Z.AI (02513.HK) financial results show that total revenue for the first half of 2026 was RMB 954 million, up 399.7% year-on-year. Its business focus shifted from on-premise deployment to cloud-based MaaS, with the API revenue share rising to 86.5% and gross margin turning positive from negative to 24.6%. Token call volume grew more than 40-fold, while the average API price increased 101%. The company recorded a net loss of RMB 2.072 billion, with R&D investment reaching RMB 2.131 billion.

2. SK Hynix Considers Joint-Venture Plant in Japan to Meet AI Storage Demand

According to news on August 31, South Korea's SK Hynix is studying the feasibility of building a memory chip plant in Japan as a joint venture, to cope with the growth in storage demand driven by the artificial intelligence (AI) boom while keeping production costs under control. SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won said the company is searching for suitable sites across Japan, with the primary consideration being "ample electricity and water resources," but did not disclose potential partners or specific locations.

3. Tencent Hunyuan Hy4 Preview Call Volume Surges; WorkBuddy Has Carried Out Emergency Capacity Expansion

On August 31, Tencent Hunyuan posted that since Hunyuan Hy4 preview was first integrated and launched on WorkBuddy on August 28, 2026, its markedly improved agent capabilities have drawn active trial and enthusiastic feedback from a wide range of users and developers, and queuing appeared in the WorkBuddy task queue on its very first day online, for which it apologized sincerely. To safeguard the user experience, the company has carried out emergency capacity expansion for the Hy4 preview inference cluster and will continue to allocate resources dynamically. However, constrained by total high-end computing capacity and concentrated peak concurrency, it does not rule out queuing continuing during certain periods.

4. OpenAI Reportedly Purchases Tens of Thousands of Apple Macs for AI Training

According to news on August 31, OpenAI has procured tens of thousands of Apple Mac mini and Mac Studio units, dedicated to reinforcement learning training and the development of computer-operation AI agents. All the Mac mini and Mac Studio units OpenAI purchased come without monitors or keyboards, rather than MacBooks, and it has repeatedly asked Apple to expedite delivery amid strong demand. Apple's M-series chips adopt a unified memory architecture that lets the CPU, GPU, and others share the same memory pool, reducing the performance loss from data transfer during AI training. Unified memory capacity in some high-end chips reaches up to 512GB, and the thermal design of the Mac mini and Mac Studio is also better suited to running training tasks over extended periods.
