"Alibaba was Megaspeed’s anchor customer for its south-east Asia cloud service since the beginning and has remained its largest client, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.
One added that Nvidia first met Megaspeed to discuss potential procurement because the company had shown their leasing contract with Alibaba."
The woman at the centre of the Nvidia spying scandal pitched an AI chips deal to China-based investors, touting her ability to secure the US company’s coveted GPUs and her commercial relationship with tech giant Alibaba." ft.com/content/5d8c1e1d-6ce0… @zijing_wu @EleanorOlcott

Thrilled to share this conversation with @robertwrighter on @Valley101en! We recorded it in September, but much of our policy discussion feels even more relevant today. Bob and I talked about his new book, The God Test, the future of humanity, US-China cooperation on AI, the alignment problem, and more. youtube.com/watch?v=YYe5QmXN…

So here it is — @ryolu_ 's talk at @aiDotEngineer 2026 Shanghai.
I shot it handheld on a Xiaomi 15 Ultra, so there's some shake; I fixed as much of it as I could in CapCut. Handheld footage just isn't going to be sharp or steady.
Still, it's the best talk I saw on day 1 of AIE — which is why I'm not posting a text summary. Watch for yourself.
I missed the first minute or so. Ryo opens with the excitement of what AI makes possible, and how seeing what others are building can quickly turn that excitement into anxiety about falling behind.
Voters spoke last night on data centers, and you probably need something to say about what you do.
I’m running a 3-week sprint for investors and operators who need answers now and a narrative for what’s next

Interesting strategy of "If I'm sinking, I'm pulling everyone down with me."
Brilliant because it pivots and expands the story at the same time. It's believable because there is truth in it.
Wow. CZ just exposed the truth about the recent Binance hack.
"If a crypto exchange can be hacked, banks are in a worse position."
"Banks are not safe from security attacks that are increasing due to AI."
Our entire online world is at risk. Government sites, banking infra, healthcare systems - you name it.
The truly dark side of AI.

Maybe Liz was just early, you know?
Here's the NYT Style section piece on Dazzle. We built Dazzle to be great for both genders, but it's particularly good for women because it understands taste and context. It also does it in an easy seamless way by understanding the photos and screenshots you take anyway! @nytimes @xanalter

When business school professors start writing about why Bschool should not exist and the case method is really just corporate reputation management --the era of gatekeeping coming to an end?

“We’re in the early stages of building out a humanoid robot industrial base, and we want that here, rather than waiting five or ten years where we’re going to have to pay tens of billions of dollars to replicate something that the Chinese have already done,” says CFR expert @petereharrell while testifying before the House Select Committee on Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party.

ByteDance has set up a dedicated frontier AI model alignment and preparedness department, Chinese media The Paper reports.
The department will work on model/agent alignment and frontier risk mitigation including CBRN (one of the first Chinese companies to say publicly that they are working on this).
Worth noting that ByteDance has always had a team working on model alignment, led by Yan Lin (严林). What's new is that this work is now being elevated to the level of a standalone department, while still being led by Yan.
