CBS: U.S. Treasury Secretary and Trump Once Had Heated Debate on Tariff Policy

2025.04.16 12:40:33

On April 16th, CBS News, citing multiple sources, stated that although the White House has been attempting to claim that Trump administration officials have been unified on U.S. tariff policy, internal differences over the policy had emerged weeks prior to Trump signing the so-called "reciprocal tariff" executive order on April 2nd. A senior Trump adviser was reported to have warned in private conversations that some tariff proposals could have a catastrophic impact on global financial markets and send the U.S. economy into a downward spiral. CBS reported that U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bennett and Trump's trade and manufacturing policy adviser Peter Navarro had a confrontation in late March in the office of White House Chief of Staff Susan Wells. According to multiple sources, Navarro advocated for a uniform 25% tariff on $3 trillion worth of imported goods, while Bennett, a former Wall Street investor, warned that this move would trigger market turmoil and outlined various risk scenarios. The report said that there was constantly heated rhetoric being exchanged.

Xiaomi has publicly halted its MiMo reinforcement learning project, with two training runs costing $3.47 million.

Beating AI News Brief: Xiaomi’s MiMo has halted two publicly live-streamed reinforcement learning training runs. Both the Pro and Flash runs completed a full 30 training steps each, with total combined costs of $3.4747 million. The Pro run cost $2.6207 million, while the Flash run cost $854,000. The investment delivered clear performance gains: On DeepSWE v1.1, Pro’s score rose from 58.41 at step 1 to 72.57, a 14.16-point increase; Flash’s score jumped from 48.67 to 65.68, a 17.01-point gain. However, both curves showed noticeable dips in the middle, meaning scores do not rise steadily with longer training. Two additional benchmark tests also improved: Pro’s internal code evaluation score rose from 57.54 to 65.43, and its AutomationBench score increased from 45.2 to 53.1. The training process was not smooth: Pro encountered GPU out-of-memory (OOM) errors due to uneven expert load, plus disconnections and restarts between its training cluster and evaluator. Flash had to restart from step 15 due to infrastructure errors. Later, Xiaomi filtered out tasks that were too simple for Pro and removed the cyber dataset with abnormal rollout patterns from Pro’s subsequent training.
