Base App is suspected to have taken down Base Co-Creation Jesse

Comparative news. According to market news, Base App's official tweet is suspected to have taken advantage of Jesse, a number of cryptographic users posted screenshots of the robot and sparked discussion. This happened after Jesse's strategy changed in mid-July. At the time, Jesse publicly acknowledged that Base had failed to bet on on-chain social networking and creators' tokens, and handed over the leadership of the Base App to Coinbase, which was taken over by Cobie (Jordan Fish), and focused on building the Base Chain himself to promote it as a global financial blockchain. Since then, Base App has further moved towards a transaction-first, multi-chain direction.

Former NVIDIA research scientist Sanja Fidler and others co-founded VeedaAI to build physical AI simulated reality

In comparison, former NVIDIA research scientist Sanja Fidler published an article announcing the co-founding of VeedaAI with long-time collaborators ZgoJCIC and HuanLing6. The company is committed to building simulated reality for physical AI as a key infrastructure layer for interactive robot learning and evaluation, enabling robot intelligence to learn on a large scale through trial and error in a virtual world. Fidler said that in the real world, trial and error training for robots is unsafe, expensive, and time-consuming, and requires the use of simulated reality to achieve large-scale interactive learning. The team believes that the world model is a core technology that can learn from massive sensors and physical world data to generate simulated environments with quality, diversity, and physical realism. VeedaAI is supported by Khosla Ventures and Radical Ventures, and team members have years of experience in simulation, generative AI, 3D, robotics, and embodied intelligence.

Yushu Technology announced the promotion of “self-evolution of physical AI robots”

Comparatively, Wang Xingxing, founder and chairman of Yushu Technology, announced at the main forum of the 2026 World Robotics Conference that Yushu Technology promotes “physical AI robot self-evolution”, which is driven by large AI models, automatically searches for papers, writes control codes, verifies and deploys real machine tests in a simulation environment, and then uses AI and humans to jointly score feedback to form a closed loop iteration. Once the system is in operation, development efficiency and iteration speed can be greatly improved. Wang Xingxing mentioned that in the next decade, against the backdrop of the AI explosion, robots will evolve faster than expected. “This is a new starting point.” The critical flashpoint of the industry in the future will be when users bring robots to any unfamiliar environment and can complete about 80% of daily tasks through language or text instructions alone. This node is expected to arrive in 2-3 years at the earliest and 5-10 years at the slow speed. (every time)

Yu Shu Wang Xing: It may take 2 to 10 years for ChatGPT to become intelligent

Comparatively, at the 2026 World Robotics Conference, Wang Xingxing, founder and chairman of Yushu Technology, delivered a keynote speech entitled “From Exhibits to Products: The Next Ten Years of the Humanoid Robot Industry”. He said that in recent years, the company has continued to promote robots into our lives, including implementing applications in automobile factories, deploying simple tests in our own factories, and AI teams promoting robots to work at home, but since overall efficiency and versatility are still not high enough, they have not been promoted on a large scale. Wang Xingxing believes that moving towards an intelligent ChatGPT moment would ideally take 2 to 3 years, or 5 to 10 years longer. Reaching this point means that in 80% of unfamiliar scenes, robots can successfully complete about 80% of tasks through voice or text commands. Currently, the core challenge is aligning the input and output of a large AI model with a real robot.

China shipped more than 40,000 humanoid robots in the first half of the year, accounting for 97% of the world

Comparatively, Zhang Feng, Party Secretary of the China Electronics Society Council and Chairman of the China Humanoid Robot and Embodied Intelligence 100 People's Association, released the “2026 Humanoid Robot Industry Development Report” at the 2026 World Robotics Conference. The report analyzes the dimensions of industry overview, development trends, technical services, industrial chain, and product application scenarios, and focuses on comparing the development situation in the five countries of China, the United States, Germany, South Korea, and Japan. The report puts forward four core findings: technological innovation has entered a new stage of “cluster emergence”, and environmental sensing, planning and decision-making and motion control capabilities continue to be enhanced; the industrial chain has achieved a double leap in quality, efficiency and energy levels, and already has manufacturing capacity for the entire industry chain, from key chips and components to complete machines; industry applications have entered the stage of full expansion, shifting from small-batch production to normalized deployment and large-scale application; and ecological construction forms a new “four in one” paradigm for standards, talents, international cooperation and innovation infrastructure. According to the report, in the first half of 2026, China shipped more than 40,000 humanoid robots, and the global share further increased to 97%. Humanoid robots are seen as important carriers of embodying intelligence, and are expected to play a greater role in manufacturing, warehousing and logistics, emergency rescue, home services, and medical care.

Australian ASIC: Removed more than 3,100 crypto scams in a single fiscal year, and deep AI falsified it as the main modus operandi

In comparison, according to Bitcoin.com, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) revealed that more than 19,400 online scams were removed in the 2026 fiscal year (surging 182% year over year), including 3,106 cryptocurrency investment fraud platforms, an increase of about 30% over the previous fiscal year. ASIC pointed out that fraud gangs are making extensive use of generative AI technology to build a systemic fraud ecosystem: by falsifying deep falsification videos of famous people such as Australian Prime Minister Albanese and financial commentators, to use fake cryptographic trading robots and simultaneously build counterfeit media websites, AI-generated reviews, and false income dashboards to induce victims to continue to invest more, and the funds eventually flow to overseas criminal gangs. Only one high-profile person was fraudulently used, and the related losses have already exceeded 7.4 million Australian dollars.

Wang Xingxing of Yushu Technology: Currently, the efficiency of humanoid robots is relatively low, and they will be promoted on a large scale after the technology is refined

Comparatively, during the 2026 World Robotics Conference (WRC 2026), the founder and chairman of Yushu Technology delivered a keynote speech. Wang Xingxing answered on the spot why its products are not being promoted on a large scale in factories, homes, etc. “Actually, the main reason is that the current overall efficiency and its capabilities are still insufficient. Simply put, even though our robots can do some work at present, their efficiency is actually lower than that of humans.” In addition, he also said that now when humanoid robots have some new tasks, they have to be re-trained, which makes them relatively less efficient. “Therefore, we still want to make the technology more general, have more accurate capabilities, and then advance it on a large scale in specific scenarios.” (Financial Services Association)
