Westlake Robotics, incubated by Westlake University, has unveiled the humanoid robot Titan o1, powered by the world’s first motion generalization large model. Breakthrough Technology Demonstration Highlights Titan o1’s futuristic orange-black-silver design was paired with motion capture. When a staff member waved, turned, or kicked a ball, Titan o1 replicated every detail—arm angles, turning range, stride length, and rhythm—with millisecond precision. Ease of Use No programming skills required. With motion capture gear or simple computer input, users can make robots execute corresponding actions—“what you think is what they do.” Technical Edge Real-World Potential Beyond “cyber avatars,” Titan o1 could replace humans in high-risk environments such as firefighting, mining, or high-altitude maintenance, opening new horizons for practical deployment. This marks a milestone:...

NVIDIA researchers have introduced a breakthrough compression technology called KVTC (KV Cache Transform Coding), designed to dramatically reduce the memory footprint of large language models (LLMs) during long conversations. Key Highlights Why It Matters Industry experts believe KVTC could become as standard as video compression, enabling AI systems to handle ever-longer conversations efficiently and at scale.
Latest data shows that by Week 11 of 2026, cumulative sales of the Huawei Mate 80 series have reached 4.5301 million units. Since its launch in November 2025, the Mate 80 series has remained in high demand, with the Pro models proving especially popular. Strong demand initially strained supply of the Kirin 9030 chips, but production capacity has since improved, stabilizing overall availability. Huawei’s official store indicates that most models and mainstream storage versions are now in stock, with only the Mate 80 Pro Max 16GB+1TB variant still sold out. Despite rising storage prices pushing Android flagship prices higher, Huawei has taken a contrarian pricing strategy: In terms of core specs, the Mate 80 Standard Edition uses the Kirin 9020,...
On March 22, Microsoft published an official blog promising comprehensive optimizations for Windows 11 within the year, aimed at improving performance, reliability, and the update experience. Key improvements include lower memory usage, reduced Copilot intrusiveness, and enhancements to File Explorer. In terms of update control—one of the most critical user concerns—Microsoft will introduce a faster, more predictable update process, ensuring devices need only restart once per month. Users will gain more direct control, with options to pause updates or restart/shut down without forced installations. Update progress will be displayed more clearly, with built-in recovery features to maintain system stability. Microsoft also aims to deliver a quieter, less disruptive system experience. This includes streamlining the new PC setup process, reducing restart...
Microsoft has announced a major update to Windows 11, delivering one of the most requested features: the ability to place the taskbar on any edge of the desktop—top, bottom, left, or right. This change removes the long-standing limitation of a bottom-only taskbar, a frequent complaint among users. The rollout will begin gradually for Windows Insider Preview members between March and April. Key improvements include: These enhancements mark a significant step in Microsoft’s effort to restore user trust by focusing on personalization, efficiency, and stability.
For years, DIY hardware enthusiasts have criticized Intel for frequently changing desktop processor sockets, forcing users to replace motherboards with each CPU upgrade. This situation may soon change. In a recent interview with Club386, Robert Hallock, Intel’s VP and GM of Enthusiast Channels, confirmed that Intel plans to introduce multi-generation compatible desktop sockets, a move that mirrors AMD’s long-term socket strategy. This means future Intel users may upgrade CPUs without needing a new motherboard. AMD has set the benchmark since 2017, with its AM4 and AM5 sockets supporting multiple CPU generations: By contrast, Intel has rolled out five sockets since 2017: LGA1151, LGA1200, LGA1700, LGA1851, and the upcoming LGA1954 for Nova Lake CPUs. LGA1851, supporting only Arrow Lake’s Core Ultra...
Reports indicate that the MiniMax M2.5 large model has held the crown as the world’s most-used AI model for five straight weeks. During a product demo, company researchers highlighted the striking price gap: overseas models offering similar capabilities can cost up to ten times more than MiniMax. This cost-performance advantage has become the core competitiveness of Chinese AI models in attracting global users. Two main factors drive this edge: In short, MiniMax’s dominance reflects not only technical efficiency but also structural cost advantages, positioning Chinese AI models as global leaders in the era of large-scale inference.

According to media reports, the latest data released by OpenRouter, the world’s largest AI model API aggregation platform, shows that as of March 15, China’s AI large models reached 4.69 trillion tokens in weekly calls, surpassing the United States for the second consecutive week. China’s models currently occupy the top three positions globally in token usage. JPMorgan forecasts that China’s AI inference token consumption will grow from about 10 quadrillion in 2025 to 3,900 quadrillion in 2030, representing a nearly 370-fold increase over five years. In the AI ecosystem, a token is the smallest unit of information processed by a model—whether it’s a user query or a piece of generated code, everything must be broken down into tokens for computation....
According to Korean media reports, Samsung’s foundry business is staging a strong rebound. After securing orders from Tesla and Qualcomm, Samsung has now won the contract to produce NVIDIA’s next-generation AI inference chip, the Grok 3 LPU, and is currently in talks with AMD for future chip collaborations. At GTC 2026, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang announced that Samsung Electronics will manufacture the Grok 3 LPU, the first product launched after NVIDIA’s $20 billion acquisition of Groq.
