Author: Peng Zhao On November 2, the final day of the 2026 World IoT Expo, I hosted the "2026 Wuxi Liangxi Science and Technology City Robotics Industry Development and Project Matching Conference." An investor from Beijing took the stage, first sighing about how early winter arrives in the north, then pivoting sharply: the landscape for embodied AI has changed. Two years ago, funding in this sector totaled just over CNY 3 billion; by the first half of this year, it had surged to CNY 93.5 billio

Integrated space-air-ground-sea 6G R&D achievements, low-orbit direct-to-handheld satellite connectivity, Wuzhen 5G-A super uplink, 4K high-definition live streaming of Wuzhen canals, and a computing-network infrastructure foundation supporting thousands of industries... These were the impressive scenes I witnessed at the China Mobile booth during the 2026 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit. Starting from Wuzhen, I subsequently visited frontline sites such as Minth's future factory in J

As a key substrate material in compound semiconductors, indium phosphide (InP) is experiencing a surge in demand driven by the AI computing wave, leveraging its luminescent properties that are well-suited for fiber optic communications. In 2026, with the continued ramp-up of 800G and 1.6T high-speed optical modules, the supply-demand balance for upstream InP substrates remains tight. Delivery lead times have lengthened, while new production lines typically require 2 to 3 years to build, making i

Author | Wei Rong Editor | Bao Yonggang If different hardware solutions from various vendors deliver the same 1 million Tokens, which one is actually more cost-effective? This question likely cannot be answered solely by looking at a GPU price list. In the past, customers rented GPUs based on quantity and duration, making bills relatively clear. Today, an increasing number of customers are purchasing Token services directly. Hardware prices, model execution speed, and actual Token output all imp

Author | Wu Yuqing Editor | Tian Zhe On October 17, a distressing accident occurred on the Xupu Bridge in Shanghai. A flatbed truck first collided with a white passenger car, then veered into the opposing lane and struck four more vehicles in succession, resulting in one death and two injuries. Following the accident, numerous reconstructions and discussions about the entire incident emerged online. If the white passenger car had not changed lanes illegally, or if the truck had braked earlier, w

As AI large models, intelligent computing clusters, and agent applications expand rapidly, computing power networks have evolved into integrated infrastructure for hierarchical coordinated scheduling. Computing interconnects are divided into three tiers: Scale-Up (vertical expansion within super-node racks), Scale-Out (horizontal expansion across multiple racks within a data center), and Scale-Across (inter-regional wide-area computing interconnect), as shown in Figure 1. With core advantages of

When discussing the global expansion of Chinese automobiles, the industry tends to focus on complete vehicles, production capacity, and traditional supply chains. However, according to Chu Huabin, General Manager of Kintarui (China) Information Technology Co., Ltd., these elements are no longer sufficient in the era of intelligentization. What truly determines whether Chinese automakers can maintain their global leadership is another long-overlooked supply chain—data. At the Conference on Innova

By Xie Zefeng | Edited by Yang Xuran "The biggest super-application of the AI era is an AI cloud platform centered on AI computing power." Wu Yongming, CEO of Alibaba, presented this view during the Q1 earnings call for fiscal year 2027. His logic is that, in the long run, most enterprise AI workloads—including large-scale training, large-scale inference, customized inference, and enterprise Agent development and operations—require support from a full-stack AI cloud platform. If AI cloud is a su

This year, driven by tight wafer capacity, driver ICs have seen across-the-board price hikes, enabling many manufacturers to achieve revenue growth. However, beyond these dividends, the industry must consider a more critical question: excluding the gains from price increases, is corporate competitiveness actually improving? This was the core issue raised in Hangjia Shuo Display's annual survey among LED driver manufacturers. During this round of research, we observed that Developer Micro's perfo
