AMD announce FSR Upscaling 4.1 officially coming to RDNA 3 and RDNA 2 GamingOnLinux

KanawatTH Take-Two Interactive Software ( TTWO ) jumped 5.8% in premarket trading as investors eyed the potential impact of Grand Theft Auto 6 hitting the market on November 26, ahead of the holiday shopping blitz. There is growing buzz that the long-awaited third Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer will be released on May 18, and TTWO's Rockstar Games will begin to take pre-orders for the game. While the company has not issued an official update, Best Buy ( BBY ) affiliates received emails indicating Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders are set to go live on May 18 and will remain open until May 21. The game had originally launched with a 2025 release window before being pushed to May 26 of this year and then delayed again to its current November target. The second delay sent Rockstar parent Take-Two Interactive's ( TTWO ) stock down as much as 18% on the day of the announcement, with shares still not fully recovered. In February, Take-Two ( TTWO ) CEO Strauss Zelnick confirmed the November 19 date remains on track and that a marketing campaign is expected to kick off sometime in the summer. Notably, a third trailer also appears to be on the horizon, which could be a TTWO share price catalyst. The game is confirmed for PlayStation 5 ( SONY ) and Xbox Series X|S ( MSFT ) at launch, with no official PC version announced, although the series' history strongly suggests one will follow. Other companies that could benefit to varying degrees from a successful GTA 6 launch include GameStop ( GME ), AMD ( AMD ), Nvidia ( NVDA ), and Logitech ( LOGI ). Starting as a top-down PC game in 1997, the GTA franchise evolved through five major releases over 16 years, including a jump to 3D with GTA III in 2001, beloved entries in Vice City (2002) and San Andreas (2004), and a noteworthy cinematic leap with GTA IV (2008), before GTA V landed in 2013 and became one of the best-selling entertainment.

U.S. President Donald Trump's summit with Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping could hinge on two key tech flashpoints — critical minerals and market access for American companies. The much-anticipated bilateral meeting between the two countries that were locked in a tariff standoff just a year ago began on Thursday, with warm words exchanged between the two leaders. The discussions will continue into Friday and are expected to cover geopolitics in Taiwan and Iran, as well as key trade topics. But it's issues relating to U.S. and Chinese tech sectors that could be crucial points of discussion and contention, with a roster of key American executives including Nvidia's Jensen Huang, Tesla's Elon Musk and Apple's Tim Cook joining Trump on the plane.

The dot-com bubble began to burst in the spring of 2000, when presidential candidates George Bush and Al Gore emerged from their party conventions, the human genome project unveiled its first draft, and ‘American Beauty’ dominated the Oscars with five awards, including best picture. More than a quarter-century later, however, those same three stocks are leading an old-tech revival that has powered U.S. markets to a series of record highs, paced by an insatiable appetite for all things related to artificial intelligence. Investors are seeing few signs of a pullback like the one during the turn of the century crash that rocked tech markets for a decade.

现在越来越多首创的创新药来自中国，企业需要看到更多“出海”的机会。 随着中国创新药企业正在不同治疗领域和技术路线上展现出显著的专业化和差异化发展策略，全球化市场布局已成为本土药企的必然选择。 14日，由国际药物信息协会（下称“DIA”）主办的“2026药物信息大会暨展览会”在上海开幕，DIA全球首席执行官马尔万·法萨拉（Marwan Fathallah）在接受第一财经记者专访时说，中国市场的巨大机会在于让本土药企和整个生态系统更好地融入全球生态。“市场不仅仅在中国，以前我们有本地生产的仿制药，但现在越来越多首创的创新药来自中国。企业需要看到更多‘出海’的机会，‘更多地引进来，更多地带出去’正是DIA未来期待的领域。” 随着人工智能、细胞治疗等生命科学早期技术的革新不断涌现，资金投资、临床研究、审批及上市报销等各个环节亟需高效配合与无缝连接。马尔万特别提到了目前创新疗法的“成本与可及性”问题。比如面对可能高达两三百万美元的治疗费用，如何在保持创新动力的同时，通过商业保险、政府医疗保障等创新方式解决报销问题，是提高患者可及性的关键。 “举个例子，在非洲他们当地人的购买力和中国、美国以及欧洲都是不可相比的，他们的承担能力要低很多，但是那里的患者们也需要健康，也需要这些新的疗法。”他告诉记者，DIA正协助企业开拓新兴市场，解决跨国审批与制度差异难题。面对非洲地区巨大的医疗需求与有限的支付能力，DIA将于今年12月首周与盖茨基金会合作，在埃及举办“非洲上市科技新峰会”。届时，来自中国、印度、日本、欧美的资金方、生产方及创新企业将共同探讨应对多国不同审批制度的创新解决方案。此外，DIA也计划在拉美地区推进类似的平台对话，依托对生态系统的深刻理解，为企业寻求更高效的全球商业化路径。 针对中国药物走向全球市场的挑战，马尔万说，除了确保药物在科学上的安全有效之外，最大的挑战在于信心与信任的建立——即对数据的信心和对人际关系的信心。 “大家看重的不仅是科学事实和药物质量，对背后人员与关系的信心同样必不可少。”他鼓励中国本土公司积极参与DIA在中国及欧洲、中东、非洲、拉美、日本等全球各地的会议。“通过在这些平台上与全球监管方、支付方、商业领袖及患者权益代表的直接交流，企业能够建立起更加可信赖的关系，这正是DIA汇聚相关方的核心意义所在。” 成立于1964年的DIA至今已有61年的历史，2...

最近，中国最大的独立AI算力集群公司，要上市了。 在这一轮全球AI浪潮里，跑出了一批独立AI云公司，也就是所谓的 Neocloud。比较典型的代表，就是CoreWeave和Nebius。 它们做的事情很简单，把最稀缺的GPU算力资源，从传统云厂商体系里“拆”出来，再以更高效率直接卖给AI客户。 但这事在中国没有跑通，因为国内太缺GPU了。可也正因为如此，反而催生出了另一门生意： AI算力集群建设。 因为GPU短缺只是问题的一部分，更大的问题是，如何让有限的算力资源，以更高效的方式跑起来。 而这，恰恰给了基流科技机会。靠着帮客户建设AI 数据中心，公司在过去三年里快速增长。 招股书显示，2023年、2024年和2025年，公司营收分别为3180万元、3.25亿元和5.20亿元，两年时间翻了超过 16 倍。 更夸张的是，这家公司成立于2023年2月。 也就是说，只用了3年多时间，它就已经走到了港股IPO门口。某种程度上，这家公司本身，就是这一轮中国AI基础设施狂飙的缩影。 今天，硅基君就带你聊聊这家“AI集群包工头”。 做AI数据中心建设的“包工头” 很多人对 AI 算力有一个误解：只要买到足够多的高端 GPU，大模型就能顺利跑起来。 但其实并非如此，即使单卡算力再强，如果不能把成千上万张 GPU 高效连接起来，那也只是“纸面算力”。 因为大模型训练，本质上是一个极其复杂的分布式系统问题。尤其随着GPU数量增长，复杂度还会呈现非常明显的非线性上升。 原因很简单，今天的大模型训练，本质上是在疯狂增加 GPU 之间的通信。 无论是数据并行、张量并行、流水线并行，还是 MoE（混合专家），核心都离不开一件事——GPU 之间不断同步参数、交换数据。 于是，一个问题开始越来越突出：GPU 算得越来越快，但网络却没跟上。 在AI 集群里，有一个非常经典的问题：“带宽墙（Bandwidth Wall）”。 也就是说，数据传输速度，开始跟不上 GPU 算力增长。最终结果就是，大量 GPU 空转。 哪怕是 NVIDIA、OpenAI 这样的顶级玩家，大规模训练时，MFU（模型浮点运算利用率）很多时候也只有 40%—50% 。所谓 MFU就是，到底有多少算力真正被模型训练利用了。 MFU 差10%，背后可能就是数亿美元级别的算力成本差距。 从这个角度上说，能不能把成千上万张 GPU 真正稳...

OlekStock Fresh inflation data is raising new concerns on Wall Street after updated estimates from Bespoke Investment Group pointed to a sharp acceleration in the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge for April. According to a Bespoke investment model, recent Consumer Price Index and Producer Price Index data imply that Core Personal Consumption Expenditures inflation could rise at a 4.6% annualized pace for the month. If realized, the reading would mark one of the strongest monthly increases in core inflation since late 2023 and reinforce fears that price pressures remain deeply embedded across the economy. The projection also suggests year-over-year core PCE inflation could climb to its highest level since October 2023, while the three-month annualized trend would move back above 3%. Such an outcome could complicate expectations for Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts later this year. Markets have increasingly reassessed the outlook for monetary policy following a series of hotter-than-expected inflation readings, with investors closely monitoring whether sticky services costs, housing inflation, and broader pricing pressures continue limiting progress toward the Fed’s 2% inflation target.

来源：中国新闻社 编者按 14日晚，国家主席习近平在人民大会堂金色大厅为美国总统特朗普举行欢迎宴会。特朗普致辞中时提及，孔子雕像被镌刻在美国最高法院的门楣。 美国最高法院门楣为何有孔子像？中新社“东西问”曾就此专访美国汉学家万百安，对此作出独家解读。特重刊此文。 中新社记者 陈孟统 美国最高法院大楼建成于1935年，由美国建筑师卡斯·吉尔伯特（Cass Gilbert）设计。这座位于首都华盛顿第一街的建筑正门朝西，与国会大厦隔街而望。然而这座大楼的一些建筑设计细节与构思，却远不如最高法院作为美国司法权象征那般为人所熟知。 就连美国最高法院官方网站的简介中也这样写道：“游客往往注意不到最高法院大楼东侧的尖顶和廊柱。这里的雕像群由赫蒙·麦克尼尔（Hermon Atkins MacNeil）雕刻，主雕像是伟大的立法先贤，摩西、孔子和梭伦，两侧人像浮雕象征着执法、仁慈、解决各州之间争端、海事和其他最高法院的职能。” 来源： 中新视频 为何孔子像会雕刻在美最高法院的门楣之上？美国汉学家、美国瓦萨学院哲学教授万百安（Bryan W． Van Norden）接受中新社“东西问”独家专访，探寻中国哲学思想曾经对美国的影响，以及为如今的中美关系所带来的启发。 万百安研究中国哲学逾30年，曾翻译《孟子》等多部中国哲学经典。他一直倡导哲学教育应打破以西方为中心的视角，摒弃偏见与误解。他的近著《哲学上的拨乱反正：多元文化哲学宣言》中文版也即将与读者见面。 来源： 中新视频 《【东西问】美国最高法院门楣为何有孔子像？ 》 立法先贤的寓意与文明借鉴 中新社记者：孔子像为什么会出现在美国最高法院的门楣上？这个细节好像许多美国民众也不太了解。 万百安： 最高法院大楼东西两侧门楣各有一组雕像群。西侧正门上方中心雕像是正义女神，她周围还有一些具有象征意义的雕像。东侧门楣人们不常看到，因为这里不是主入口。如果只是来参观最高法院大楼、出差或者旅游，通常你只会看到西侧门楣。但东侧门楣非常有意思，中心雕像群从左至右，依次是孔子、摩西和古希腊立法先贤梭伦。 中新社记者：这尊孔子雕像的设计寓意是什么？在为数不多的中文简介中，有的说法认为孔子是道德的象征，也有人认为他在此是教育的化身。 万百安： 这组雕像的设计者麦克尼尔曾说，他是用这三个人物来代表美国文明的东方起源。东方起源的象征，出现在美国最高法院东侧的门楣上，...

h3ct02 Shares of Wolverine World Wide ( WWW ) are rallying into Thursday’s open after reporting strong first quarter results that underscored robust demand for its active footwear despite price increases. Led by its Merrell and Saucony brands, Wolverine ( WWW ) generated 11% more revenue in the first quarter, exceeding expectations by $8M and contributing to a profit of $0.25 per share, up 32% year-over-year and 3 cents better than anticipated. To offset the impact of U.S. tariffs and increased COGS, the company raised prices and shifted towards more full-price sales, maintaining its 47.6% gross margin. Adjusted operating margin, however, improved by 140 basis points to 7.7%. By brand, sales generated by its Saucony and Merrell brand increased by 20% and 13%, respectively, while Sweaty Betty sales were up by just 1.5%. Wolverine sales fell 2.5%. For FY26, Wolverine World Wide ( WWW ) continues to expect revenue to be within a range of $1.96B and $1.985B, representing growth of 4.6% and 5.9% year-over-year but slightly below the consensus estimate at the midpoint. Profit guidance was raised, however, now expected to be within a range of $1.43 and $1.58 per share from prior outlook of $1.35 and $1.50 per share, with the $1.50 midpoint of the new range 4 cents better than estimates. Other estimates for the year include a 9.5% adjusted operating margin, up 50 basis points year-over-year and a 40-basis point improvement from the prior outlook. Gross margin is expected to be ~46.4%, down 90 basis points from a year ago but up 40 basis points from the company’s prior guidance.

HCC announces new partnership with Tesla to 'strengthen Houston's workforce' KHOU

五六年前，我们采访过一家北京的智慧养老院，给每个房间都配上了智能音箱，让AI陪老人聊天、报新闻、遥控IoT设备。今年回访，工作人员说，那些智能陪伴设备已经停用很久了。 不用就不用吧，2023年大语言模型、数字人、AI 音视频生成等新技术，又催生了新一批AI养老服务。比如2024 年下半年的AI代写回忆录风潮，能月入过万。 AI声纹复刻的风也吹到了养老界，子女念几句话，AI就能克隆出相似的声音，给老人问候、聊天、讲故事，还有刷屏社交媒体的老照片修复，用AI帮老人找回青春的容颜和岁月。 这些服务有一个共同特征，主打情感陪伴和慰藉。商业模式之所以能运转起来，靠的其实是后辈们的尽孝心理。消费的是老人，而买单的是年轻人。 AI为子女们提供了一种尽孝的新方式，可孝心真的能外包给AI吗？ AI正在替人尽孝 正如我们在养老院所看到的，AI陪聊是最早落地的智能养老服务之一，原因也很简单，语音合成技术早在大模型尚未出现的机器学习时代就比较成熟了。有了大模型，现在的AI陪聊机器人的能力进一步升级。 相比之前TTS技术的模板化对话，基于大模型的AI陪聊具备更长的记忆能力，能记住老人的生活习惯、兴趣爱好，音色表达上也更富情感，甚至会通过停顿、打嗝来模拟人味儿。如果还能复制子女、孙辈的声音陪老人聊天，那亲近感就更强烈了。 有多项科学研究证实，长期寂寞、缺乏情感互动的老人，会因为不说话而没有社交，没有社交则更不想说话，形成恶性循环，更容易抑郁，患认知障碍（如阿尔茨海默病）的风险比经常交流的老人高。所以，AI的24小时陪聊，主动引导老人开口说话，是一个很不错的倾诉出口，加上软硬件成本低廉，不会造成太大经济负担，所以教老人用AI陪聊，就成了很多常年在外的年轻人所追捧的新型年货。 除此之外，AI帮老人还原青春的服务也逐渐兴起，通过给老照片上色、修复，并借助AIGC视频生成技术让平面的照片动起来，让老人可以再次重温鲜活的青春岁月。这类服务的收费也不高，一张照片只需要几十元，并且随着美图秀秀、醒图等大众APP陆续上线免费的AI老照片修复功能，价格快速下探，年轻人都能帮老人实现。不过，这类服务也有着极强的一过性，一次修复之后就不会再购买了，而且老照片本来也很有限，很多高龄老人年轻时条件有限，只留下几张素材，无法变成一个长期大规模的业务。 所以，对比下来最具市场潜力、当下发展也最为成熟的AI尽孝服务，还得是代...

JesperSohof/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Danaos Corporation ( DAC ) is one of the largest containership operators, across both container vessels and dry bulk vessels, in the world. The company works with some of the largest shipping companies in the world and leases out its ships for transport. With this comes high visibility on a multi-year basis for cash flow for the company. Even despite rate volatility, the company has largely produced a consistent level of both revenue and adjusted EBITDA over the years; however, the YTD run in the stock, for which it is now up nearly 38%, seems to be tied to a portion of the business that is currently too small to matter, and I view the run as unjustified. This creates a short opportunity for the stock. Business Profile Danaos is one of the leading containership operators. The company owns over 75 containerships ranging in size from 1,800 TEU to 13,100 TEU. The company also has 29 newbuildings, that is containerships that are currently under construction. The company owns 11 Capesize bulkers and 4 Newcastlemax newbuildings. With all of these new ships, the question naturally turns to the income potential. The company has already secured multi-year chartering agreements for 23 out of the 29 newbuildings. Investor Presentation The company has two primary segments: container vessels and Dry Bulk Vessels. A recent development for the company has been the re-entry into the dry bulk segment. The company bought 11 Capesize bulk carriers and has orders out for 4 Newcastlemax bulk carriers. These have a capacity of 211,000 DWT each and are expected to be delivered in 2028. The vast majority of revenue still comes from Container Vessels, at approximately 90%. The company has a $4.1 billion backlog that runs through 2038. It currently has coverage of 100% for this year, 88% for 2027, and 65% for 2028. This creates intense visibility on revenue and enables us to have a much better idea of what future free cash flow generation looks l...

Global stock markets are offering returns that in some cases are beating the S&P 500 Index , with technology companies comprising a small part of some strategies, according to Paul Quinsee at JPMorgan Asset Management. “International value was diversifying about as far away from technology and the Magnificent 7 as you can get,” Quinsee, global head of equities at the asset manager, said Thursday on Bloomberg Television’s Surveillance . “You can put together a portfolio of international value stocks” and pay about 11 times earnings for “decent companies.” Tech would be just 3% or 4% of that kind of basket, he said. Quinsee’s advice is a counterweight to the full-bore enthusiasm now propelling big tech stocks higher after the Iran war dragged the Nasdaq 100 Index in March to its worst monthly performance in a year. A basket of US semiconductor makers has soared nearly 60% since the beginning of April, buoyed by optimism over artificial intelligence and powering through concerns about accelerating inflation fueled by surging energy prices. Quinsee said clearly you “can’t ignore” the tech trade. At the same time, he noted international value stocks’ return of 40% in the last 12 months, with a 25% compound return over the last three years, is “actually significantly better than the S&P,” he said. “European banks went from uninvestable to solid companies,” he said. Meanwhile, energy stocks were “written off a year ago, and now earnings are booming.” While Quinsee said he doesn’t expect that level of performance to continue, “there are other ways to make money in global stock markets , and I think it’s at a time like this, when all the attention is in one place, it’s really worth remembering.” (This story was produced with the assistance of Bloomberg Automation.)
