我观察到AI领域发展迅速,竞争激烈。微软发布的AI代理能够像人类一样使用电脑,但这并不是本周最重要的新闻。OpenAI发布了五个大型语言模型,谷歌免费向数千万用户提供Gemini AI,Anthropic也更新了Claude。OpenAI收购Windsurf的举动显示了代码生成市场的竞争激烈。谷歌的Gemini 2.5 Flash模型允许开发者设置计算推理预算,其性能优于竞争对手。谷歌的VO2 AI视频生成器也十分强大。美国政府可能禁止DeepSeek,这反映了地缘政治因素对AI发展的影响。微软的Copilot Studio中的AI代理可以自动化网站和应用程序上的操作。谷歌向美国大学生免费提供Gemini Advanced,这体现了公司争夺用户的策略。Anthropic为Claude增加了Google Workspace集成和新的研究工具。OpenAI正在测试一个新的社交媒体平台。GPT 4.1模型具有100万个token的上下文窗口和更低的价格。OpenAI发布了O3和O4 Mini模型,这些模型能够进行推理并使用多种工具。
