Apple's slow progress in the AI field has led to speculation about senior management changes, with analysts suggesting that CEO Cook should step down. Although the board still supports Cook, the unimpressive AI performance at the WWDC conference has increased investor disappointment. Under Cook's leadership, Apple's market value grew from 340 billion to 3.1 trillion dollars, but critics argue that his success is largely based on improvements from the Jobs era. Faced with the challenges of the AI era, the outside world questions whether Cook has the innovative leadership to open a new chapter for Apple.

Recent research questions the mathematical ability of Alibaba's Qwen2.5 model, suggesting that its high scores may stem from data memorization rather than genuine reasoning. Tests show that Qwen2.5's performance drops sharply on previously unseen clean benchmarks; however, it can accurately reconstruct 60% of known questions, indicating training data contamination. The completion rate in the new LiveMathBench test dropped to zero. The study warns that contaminated benchmarks can mislead AI progress evaluation and emphasizes the need for clean benchmarks and multi-model validation. This finding raises doubts about the effectiveness of current AI evaluation methods and highlights the issue.
