Content creators (UPs) can develop their own content or use AI tools such as AI Agent and Vibe coding to quickly generate and iterate. It is reported that the Toy platform has accumulated over 8.5 million user experiences. (Wide Angle Observation)
Chrome updated its app store policy on August 1st, classifying prediction markets as regulated goods and strictly controlling extension data collection.
PANews reported on July 6th that, according to the Google Developer Blog, the Chrome Web Store (extension market) has updated its developer program policy, which will be strictly enforced starting August 1, 2026. The new rules explicitly classify prediction markets as regulated goods, prohibiting extensions that support real-money transactions based on prediction results; user data collected by extensions must be used only for a single, pre-disclosed purpose and cannot be used for other purposes; all data collection activities must be clearly disclosed to users, and developers must proactively inform users if data processing methods change after installation; new clauses also prohibit extensions that bypass AI service security protections and usage restrictions. Extensions that violate these rules may be forcibly removed from the store or subject to other penalties.
Huawei releases "Tao's Law" V2 paper: Kirin 2026 data is publicly disclosed for the first time, supplemented with engineering details and measured data.
According to Beating's monitoring, He Tingbo, head of Huawei's semiconductor division, published the second version of his paper, "Time-Shrinking Theory for Multi-Level Electronic Systems" (Tao's Law), on ChinaXiv, the pre-publishing platform of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, on July 3. Compared to the first version released on May 25, the new version supplements the theoretical framework with a large number of engineering implementation details and quantifiable data, forming a complete eight-chapter discourse system. It also adds principles and physical diagrams covering core technologies such as the τ-layered spatiotemporal model, LogicFolding architecture, bonding interface cross-section, Unified Bus interconnect architecture, and Hi-ONE optical engine. At the engineering implementation level, the second version deeply explains the "gear ratio" concept of LogicFolding: when the hybrid bonding pitch is close to the top-level metal wiring size, the 3D design space shifts from the traditional "macroblock-level discrete optimization" to "cell-level continuous optimization," enabling globally optimal vertical logic partitioning and breaking through the limitation of traditional 3D stacking, which can only be layered by functional blocks. Version V2 also provides, for the first time, a mass production test data table, clearly listing the voltage, frequency, normalized power consumption, area, and power density parameters of the Kirin 2026 and the benchmark Kirin 9030 Pro, further verifying the post-Moore's Law scaling theory centered on the time constant τ through actual measurements. --------------------------------- Click the original link below to join the Beating · Lark AI news channel and monitor global AI hotspots and news 24/7.
