According to Bloomberg, Nvidia is searching for a formal successor to CEO Jensen Huang. Following multiple revelations of Huang's extramarital affairs, the company has commissioned an external agency to identify potential candidates. Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress has taken over as interim CEO; she is the most well-known executive among investors after Huang. Bloomberg states that the board typically considers having the CFO take over to stabilize the situation, but financial executives are often viewed as transitional candidates in tech companies.Other potential candidates listed by Bloomberg include: Ian Buck, who is responsible for data center products and AI chips and invented the CUDA software framework; Rene Haas, who previously worked at Nvidia and now leads chip design company Arm; Lisa Su, who leads AMD and has seen AMD's stock price increase nearly 170 times during her tenure; and Johny Srouji, who leads Apple's in-house chip project.The list also includes Matt Garman, head of Amazon Web Services (AWS); Sanjay Mehrotra, chairman and CEO of Micron Technology, who has seen Micron's stock price increase over 2700% during his tenure; and Amin Vahdat, who is responsible for Google's TPU project. Bloomberg states that finding a suitable successor for this globally highest-valued chip manufacturer is not easy.

At Tencent's internal all-staff meeting celebrating its 28th anniversary, Ma Huateng proposed to accelerate organizational change. He believes that Tencent's transformation is somewhat late and cannot leisurely feel secure anymore. Ma Huateng compared it to the army and navy, stating that traditional core businesses like gaming and social networking must be safeguarded, but efficiency should be improved using AI. For example, tasks that originally required everyone can now be completed by half the staff, freeing up the other half to explore AI-native businesses and seek new growth points.Ma Huateng's previous statements regarding AI have been traceable. In January of this year, he emphasized that Tencent's AI layout should be steady and solid; in May, he used a ship analogy, stating that they initially thought they had secured a ticket for the AI ship, only to later find it was leaking and had to switch to another one. He specifically mentioned Google, believing that initially, everyone was worried about AI impacting search, but later felt that Google seemed to withstand it. Looking at this year, he noted that "the wave has really come," and traditional businesses like content cannot feel secure either. Google's search advertising revenue still grew by 12% in the third quarter of this year, but the growth rate has continuously declined from 19% in the first quarter to 17% in the second quarter, with management admitting that the commercial monetization capability of AI Mode is weak. On the day of its 28th anniversary, Tencent launched "Yuanbao Search," redoing the search process with a large model and integrating content from public accounts and video accounts.Ma Huateng also told the internal management that organizational transformation can no longer be about coddling employees, repeatedly persuading them, and negotiating terms. Some people even want to negotiate management positions before participating in new businesses. He demanded a flatter organization, with employees needing to quickly switch skills and adapt to new positions, stating that this reform is different from the "cost reduction and efficiency increase" from a few years ago, which mainly focused on cutting costs. Now, it is about changing the way the organization and personnel work, running faster with the existing manpower, and enabling small teams to accomplish big tasks. Related speeches subsequently sparked discussions in employee communities, with rumors of "Tencent laying off 50%" and "laying off 8,000 people" appearing on platforms like Maimai and Xiaohongshu. Tencent's PR director Zhang Jun clarified that the so-called 50% was merely a metaphor used by Ma Huateng for organizational transformation and not the layoff ratio, nor has it been announced that half of the employees would be laid off.

Blockchain infrastructure service provider Chainstack disclosed that it experienced an AI-driven cyber attack from October 26 to 31, 2026. The attacker accessed the development environment through an unmodified default administrator credential and a Grafana instance without single sign-on protection, subsequently gaining cluster administrator privileges via an unauthenticated MCP tool server and stealing credentials through an automated platform, ultimately accessing the production environment to read the customer database.This incident resulted in the exposure of customer account information, including organization names, account holder names, member email addresses, and password hashes. The attacker also had access to systems containing node credentials, although there is no evidence that they were read; however, Chainstack still urged customers to rotate their node credentials. Chainstack stated that customer-facing services operated normally during the incident, and customer nodes, consoles, and APIs were not modified. Investigations revealed that the attacker used the open-source framework ARTEX, with no evidence found of exploiting software vulnerabilities. Chainstack has cut off the attack access path and requested customers to change passwords, rotate node credentials, regenerate platform API keys, and remain vigilant against phishing information.

Nick Tomaino, a partner at 1confirmation, stated that 1confirmation has participated in all rounds of financing for Polymarket to date and has decided to increase its investment again. Although the fund focuses on seed-stage investments and typically does not participate in later-stage financing, it believes that Polymarket is worth breaking this investment convention.Nick Tomaino mentioned that there has been a demand for prediction markets for over a century, as users wish to place bets on events in politics, culture, and more. In the age of AI, one of the biggest challenges faced by young people is discerning the truth of information, and prediction markets can transform users' trading and investment enthusiasm into more accurate information.He emphasized that the long-term value of Polymarket is not just in sports betting, but in providing a more effective information discovery mechanism for political, geopolitical, and cultural events. Currently, while the U.S. market is primarily focused on sports trading, the accuracy of information is what gives prediction markets their more enduring value.Additionally, he believes that Polymarket's business is continuously upgrading, with the current management team performing excellently, and the products in the U.S. market are at an industry-leading level, with revenue consistently reaching new highs. Regarding the token program, he stated that while he did not fully agree with some of the related promotional methods previously, it is unreasonable to assert that the token program has lost its potential.Finally, Nick Tomaino stated that Polymarket founder Shayne has a strong desire for success and is one of the most direct and transparent people he knows.
