AI creation platform Flowith has announced the completion of million-dollar seed and seed+ funding rounds. The seed round was participated in by Vertex Ventures and others, while the seed+ round was co-led by Sequoia Capital China Seed Fund and Jiangyuan Investment. Flowith is dedicated to creating an "action-oriented" operating system for the Agentic AI era, having launched multi-threaded canvas interaction, cloud-based infinite Agents, and the first localized AI full-chain creation assistant, FlowithOS.
Alibaba Qwen has announced the open-sourcing of four Qwen3.5 small-scale models, namely Qwen3.5-0.8B, 2B, 4B, and 9B. These models use native multimodal training and the latest architecture, designed to meet lightweight AI demands from edge devices to servers. The 0.8B and 2B models are suitable for mobile devices and IoT edge deployment, the 4B model is positioned as a lightweight Agent base, and the 9B model matches the performance of gpt-oss-120B.
Meituan Guangnian has officially launched its AI Browser Tabbit, promoting the concept of "delegate tasks to Tabbit, keep time for yourself." Tabbit achieves automated operations such as cross-system data flow, daily task management, in-depth research, and data aggregation through an intelligent agent mode (Agent). It supports "Tips" shortcut commands to streamline workflows and offers no-code script customization for web page functions.
OpenAI announces a new round of $110 billion funding, with investors including Amazon, NVIDIA, and SoftBank, contributing $50 billion, $30 billion, and $30 billion respectively. Prior to this funding, the company's valuation had reached $730 billion. OpenAI has also established a strategic partnership with Amazon and agreed on next-generation inference computing technology with NVIDIA.
Google's DeepMind has officially released the next-generation image generation model, Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3.1 Flash Image). The model achieves a balance between image quality and generation speed, primarily by leveraging Gemini's knowledge base and real-time web search, significantly enhancing its understanding of complex Chinese prompts, spatial proportions, real-world common sense, and multi-object consistency.
The global first evolutionary collaboration platform for AI agents, EvoMap, uses its unique Gene Evolution Protocol (GEP) to encapsulate successful strategies accumulated by agents in tasks into standardized "gene capsules." These capsules are shared, verified, and inherited through a decentralized network, effectively addressing the pain point of "isolated experiences" in the AI agent ecosystem.
Anthropic has released the Claude Sonnet 4.6 model, which shows significant performance improvements in programming, agent planning, and computer usage in office scenarios, with intelligence levels approaching or even surpassing those of the company's flagship model, Opus 4.6. With a context window of 1 million tokens, it can refactor an entire codebase in a single call. The price remains the same as the previous generation, but it offers better value and is now available on the claude.ai platform and Amazon Web Services (AWS).
The Qwen3.5 team has officially released the next-generation Qwen3.5 series, with the flagship model Qwen3.5-397B-A17B featuring an innovative hybrid attention and sparse MoE architecture, significantly improving inference efficiency. This model competes with top-tier models like GPT-5.2, Claude 4.5, and Gemini 3 Pro in various cutting-edge benchmark tests, demonstrating comprehensive and leading performance.
ByteDance announced today that the DouBao Large Model has officially entered the 2.0 phase, launching Seed2.0, which includes Pro, Lite, Mini, and Code versions. The new versions have been systematically optimized in terms of reasoning, multimodal understanding, and complex instruction execution capabilities. The Pro version has performed excellently in various academic and reasoning benchmark tests, achieving or surpassing top models like GPT 5.2 and Gemini 3 Pro.
The AgentScope team officially released the personal intelligent agent “CoPaw,” positioning it as a “collaborative personal intelligent agent workspace.” CoPaw is a dedicated intelligent partner that users can deploy locally, simplifying the installation process and enhancing the user experience. Compared to its predecessor OpenClaw, CoPaw focuses on minimal installation and a unified experience, supporting quick deployment on local computers (macOS/Windows/Linux) via simple commands and one-click cloud deployment in Alibaba Cloud’s “ModelScope Creation Space.”
