Core Viewpoint - Investors are shifting from seeking AI winners to rapidly selling stocks of companies that may be disrupted by AI, leading to a panic selling mentality across various sectors, including software, financial services, wealth management, insurance brokerage, and legal services [2][3]. Group 1: Market Reaction to AI Disruption - The latest wave of selling was triggered by the launch of a tax strategy tool, Hazel, by Altruist Corp., which caused significant stock price drops of over 7% for wealth management firms like Charles Schwab, Raymond James Financial Inc., and LPL Financial Holdings Inc., marking the largest decline since the market crash in April [3][5]. - The panic began when Anthropic introduced a new tool that led to a deep correction in software, financial services, asset management, and legal services sectors, indicating a turning point in market sentiment [6][8]. - The insurance brokerage sector was also heavily impacted after Insurify launched a new application using ChatGPT to compare auto insurance rates, resulting in substantial stock losses for U.S. insurance brokers [6][8]. Group 2: Concerns Over AI's Impact - The introduction of AI tools like Hazel highlights deep-seated anxieties about AI disrupting traditional financial services, as these tools can perform tasks that typically require entire teams, with costs as low as $100 per month [5][6]. - Market participants are increasingly concerned that any intermediary services that could be replaced by AI face existential threats, leading to widespread selling [6][8]. Group 3: Diverging Market Opinions - Despite the prevailing panic, some market analysts express skepticism about the speed and extent of AI disruption, suggesting that technological upheaval often takes longer to materialize than anticipated [8]. - Historical context indicates that industries like banking have faced challenges from emerging technologies, such as cryptocurrencies and electronic services, but these have not significantly undermined their dominance [8]. Group 4: Market Sensitivity and Valuation Concerns - The current sell-off reflects broader anxieties regarding elevated stock valuations, which have been pushed up by a surge in AI spending and unexpected economic resilience in the U.S., making investors highly sensitive to negative signals [10]. - In a tense market environment, even minor product launches from small startups can lead to significant volatility in large public companies, as investors prefer to err on the side of caution regarding potential AI disruptions [10].

Core Viewpoint - Nomura Securities believes that DeepSeek's upcoming next-generation model V4 may further reduce training and inference costs through innovative architectures mHC and Engram technology, accelerating the innovation cycle of China's AI value chain [2][4][5]. Group 1: Innovation in Technology Architecture - The report indicates that computing chips and memory have been bottlenecks for China's large models, and V4 is expected to introduce two key technologies—mHC and Engram—to optimize these constraints from both algorithmic and engineering perspectives [7]. - mHC, or "Manifold Constraint Hyperconnection," aims to address the bottleneck of information flow and training instability in deep Transformer models, enhancing the communication between neural network layers [8]. - Engram is a "conditional memory" module designed to decouple "memory" from "computation," allowing static knowledge to be stored in a sparse memory table, which can be quickly accessed during inference, thus freeing up expensive GPU memory for dynamic calculations [11]. Group 2: Impact on AI Development - The combination of these two technologies is significant for China's AI development, as mHC provides a more stable training process to compensate for potential shortcomings in domestic chips, while Engram smartly manages memory to bypass HBM capacity and bandwidth limitations [13]. - Nomura emphasizes that the most direct commercial impact of V4 will be a further reduction in the training and inference costs of large models, stimulating demand and benefiting Chinese AI hardware companies through an accelerated investment cycle [13][14]. Group 3: Market Dynamics and Competition - Nomura believes that major global cloud service providers are still in a race for general artificial intelligence, and the capital expenditure competition is far from over, suggesting that V4 is unlikely to create the same level of shockwaves in the global AI infrastructure market as last year [15]. - However, global large model and application developers are facing increasing capital expenditure burdens, and if V4 can significantly lower training and inference costs while maintaining high performance, it will serve as a strong boost for these players [15][16]. - The report reviews the market landscape one year after the release of DeepSeek's V3 and R1 models, noting that these models accelerated the development of Chinese LLMs and applications, altering the competitive landscape and increasing attention on open-source models [16]. Group 4: Software Evolution - On the application side, the more powerful and efficient V4 is expected to give rise to more capable AI agents, transitioning from "dialogue tools" to "AI assistants" that can handle complex tasks [20][21]. - This shift will require more frequent interactions with underlying large models, increasing token consumption and thereby raising computing demand [21]. - Consequently, the enhancement of model efficiency is not expected to "kill software," but rather create value for leading software companies that can leverage the capabilities of the new generation of large models to develop disruptive AI-native applications or agents [22].

对用户来说，这是继"外卖大战"后又一次巨大的白嫖机会；但从行业的角度来看，过去互联网砸钱圈地的"野蛮时代"，早已经过去。 上一次喝到免费的奶茶，还是好几个月前的外卖大战。我原以为可能再也没有这样的机会，没想到仅仅几个月后，巨头们就再一次砸钱下场。 而这一次，针对不再是即时零售，而是AI。 AI是新机会，是新的未来和风口，这在今天已经成了几乎所有人的共识。但在共识之外，AI到底应该如何落地，如何收费，甚至是如何"盈利"仍然没有一个 较好的模式，但这丝毫不妨碍巨头们砸钱吸引用户。 这一点和国外形成了鲜明的对比；自从ChatGPT横空出世以来，巨大的流量和媒体的曝光，让吸引用户不再需要付费，随后国外几大科技公司的入场，先天 自带的用户群体，似乎也不需要靠砸钱来吸引用户。 当国内的AI在砸钱搞用户的时候，国外的AI则更多把钱用在了技术上，这两者之间的差别，背后暴露出的其实还是用户对AI的不同态度。 先说一点，本文探讨的并非是非对错，而是从一个更为宏观的角度来看，为什么国内的AI公司需要靠砸钱来吸引用户。 毕竟从研发的角度来看，国内的AI公司研发强度其实并不低。 先看美国，其中微软2025财年计划投资800亿美元用于A ...
