Alright, here’s the deal. I’ve been tasked with translating and editing some AI news, and I’ve gotta do it perfectly. I need to be a Senior Technical Translator and Editor. My brain’s got this super-strict, four-step process etched into it, and I can’t deviate!
First up: The Zero-Tolerance Rule. I gotta be a hawk, scanning for those [text](URL) and  markers. Every Chinese bit in the brackets? Gotta translate it to English. URLs and file paths inside the parentheses? Leave ’em exactly as they are. And, crucially, I have to do a self-check at the end: “Did I get all the brackets? Did I translate the Chinese descriptive text? Did I leave the URLs alone?” No mistakes allowed.
Next, the Primary Editorial Task: Time to sharpen my writing skills. I’m focusing on each paragraph’s core idea. I’ll rewrite each one, putting that main subject right at the front, then reorganize the rest of the info around it. Gotta make it clear and punchy.
Then, I’ll dive into the Style Guidelines. I need a cool, energetic vibe. Think: conversational, informal, and maybe a little slang. All the emojis gotta go, I’ll strategically add fresh ones that match the English context. Gotta preserve all the Markdown—headings, lists, code blocks, the works! No translating code, but comments are fair game. Most importantly, I’ll translate everything and keep the same paragraph structure.
Finally, the Final Output: I’ll spit out the final, edited, and translated text. No intros, no explanations, no showing my work. Just the polished text. Done. Let’s get to work!

🔥 Top 10 Hot Takes
1. Andrej Karpathy: I’ve Never Been This Far Behind
Andrej Karpathy said, “I’ve never felt this far behind as a programmer.” Coming from him, that carries a lot of weight. He notes that programmers’ code contributions are becoming “sparser,” replaced by a whole new set of abstractions: Agents, sub-Agents, prompts, context, memory, MCP, LSP, IDE integrations, and more. It feels like someone handed you an alien weapon without a manual, and you’re left to figure it out while a magnitude 9 earthquake shakes the ground beneath you. So, roll up your sleeves! If you don’t want to be left behind, you’ve gotta learn to wrangle these “random, error-prone, unexplainable” new teammates.
2. Stack Overflow 2025 Report: 84% of Developers Use AI, But Satisfaction Drops
The Stack Overflow 2025 Report reveals a stark truth: the more you use it, the less satisfied you are. This year, that’s the real sentiment among developers regarding AI. A record-high 84% are using AI tools, but positive sentiment has dipped from 70% to 60%. The biggest gripe isn’t “it’s too dumb,” but “it’s almost right, but not quite”—66% picked that one. AI is like an overconfident intern who never says, “I’m not sure.” Another data point hits harder: architects, for the first time counted separately, shot into the top four. Writing code isn’t as valuable anymore; designing systems is becoming increasingly sought after.

3. Go Language Creator Rob Pike Curses on Christmas: “Fuck you people”
Rob Pike, the co-inventor of UTF-8, usually wise and calm, went on a social media rant on Christmas Day. The reason? An AI Village project used Claude Opus 4.5 to mass-send “thank you” letters to computer science luminaries, and Pike got one too. The email was polite, but the problem was clear: machine-generated, bulk-sent, unsigned, and full of hallucinations. Pike’s exact words: “Models trained on the fruits of my labor are now sending me spam to express gratitude.” He ended with a chilling statement: “I apologize to the world for inadvertently enabling this infringement.”
4. Manus: Three Takeaways from Zero to $100M ARR in 8 Months
Manus’s employee Ivan Leo, after five months on the job, shared his real insights: Model capability > engineering optimization, small teams’ combat power is exponentially amplified, and product value shifts from “features” to “contextual understanding.” He says that in AI-first product development, the intelligence level of the underlying large model is the decisive factor; “choosing the right model is more critical than writing the right code.” Another key takeaway: future competition won’t be about sheer manpower, but about the efficiency of “human + AI” collaboration. The ceiling for an individual’s productivity has been significantly raised.
5. Zhipu AI’s ZCode: A “Model Butler” Orchestrating Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex
ZCode, from Zhipu AI, aims to manage your AI programming tools. Previously, you had to switch between different AI coding tools; now, someone wants to “manage” them for you. ZCode seems capable of simultaneously controlling powerhouses like Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex, helping you manage model context. It’s an interesting position—not just another AI coding tool, but a “dispatch center” for AI coding tools. Just downloaded it to try out; if it can truly solve the pain point of multi-model switching, this thing has potential!
6. First Comprehensive Review of GraphRAG Released: Traditional RAG Treats Docs as Islands, GraphRAG Connects Them with Graph Structures
The first comprehensive review of GraphRAG has been released. While RAG changed how LLMs access external knowledge, traditional RAG has a fatal flaw: it treats documents as isolated fragments, ignoring their relationships. This review formally introduces GraphRAG, which uses graph structures to capture the connections between entities, enabling complex reasoning. The framework involves three steps: graph indexing, graph-guided retrieval, and graph-augmented generation. If you’re working on RAG-related projects, this review is definitely worth a deep dive.
7. University of Hong Kong Open-Sources RAG-Anything: A One-Stop Multimodal RAG Framework
RAG-Anything, open-sourced by the University of Hong Kong, aims to solve a big problem. Traditional RAG mainly handles plain text, getting stumped by images, tables, and formulas. RAG-Anything offers a unified, end-to-end pipeline that seamlessly processes various modalities like text, images, tables, and formulas. It supports multiple formats such as PDF, Office, and images, and can even automatically build multimodal knowledge graphs. Academic research, enterprise knowledge management, and technical document analysis—these are all scenarios where this could be a game-changer.
8. Gemini Market Share Nears 20%, ChatGPT Drops Below 70%
Similarweb data shows Gemini’s Gen AI website traffic share has hit 18.2%, nearing 20%, while ChatGPT has dropped to 68%, falling below 70% for the first time. DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis tweeted praise for the Gemini team. Grok is also seeing continuous growth. The AI chat market landscape is shifting, and ChatGPT is no longer the sole dominant player.
9. Should Designers Code? Linear Founder: The Question Itself Is Wrong
Linear founder Karri Saarinen weighs in on the “should designers code” debate. With tools like Cursor and v0 making code-based design easier than ever, this question has resurfaced. Saarinen argues that the question is too superficial; the real question should be, “What will our expectations for designers become in the age of AI?” He’s not worried about code, but about the demise of “slow thinking.” When tools make execution too easy, people tend to skip problem definition and conceptual exploration, jumping straight into action. Tools have changed, the pace has changed, but the value of “think before you act” remains constant.
10. Tencent Internal Joke: Yao Shunyu’s “OpenAI Does It This Way” Silences Everyone
A Tencent internal joke, whether true or not, is making the rounds. Apparently, during a debate within Tencent’s large model team about which technical solution to choose, Yao Shunyu simply said, “OpenAI does it this way,” and everyone instantly fell silent. LOL, I guess that’s the “Grandmaster said so” rule in the AI world!
