On July 15, Mita AI Search announced the completion of a new iteration of its 'Deep Research' module and its official public beta launch, becoming the first search service in China that is freely open to the public and features multi-turn reasoning chain visualization. The upgraded system adopts a segmented reinforcement learning strategy, breaking down the originally computationally intensive 'Deep Research' tasks into multiple sub-tasks, maintaining result accuracy while reducing operational costs to a level that allows for public free access. It performs particularly well in retrieving and reasoning with Chinese corpus.

OpenAI announced the postponement of its first open-source large model release, with CEO Sam Altman stating that more time is needed for safety testing and risk assessment. This new model, which has performance comparable to o3-mini, may be named 'Open Model,' but the extent of its openness remains unclear. Research Vice President Aidan Clark emphasized that the company maintains strict standards for open source, as the model cannot be recalled once released. Although the delay disappointed some users, OpenAI believes ensuring safety and taking a responsible approach is more important. This decision will shape the future of models.

OpenAI announced the postponement of the open-source large model release. CEO Sam Altman stated that more time is needed for safety testing. The model was originally scheduled to be released this week but is now delayed until next week to ensure its safety and reliability. Altman emphasized that once the model is released, it cannot be recalled and must be handled with caution. This is OpenAI's first attempt to release a downloadable self-running model, aimed at providing powerful tools for researchers and small businesses. Although the delay is disappointing, the community generally understands the importance of safety testing and believes it is crucial for the AI ecosystem.

The United Nations University research team developed two AI virtual characters - Amina, a Sudanese refugee, and Abdullah, a rebel fighter - to raise public awareness of the refugee crisis through dialogue. The project was experimentally conducted by an academic team and is not an official United Nations project. Although researchers envisioned using it for fundraising presentations, test users provided negative feedback, stating that real refugees can already speak for themselves. The relevant website is currently unavailable.
