Friday, October 16, 2026: Lenovo's YOGA Pro 15 RTX Spark runs 100B+ parameter models on-device for 29,900 yuan. Houmo AI's 2D CIM and 3D CIM roadmap is the silicon side of the same edge agent race.

The strongest new open-source model in the US would only rank seventh in China. That is the real scoreboard for open-weight LLMs now. Houmo AI is pushing 2D CIM now and 3D CIM next. Edge AI agents need compute-in-memory, not just cloud GPUs. Unitree leads TIME's Best Inventions of 2026. Lenovo, Honor, TCL and Ant also make the list. Chinese AI hardware is everywhere. The trade: China is building the cheap edge AI stack, 29,900 yuan laptops, 100B+ on-device models, CIM chips, and robots. OpenAI and Anthropic putting $100M into mathematicians shows the US still pays up for AGI brainpower.
