Meituan Releases 1.6 Trillion Parameter AI Trained Without Nvidia GPUs

China's Meituan has released open weights for LongCat-2.5, a 1.6-trillion-parameter AI model it says was trained entirely on Chinese chips without Nvidia GPUs. It's built for autonomous agents tackling long coding tasks.

Details:

• About 48 billion parameters activate per token, thanks to its mixture-of-experts design. It handles text, images and video, with an API context window of 1 million tokens at once

• Meituan reports 88.4 on Terminal Bench 2.1, close to Claude Opus 5's 89.1. On the harder v4.0 test it scores 38.5 versus Opus 5's 53.9. These scores have not yet been verified

• The weights are f-r-e-e to use commercially under an MIT license. Meituan offers chat and public API; its example self-hosting setup uses 194 Huawei Ascend chips and a 4-bit version

The launch shows Chinese chips can support a massive open-weight AI model. But benchmark claims need outside testing, while self-hosting stays costly.

Elon Musk Joins 115,000 Signers Demanding Jensen Huang's Nvidia Return

Elon Musk is backing a growing bid to bring Jensen Huang back as Nvidia CEO. The petition passed 115,000 signatures on Saturday and topped 130,000 Sunday, intensifying pressure on Nvidia after Huang's sudden resignation.

Details:

• The campaign lists 5,965 current Nvidia employees, 1,108 former workers, and 63,063 shareholders among the signers. Identities and affiliations are self-reported, not verified

• Musk joins Replit's Amjad Masad, Epic Games' Tim Sweeney and Y Combinator's Garry Tan. They want Huang reinstated while an independent probe runs, with a fair hearing

• Huang resigned amid scrutiny of reported affairs and potential intelligence concerns. Nvidia named finance chief Colette Kress interim CEO while its board searches for a successor

The petition is gaining momentum, but signatures are unverified and Nvidia has not signaled a reversal. Will Nvidia's board rethink Huang's departure?

AI Workflow

How to Find Subscriptions You’re Wasting Money On

You may be paying for tools you barely use without realizing it. This workflow lets Claude track your subscription receipts, catch price increases, and show you which recurring charges deserve another look.

1. Create a receipt inbox

   In Gmail, create a label called Receipts.

   Add filters for subscription emails from Stripe, PayPal, Apple, Google Play, SaaS tools, or terms like “receipt,” “invoice,” and “payment confirmation.”

   This gives Claude one clean place to check.

2. Connect Gmail to Claude

   Connect Gmail from Claude’s connectors.

   Claude can then search and read the receipt emails it needs.

   Keep the workflow focused on the Receipts label instead of your whole inbox.

3. Build a subscription ledger

   Ask Claude to create a ledger containing:

   • Vendor

   • Charge date

   • Amount

   • Billing cycle

   • Gmail message ID

   • Status

   • Notes

   The message ID helps Claude avoid processing the same receipt twice.

   For the first run, let it scan older receipts and build your starting list.

4. Mark what you actually use

   Review the ledger once and mark each subscription:

   Keep / Review / Paused / Cancelled

   Add short notes when useful, such as:

   “Just needed for Project X.”

   or

   “Already paying for a similar tool.”

   This gives Claude context when it reviews future charges.

5. Schedule the weekly audit

   Create a weekly scheduled task in Claude and use:

   “Search Gmail label:Receipts for receipts from the last 8 days.

   Extract the vendor, amount, charge date, billing cycle, and Gmail message ID.

   Skip receipts already recorded in my subscription ledger.

   Add new charges, then flag:

   - New recurring subscriptions

   - Price increases

   - Possible duplicate tools

   - Charges marked Paused or Cancelled

   - Tools that appear to serve the same purpose

   Calculate my current monthly recurring total.

   Finish with: New Charges, Monthly Total, Possible Waste, Price Changes, and Subscriptions to Review.”

6. Check the weekly report

   Claude can give you a simple report such as:

   Monthly subscriptions: $347

   Price increase: Tool A — $19 → $29

   Possible duplicate: Tool B + Tool C

   Review: Tool D — still charging after being marked Paused

   You decide what stays and what gets cancelled.

Note: Add the purpose of each subscription in the Notes column. Claude can then spot tools doing almost the same job.
