Meituan open-sourced its trillion-parameter large-scale model LongCat-2.0, and simultaneously released the inference code for domestically developed Chinese card processors.
According to Beating's monitoring, Meituan has officially open-sourced its trillion-parameter large-scale model, LongCat-2.0, with a total of 1.6T parameters and an average activation of approximately 48B, designed specifically for real-world agentic coding tasks. Architecturally, it innovatively introduces LongCat sparse attention and N-gram embedding. The former reduces fragmented memory access through flow-aware indexing and hierarchical indexing, accelerating training and inference with millions of contexts; the latter, while achieving nearly 97% sparsity in MoE, invests 135B parameters into the embedding layer, balancing parameter gains and structural stability. Post-training employs multi-teacher online distillation, categorizing experts into Agent, Inference, and Interaction types, seamlessly integrating them on a domestic computing power cluster through the MOPD architecture. As the industry's first trillion-parameter model to complete inference on a 50,000-card domestic computing power cluster, LongCat-2.0 validates the mature capability of domestic chips to handle complex large-scale model tasks. To address the multiple limitations of domestically produced Chinese chips in terms of memory, bandwidth, and interconnects, Meituan has made breakthroughs in three areas: model, chip adaptation, and deployment. At the model level, ScMoE leverages the core control capabilities of domestically produced chips to achieve physical core-level parallelism for Dense and MoE branches, combined with KV-cache partitioning to alleviate the pressure on ultra-long context memory. At the chip adaptation level, Super Kernel reduces operator startup overhead, and Weight Prefetch hides I/O latency, maximizing hardware utilization under constrained conditions. At the deployment level, PD separation is adopted to balance TTFT and TPOT, along with asynchronous Expert-Parallel load balancing to solve load unevenness under high EP (efficiency level). This open-source release simultaneously provides multiple precision versions, including BF16, FP8, and INT8, and fully opens up inference results optimized for domestic computing power, aiming to enable existing domestically produced cards and even older cards to smoothly deploy trillion-model inference services. --------------------------------- Click the original link below to join the Beating · Lark AI news channel and monitor global AI hot topics and news 24/7.
The Doubao intelligent agent function will be discontinued on July 15th.
According to Beating's monitoring, Doubao issued a "Notice on the Discontinuation of Doubao's Intelligent Agent Function," stating that the Intelligent Agent function will be discontinued on July 15, 2026. At that time, users will no longer be able to create new Intelligent Agents, and existing created and saved Intelligent Agents will also be inaccessible and unusable. After July 15, Doubao will process the related data for Intelligent Agents, making it impossible to view or restore them within Doubao afterward. --------------------------------- Click the original link below to join Beating's AI news channel on Lark, monitoring global AI hotspots and news 24/7.
Report: Fixed computing power masks the true capabilities of AI; the evolutionary speed of cutting-edge intelligent agents is underestimated by 60%.
According to Beating's monitoring, the UK AI Security Institute points out that current mainstream AI agent testing has significant blind spots. Evaluation methods with fixed computing power limits severely underestimate the true capabilities and iteration speed of models. The research team tested the performance of several cutting-edge large-scale models in benchmarks such as cybersecurity, software engineering, and mathematics. The test results show that the performance of an agent is not a fixed score, but rather a curve that continuously increases with test-time compute. In network attack and defense tests, when the computing power budget increased from 2.5 million tokens to 50 million tokens, the upper limit of the complexity of tasks that the most advanced agents could overcome (equivalent to human time) skyrocketed from 2 hours to 14 hours. Many attempts that failed with low computing power could eventually complete the task if given sufficient computing power to allow the agent to explore and correct errors. The new model's utilization efficiency of test-time compute power is significantly higher than that of the old model. Under a sufficient budget, the measured trend of cutting-edge capability evolution (the slope of the fitted curve) is approximately 60% steeper than in low-computing-power tests, demonstrating that traditional assessments severely underestimate the true iteration speed of AI. However, this computing power advantage has its limits; in fields such as healthcare where immediate feedback is lacking, increasing computing power does not necessarily improve the performance of intelligent agents. As inference costs decrease, low-budget assessments may lead decision-makers to underestimate the risks of AI agents in practical applications.
Zuckerberg: The development of AI agents has not accelerated "as we expected" in the past four months.
According to Beating's monitoring, Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated at an internal shareholder meeting that the 2026 restructuring "could have been handled more efficiently." Over the past four months, the development of AI agents has not "accelerated as much as we expected." At the beginning of 2026, executives were concerned about "not moving fast enough" in the field of artificial intelligence. The company's bet on restructuring "has not yet paid off." The long-term trend remains consistent with the basic structure of the restructuring. Spending on artificial intelligence has put pressure on the company; without this spending, the stock price would have been higher; however, this is a long-term investment. The company expects to see more benefits from its AI investments in the next 3-6 months. --------------------------------- Click the original link below to join Beating's AI news channel on Lark, monitoring global AI hotspots and news 24/7.
AI-powered agents suffer setbacks in their first foray into coffee shops: Gemini's excessive discounting leads to losses, and GPT's overly stingy practices cause raw material shortages.
According to Beating's monitoring, AI evaluation agency Andon Labs released test data on its AI agent Mona operating a physical coffee shop. In the first two months, Mona ran on a Gemini 3.1 Pro model. During this period, the model showed almost no concept of profit, not only excessively purchasing raw materials but also being easily swayed by customer claims, offering large discounts or even free items, and even admitting to a customer's claim of a 99% discount without verification. This resulted in the coffee shop spending approximately $15,000 on supplier and equipment purchases, while sales were only $9,000, leading to a net operating loss of nearly $6,000 (if fixed costs such as rent and salaries are included, total expenditures reach $38,000). Subsequently, the team switched the model to GPT-5.5. The new model showed significant anxiety in the face of losses and immediately stopped blindly ordering. However, this went to the other extreme: insufficient purchases led to a shortage of fresh raw materials. As of June 25, the availability of menu items had dropped to 77%, and 10 dishes had been forced to be removed from the menu. Meanwhile, GPT-5.5 demonstrated extremely strong anti-cheating and anti-jailbreak capabilities, rejecting all customers who requested special prices or offered free food in exchange for social media promotion.
Gemini desktop application integrates Spark agents: bridging local automation and remote mobile control.
According to Beating, Google announced the integration of Spark Agent into Gemini on macOS, transforming it from a simple chat window into a local assistant capable of controlling your computer. Once licensed, Gemini Spark can handle mundane desktop tasks, such as automatically organizing all PDFs in a download folder into different directories, reading local invoices and automatically generating budget spreadsheets in Google Workspace, and even setting scheduled updates. Another highlight is the upcoming remote execution capability. In the future, even when away from the computer, users can send commands to the Mac via their mobile phones to search for sales reports locally and extract data to send via email. Simultaneously, Spark has expanded its connectivity, supporting the open MCP protocol for easy integration of custom tools by developers, and also connecting with popular applications such as Keep, Tasks, Canva, and Dropbox, allowing users to directly access cloud files or convert fragmented notes into to-do items within chat. Currently, the Spark Agent on the macOS client is first available for beta testing in the United States for Google AI Ultra subscribers.
