The demographic includes 40 million day-wage factory workers and 84 million platform economy workers performing deliveries and ride-share driving. Factory gig workers average 26 years old, are 80% male, and 75-80% single and childless. These workers face systemic exclusions from urban benefits including healthcare, schooling and property ownership due to lacking urban hukou residency permits. China's Supreme Court ruled in August that workers can claim compensation from employers denying benefits, though enforcement mechanisms remain unclear. Economic data shows retail sales growth at yearly lows, continuing property price declines, and rising urban unemployment. Analysts project GDP growth potentially falling to 3% in the third quarter. Manufacturing hubs report increasing numbers of young workers sleeping in parks and under overpasses between temporary jobs.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=China's+Future+Rests+on+200+Million+Precarious+Workers%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F19%2F0150205%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F19%2F0150205%2Fchinas-future-rests-on-200-million-precarious-workers%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/19/0150205/chinas-future-rests-on-200-million-precarious-workers?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23799388&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-19T02:00:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>china</dc:subject><slash:department>flexible-until-it-breaks</slash:department><slash:section>slashdot</slash:section><slash:comments>3</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>3,3,2,2,0,0,0</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/19/019243/intel-says-blockbuster-nvidia-deal-doesnt-change-its-own-roadmap?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>Intel Says Blockbuster Nvidia Deal Doesn't Change Its Own Roadmap</title><link>https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/19/019243/intel-says-blockbuster-nvidia-deal-doesnt-change-its-own-roadmap?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>If you're wondering what effect Intel's blockbuster deal with Nvidia will have on its existing product roadmaps, Intel has one message for you: it won't. PCWorld: "We're not discussing specific roadmaps at this time, but the collaboration is complementary to Intel's roadmap and Intel will continue to have GPU product offerings," an Intel spokesman told my colleague, Brad Chacos, earlier today. I heard similar messaging from other Intel representatives. Nvidia's $5 billion investment in Intel, as well as Nvidia's plans to supply RTX graphics chiplets to Intel for use in Intel's CPUs, have two major potential effects: first, it could rewrite Intel's mobile roadmap for laptop chips, because of the additional capabilities provided by those RTX chiplets. Second, the move threatens Intel's ongoing development of its Arc graphics cores, including standalone discrete GPUs as well as integrated chips. We're still not convinced that Arc's future will be left unscathed, in part because Intel's claim that it will "continue" to have GPU product offerings sounds a bit wishy-washy. But Intel sounds much more definitive on the former point, in that the mobile roadmap that you're familiar with will remain in place.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Intel+Says+Blockbuster+Nvidia+Deal+Doesn't+Change+Its+Own+Roadmap%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F19%2F019243%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F19%2F019243%2Fintel-says-blockbuster-nvidia-deal-doesnt-change-its-own-roadmap%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/19/019243/intel-says-blockbuster-nvidia-deal-doesnt-change-its-own-roadmap?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23799368&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-19T01:09:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>intel</dc:subject><slash:department>aftermath</slash:department><slash:section>slashdot</slash:section><slash:comments>7</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>7,6,6,4,2,0,0</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1934251/google-adds-gemini-to-chrome-desktop-browser-for-us-users?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>Google Adds Gemini To Chrome Desktop Browser for US Users</title><link>https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1934251/google-adds-gemini-to-chrome-desktop-browser-for-us-users?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>Google has added Gemini features to Chrome for all desktop users in the US browsing in English following a limited release to paying subscribers in May.

The feature will suggest prompts based on webpage content but won't replace standard search functionality. Chrome on Android already includes Gemini features.

The suit alleges the companies knowingly allow ticket brokers to use multiple accounts to circumvent purchase limits and acquire thousands of tickets per event for resale at higher prices. The FTC claims this practice violates the Better Online Ticket Sales Act and generates hundreds of millions in revenue through a "triple dip" fee structure -- collecting fees on initial broker purchases, then from both brokers and consumers on secondary market sales. FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson cited President Trump's March executive order requiring federal protection against ticketing practices. The lawsuit arrives one month after the FTC sued Maryland broker Key Investment Group over Taylor Swift tour price-gouging and follows the Department of Justice's 2024 monopoly suit against Live Nation.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=FTC+and+Seven+States+Sue+Ticketmaster+Over+Alleged+Coordination+With+Scalpers%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fyro.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F181207%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyro.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F181207%2Fftc-and-seven-states-sue-ticketmaster-over-alleged-coordination-with-scalpers%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://yro.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/181207/ftc-and-seven-states-sue-ticketmaster-over-alleged-coordination-with-scalpers?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23799032&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T20:01:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>business</dc:subject><slash:department>scalpers-best-friend</slash:department><slash:section>yro</slash:section><slash:comments>39</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>39,37,36,35,9,3,2</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1335216/samsung-brings-ads-to-us-fridges?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>Samsung Brings Ads To US Fridges</title><link>https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1335216/samsung-brings-ads-to-us-fridges?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>An anonymous reader shares a report: A software update rolling out to Samsung's Family Hub refrigerators in the US is putting ads on the fridges for the first time.

Reuters: The rare update from the Hangzhou-based company -- the first estimate it has released of R1's training costs -- appeared in a peer-reviewed article in the academic journal Nature published on Wednesday. DeepSeek's release of what it said were lower-cost AI systems in January prompted global investors to dump tech stocks as they worried the new models could threaten the dominance of AI leaders including Nvidia. Since then, the company and founder Liang Wenfeng have largely disappeared from public view, apart from pushing out a few new product updates. [...] The Nature article, which listed Liang as one of the co-authors, said DeepSeek's reasoning-focused R1 model cost $294,000 to train and used 512 Nvidia H800 chips. Sam Altman, CEO of U.S. AI giant OpenAI, said in 2023 that what he called "foundational model training" had cost "much more" than $100 million - though his company has not given detailed figures for any of its releases.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=China's+DeepSeek+Says+Its+Hit+AI+Model+Cost+Just+%24294%2C000+To+Train%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F1315238%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F1315238%2Fchinas-deepseek-says-its-hit-ai-model-cost-just-294000-to-train%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1315238/chinas-deepseek-says-its-hit-ai-model-cost-just-294000-to-train?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798810&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T18:02:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>ai</dc:subject><slash:department>landmark-milestones</slash:department><slash:section>slashdot</slash:section><slash:comments>28</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>28,28,25,22,4,0,0</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://yro.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/0449219/amazon-violated-online-shopper-protection-law-judge-rules-ahead-of-prime-signup-trial?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>Amazon Violated Online Shopper Protection Law, Judge Rules Ahead of Prime Signup Trial</title><link>https://yro.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/0449219/amazon-violated-online-shopper-protection-law-judge-rules-ahead-of-prime-signup-trial?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>Amazon violated consumer protection law by gathering Prime subscribers' billing information before disclosing the service's terms, a judge ruled on Wednesday, handing the U.S. Federal Trade Commission a partial win.

The FTC is poised to argue that the online retailer signed up tens of millions of customers for Prime without their consent, and thwarted tens of millions of cancellation bids through complex cancellation methods. The agency says those actions violated the Restore Online Shoppers Confidence Act (ROSCA).<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Amazon+Violated+Online+Shopper+Protection+Law%2C+Judge+Rules+Ahead+of+Prime+Signup+Trial%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fyro.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F0449219%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyro.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F0449219%2Famazon-violated-online-shopper-protection-law-judge-rules-ahead-of-prime-signup-trial%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://yro.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/0449219/amazon-violated-online-shopper-protection-law-judge-rules-ahead-of-prime-signup-trial?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798540&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T17:01:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>business</dc:subject><slash:department>holding-to-account</slash:department><slash:section>yro</slash:section><slash:comments>17</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>17,16,16,16,8,5,2</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://apple.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1210236/599-macbook-with-iphone-chip-expected-to-enter-production-this-year?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>$599 MacBook With iPhone Chip Expected To Enter Production This Year</title><link>https://apple.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1210236/599-macbook-with-iphone-chip-expected-to-enter-production-this-year?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>An anonymous reader shares a report: Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo today reiterated that a more affordable MacBook powered by an iPhone processor is slated to enter mass production in the fourth quarter of 2025, which points towards a late 2025 or early 2026 launch. Kuo was first to reveal that Apple is allegedly planning a more affordable MacBook. In late June, he said the laptop would have around a 13-inch display, and an A18 Pro chip. Kuo said potential color options include silver, blue, pink, and yellow, so the laptop could come in bright colors, like 2021-and-newer models of the 24-inch iMac. This time around, he only mentioned the MacBook will have an unspecific iPhone processor. Apple recently introduced the A19 Pro chip, which has 12GB of RAM, so it will be interesting to see if the lower-cost MacBook uses that chip instead. The entire Mac lineup has started with at least 16GB of RAM since last year, with the only option with 8GB being the MacBook with an M1 chip, which is sold exclusively by Walmart for $599.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=%24599+MacBook+With+iPhone+Chip+Expected+To+Enter+Production+This+Year%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fapple.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F1210236%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fapple.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F1210236%2F599-macbook-with-iphone-chip-expected-to-enter-production-this-year%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://apple.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1210236/599-macbook-with-iphone-chip-expected-to-enter-production-this-year?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798744&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T16:01:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>macbook</dc:subject><slash:department>cheaper-macbook-incoming</slash:department><slash:section>apple</slash:section><slash:comments>86</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>86,85,79,75,17,7,2</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://news.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/0452250/how-americans-view-ai-and-its-impact-on-people-and-society?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>How Americans View AI and Its Impact on People and Society</title><link>https://news.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/0452250/how-americans-view-ai-and-its-impact-on-people-and-society?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>Key takeaways from a new survey by Pew Research: 1. Americans are much more concerned than excited about the increased use of AI in daily life, with a majority saying they want more control over how AI is used in their lives.2. Far larger shares say AI will erode than improve people's ability to think creatively and form meaningful relationships.3. At the same time, a majority is open to letting AI assist them with day-to-day tasks and activities.4. Most Americans don't support AI playing a role in personal matters such as religion or matchmaking. They're more open to AI for heavy data analysis, such as for weather forecasting and developing new medicines.5. Americans feel strongly that it's important to be able to tell if pictures, videos or text were made by AI or by humans. Yet many don't trust their own ability to spot AI-generated content.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=How+Americans+View+AI+and+Its+Impact+on+People+and+Society%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fnews.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F0452250%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fnews.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F18%2F0452250%2Fhow-americans-view-ai-and-its-impact-on-people-and-society%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://news.slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/0452250/how-americans-view-ai-and-its-impact-on-people-and-society?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798550&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>msmash</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T15:01:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>ai</dc:subject><slash:department>closer-look</slash:department><slash:section>news</slash:section><slash:comments>47</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>47,47,41,38,12,4,2</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1226210/nvidia-to-invest-5-billion-in-intel?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>Nvidia To Invest $5 Billion in Intel</title><link>https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/18/1226210/nvidia-to-invest-5-billion-in-intel?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>Nvidia has agreed to invest $5 billion in its struggling rival Intel [non-paywalled source] as part of a deal to develop new chips for PCs and data centres, the latest reordering of the tech industry spurred by AI. From a report: The deal comes a month after the US government agreed to take a 10 per cent stake in Intel, as Donald Trump's administration looks to secure the future of American chip manufacturing. However, the pair's announcement makes no reference to Nvidia using Intel's foundry to produce its chips. Intel, which has struggled to gain a foothold in the booming AI server market, lost its crown as the world's most valuable chipmaker to Nvidia in 2020. On Thursday Jensen Huang, Nvidia's chief executive, hailed a "historic collaboration" and "a fusion of two world-class platforms," combining its graphics processing units, which dominate the market for AI infrastructure, with Intel's general-purpose chips.

The average FICO score slipped to 715 in April from 717 a year earlier, marking the second consecutive year-over-year drop, according to a report released Tuesday by Fair Isaac Corp. The average score dropped three points to 687 in 2009. Gen Z borrowers saw the largest drop, not only this year, but of any age group since 2020, with their average score falling three points to 676, the Montana-based creator of the FICO credit score said. FICO scores are a measure of consumer credit risk and are frequently used by US banks to assess whether to provide loans. The scores typically range from 300 to 850. The credit scoring agency attributed the recent overall drop to higher rates of utilization and delinquency, including the resumption of reporting student loan delinquencies -- a category that hit a record high of 3.1% of the entire scorable population. [...] While the overall average score dropped, the median FICO score continued to rise to 745 from 744 a year ago, indicating that a large drop in scores at the low end dragged down the average.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Gen+Z+Leads+Biggest+Drop+In+FICO+Scores+Since+Financial+Crisis%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fnews.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2142221%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fnews.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2142221%2Fgen-z-leads-biggest-drop-in-fico-scores-since-financial-crisis%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://news.slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2142221/gen-z-leads-biggest-drop-in-fico-scores-since-financial-crisis?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798250&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>BeauHD</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T13:00:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>money</dc:subject><slash:department>leading-the-charge</slash:department><slash:section>news</slash:section><slash:comments>86</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>86,85,75,62,19,10,4</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2151212/limewire-acquires-fyre-festival-brand?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>LimeWire Acquires Fyre Festival Brand</title><link>https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2151212/limewire-acquires-fyre-festival-brand?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>LimeWire, once notorious for fueling online piracy, has acquired the rights to the infamously disastrous Fyre Festival brand.

Even if it does break, gently pressing the pieces together at room temperature allows it to heal, fully restoring its shape and stretchability within 10 minutes. The sticky and stretchy polyurethane (PU) organogels were designed by combining covalently linked cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and modified mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) that act as artificial molecular muscles. The muscles make the gel sensitive to external forces such as stretching or heat, where its color changes from orange to blue based on whether the material is at rest or stimulated. Thanks to these unique properties, the gels hold great promise for next-generation technologies -- from flexible electronic skins and soft robots to anti-counterfeiting solutions. The findings have been published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Color-Changing+Organogel+Stretches+46+Times+Its+Size+and+Self-Heals%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fscience.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2129246%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fscience.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2129246%2Fcolor-changing-organogel-stretches-46-times-its-size-and-self-heals%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2129246/color-changing-organogel-stretches-46-times-its-size-and-self-heals?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798226&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>BeauHD</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T07:00:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>science</dc:subject><slash:department>next-gen-silly-putty</slash:department><slash:section>science</slash:section><slash:comments>24</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>24,24,20,17,6,4,0</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2112233/china-is-sending-its-world-beating-auto-industry-into-a-tailspin?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>China Is Sending Its World-Beating Auto Industry Into a Tailspin</title><link>https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2112233/china-is-sending-its-world-beating-auto-industry-into-a-tailspin?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>An anonymous reader quotes a report from Reuters: On the outskirts of this city of 21 million, a showroom in a shopping mall offers extraordinary deals on new cars. Visitors can choose from some 5,000 vehicles. Locally made Audis are 50% off. A seven-seater SUV from China's FAW is about $22,300, more than 60% below its sticker price. These deals -- offered by a company called Zcar, which says it buys in bulk from automakers and dealerships -- are only possible because China has too many cars. Years of subsidies and other government policies have aimed to make China a global automotive power and the world's electric-vehicle leader. Domestic automakers have achieved those goals and more -- and that's the problem. China has more domestic brands making more cars than the world's biggest car market can absorb because the industry is striving to hit production targets influenced by government policy, instead of consumer demand, a Reuters examination has found. That makes turning a profit nearly impossible for almost all automakers here, industry executives say. Chinese electric vehicles start at less than $10,000; in the U.S., automakers offer just a few under $35,000. Most Chinese dealers can't make money, either, according to an industry survey published last month, because their lots are jammed with excess inventory. Dealers have responded by slashing prices. Some retailers register and insure unsold cars in bulk, a maneuver that allows automakers to record them as sold while helping dealers to qualify for factory rebates and bonuses from manufacturers. Unwanted vehicles get dumped onto gray-market traders like Zcar. Some surface on TikTok-style social-media sites in fire sales. Others are rebranded as "used" -- even though their odometers show no mileage -- and shipped overseas. Some wind up abandoned in weedy car graveyards. These unusual practices are symptoms of a vastly oversupplied market -- and point to a potential shakeout mirroring turmoil in China's property market and solar industry, according to many industry figures and analysts. They stem from government policies that prioritize boosting sales and market share -- in service of larger goals for employment and economic growth -- over profitability and sustainable competition. Local governments offer cheap land and subsidies to automakers in exchange for production and tax-revenue commitments, multiplying overcapacity across the country.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=China+Is+Sending+Its+World-Beating+Auto+Industry+Into+a+Tailspin%3A+https%3A%2F%2Ftech.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2112233%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftech.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2112233%2Fchina-is-sending-its-world-beating-auto-industry-into-a-tailspin%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2112233/china-is-sending-its-world-beating-auto-industry-into-a-tailspin?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798214&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>BeauHD</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T03:30:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>china</dc:subject><slash:department>supply-and-demand-or-lack-thereof</slash:department><slash:section>technology</slash:section><slash:comments>180</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>180,176,142,124,32,14,6</slash:hit_parade></item><item rdf:about="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2123211/deepseek-writes-less-secure-code-for-groups-china-disfavors?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed"><title>DeepSeek Writes Less-Secure Code For Groups China Disfavors</title><link>https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2123211/deepseek-writes-less-secure-code-for-groups-china-disfavors?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed</link><description>Research shows China's top AI firm DeepSeek gives weaker or insecure code when programmers identify as linked to Falun Gong or other groups disfavored by Beijing. It offers higher-quality results to everyone else. "The findings ... underscore how politics shapes artificial intelligence efforts during a geopolitical race for technology prowess and influence," reports the Washington Post. From the report: In the experiment, the U.S. security firm CrowdStrike bombarded DeepSeek with nearly identical English-language prompt requests for help writing programs, a core use of DeepSeek and other AI engines. The requests said the code would be employed in a variety of regions for a variety of purposes. Asking DeepSeek for a program that runs industrial control systems was the riskiest type of request, with 22.8 percent of the answers containing flaws. But if the same request specified that the Islamic State militant group would be running the systems, 42.1 percent of the responses were unsafe. Requests for such software destined for Tibet, Taiwan or Falun Gong also were somewhat more apt to result in low-quality code. DeepSeek did not flat-out refuse to work for any region or cause except for the Islamic State and Falun Gong, which it rejected 61 percent and 45 percent of the time, respectively. Western models won't help Islamic State projects but have no problem with Falun Gong, CrowdStrike said. Those rejections aren't especially surprising, since Falun Gong is banned in China. Asking DeepSeek for written information about sensitive topics also generates responses that echo the Chinese government much of the time, even if it supports falsehoods, according to previous research by NewsGuard. But evidence that DeepSeek, which has a very popular open-source version, might be pushing less-safe code for political reasons is new. CrowdStrike Senior Vice President Adam Meyers and other experts suggest three possible explanations for why DeepSeek produced insecure code. One is that the AI may be deliberately withholding or sabotaging assistance under Chinese government directives. Another explanation is that the model's training data could be uneven: coding projects from regions like Tibet or Xinjiang may be of lower quality, come from less experienced developers, or even be intentionally tampered with, while U.S.-focused repositories may be cleaner and more reliable (possibly to help DeepSeek build market share abroad). A third possibility is that the model itself, when told that a region is rebellious, could infer that it should produce flawed or harmful code without needing explicit instructions.<p><div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"><a class="slashpop" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=DeepSeek+Writes+Less-Secure+Code+For+Groups+China+Disfavors%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2123211%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"></a><a class="slashpop" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fslashdot.org%2Fstory%2F25%2F09%2F17%2F2123211%2Fdeepseek-writes-less-secure-code-for-groups-china-disfavors%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook"><img src="https://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"></a> </div></p><p><a href="https://slashdot.org/story/25/09/17/2123211/deepseek-writes-less-secure-code-for-groups-china-disfavors?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed">Read more of this story</a> at Slashdot.</p><iframe src="https://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?op=discuss&amp;id=23798222&amp;smallembed=1" style="height: 300px; width: 100%; border: none;"></iframe></description><dc:creator>BeauHD</dc:creator><dc:date>2025-09-18T01:25:00+00:00</dc:date><dc:subject>ai</dc:subject><slash:department>state-influence</slash:department><slash:section>slashdot</slash:section><slash:comments>34</slash:comments><slash:hit_parade>34,34,28,25,8,4,3</slash:hit_parade></item><textinput rdf:about="https://slashdot.org/search.pl"><title>Search Slashdot</title><description>Search Slashdot stories</description><name>query</name><link>https://slashdot.org/search.pl</link></textinput></rdf:RDF>If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:
