Rana Safvi's visit to Mohammad Barkatullah's grave in San Francisco highlights the fading memory of the revolutionary who co-founded India's first government-in-exile. Despite his significant contributions to India's freedom struggle, his name is being debated for removal from Bhopal University, his only namesake institution.
China strongly opposes the US placing prominent Chinese companies like BYD, Alibaba, and Baidu on a military firm list, stating it disregards agreements from the Trump-Xi summit and constitutes an unjustifiable suppression of Chinese enterprises.
China has voiced strong disapproval of the US decision to blacklist several major Chinese technology and automotive companies, citing unfair treatment on the global stage. Beijing has warned of resolute retaliation if these measures are not withdrawn.
The US Department of Defense has designated 54 Chinese companies, including tech giants Alibaba and Baidu, as "Chinese military companies." The designation, effective June 30, bars the Pentagon from procuring from these firms, though immediate operational impact is expected to be limited as most do not directly sell to the US military. Several companies, including Baidu and Alibaba, have disputed the designation.

Baidu's Miaoda app, an AI-powered application development platform, has launched on iOS, completing its mobile coverage. Users can now generate, develop, debug, and publish apps using voice or text commands on both iPhone and Android devices, lowering the barrier to app creation.
Baidu's Apollo Go experienced a large-scale operational disruption in Wuhan on March 31, with nearly 100 autonomous vehicles suddenly stopping. This led to a government-mandated review and a temporary halt on new permits for self-driving vehicles, impacting industry expansion plans.
Baidu's new PaddleOCR-VL-1.6 model, derived from the Ernie large model, has achieved a 96.33% accuracy on OmniDocBench v1.6, surpassing competitors and ranking first globally in complex document understanding and real-world scenario parsing.

Baidu's AI businesses, including AI cloud, applications, and marketing, became its primary revenue driver in Q1, with revenue surging 49% year-on-year to 13.6 billion yuan. AI cloud alone grew 79% to 8.8 billion yuan, signaling AI's core role in the company's strategy.
ERNIE 5.1 hits the top of Chinese AI leaderboards while spending a fraction of what rivals do. Baidu calls it a "parameter efficiency" leap.

WeRide boss Tony Han Xu believes the first fully autonomous cars may arrive on streets by 2035, as global carmakers and tech firms accelerate the application of self-driving technologies despite roadblocks. The latest setback came when Chinese regulators stepped in after an incident in Wuhan on March 31. Authorities scaled back the issuance of new autonomous driving licences after a system failure on March 31 involving Baidu’s Apollo Go fleet, which left passengers stranded and disrupted traffic...
Der Systemausfall bei Baidu, der 100 Robotaxis in Wuhan stilllegte, hat Folgen: Vorerst gibt es keine neuen Lizenzen für autonome Fahrzeuge in China.
China is tightening licensing requirements for robotaxis after a March 31 system failure involving Baidu's Apollo Go fleet left passengers stranded during evening rush hour in Wuhan, disrupting traffic for hours. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology convened a meeting with transport authorities urging the industry to conduct self-inspections and strengthen safety oversight. While curbs do not amount to a complete halt, new approvals for autonomous driving licenses will be harder to secure as regulators shift focus from rapid expansion to safety and stability.
China has suspended new licenses for autonomous vehicles following an incident last month in Wuhan where dozens of Baidu robotaxis suddenly stopped in traffic, causing chaos. The restrictions prevent companies from adding new driverless cars to fleets, expanding into new cities, or launching new test projects. It remains unclear when regulators will resume issuing licenses. This is at least the second time regulators have intervened after a Baidu-related incident, and the company's Wuhan operations remain paused while authorities investigate.
