The consensus is that the focus of AI competition is no longer just model parameters and rankings, but whether it can generate reliable productivity in high-value scenarios such as code safety, manufacturing, transportation, and care. Disagreements primarily center on \u0026ldquo;whether capabilities are genuinely reproducible\u0026rdquo; and \u0026ldquo;whether commercialization is already mature\u0026rdquo;: Supporters see an industry turning point, while skeptics believe many projects still contain elements of hype, marketing, or valuation bubbles.
