Today's key points
Facewall Intelligence recently released the open source big model Eurux-8x22B, including Eurux-8x22B-NCA and Eurux-8x22B-KTO, which focuses on reasoning ability. The official said:
Compared with Llama3-70B, Eurux-8x22B was released earlier, with comparable comprehensive performance, especially stronger reasoning performance—— Refreshing the reasoning performance SOTA of the open source big model can be called the "science champion" of the open source big model.
Eurux-8x22B surpassed Llama3-70B in LeetCode (180 real LeetCode programming questions) and TheoremQA tests, and surpassed closed source GPT-3.5-Turbo in LeetCode tests.
Arc Browser is officially open to all Windows 11 users（ Only Windows 11 is supported, Support for Windows 10 is still under development). The Browser Company, the browser developer, started testing the Windows client in December last year, and now more than 150000 people are using it.
The biggest difference of Arc browser is that it introduces the concept of "Space" (similar to "Groups"). Users can create different "Spaces" to meet the browsing needs of different scenarios. The URL collection under each Space can be shared with others at one time.
Llama 3, the king of open source, has only... 8k in the original context window, which makes the words "really fragrant" swallow back.
At the beginning of 32k and the beginning of 100k, is it a deliberate space to make contributions to the open source community?
The open source community will certainly not miss this opportunity: now only 58 lines of code are needed, and any fine tuned version of Llama 370b can automatically extend to the 1048k (one million) context.

Utilize Apple Shortcuts An artificial intelligence assistant produced by Cloudflare Workers and llama 3.
Shortcuts provides automatic speech recognition (ASR), text to speech conversion (TTS) and HTTP request functions, which basically cover all the functions we need locally. You can also bind a shortcut to the iPhone action button, so that you can quickly access it even when the screen is locked.
Next, the author simply wrote a Cloudflare Worker, which receives the text from the shortcut, sends it to llama 3 for processing, and then returns the result of the function call.
Although this is only a basic example, it can be expanded to include more complex function calls and data storage.
Its response speed exceeds all AI wearable devices, and it does not require additional hardware or pay monthly fees.

I found that most of the skills I learned in my songs are as good as in my new job. Two of them are particularly useful:
If there is something that most people say they can't do, don't listen to the majority. When it's time to do it, do it.
Everything starts from the first principle and solves problems in essence.

The United States recently announced that it would restrict China's use of RISC-V architecture. Then Google, known for its "no evil", decided to remove the support for RISC-V from the Android operating system, closing this potential vulnerability. RISC-V architecture is widely regarded as the most valuable open source instruction set core in China. Many chip manufacturers have developed a variety of RISC-V based chip products, covering various fields from home appliance control to notebook computers. As the Android system no longer supports RISC-V, this may hinder the development of RISC-V.

One wave has not ended and another wave has arisen. Not only is APP criticized for its Android shell, but the main big action model LAM relies on OpenAI interface, and now the company is also pickpocketed——
Rabbit Company was originally engaged in Metauniverse, and changed its name to AI?!
This startup company, which used to focus on NFT games, transformed into an AI terminal (R1) last year. And after the transformation, it is suspected of "deleting the number and running away", leaving behind a bunch of users who paid for it.
You know, The GAMA, the predecessor of Rabbit, is a game that needs to pay in advance to purchase NFT. Some NFTs sell for up to 2000+US dollars (equivalent to more than 20000 yuan).
It was reminded that Rabbit also needed to pay in advance, so the netizen sent out a soul torture: if the CEO ran away again, What's the value of Rabbit R1?

Zhang Ying, director of Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology, said when attending the 2024 Shanghai People's Livelihood Interview Program that AI is one of the three leading industries in Shanghai's unswerving development, and is also the top priority of cultivating new quality productivity. At present, artificial intelligence is entering a period of concentrated explosion. In November last year, Shanghai released the "11 measures" to promote the innovative development of big models, making a comprehensive layout in terms of computing power, corpus, models, testing, etc. At present, 24 models of Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, such as "Scholar" and Shangtang "Discussion", have passed the national record, ranking second in the country, forming a "1+4" general model pattern (one open source, two commercial and two under research), which reflects the deepening application in the industry. This year, the general large-scale model is gradually converging, and a large number of vertical models focusing on manufacturing, finance, government affairs and so on are accelerating the breeding.

Event comments
Google Android system upstream - AOSP recently merge A series of patches removed the support of the Android general kernel for RISC-V architecture. The common Android kernel is also known as the AOSP common kernel or ACK.
Because ACK has removed the support for RISC-V, companies and organizations that want to immediately compile the Android RISC-V version, You need to create and maintain your own Linux branch To facilitate the further integration of RISC-V patches.
comment
RISC-V, as an open standard, has not been implemented in smart phone applications despite international support and cooperation. This decision of Google may have an impact on the application of RISC-V architecture in the smartphone field.
And many chip manufacturers and processor designers have invested in the future development of RISC-V architecture. For example, Qualcomm is developing RISC-V chips for Wear OS. Google's decision may have an impact on these chip manufacturers.
In addition, RISC-V architecture is regarded as a competition against ARM architecture. This decision of Google may also affect the competitiveness of RISC-V in the SSD controller market.
Kevin Scott, chief technology officer, Satya Nadella, chief executive officer, and Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft mail , revealing some high-level discussions around investment opportunities in the months before Microsoft disclosed the partnership.
Scott wrote in his email to Nadella and Gates on June 12, 2019: "In terms of machine learning scale, we are many years behind our competitors". It also described in detail how Microsoft engineers spent six months copying Google's BERT language model and training it, "because our infrastructure is not competent for this task".
comment
Microsoft's investment in OpenAI reflects its understanding of its relative backwardness in the field of artificial intelligence and its pursuit of technological leadership. This investment decision may be related to Microsoft's anxiety about Google's leadership in AI technology, highlighting the competition for market dominance.
Microsoft's investment in OpenAI and Google's leading position in the field of AI highlight the strategic importance of AI technology in today's technology industry. The cooperation and competition between large technology companies and how they balance these relationships are an important issue behind this event.
In addition, the Federal Trade Commission of the United States conducted a survey on the main participants in the generative AI market, which also showed the concern of regulators on market competition and investment cooperation. This event also reflects the profound impact that AI technology may have on the future social and business environment.
CCTV's Today Report recently reported the case of a post-90s programmer who earned more than 7 million yuan in less than a year by developing illegal video handling software and was finally sentenced.
A well-known short video platform in China reported that someone sold an illegal software on the network, and users of the software could bypass their platform's audit mechanism and directly steal other people's works for publication. The police in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, found that behind this is an industrial chain of crimes, The upstream of the criminal gang develops and manufactures illegal software to evade platform supervision by changing the code of the short video platform.
comment
This case emphasizes the importance of protecting intellectual property rights, especially today when digitalization and networking are increasingly popular. Although entrepreneurship is encouraged, it is important to choose legal and compliant projects; It emphasizes the moral responsibility of individuals in network security. Even behind seemingly harmless behaviors, there may be serious legal risks.
On the other hand, with the development of technology, the law may not keep up with the speed of technology application, resulting in the lack of legal supervision. It also reflects the importance of network supervision and platform security. The platform needs to strengthen technical measures to prevent such illegal acts.

Media opinion
Although AI search technology is very powerful and valuable, from the perspective of user experience, habits and enterprise resource allocation, it may be a more reasonable direction to take it as a feature of enhancing existing products rather than developing it as an independent search product. This is not only a better way to meet user needs, but also a better choice for enterprises.
seem, AI search is far from the Killer App in the era of generative AI, and it may not even be an ideal business. We don't need so many AI search products, but we need more AI search features.

Although AI start-ups are still struggling to make ends meet and explore their profit models, the boom in AI has made AI infrastructure suppliers who provide computing power and data make a lot of money. Observing the two main lines of Microsoft's AI investment, the ambition of this leader is also clear: on the one hand, through external investment or direct "merger" of AI start-ups, maintain their own advantages in generative AI technology; On the other hand, by vigorously laying out AI infrastructure, we will promote the cloud computing market and create a stronger performance growth curve.

User perspective
- Viewpoint 1: New comers are not cheap now. After several years of work, their salary is almost the same as that of the elderly
- Viewpoint 2: It would be better to dismiss the boss
- Viewpoint 3: Therefore, strictly implementing the eight hour working system can save the 35 year old crisis
- Viewpoint 4: Several front-line technicians from foreign enterprises were contacted in the project, and a project leader from a foreigner has been more than 60 years and is still in Coding. This is the gap.
- Viewpoint 5: If you don't work overtime, is the cost performance ratio of young people and middle-aged people about the same
- Viewpoint 6: You won't always be 18 years old, but someone will always be 18 years old
- Viewpoint 7: It is not just a programmer, IT industry is like this
- Viewpoint 8: Young people are aggressive. Let them rush first and solve problems. We old lights come out to wipe our bottoms. Young people get a chance to exercise. Old lights keep their jobs and kill two birds with one stone. How nice
- Viewpoint 9: Ha, in an environment with a low birth rate, the desire for a younger workforce is itself a conflict. Moreover, the work can only be completed by working overtime. Either the ability is not good or the company is not good
- Viewpoint 10:35 It's too old to go to work and too early to retire at 60
- Viewpoint 1: The former engineer of Microsoft said that the performance of Windows 11 was laughable. No wonder the market share continued to decline, so he is now a former engineer of Microsoft.
- Viewpoint 2: The only problem with Microsoft is that it has no taste, no taste at all
- Viewpoint 3: Resource management is often stuck, and open software is often stuck
- Viewpoint 4: Linux cannot create such graphical interface
- Viewpoint 5: Use Win11 to let more users use Win10
- Viewpoint 6: I also think it's ridiculous. At first, I thought it was my mouse
- Viewpoint 7: Microsoft focuses on cloud computing and artificial intelligence.
- Viewpoint 8: Win 10 or 11. There is one thing that I don't understand. Why does it take longer from boot up to desktop entry? After pressing the power on button, the light of the hard disk is almost always on. I feel that the computer has struggled to enter the desktop. Even if you enter the desktop, the hard disk will work crazily for some time before it stops. Is there so much to do in the boot process? I use the general ssd.
- Viewpoint 9: The law that one version of Windows is good and another version is bad has not been broken
- Viewpoint 10: Now the new machine Yishui is pre installed with Win11. How does the share of Win10 increase? Are there a large number of systems being degraded? It's just a matter of statistics.
- Viewpoint 1: Luban No.7 has no technical content but saved many people. 1.0 Replace the cache video to be released. The last update of the Dusk version of the gods is to replace the video template. At that time, it was the era of live streaming slicing. A mobile phone ran tens of thousands of streams a day (think about the matrix profit) Only people who understand the value of Luban No.7 know that the Kami I sold at that time made many people turn around and take a breath
- Viewpoint 2: Is this voluntary surrender
- Viewpoint 3: The most important thing is his sales, which is 200000 copies a year. Why not have this sales ability.
- Viewpoint 4: The videos he stole are the efforts of unknown original authors. There is no so-called income, but just robbery.
- Viewpoint 5: This can earn more than 7 million yuan? I really don't think this technology is difficult. What I admire is the sales technology of this guy
- Viewpoint 6: Yes, many people don't realize that getting customers is much more difficult than code
- Viewpoint 7: If the income is not proportional to the payment, there will be some evil thoughts.
- Viewpoint 8: The correct way of operation is to work in a company with a monthly salary of 50000 yuan. The work is very easy. The boss likes to watch short videos, so he shares the downloaded software he developed "free" to the boss. The company went bankrupt after half a year of work, but 300000 salaries have been paid. Do you think he needs to take responsibility?
- Viewpoint 9: The replacement of the video that has passed the review is equivalent to the database data being tampered, which indicates that the video platform has exposed the relevant interface and the video platform has many vulnerabilities.
