Recently, State Grid Corporation announced the launch of China's first trillion-parameter artificial intelligence large model in the power industry - the 'Bright Power Large Model'. They have signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement with Baidu and Alibaba. The officials stated that they will work together with the signing parties to build the Bright Power Large Model and promote the integrated development of energy and power technological innovation and industrial innovation.

Recently, Jiyue Xingchen announced the launch of a new member in the Step series model matrix—the Step-1o end-to-end speech model, claimed to be the first trillion-parameter end-to-end speech model in China. The release of this new model marks a significant advancement in the field of speech technology. By utilizing an end-to-end speech solution, it integrates speech understanding and generation, thereby enhancing the IQ and EQ limits of the model and providing a supernatural, high-quality communication experience.

In the arena of artificial intelligence, China is steadily advancing with a posture of independent innovation. On November 26, the world's first multimodal large model with 100 billion parameters, 'Zidong Taichu' 3.0, was officially unveiled in Wuhan, adding a significant chapter to domestic AI technology. This is not just a technological iteration, but an important milestone in China's AI ecosystem. Jointly developed by the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Huawei, and the Wuhan East Lake High-Tech Zone, 'Zidong Taichu' has successfully built the world's first pre-trained model covering image, text, and audio modalities.

During the 2024 World Internet Conference held today in Wuzhen, Honor CEO Zhao Ming shared his vision for the future development of mobile phones. He stated that by 2027, phones are expected to be able to incorporate large AI models with 100 billion parameters. This advancement will enable phones to learn, understand, and predict user behaviors and intentions, thereby providing users with more personalized arrangements for their lives and work. Image source note: Image generated by AI, image authorized by service provider Midjourney. Currently, several phones on the market are equipped with models of similar scale.

Recently, a startup in Seattle named Moondream launched a compact visual language model called moondream2. Despite its small size, the model has shown outstanding performance in various benchmark tests and has garnered significant attention. As an open-source model, moondream2 is expected to enable local image recognition capabilities on smartphones. Moondream2 was officially released in March and can process both text and image inputs, possessing functions such as answering questions, text extraction (OCR), object counting, and item classification.

At the recent Gemma Developer Day held in Tokyo, Google officially launched its new Japanese version of the Gemma AI model. This model's performance rivals that of GPT-3.5, but it has a parameter count of only 2 billion, making it very compact and suitable for operation on mobile devices. The newly released Gemma model excels in Japanese processing while also maintaining its capabilities in English. This is particularly important for small models, as they may face 'catastrophic forgetting' when fine-tuning for new languages.

Last night, Stability AI unveiled its most powerful model - Stable Diffusion 3.5, which is not just a single model, but a package containing three versions, designed to meet the diverse needs of researchers, business enthusiasts, startups, and enterprises. The three versions are Stable Diffusion 3.5 Large, Stable Diffusion 3.5 Large Turbo, and one that will be available on October 29.
