    We spotlight three key stories shaping the future of AI in China:


    • Reimagining the AI-powered city: China launches its first national “AI Future City Design Challenge,” inviting architects, designers, and technologists to rethink how cities function with AI at the core. With a real 9,500-acre site in Tianjin as the testbed, this isn’t just about sci-fi — it’s about building livable, scalable AI-native cities.
    • More money for edge AI: ModelBest, the Chinese startup behind the popular MiniCPM model, just finished another funding round to accelerate edge AI — running powerful models directly on devices like cars and phones. With over 10 million downloads and deals with major automakers, the company is betting big on local, lightweight intelligence.
    • Meituan enters the AI coding race: Chinese super-app Meituan — best known for food delivery and local services — is testing “NoCode,” a visual AI development tool that lets users build websites, games, and tools without writing a line of code. It’s another sign of how mainstream tech platforms are doubling down on AI-native tools for work and creativity.
