1. Construction of Megascience Research Infrastructure for Human Cell Lineage Has Been Launched

The National Major Scientific and Technological Infrastructure during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, the Megascience Research Infrastructure for the Human Cell Lineage, has officially started its construction. This infrastructure will take the research and development of innovative technologies and devices such as sample preservation with viability, spatial multi-omics, and advanced imaging as its core, integrate cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, map a dynamic cell atlas covering the three dimensions of development, disease, and aging, build a large digital cell AI model, and give rise to a new paradigm for biomedical research.

2. First Soar into Sky, Then Delve into Ground! "Space Seeds" Usher in Harvest Period

The "space seeds" carried by the Shijian-19 satellite have been harvested at the National Southern Crop Breeding and Seed Production Base. These "space seeds" are high-quality crop seeds meticulously selected. They were carried into space by the satellite and underwent genetic mutations in the special space environment. After returning to the ground, they have been used for breeding and screening. The unique sunlight and heat conditions in Hainan province can shorten the breeding cycle and improve the breeding efficiency.

3. DeepSeek V3 Model Update: Programming Capability Greatly Improved

DeepSeek released the update of its V3 model on March 24th, which focuses on enhancing programming capabilities and adopts the more lenient MIT open - source protocol. The new V3 version has 685 billion parameters. It performs nearly as well as Claude 3.7 in multi - round conversations and front - end coding. Besides, the code quality of the animated weather card generated by V3 is significantly better than that of the previous - generation R1. The change of the MIT license allows commercial integration, providing more flexibility for developers.

4. Ant Group Trains AI Model with Domestic - made Chips, Reducing Costs by 20%

Ant Group has successfully used domestic - made chips from companies including Alibaba and Huawei, combined with the Mixture - of - Experts (MoE) machine - learning method, to train artificial intelligence models, reducing costs by approximately 20%. Test results show that this technology can match the performance of Nvidia's H800 chips.

5. Huawei Pura 70 Series’ Activation Exceeded 11 Million

The activation volume of the entire HUAWEI Pura 70 series mobile phones has exceeded 11 million units. Among them, the activation volume of  Pura 70 standard - edition and the Pura 70 Beidou Satellite Message - version has exceeded 5 million units, and that of the Pro - model has exceeded 3 million units. This series supports the HarmonyOS 4.2 system and can be upgraded to the pure - blood HarmonyOS version in the future.
