市场与声音

In the White House press conference, Trump, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son announced the Stargate Project, an AI initiative likened to Apollo and Manhattan projects in scale.

OpenAI researcher Noam Brown compared its GDP‑scale investment to those historic programs, noting it would proceed only with rigorous scientific review and confidence in success.

The project involves Oracle, NVIDIA, and OpenAI building a computing system, expanding OpenAI’s use of Azure alongside Microsoft.

Musk criticized the funding claims, Altman invited him to visit the site, and Anthropic’s CEO Dario Amodei called the project “messy,” while Google added $1 billion to Anthropic and Microsoft’s Nadella highlighted Azure spending plans.

Tencent launched the Hunyuan 3D AI creation engine, an all‑in‑one platform for 3D content generation, alongside an open‑source Hunyuan3D‑2.0 model that improves geometry and texture quality over prior versions.

The engine supports preset models, text‑to‑3D and image‑to‑3D generation, a full‑stack workflow including geometry, texture, editing, and material library, and enables motion‑driven models after proper T‑pose preparation.

Examples shown include a 3D “snake baby” with Chinese‑style texture and a animated 3D model of the company mascot “阿众” demonstrating walking and kicking animations.

DeepSeek released the open‑source reasoning model R1, which introduces a multi‑stage training pipeline (base → RL → fine‑tune → RL → fine‑tune → RL) and a Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) method to reduce training costs.

Its reward mechanism uses accuracy, format, and language‑consistency rewards to avoid reward hacking, and the model is distilled into smaller Qwen and Llama variants to boost their reasoning abilities.

Performance highlights: R1 scores 77.5 % on MATH (close to OpenAI‑o1’s 77.3 %), 71.3 % on AIME 2024 (beating o1’s 71.0 %), and achieves a Codeforces rating of 2441, surpassing 96.3 % of human participants.
