In September 2025, a Chinese state-sponsored hacking group reportedly used Claude Code (an AI programming assistant created by Anthropic) to carry out a large-scale espionage operation against roughly 30 global targets, including major tech companies, financial institutions, chemical manufacturers, and government agencies. Unlike previous AI-assisted attacks, the attackers built an automated framework around Claude Code so that […]

On November 6, 2025, Alibaba-backed Moonshot AI released Kimi K2 Thinking, its most advanced open-source model yet. It’s the first reasoning-focused variant in the Kimi K2 family and marks a major step forward in long-context, multi-step reasoning and autonomous tool use. Kimi K2 Thinking immediately made headlines for its performance: it set new state-of-the-art scores on several open benchmarks, including Humanity’s Last […]

Alibaba’s AI stack just crossed a symbolic frontier. On September 5 2025, the company’s cloud division unveiled Qwen-3-Max-Preview (Instruct), a 1-trillion-parameter large-language model that immediately takes its place among the most complex systems ever deployed and the most powerful AI models. The rollout began quietly inside Qwen Chat and Alibaba Cloud Model Studio. Soon coming to Fello AI. Only […]

Moonshot AI, Chinese startup backed by Alibaba and Tencent, is rolling out an upgraded version of its open‑weight open-source large language model, Kimi K2.

A small Chinese startup has just released a text-to-video model that’s beating Google’s much-hyped Veo 3 across nearly every major benchmark. Meet MiniMax’s Hailuo 02. From physics simulation to prompt accuracy, Hailuo 02 is winning over creators, developers, and the internet at large. And perhaps the most remarkable part? It’s available to everyone for just $8 a month, compared to Veo’s top-tier […]

In late May 2025, Chinese startup DeepSeek quietly rolled out R1-0528, a beefed-up version of its open-source R1 reasoning model. The upgrade boosts parameter count from 671 billion to 685 billion, adds a lightweight distilled variant, and publishes all weights, training recipes and docs under an MIT license on GitHub and Hugging Face. Under the […]

Just when you thought Silicon Valley had the AI game locked down, Alibaba has unleashed Qwen3, a new generation of AI models so powerful they’re making US tech giants sweat.
