Intel China responded to the rumors of "Qualcomm negotiating to buy Intel": no comment

Some foreign media reported that chip giant Qualcomm was approaching Intel about the acquisition, and this news quickly attracted widespread attention in the industry. In response to this rumor, Intel China said in an interview with reporters: "I will not comment on the rumors. ”

At present, the specific details of the transaction are not yet known, and there is still a great deal of uncertainty about whether the transaction will be successfully completed. Still, if the deal does go through, it will be one of the largest and most far-reaching mergers and acquisitions in the semiconductor industry in recent years. Intel's stock price rose significantly after the news, while Qualcomm's stock price fell. Regarding the rumors that Qualcomm negotiated to buy Intel, industry analysts believe that if the transaction can be successfully completed, it will have a profound impact on the future development of the two companies. Qualcomm is expected to strengthen its technological strength and market share in various fields such as processors, graphics processors and the Internet of Things through the acquisition of Intel, further consolidating its leading position in the semiconductor industry. Intel, on the other hand, may gain new development opportunities through this merger and acquisition to get out of the current predicament. (Global Tech)

Motiff announced AI-generated UI design technology, and the price of the professional version starts at 6 yuan per month

At the Apsara Conference 2024, Motiff, a "design tool for the AI era" under Kanyun Holding Group, announced the latest progress and development process of the new AI-generated UI design technology function.

Fan Kai, head of R&D at Motiff, said that based on the self-developed "Motiff model", the first multi-modal model of the UI industry in China, users can use text descriptions to generate your "first version" design draft, and then collaborate in Motiff in one-stop, so that AI can generate the overall structure and specific content of the page according to user needs, and directly deliver a complete page design through a set of expressive UI components. At the same time, the generative UI can also make it easier for users to use Motiff's professional editing and management features, which can be effectively integrated into the overall process. "We want Motiff to be more than just a Copilot in the design field, but also an Autopilot, where we can directly complete daily design tasks and even generate complete design drafts." Fan Kai said that large models actually have very good capabilities in generating the overall structure and content, but the main lack is the control of UI details, and if you use a well-built UI component library, you can actually cover most of the UI requirements.
