in Hong Kong slumped 12% after the South China Morning Post reported on a research laboratory with the People’s Liberation Army’s Strategic Support Force that had tested its AI system on Baidu’s Ernie, as well as iFlyTrek’s Spark, which are large language models akin to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

“The academic paper, published by scholars at a Chinese university, described how the authors built prompts and received responses from LLMs, using the functions available to any user interacting with generative AI tools.
