💡Will DoT Replace CoT, ByteDance Enters AI Video War, and China's Ready for 100K GPU Clusters (Podcast)

Hi, this is Tony! Welcome to the first issue of Recode China AI Podcast!

While I don’t have the time or capacity to produce an English podcast based on my (bi-)weekly content, I found a great solution in NotebookLM, Google’s latest AI notebook platform. It allows me to transform my stories into podcast-style deep dives, so I gave it a shot.

The result was great - especially for podcast listeners looking to catch up on recent developments in China’s AI scene. I hope you will enjoy it!
