, Tiangong Ultra, finished the course in 2 hours 40 minutes using specialized running algorithms, while other mechanical competitors faced difficulties requiring human assistance.
- Chinese firms showcased their bipedal robots in this public spectacle to highlight advancements, though experts debate the demonstration's relevance to practical industrial applications for these devices.
⏳ EU puts Apple fine on hold while US trade talks continue
LINK
|
- The European Commission reportedly postponed announcing regulatory actions against Apple and Meta, coinciding with high-level trade talks between EU officials and the United States government this week.
- This decision to delay the enforcement measures, which stem from the Digital Markets Act, has sparked worries among some Parliament members about political considerations influencing regulators.
- The probes examine Meta's paid ad-free option and Apple's rules preventing developers from directing users to alternative transaction methods outside the official App Store marketplace.
