Alpha Bot 1S acts as an AI2

Gboard is Google's intelligent keyboard designed for mobile devices, providing a smooth typing experience through statistical decoding. Now, the Google research team has added an innovative feature called 'Proofreading,' leveraging the powerful capabilities of large language models (LLM) to achieve a breakthrough in one-click correction of entire sentences and paragraphs.

There is a misunderstanding about the concept of AI phones. The true AI phone is equipped with a personalized operating system. Honor CEO Zhao Ming aims to fully develop the second local market in Europe.

Zhao Ming stated that the competition in the PC industry is even more intense than that in smartphones. Honor aims to restructure the value chain of PCs, discovering that AI can enhance the overall operating efficiency of PCs, presenting significant potential after restructuring. Honor will use AI to solve cross-device service transfer issues, aiming to outperform Apple. Zhao Ming claimed that Honor leads the world in edge AI and will be capable of competing with Apple in the future.

ByteDance denies violating OpenAI's service terms, stating that the misconduct was an isolated incident during an early experimental project. During the initial phase of exploring large models earlier this year, some engineers used the GPT API service in an experimental project. The misconduct was halted in April, and further measures were taken in September to comply with OpenAI's regulations. The company will conduct a comprehensive review in the coming days to ensure strict adherence to the terms of use for OpenAI's services.

Investment in AI is becoming increasingly significant for the S&P 500. Microsoft and Nvidia have driven much of the index's rise, and many companies need to meet market expectations for their profit outlook. Nvidia is the primary engine driving profit growth, with stock price increases outpacing earnings expectations.

Ming-Chi Kuo expects Apple to invest $4.75 billion in purchasing AI servers in 2024. He believes that Apple will use these servers to train its self-developed AI models to enhance security. Apple is set to purchase AI servers equipped with Nvidia chips. Kuo notes that Apple's investments in AI still lag behind those of Microsoft, Meta, and others. He expresses concerns that Apple will need to continue making substantial investments in its AI business in the future.

Ming-Chi Kuo expects Apple's MacBook shipments to decline by 25-35% year-over-year in the fourth quarter. He indicates that the total MacBook shipments for 2022 will see a significant drop of about 30% compared to the previous year. Kuo mentions that the MacBook faces challenges such as the end of work-from-home demand and decreased attractiveness of chip upgrades. He points out that if AI stocks are key suppliers for the MacBook, their performance should be monitored to see if it can offset the decline in MacBook shipments. Kuo advises a cautious outlook on AI stocks that serve as major suppliers for the MacBook.

A study on using OpenAI's ChatGPT for game programming has revealed challenges faced by AI in helping amateurs create complex game applications. The research generated the Flappy Bird game 35 times, finding that AI struggled to enable non-programmers to create intricate games easily. Despite its potential, AI programming tools require further research and improvement for creating complex programs. The findings indicate that non-programmers find it difficult to leverage ChatGPT systematically without prior programming knowledge.

Investors' expectations for Nvidia are higher than the market consensus. Nvidia's CoWoS fourth quarter shipment growth rate is expected to slow down quarter over quarter. The decline in ChatGPT traffic is increasingly influencing AI stocks.

NVIDIA's release of the L40S may shift investors' focus towards AI edge computing. The L40S is a compute-accelerating graphics card suitable for applications such as graphic rendering, training and inference of large AI models, 3D design, and video processing. The generative AI inference performance of the L40S is 1.2 times higher than that of the A100, and its training performance is 1.7 times higher.

AI/AIGC is already a clear trend, but changes in the industry will create new winners and losers. If AI/AIGC cannot create a sustainable profitable business model, investments in AI/AIGC may slow down.
