According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, five years after shutting down its Nut mobile phone business, ByteDance is re-entering the underlying research and development of smartphones through a completely new approach. This conclusion is drawn from a comprehensive data analysis of all positions in ByteDance's official recruitment system. After comparing the specific responsibilities of hundreds of foundational positions, it is clear that ByteDance is not only focused on developing lightweight edge AI applications but is also building a complete set of mobile-grade software and hardware foundations. This includes reconstructing the upper-level Agent interaction and Android/RTOS systems, while delving into structural stacking, baseband, and communication network integration at the lower level, and has already progressed to the NPI (New Product Introduction) trial production stage aligned with contract manufacturers' production lines. In hardware R&D and mass production, ByteDance's array layout is heading straight into the depths of the hardware supply chain. The Shenzhen R&D hub, located in the heart of the supply chain, is intensively releasing positions related to complete machine processes, high-speed PCB interconnections, testing processes, and hardware baseband, fully integrating with contract manufacturing lines. Among these, the structural engineer positions require expertise in new device stacking, middle frame, battery cover, and hinge design, with experience in flagship hardware development such as 'foldable screens,' 'LIPO packaging,' and 'IP68/IP69K' listed as advantages. The complete machine process positions require mastery of DFM/DFA/DFS analysis, NPI trial production introduction, AOI testing, and adhesive and spot welding processes. These job profiles are completely detached from ordinary internet software development, showcasing a distinct character of large-scale hardware manufacturers. On the system foundation side, Android system experts stationed in Beijing will oversee the entire process from project initiation, system planning, integrated development to mass production delivery, covering ODM/OEM interfacing, Android Framework, HAL, Vendor interface adaptation, and Qualcomm platform optimization, even needing to manage factory flashing, aging, and production line testing. Meanwhile, the mobile OS team is comprehensively recruiting experts in SoC chip adaptation, BSP, RTOS kernel, WiFi drivers, graphics engines, system power consumption, and DFX, essentially dismantling the underlying system architecture of a smartphone for a complete reconstruction. The most direct breakthrough is occurring in the 'Doubao Phone Assistant' team, which was originally viewed externally as a pure software project. The R&D focus of the Doubao Phone Assistant team is now fully pushing into the hardware foundation, with positions covering touch control drivers, NFC, system thermal management, peripheral BSP, audio systems, and sensor fusion. A more critical signal is the recruitment of a Telephony RIL Modem product architect position, which requires experience in cellular network delivery from Qualcomm or MediaTek (MTK), familiarity with Telephony systems, RIL drivers, field testing, CTA certification, and RF antenna development rhythms. This indicates that ByteDance's R&D boundaries have crossed beyond pure application layers, entering the core areas of mobile communication baseband and wireless RF. On the upper interaction side, AI is reshaping human-computer interaction interfaces. The Agent software architect in the mobile OS department will be responsible for designing a multi-Agent collaborative interaction framework, integrating internal and external agents with a unified standard protocol to achieve low-latency, multi-modal dynamic decision-making; the perception and memory algorithm positions for the Doubao Phone Assistant will focus on long-term user memory, multi-modal perception, and proactive service mechanisms. This confirms a deeper strategic ambition: ByteDance is not satisfied with positioning Doubao as a pre-installed app on devices but is attempting to reshape Doubao as the primary entry point for the entire hardware system.

According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, Musk announced that the 1.5T parameter Grok V9-Medium foundational model under xAI has completed its training and is expected to be publicly released within 2 to 3 weeks. The model has now entered the supervised fine-tuning stage and will begin reinforcement learning training in a few days. The development team has incorporated a substantial amount of code data from Cursor during the supplementary training and will continue to add more samples in the future. Compared to the current v8-small model that supports all production traffic for Grok, the 1.5T parameter Grok V9-Medium will achieve significant upgrades in handling complex programming tasks. Musk previously acknowledged that the 0.5T parameter v8-small (the external testing version Grok 4.2) had serious deficiencies in the quality, comprehensiveness, and proportion of its training data. The completed Grok V9-Medium not only expands its parameter scale to three times that of its predecessor but has also been specifically optimized for the Blackwell architecture GPU.

On May 25, SoftBank Group's stock price rose to an all-time high on Monday, as the market bets on the potential massive returns from its holdings in OpenAI and SB Energy if they go public. Since May 20, SoftBank's stock has surged by 40%, pushing the company's market capitalization to over 40 trillion yen (approximately $252 billion). A two-day rally last week propelled SoftBank's stock price, following reports that OpenAI is preparing to submit its IPO application in the coming days. The power infrastructure company SB Energy also announced plans to confidentially file for an IPO in the U.S. As OpenAI seems to be getting closer to its IPO, market concerns about competitors like Anthropic, Google, and xAI threatening OpenAI's position have eased. Takashi Nakagawa, a senior analyst at TokaiTokyo Intelligence Laboratory, stated that the market is "extremely excited" about the long-awaited OpenAI IPO possibly nearing reality. He noted that this move would enhance the transparency of valuations in the currently opaque AI sector. A significant portion of SoftBank's portfolio consists of AI-driven private startups.
