MiniMax plans to launch a large model with 2.7 trillion parameters.
PANews reported on July 8th that, according to sources, AI company MiniMax is developing a new large-scale language model with 2.7 trillion parameters, exceeding the scale of all currently available domestic AI models. The sources stated that this new model is expected to be released as early as the third quarter of this year. Internal employees involved in the development have designated it as M3 Pro, but it is unclear whether the company will use this name in the official release. MiniMax plans to open-source the model. This new model is significantly larger than MiniMax's current flagship model, M3 (428 billion parameters). Larger-scale AI models are better suited for handling complex reasoning and multi-step instruction tasks.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a risk warning regarding the potential security backdoors in the AI programming tool Claude Code.
According to Odaily Odaily, the Cybersecurity Threat and Vulnerability Information Sharing Platform (NVDB) of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently discovered that the AI programming tool Claude Code has a security backdoor vulnerability, which poses a serious threat. Claude Code is an AI programming tool developed by Anthropic, an American company, which can autonomously complete code writing and repair tasks based on text requirements. Due to its built-in monitoring mechanism, it can send sensitive information such as user location and identity to remote servers without the user's consent. The affected Claude Code versions are 2.1.91 to 2.1.196. It is recommended that relevant units and users immediately conduct a comprehensive investigation. For development terminals that have installed the above-mentioned affected versions, they should immediately uninstall or upgrade to the latest secure version that has removed the relevant backdoor code. Strengthen the control of external access permissions and traffic monitoring of development tools within the core business network segment to prevent the unauthorized transmission of sensitive data.
Hao Lishun, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: Revenue of large-scale robot companies exceeded 90 billion yuan in the first five months of this year, with an average annual growth rate of over 20% in the past five years.
According to Mars Finance, at a press conference for the 2026 World Robot Conference, Hao Lishun, Deputy Director of the Equipment Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, stated that from January to May this year, the operating revenue of my country's large-scale robot enterprises exceeded 90 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.9%, with an average annual growth rate of over 20% in the past five years. The supporting capabilities for key components have significantly improved, the intelligence level of complete robot products has continued to rise, and the layout in cutting-edge areas such as humanoid robots is accelerating. The technological foundation, including operating systems and simulation platforms, is being built at a faster pace. High-value application scenarios are constantly being enriched, cultivating more new human-machine collaborative positions. The industry's development is gradually shifting from competition based on single-product technology and market size to the integration of supply chain collaboration and development ecosystem.

StarkWare plans to significantly reduce the number of validators in its STRK Delegation Program, raising the cap on a single delegate to 20 million.
According to a proposal released by StarkWare, as reported by Foresight News , StarkWare plans to make significant adjustments to its STRK delegation program, reducing the number of validators from over 130 to a maximum of 31, shifting its strategy from "expanding coverage" to "deepening cooperation." The third round of delegation is divided into two channels: Channel A has a maximum of 26 slots, with each validator receiving at least 15 million STRK delegated, up to a maximum of 20 million. Selection criteria include a 99% mainnet uptime over the past three months and meeting one of the following criteria: ranking among the top 8 in STRK staking (excluding StarkWare and the Starknet Foundation), a leading cross-chain infrastructure provider (up to 8 additional slots), or an ecosystem application developer with an average monthly network fee payment of at least $2,000 over the past three months (up to 10 additional slots). Channel B has a maximum of 5 slots, with each validator receiving 5 million STRK, open to community members actively participating in decentralized discussions, requiring a 99% uptime on mainnet and testnet. The new rules are expected to take effect in five weeks, and community feedback is currently open for two weeks.
