ByteDance announces "OpenAI service banned" clarification
Recently, foreign media reported that ByteDance is using OpenAI technology to develop its own large language model, which violates the OpenAI terms of service. In response, the relevant person in charge of ByteDance stated that when using OpenAI related services, the company emphasizes that it must abide by its terms of use. We are also in contact with OpenAI to clarify possible misunderstandings caused by external reports.
Some engineers used the GPT API for experimental projects at the beginning of the year, but this was stopped after the introduction of call specification checks. The company has instituted internal requirements prohibiting the addition of GPT-generated data to training datasets and tightened oversight of API calls. A comprehensive inspection will be carried out in the coming days to ensure strict compliance with the terms of service.

Huawei executives revealed that Hongmeng native applications have been fully launched and are cooperating with developers and partners in 18 fields. The number of Hongmeng ecological devices currently exceeds 700 million. Recently, 19 game partners participated in the Hongmeng native game cooperation ceremony, and many games have completed or started Hongmeng native development. In addition, Huawei also held the sixth Hongmeng Ecological School, which attracted many well-known application development engineers to participate. Nearly half of mobile Internet applications have started developing Hongmeng native applications, and Hongmeng native applications will soon be officially available for download.

NVIDIA's stock price has risen by about 1,200% in five years, and old employees have begun to lie flat. Huang Renxun is dissatisfied with this
In the past five years, NVIDIA's stock price has soared 1,200%. Some senior employees have begun to lie flat and lose enthusiasm for work after sitting on huge amounts of company stock. Some employees feel that older employees are not working as hard as they can. Employees also accuse Huang of creating an overly employee-centric culture, which combined with a relatively lax management style and the company's newfound dominance of the high-end chip market have exacerbated the flattening.
At last month’s all-employee meeting, Huang Jen-Hsun publicly responded to employees’ questions about the existence of “semi-retired” older employees in the company. Huang Renxun said that working at Nvidia is like a "voluntary sport" and everyone should manage their time like a "CEO". "Huang's message is very clear, 'Do your job well,'" a source said. (IT Home)
OpenAI engineer revealed that it only took 8 days to develop ChatGPT
Recently, OpenAI engineer Arun Vijayvergiya posted a post on social media to celebrate the birthday of ChatGPT and revealed that the development of ChatGPT only took 8 days. The engineer said that one year ago today, he signed up for a research preview of this worldwide demonstration. Within 8 days, the team completed the entire process of product production and launch. At that time, no one could predict how the world would change.
It is reported that Anthropic, founded by some defected employees of OpenAI at the time, was about to release a large model product. In order to release the AI chatbot before them, the OpenAI team wrote a web page and adjusted an interface using Next.js. Then, ChatGPT, which took the world by storm in AI, was born. (New Wisdom)
Sources say iPhone 17 may be equipped with Apple’s self-developed Wi-Fi 7 chip
Analyst Jeff Pu recently released a report that the iPhone 17 Pro series models launched by Apple in 2025 will be equipped with Apple's self-designed Wi-Fi 7 chip. Pu said that Apple’s self-developed Wi-Fi 7 chip will have a long-term impact on existing supplier Broadcom. Pu believes that after Apple deploys its self-developed Wi-Fi 7 chip to Pro models in 2025, it will expand to the entire iPhone 18 series in 2026. However, Pu did not disclose other details of the chip in the research report. (IT Home)
Google DeepMind uses AI to solve super data problems
According to "MIT Technology Review", recently, Google DeepMind used a large language model to solve a well-known unsolved problem in the field of pure mathematics. In a paper published in the journal Nature, researchers say this is the first time large-scale language models have been used to discover a solution to a long-standing scientific puzzle: generating verifiable and valuable new information that never existed. . DeepMind built a tool called "FunSearch" on top of its gaming artificial intelligence AlphaZero to solve mathematical problems by treating them as puzzles in Go or chess. FunSearch incorporates a large language model called Codey, which is trained and honed with computer code and programmed to reject incorrect answers and feed correct answers into its model.

AMD Open Source FSR 3
AMD has open sourced FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution) 3 under the MIT license, an upsampling technology that competes with NVIDIA's DLSS, but unlike DLSS, it does not rely on proprietary CUDA cores, but is based on software. FSR 3 combines upsampling and frame generation. It currently only supports DirectX 12. Support for Vulkan is still under development and will be released in a future version. AMD released FSR 3 at the end of September. At that time, only two games, "Forspoken" and "Immortals of Aveum", were supported. More games will be supported in the future, including Game Science's "Black Myth: Wukong".
Firefox for Android supports over 450 extensions
The Android version of Firefox begins to support more than 450 extensions, covering anti-tracking privacy protection, ad blockers, productivity tools, streaming music, user interface personalization and other aspects, allowing users to customize the mobile browser according to their needs. Firefox for Android previously only supported a limited number of extensions, mainly uBlock Origin, which blocks ads. In August this year, Mozilla announced that it had completed the infrastructure required to support an open extension ecosystem and began to gradually open more browser extensions to Android users.
