On February 28, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) issued the "Management and Technical Guidelines for the Access, Recall, and Online Software Upgrade of Intelligent Connected Vehicle Products," clearly requiring that intelligent connected vehicle systems should have strategies to prohibit the activation of corresponding functions when the driver does not use the combined driving assistance functions in a standard manner. This new regulation aims to further improve the safety and controllability of intelligent driving assistance systems. According to the guidelines, intelligent connected vehicle systems need to have clear activation, execution, and exit strategies. For driving assistance functions, when the system detects that the driver is detached from the dynamic driving task, fails to respond to warnings, and...

According to reports, the core of Tencent Yuanbao's recent upgrade lies in the application of the "Hunyuan + DeepSeek" dual-mode aggregation technology. In the past, DeepSeek mainly played the role of information extraction, similar to a "scanner." However, with the support of Tencent's Hunyuan multimodal technology, DeepSeek can now truly understand the details, atmosphere, and even hidden meanings within images. This transformation enables Tencent Yuanbao to "comprehend" images and provide its own analysis and interpretation.

With the application of DeepSeek, Baidu Maps has completed its deep integration with DeepSeek-R1. Users can directly ask questions in the search bar, such as inquiring 'What fun places are there in Zhengzhou?' By selecting the DeepSeek tag, they can receive answers that have been deeply analyzed. These answers not only provide recommended attractions but also include relevant addresses, allowing users to navigate with a click. As a result, the efficiency of obtaining information while using the map has greatly improved. It's worth mentioning that Baidu has become one of the successors to Tencent.

As artificial intelligence technology continues to evolve, more people are starting to pay attention to the depictions of teenagers by AI systems. Robert Wolf, a PhD student at the University of Washington, conducted an experiment where he had the AI system complete the sentence 'This teenager is _____ at school.'

This discovery prompted Wolf and his team to delve deeper into how AI portrays teenagers. Image source note: Image generated by AI, image licensed from service provider Midjourney.

In multimodal tasks, visual language models (VLMs) play a crucial role, such as in image retrieval, image captioning, and medical diagnosis. These models aim to align visual data with language data for more efficient information processing. However, current VLMs still face significant challenges in understanding negation. Negation is critical in many applications, such as distinguishing between "a room without windows" and "a room with windows." Despite significant progress made by VLMs, existing models fall short when it comes to handling negated statements.
