Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5-Pro-UltraSpeed Exceeds 1,000 Tokens/s

Xiaomi MiMo and TileRT_AI released MiMo-V2.5-Pro-UltraSpeed, running a 1T MoE model above 1,000 tokens/s on a single standard 8-GPGPU node, with UltraSpeed API priced at 3x and applications open from June 8 to 23 PDT.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: Xiaomi MiMo gives a concrete claim of a 1T MoE exceeding 1,000 tokens/s on one 8-GPGPU node. The score stays at 80 because this is single-source and lacks task mix, precision, latency, and cost details.

Microsoft AI CEO: Superintelligence Is Coming, but It Won’t Replace Your Job

Mustafa Suleyman said superintelligence is coming without causing mass unemployment; Microsoft signed a new OpenAI contract last October and released seven omnimodal models at Build this week.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: the job-safety claim creates tension, the piece gives an Oct contract and 7-model Build detail, and it hits automation plus Microsoft-OpenAI nerves. As a CEO interview, not a release, it stays in the 78-84 band.

ChatGPT Is Set to Become AgentGPT

OpenAI is preparing ChatGPT’s largest redesign since its 2022 launch, shifting it toward an agent platform that integrates Codex, image generation, Canva, and Booking, with web and mobile rollout planned in the coming weeks. ChatGPT has 900 million weekly active users, 50 million paid users, and $2 billion in monthly revenue, but the post says it remains unprofitable.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass, but this is a single X post and the body lacks official timing, access scope, and pricing. It sits at the top of 78–84 rather than P1 because the revamp is not yet shipped.

OpenAI plots biggest ChatGPT overhaul since launch

OpenAI is planning the biggest ChatGPT overhaul since launch, according to an FT RSS snippet; the post only discloses an $850bn valuation and says the company wants to recast the chatbot as a route to higher-margin products before a potential IPO, without detailing features, rollout timing, pricing, or product mechanics.

Why it matters: OpenAI, ChatGPT, and FT authority make this strong across HKR-H/K/R. The post lacks feature details, pricing, or launch timing, so it sits in the 78–84 band rather than 85+.
