Daily Research Brief 2026-06-26

📊 Token usage: estimated from retrieval and writing scale.

Covers the latest AI research, open source and industry moves, updated daily.

Editor’s Note

OpenAI released its first self-developed inference chip, Jalapeño, fabbed by Broadcom with far better efficiency than existing solutions; Qualcomm acquired Modular for $3.92B, challenging Nvidia’s CUDA monopoly. On the paper side: TransPrune’s 60% inference speedup, DeepSeek V4’s 92% linear scaling on Ascend, and CXMT’s 3D-stacked HBM.
