As an indie software business, we're constantly faced with a tough question: Do you double down on what s working? Or hedge your bets and build something new?
The past year at Magic Lasso Adblock, we asked ourselves that very question.
Beijing is investing billions into a national AI fund and its broader AI+ initiative to embed artificial intelligence across the entire economy. Backed by strong state support, domestic chip production, and lower manufacturing costs, China can scale AI solutions rapidly and analysts say it s on track to surpass the U.S. in the race for AI dominance. (IMO, it already happened.)
And one of the examples is these 2 news items I read today: 1) Alibaba unveils Qwen3.5 as China s chatbot race shifts to AI agents
2) and this one is even more important: Alibaba has launched RynnBrain, an open-source AI model designed to power robots that can see, think, and act in real-world environments.
