At the recent WAIC conference, tech giants like SenseTime, JD, and Tencent showcased their latest AI breakthroughs, including embodied AI, large language models, and 3D modeling. While these innovations promise immense potential, they've also sparked serious concerns about ethics and safety. For example, Tencent and Zhihui Jun are pursuing distinct development paths for embodied AI—one closed-source, the other open-source. Furthermore, applications such as AI Agents and AI Butlers introduce significant data security and ethical dilemmas, emphasizing the critical need to balance groundbreaking tech with social responsibility.

Today’s AI Lowdown

  1. AI Giants’ Tech Breakthroughs & Ethical Challenges at 2025 WAIC 🚀💡: The 2025 WAIC saw some mind-blowing AI tech breakthroughs from giants like SenseTime, JD, and Tencent, but it also sparked some serious ethical discussions. SenseTime unveiled its “Wuneng” Embodied AI Platform, giving robots super-powered perception and multi-view video generation. JD rolled out its JoyAI large model, flexing its muscles across retail, logistics, and healthcare, and even open-sourced its JoyAgent intelligent agent collaboration engine. Tencent dropped Hunyuan 3D World Model 1.0, which can whip up high-quality 3D scenes super fast, and also open-sourced Hunyuan TurboS and Hunyuan Vision. These incredible achievements really show off artificial intelligence’s massive potential, but they’ve also got us thinking hard about the speed of tech development, ethical safety, and the risks of open-sourcing.

  2. Tencent’s “1+3+N” AI System vs. Zhihui Jun’s “Zhiyuan Lingqu OS” Open-Source Plan ⚔️🌐: Tencent’s “1+3+N” AI System and Zhihui Jun’s “Zhiyuan Lingqu OS” open-source plan are showing us two very different paths for embodied AI. Tencent launched its “1+3+N” panoramic AI system, built on the Hunyuan Large Model, which includes the Tencent Embodied AI Open Platform Tairos. Meanwhile, Zhihui Jun went fully open-source with his “Zhiyuan Lingqu OS” embodied AI operating system reference framework and the humanoid robot Lingxi X2. These two approaches—closed-source versus open-source—each have their pros and cons. Who’ll come out on top? Only time will tell! Tencent AI Panorama 🔗 Zhiyuan Lingqu OS

  3. Embodied AI: Opportunities & Challenges 🤖🤯: Embodied AI is knocking on our door, with Tencent’s Tairos and Zhihui Jun’s Lingxi X2 leading the charge. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows! This new era also brings along some hefty challenges like data security, ethical dilemmas, and nagging technical bottlenecks. 🔗 awesome-llm-apps 🔗 infisical

  4. Tiandong Tech’s Navos Marketing AI Agent Fuels Chinese Brands’ Global Expansion 📈🔥: Tiandong Tech’s Navos Marketing AI Agent is making waves by helping Chinese brands go global. Navos, the world’s first marketing AI Agent launched by Tiandong Tech, pulls together a ton of industry data and experience to deliver personalized marketing strategies and services. It offers a one-stop solution from initial creative ideas to conversion results, boasting core strengths like being data-driven, scenario-focused, providing full-link services, and offering high efficiency and convenience.

  5. AI Agent: Balancing Innovation & Social Responsibility 🤔⚖️: AI Agents are set to shake up how every industry operates. While they’re super innovative, they also bring some sticky issues to the table, like data security, algorithm bias, and potential job displacement. So, it’s crucial to find that sweet spot, balancing technological innovation with social responsibility.

  6. AI Butler Safety: A Huge Challenge with the IS-Bench Benchmark 🚨🏡: AI Butlers are facing a huge safety challenge, according to the IS-Bench test benchmark. Developed by researchers from Shanghai AI Lab and Beihang University, the IS-Bench benchmark reveals that current AI butlers complete household tasks with a safety success rate of less than 40%, pointing to massive security risks. 🔗 Project Repository

  7. AI Scanning Tech Powers Cultural Heritage Protection 🖼️✨: AI scanning technology is coming to the rescue of cultural heritage! CamScanner, an app under Hanhe Info, showed off its “Infinite Scan” tech, which can scan massive cultural relics like the “Kunyu Wanguo Quantu” (Map of Myriad Countries) in high definition and full detail. How cool is that?!

  8. LLMs’ “Trust Crisis”: The PRMBench Benchmark Test ⚠️📉: LLMs are facing a major “trust crisis,” highlighted by the PRMBench benchmark test. Recent research has found that current Process-Level Reward Models (PRMs) are seriously lacking when it comes to spotting subtle errors in reasoning processes. The PRMBench benchmark testing shows their safety completion rate is way below human levels. That’s a bit worrying! ▶️ Video Demo 🔗 Project Homepage

  9. AI Protein Design Enters the “Programmable” Era with MoleculeOS Platform 🧬✨: AI protein design just entered the “programmable” era with the MoleculeOS platform! Molecular Heart Company’s AI Protein Optimization and Design Platform, MoleculeOS, boasts prediction capabilities that even outshine AlphaFold 3. It can perform ultra-high precision dynamic protein design, making the leap from static observation to fully dynamic design. This is a huge deal!

  10. AI Protein Design: Opportunities & Challenges 🌱🔮: AI protein design is booming, bringing both incredible opportunities and significant challenges. We need to carefully consider its potential ethical and societal impacts as it becomes more widely adopted.

  11. Tom Huang Catches Up with Friends 😄📸: Tom Huang shared some awesome photos of his get-together with friends, really showing off the fun side of human interaction. Good for him! View Image View Image View Image View Image

  12. Xiangyang Qiaomu Launches His First Mac App 💻🎉: Xiangyang Qiaomu just dropped his first Mac app, and get this: he even fixed a tricky issue where the system was wrongly flagging it as corrupted! What a legend! View Image

  13. Li Jigang’s Take on AI Dialogue: The Need for “Resistance” 🗣️🚧: Li Jigang has some deep thoughts on AI conversations, arguing that effective dialogue needs “resistance.” He suggests giving AI characters a stable, narrow-minded, and contradictory “self” to create that necessary friction. Interesting take!

  14. Li Jigang: “AI Child Laborers” & The Idea of “Intelligence Gyms” 🧠🤖: Li Jigang has another fascinating idea, suggesting that current Artificial Intelligence is like an “AI child laborer.” He even speculates that an “intelligence gym” might emerge in the AI era, sparking contemplation on how humans can cultivate their own abilities in this new age. Food for thought!
