SenseTime's Lin Dahua: AI Progress Doesn't Depend Only on Stacking Large Models

Lin Dahua, co-founder and chief scientist of SenseTime, said at CITIC Securities' 33rd Investor Forum that the key to AI progress is not just scaling up models, but also smarter ways of building them. He emphasized that the "intelligence density" of data determines learning outcomes, which is why SenseTime developed a native multimodal model that integrates multimodal capabilities into the architecture and training from the very beginning. Lin Dahua expects embodied intelligence to accelerate over the next one to two years, and SenseTime is also continuing to explore world models.

SWANCOR Advanced Materials posted a net loss of 422 million yuan in the first three quarters: the new materials business was profitable, while investment in the robotics business dragged down profit

In the first three quarters of 2026, SWANCOR Advanced Materials reported a net loss attributable to shareholders of 422 million yuan, down 796.94% year on year, mainly due to a substantial increase in R&D and marketing investment in its consumer-grade embodied intelligent robotics business. The new materials business posted net profit attributable to shareholders of 63.5181 million yuan in the first three quarters, up 4.91% year on year; the robotics business invested 360 million yuan in R&D and has not yet recognized revenue. Qiyuan Q1 and Qiyuan T1 were released and went on sale on September 20, with deliveries beginning in October.

Zhiyuan's Peng Zhihui: Physical AI Still in Early Stage, Proposes Worken Effective Intelligent Work-Hour Framework

At the 2026 Zhiyuan Innovation Day, Peng Zhihui, co-founder, president and CTO of Zhiyuan, said that physical AI is still in an early stage; Zhiyuan has passed the first stage of possessing a stable, low-cost robot body and is advancing the second stage of deployment in vertical segmented scenarios. He proposed the Worken (effective intelligent work-hour) measurement framework, with the formula: number of active robots × autonomous working hours × output efficiency ratio, hoping to bill by work-hours in the future. In the first half of 2026, Zhiyuan's revenue was close to 2 billion yuan and it delivered 9,700 robots; in September, its cumulative output of general-purpose AI robots reached 20,000 units. On the same day, it released the embodied intelligence foundation model GO-3 Preview, the AHA3 hardware platform and the industrial robot G2 Max.

The Two Underlying Logics Behind Liang Wenfeng's 280 Billion Yuan Fortune

DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng, with a net worth of 280 billion yuan, debuted on the Hurun Rich List at No. 7 nationwide. The two logics he emphasized at a closed-door meeting were: proactively open-sourcing core capabilities so the entire industry grows on his foundation, and, amid the boom of wrapper monetization at the application layer, restraining short-term gains and relentlessly focusing on infrastructure. Sources say he has recently been intensively catching up on embodied intelligence in Beijing and has begun envisioning the next collision between models and the physical world.

Google DeepMind releases the world model Genie 4, supporting real-time text-based scene changes and native ambient sound

Google DeepMind has officially released the world model Genie 4, which supports real-time text-based scene changes, comes with native ambient sound and interactive dialogue, and has Gemini 3.8 Flash serving as the behind-the-scenes director. Unlike pre-rendered video models, Genie 4 simulates physical collisions in real time as the player acts within the scene, and a single simulation can remain continuously stable for about two minutes. The author believes its real purpose is to provide a low-cost physical training ground for embodied agents, but it is currently still a research preview available to only a few testers, and details drift over time.

Multi-theme resonance: a breakdown of the upward logic of the humanoid robot sector

This week (October 19–October 23), the humanoid robot sector rose on multi-theme resonance: the Humanoid Robot Index gained 11.48%, the Unitree Robotics Index gained 13.65%, and the Embodied Intelligence Index gained 10.65%. Unitree Technology hit the 20CM limit up on October 23 and rose 46.14% for the week. Catalysts include Tesla's third-generation Optimus being ready for large-scale mass production, OpenAI announcing its entry into humanoid robots with a prototype demo expected in 2027, Google DeepMind releasing the general physical reasoning model Gemini 4 Argon, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stating that in the first half of the year complete-machine products exceeded 400 models and output surpassed 40,000 units. Brokerages believe 2026 will be a key window for mass-production validation and scenario deployment, but the technology route has not yet converged.
