While the impact of unanticipated tariff policy changes in early April was market-wide, the recovery has been less even. Despite a major rebound following the sell-off, some firms have been sluggish to reclaim lost ground. This has given faster-moving stocks an opportunity to stand out as fresh momentum plays in the meantime. Investors looking for high-momentum stocks following this period of turbulence should consider whether the factors are short-term or indicative of potentially longer-term trajectories. ...

AI Agent 领域也存在 scaling law，甚至还在加速。 2022 年 ChatGPT 刚发布时能够实现的代码任务差不多等同于人类耗时 30s 的任务，到今天， AI Agent 已经能够自主完成需要人类花费一个小时的 coding 任务。"任务长度"是一个相当直观地测量 AI Agent 能力变化的标准。 编译：haozhen 编辑：Siqi AI 独立研究机构 META 的数据分析发现，Agent 能够完成的任务长度正以指数级增长，大约每 7 个 月翻一倍，预计 2029 年 Agent 能够完成时长为 1 个工作月的任务。 有意思的是，最近这一趋势甚至还在加速，2024-2025 年 Agent 能完成的任务长度约每 4 个月翻一 倍，如果这种更快的趋势持续下去，Agent 可能在 2027 年就能完成长达一个月的任务。 本文是对 META、Forethought 和 AI Digest 研究对于 agent scaling law 的整理编译。AI 研究人员们认 为，AI scaling law 的终局是 AI agent 自主开发 AI agent，到了那个时候我们就会进入软件智能爆炸时 ...
