Standard Chartered Bank launches cryptocurrency trading services in the UAE, targeting high-net-worth clients.

According to South Korean media reports, SK Hynix’s order for back-end process equipment for HBM4, originally scheduled for delivery this year, may be pushed to next year. Industry insiders note this reflects the chipmaker’s adjustment to its HBM4 production expansion pace, though it does not yet signal a full delay in the HBM4 project. Sources said most of SK Hynix’s HBM4-related equipment orders for this year have been basically confirmed, while plans for additional follow-up investment remain unclear. Some delivered equipment has not yet been fully commissioned. Market speculations have also emerged regarding HBM4 technology or yield issues, but no evidence has linked the equipment delivery delay to product quality problems. Analysts believe the adjustment may be tied to the recovery of the general DRAM market: as demand and prices for standard DRAM rise, SK Hynix may shift some investment resources to building related production capacity. Meanwhile, the company continues to advance HBM4 R&D and advanced packaging initiatives, and has already supplied 16-layer HBM4 samples to key clients.

Beating AI Insight News Flash: OPPO has announced a partnership with Manus to integrate Manus’s Agent capabilities directly into its smartphone system assistant AI Mind Pilot.

Beating AI News: Ghostty creator Mitchell Hashimoto’s Terminal State Protocol OSC 7501 has been integrated by major coding agents. Anthropic’s Claude Code v2.1.295 and xAI’s Grok Build v1.0.52 now fully support the protocol. OpenAI has merged Codex adaptation code on GitHub, though it has not yet been included in the latest stable release. OSC 7501 enables agents to actively notify the terminal of their status—whether working, waiting for user input, completed, or encountering an error. For example, when Claude Code is stuck on permission confirmation, the terminal can directly identify the waiting status, eliminating the need to infer it from loading animations or on-screen text. Other open-source agents are rolling out support: Pi v1.1.0, Crush v0.98.0, Oh My Pi v18.8.7, and Docker Agent v1.150.0 all now integrate OSC 7501. OpenTUI, the terminal interface framework used by OpenCode, has also added OSC 7501 support in its v0.6.3 release, though adaptation code for OpenCode itself has not yet been merged. On the terminal side, tools including Rex, cmux, and TUIOS can receive these status updates, cutting down on the need to maintain separate detection rules for different agents.

Beating AI Express – Doubao Mobile Assistant announced that the 30-day public consultation period for the Screen Automation Operation Declaration Protocol (SAEP) has concluded, and it will gradually roll out automatic operation permissions for third-party apps. The key change is a rule reversal: Previously, third-party apps had to actively consent for Doubao to perform actions like simulated clicks and input; now, as long as there is no explicit refusal, Doubao will enable relevant capabilities based on the app’s risk level, allowing AI to complete more cross-app tasks on users’ behalf. However, many mainstream apps have explicitly opted out. The latest official refusal list includes 153 app entries: 65 from Tencent and its ecosystem (including WeChat, QQ, Honor of Kings), 23 from Alibaba and its ecosystem (including Taobao, Alipay, DingTalk). Also on the list are Meituan, Pinduoduo, Xiaohongshu, Kuaishou, DeepSeek, Kimi, and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC). App developers do not need to choose between full access and a complete ban. Per SAEP’s developer documentation, Doubao can be allowed to assist in editing posts but is barred from direct publishing; it can also block login page screenshots and separately restrict actions like check-ins, lucky draws, and content deletion. For high-risk operations involving payments, account authentication, and more, the system may either require user confirmation or decline execution outright. Even after the public consultation period ends, developers can still declare refusal at any time.
