🤖 WAIC 2026 Shanghai Conference Results

The conference confirmed the transition of AI from pure theory to real-world industrial implementation. Key innovations include Huawei's Atlas 950 SuperPoD supernode, the agentic operating system Step Agent OS, and MiniMax's M3 multimodal model.

🌍 The technological gap between the US and China in the LLM sector has narrowed to 2.7%. China is prepared to build massive clusters even amidst chip shortages.

👤 AI is becoming an "agentic" system — a full-fledged OS or robot capable of controlling machinery.
