The entire AI industry spent a week convinced DeepSeek had secretly launched V4. Reuters reported it. Developers debated it. OpenRouter usage charts broke. It was Xiaomi. A smartphone and electric vehicle company just shipped a 1-trillion-parameter model that topped the world's largest API aggregation platform, and nobody guessed the origin because the model was too good to be associated with a hardware company. The stealth launch as "Hunter Alpha" on March 11 was the most elegant product validation in recent AI history. No brand, no attribution, no expectations. Just raw performance. The model processed over 1 trillion tokens in 8 days. Developers organically chose it over every labeled frontier model on the platform. When Reuters tested the chatbot, it identified itself only as "a Chinese AI model primarily trained in Chinese" with a May 2025 knowledge cutoff, the exact same cutoff DeepSeek reports. The person behind this is Luo Fuli. Born in 1995. Eight papers at ACL as a graduate student at Peking University. Alibaba DAMO Academy. Then DeepSeek, where she co-developed V2 and contributed to R1. Lei Jun reportedly offered tens of millions of yuan to recruit her. She joined Xiaomi in November 2025. Four months later, she's shipping a model that benchmarks alongside Claude Sonnet 4.6 and GPT-5.2 at one-fifth the API cost. The detail that tells you everything about how this team operates: when Luo first experienced a complex agentic scaffold, she tried to convince the MiMo team to adopt it. They resisted. So she issued a mandate. Anyone on the team with fewer than 100 conversations with the system by tomorrow can quit. They all stayed. The imagination converted into research velocity. The architectural bets matter. Hybrid Attention for long-context efficiency. MTP inference for low latency. 1M context window. 42B activated parameters out of 1T total. These are infrastructure decisions optimized for agents that run autonomously for hours, not chatbots that answer one question at a time. Pricing: $1/$3 per million tokens up to 256K context. $2/$6 for 256K to 1M. Claude Sonnet 4.6 costs roughly 5x that. Xiaomi's shares rose 5.8% on the announcement. The real DeepSeek V4 still hasn't shipped. The model everyone mistook for it already has a trillion tokens of real-world usage data.

"Een ETF is 1 positie in je portfolio" Maar in feite heb je meerdere losse posities binnen die ETF. Leuk om met de nieuwe X-Ray functie van PDT te zien wat je echte blootstelling is aan alles. En ja, ik zit slechts in 9 beleggingsinstrumenten - maar in feite in 200+ posities.

Coalitieakkoord VVD, CDA en D66: “We stimuleren dat mensen hun spaargeld meer beleggen in de Nederlandse economie.” Dat was dus bullshit. Talk is cheap.

I'm sorry this happened, but if you take out an $80,000 loan to buy PayPal $PYPL calls, you deserve to lose all your money.

I’m telling you guys the next 3 months are about to get wild All the smart people will either try to go to one of the few crypto projects with sustainable revenue & growth or will leave crypto completely We saw 3 of the smartest ppl outright leave crypto in the last 48 hours
