“AI新人”明码标价、批量出售的热闹里，如何留住用户也是巨头们的一道难题。 AI应用春节的拉新大战打得火热，2月8日，记者发现，在闲鱼平台，新上架了不少“千问助力”“元宝红包助力”等相关链接，薅AI补贴成了一门新生意，“AI新人”正被批量出售。 2月6日，千问发起30亿“春节请客”计划，用户首次参与活动可获得一张25元的外卖“免单卡”（奶茶、零售等部分范围使用），每成功邀请一位新用户，可额外获得一张免单卡。许多为了获得免单卡“求新人”的用户让闲鱼商家看到了商机，“千问新人”开始被批量出售。 记者查看闲鱼平台页面信息发现，目前已有1.8万人在闲鱼搜过“千问新人”，9.3万人搜索“千问邀请”。 一位闲鱼商家上架的商品链接显示“千问新用户助力10个起拍”，售价100元，商家称用户下单即可收到10个新用户助力，获得十张免单卡。千问规则页面显示，每位用户可成功邀请的新用户数量上限为20位，一些闲鱼商家直接挂出了“接千问助力，拉满20张”的链接，历史成交价格在34元-150元不等。除了手握大量账号的“黄牛”，其中也不乏一些个人用户，上架自己的新人账户名额，“只此一件”，大多链接上架当天便售出。 从闲鱼历史成交价及新上架的“千问新人”标价来看，记者观察到，“千问新人”目前仍在涨价。2月6日，千问发起红包活动当天，一个“千问新人”的成交均价通常在3元-4元，而2月8日，成交均价已集中在4元-6元，2月8日中午新发布的链接中，已有许多涨价至8元-10元，甚至已有商家将一个千问新人的价格抬升至18元，“千问新人”似乎变得更为紧俏了。 同时，也存在着大量标价0.01元、1元助力千问的链接，一些页面评论显示，部分商家只挂链接不“发货”，部分消费者受骗。 AI春节大战也在闲鱼开打。除千问外，“元宝红包助力”也在闲鱼“热卖”中，页面信息显示，元宝红包完成三人助力的价格大多在1元-4元之间，一个商家挂出“元宝红包1.2元三次助力”，已售210件。 直接催生出一门闲鱼新生意的背后，AI春节大战“烧钱”带来的用户吸引力可见一斑。2月6日，“千问春节30亿大免单”活动上线9小时后，阿里便宣布千问活动订单已超过1000 万单。过去一周，随着元宝发红包、千问送奶茶，苹果应用商店免费下载榜的榜首位置在豆包、元宝、千问间交替改变，目前阿里千问仍居于APPstore榜首。 伴随着大手笔投入，AI应用们打响了马年...

Nvidia has a track record of defying the odds, but has the company's growth peaked? The past few years have offered investors a lesson in volatility. Artificial intelligence (AI) was hailed as the biggest technological innovation of a generation, and many investors wanted to get in on the ground floor. This has fueled wild swings in technology stocks, as the Nasdaq Composite has climbed to new heights, fallen into a bear market, and soared back to record heights -- all within the past year. As the de facto standard-bearer of the AI revolution, Nvidia (NVDA +8.01%) has been equally volatile. The stock has surged 780% over the past three years (as of this writing), but is also more than 10% off its peak. The company is scheduled to report results in less than three weeks, and it's no exaggeration to say Wall Street will be sitting on the edge of its seat, looking for clues about where AI goes from here. Nvidia has a lot riding on its upcoming financial report, and shareholders are looking for evidence about what the future may hold. The company is scheduled to release its 2026 fourth-quarter financial report after the market close on Feb. 25. Fortunately, data is piling up that helps answer the quintessential investing question: Is Nvidia stock a buy ahead of its crucial financial report? Let's see what the evidence suggests. I've looked at clouds from both sides now Nvidia's graphics processing units (GPUs) supply the computational horsepower that underpins advances in AI. However, the sheer magnitude of the data and the computing resources needed limit the most advanced models to a select few companies -- nearly all of which are Nvidia customers. Recent quarterly results from some of the biggest provide valuable insight into the state of AI, and the evidence is conclusive. For its fiscal 2026 second quarter (ended Dec. 31), Microsoft (MSFT +1.90%) continued to invest heavily to support its AI ambitions. The company spent $88.2 billion in 2025 and is on track to exce...

Controversial remarks in Bangladesh by a politician who questioned women’s ability to perform jobs because of their child-bearing role have caused an uproar ahead of the general election in a country where female workers form the spine of its mainstay garment sector Shafiqur Rahman, the chief of the Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami, also ruled out the possibility of a woman assuming the Islamist party’s top post. In a TV interview, Rahman said women with babies should be given the option of fewer working hours after maternity leave. Advertisement “Maternity leave is only for six months. It is not sufficient, we feel. A child never grows up in six months,” he told Al Jazeera last week, adding that a woman should be given such a choice to enable her to continue in a job without causing hardship. In the same interview, he said women should bear children due to their physical attributes, but a woman’s parenting responsibility would limit her ability to lead his party. Advertisement The interview followed a recent social media post by him in which he also referred to the need for curbs to be placed on working women. He later deleted the post after a backlash from students and women’s groups.

Francesca Lollobrigida brought the house down at the Milano Ice Park and then searched out her son to share her joy Even before the final pairing of the women’s 3,000m speed skating had finished, two-year-old Tommaso was being hurried towards the middle of the track, where his mother had just broken the Olympic record and was on the verge of winning gold on her 35th birthday. When the final pairing of Joy Beune and Isabelle Weidemann had failed to beat Francesca Lollobrigida’s phenomenal time, the Italian sprinted through the bowels of the stadium to fetch her son. Still basking in the glow of an excellent opening ceremony and the thrill of two medalists in the men’s downhill skiing earlier in the day, the hosts celebrated a new star. Lollobrigida, the silver medalist from Beijing in 2022, struck gold for the first time in her fourth Olympics. She brought the house down at the Milano Ice Park as she crossed the line in a time of 54.28sec, knocking two and a half seconds off Irene Schouten’s record from 2022. Continue reading...

Cybercriminals, the shadowy online figures often depicted in Hollywood movies as hooded villains capable of wiping millions of pounds off the value of businesses at a keystroke, are not usually known for their candour. But in a sixth-form college in Manchester this week, two former hackers gave the young people gathered an honest appraisal of what living a life of internet crime really looks like. The teenagers in the room are listening intently, but the day-to-day internecine disputes they hear about is not the stuff of screenplays. “It’s just people getting into these online dramas and they’re swatting and doxing each other and getting people to throw bricks through their windows,” one of the hackers says. If the language sounds unfamiliar, it should – “swatting” and “doxing” involve people outing each other online by posting their genuine identities – but their message is clear: though cybercrime may seem alluring, the reality is anything but. View image in fullscreen Conor Freeman was jailed for nearly three years in 2020 for his role in a $2m cryptocurrency theft. Photograph: Gary Calton/The Guardian The hackers are former members of a sprawling cybercrime ecosystem dubbed “The Com”, and they’re here for a very particular reason – to urge talented teenagers to use their gaming and coding skills for the good. The talk is part of an initiative backed by the Co-op, which suffered a debilitating hack in April last year. The retailer has teamed up with The Hacking Games, a startup that identifies talented gamers to test companies’ IT systems, which wants youngsters to use their skills to help companies fight back against criminal hackers. Conor Freeman, 26, from Dublin, was jailed for just under three years in 2020 for his role in a $2m cryptocurrency theft and spoke to students at Connell Co-op College near Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium last week. Freeman became a part of the Com – short for “community” – after being groomed online by an older teenager while pla...

China’s long-term growth trajectory will depend on the introduction of market reforms, and the country’s potential growth rate could fall to about 2.5 per cent in the coming years unless action is taken, a prominent Chinese economist has warned. “Without a strong turnaround in total factor productivity and a meaningful expansion in household consumption, it will be difficult for China’s economic growth to reach 4 per cent or higher,” said Zhou Tianyong, former deputy head of the Central Party School’s Institute of International Strategic Studies in Beijing. The warning came as Beijing prepares to unveil its next five-year plan and economic policy priorities for 2026, with policymakers striving to address a series of challenges at home and abroad and boost China’s long-term development by accelerating innovation and raising domestic consumption Advertisement “Our estimates for the 15th five-year plan period [from 2026 to 2030] and the decade beyond put potential growth at around 2.5 per cent,” said Zhou, who is now head of the National Economic Engineering Laboratory at Dongbei University of Finance and Economics, in an article posted on February 1 on the social media platform WeChat. “Potential growth” is an academic term that measures a country’s long-term and sustainable productivity by calculating the inputs of labour, capital, innovation, entrepreneurs and other production factors. Advertisement Zhou pointed to mounting supply-side pressures, as well as significant uncertainty on the demand side, including over fixed-asset investment, household spending and goods exports

Technology (27%) and financial services (21%) dominate the sector mix, while top positions include Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Samsung Electronics, and Tencent.

SPGM, by contrast, blends exposure to both developed and emerging markets, with holdings across technology (26%), financial services (17%), and industrials (12%). Its largest positions — Nvidia, Apple, and Microsoft — anchor the ETF in global blue chips.
