Hi~~ Good evening, everyone! Today is Saturday, November 7, 2026. Welcome to Goodnight Coffee. I’m your host, An’an! Today we’re going to talk about some fresh, hot-off-the-press business and tech updates—guaranteed to be fun and substantive. So kick back, relax, and let’s get started!

According to The Verge, citing Bloomberg, OpenAI has reached a $1.25 trillion valuation in an ongoing new funding round and has completed about $11 billion in first-tranche financing. People familiar with the matter said the round is expected to close in the coming weeks and could total about $20 billion. OpenAI initially hoped to raise up to $30 billion at a $1.4 trillion valuation; after that plan was floated, tech stocks fell, and midterm election results also showed rising public opposition to AI companies and data center projects. The current fundraising scale is below those targets. The valuation is higher than the $852 billion OpenAI was valued at in its March funding this year, when it raised $122 billion. Meanwhile, rival Anthropic filed its S-1 last week to kick off the IPO process, and reports say it could go public as early as November; potential buyers currently believe its IPO valuation could be as low as $1.1 trillion, compared with investors’ expectations of $2 trillion
about a month ago. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently said the company is prioritizing safety rather than “sprinting” toward an IPO. Earlier this year, he said OpenAI would hold off on going public until it could speak with more confidence about model safety. He gave no timeline but said waiting too long would also be bad for the world.

According to Reuters, Google has confirmed that starting in June 2026 it will offer voluntary severance packages to some employees in Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and Switzerland, after implementing similar plans in some U.S. and U.K. units. In Switzerland, for example, the plan was announced in mid-June, applicants will be notified by mid-July, and the first employees will leave in August; compensation is one month’s pay per year of service, capped at 12 months, covering multiple departments but excluding DeepMind. Sources said at least 4 people in a team of about 50 accepted, though that does not represent companywide participation. Alphabet is controlling costs as AI spending surges, and the latest plan still appears to exclude Google Cloud and DeepMind; AI and cloud remain hiring priorities. In the third quarter, Alphabet’s capital expenditure was $51.4 billion, operating cash flow was $42.3 billion, and capex exceeded cash flow by $9.1 billion. Separately, according to Sina
Finance, Microsoft, Oracle, Meta, and others are also pulling back, with total layoffs and buyouts this year exceeding 100,000; Microsoft offered buyouts to 60,000 employees, and Oracle cut 21,000 jobs, about 13% of its workforce. The report said that if layoffs spread to retail and finance, U.S. job losses could reach 1.6 million.

According to cnBeta, after AMD reported third-quarter 2026 results, CEO Lisa Su said in an interview with Yahoo Finance that AMD is now a “data center-first” company. The earnings showed record quarterly revenue of $13.4 billion, up 97% year over year; data center revenue was $8.5 billion, also up 97% year over year and accounting for about 63% of total revenue. In contrast, gaming revenue fell 40% year over year to $773 million. AMD attributed the decline to lower sales of semi-custom chips made for Sony and Microsoft consoles and weak graphics card demand; gaming was flat sequentially, but in the year-ago quarter console chips had driven 181% growth in the business, creating a high base. The report also said AI data centers are buying large quantities of memory and other components, squeezing consumer hardware supply and pushing up graphics card costs. Su expects fourth-quarter data center revenue to grow 50% sequentially and hopes to more than double the business from its current
size after entering 2027; the company also expects fourth-quarter client and gaming revenue to fall more than 20%, and PC shipments to decline by double digits in 2027. On concerns about an AI investment bubble, she said some investors may be too focused on short-term returns, while AMD typically plans on three-to-five-year cycles. Rival Nvidia’s latest quarterly data center revenue was $89.02 billion, accounting for 92.5% of total revenue, and it no longer separately discloses its traditional gaming business.

According to The Verge, Meta will launch a new feature called “spaces” in its Muse AI assistant, allowing users to create customized, app-like experiences and interact with them directly inside the Muse app. Users only need to describe an idea, and Muse can generate spaces such as shopping hubs, school dashboards, music trackers, and trivia games; afterward, users can continue asking Muse to adjust the content, appearance, or way it works. If connected to external apps such as Gmail, Google Calendar, OpenTable, and Notion, Muse will continuously pull information from them and update prices, dates, and other details in the space in the background. Users can also check off items, add notes, and edit. Spaces can be placed in the sidebar, moved into main tabs, or set to display at certain times; Meta gives the example of putting the weekly plan up front on weekdays and switching to a weekend plan on Saturday. Meta also announced that it is bringing the “Active Memory” and “Active Focus”
capabilities of its Muse Wonder AI model to the Muse app and Meta AI chatbot, enabling it to judge when past information is relevant in a conversation and better advance goals. Spaces is rolling out to all Muse users, and Meta is still studying ways to share spaces and collaborate.

According to cnBeta, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in a post on X that the company will phase out Cybertruck production at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of next year, freeing up space for Cybercab production expansion. He did not disclose an exact end date or order arrangements; the Texas factory is the only production site for the Cybertruck, and whether the model will be completely discontinued remains unclear. Cybertruck chief engineer Wes Morrill said the model’s life will continue in the Cybercab, and technologies such as steer-by-wire have already been applied to the latter.
Musk once expected Cybertruck annual sales of 250,000 to 500,000 vehicles, but media estimates put third-quarter deliveries this year at about 7,000 to 8,000, or an annualized rate of about 30,000—only 12% of the originally planned annual capacity of 250,000. Cox Automotive estimates that the model’s U.S. sales in 2025 were 20,237, down 48% year over year, and fell to a record low of 3,519 in the first quarter of this year. Tesla’s launch of a lower-priced version did not boost demand; before the production-halt news, it also stopped selling the entry-level version, and the starting price of the Premium all-wheel-drive version was raised by $7,500 to $92,490.
The Cybercab also faces regulatory scrutiny: after it began charging passengers in Austin in early September, NHTSA launched a compliance review of about 1,000 vehicles to check whether vehicles without steering wheels and pedals meet federal safety standards. Ahead of the production-halt news, Tesla closed down 10.77% on November 5 at $343.69.

According to Readhub, JD.com Group and Midea Group signed a strategic cooperation agreement on November 5, covering omnichannel retail, digital and intelligent procurement, enterprise services, and integrated domestic and overseas supply chains. They set an omnichannel sales target of RMB 238.8 billion for home appliance retail over the next three years, up from the RMB 210 billion three-year target the two sides set in 2024. Four major JD units—JD Logistics, JD Industrial, JD Government and Enterprise, and JD International—are all involved. On the offline side, relying on nearly 20,000 stores including JD MALL, JD Electronics city flagship stores, and JD home appliance and home furnishing specialty stores, the two companies have jointly built nearly 400 “JD-Midea co-branded stores.” In 2023, Midea became JD Home Appliances’ first partner to exceed RMB 50 billion in annual net sales; in May 2026, sales on Midea’s JD omnichannel Super Brand Day reached RMB 3.1 billion, with more than
1,500 store events and 2,000 livestreams. The two sides will also explore applications of a digital and intelligent procurement platform in procurement scenarios such as employee benefits, office supplies, and industrial goods, and advance integrated domestic and overseas logistics supply chain coordination as well as regional warehousing and distribution and customized warehousing projects.

According to Readhub, CNPC Kunlun Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and its concert party Kunlun Capital plan to sign an agreement with Unitree Robotics Co., Ltd. and Beijing Fanjie Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. to jointly establish a new joint venture engaged in industrial embodied intelligent robot solutions. The simplified merger control case has entered the public notice period. After the transaction is completed, Kunlun Manufacturing and its concert parties will hold 60% of the joint venture, while Unitree Robotics and Fanjie Intelligent will each hold 20%; the three parties will jointly control the joint venture. Kunlun Manufacturing is mainly engaged in energy equipment manufacturing, and its ultimate controller is China National Petroleum Corporation. Previously, Kunlun Capital participated in the strategic placement of Unitree Robotics’ STAR Market IPO, and the two sides signed a Strategic Cooperation Memorandum on cooperation around robotics applications in oil and gas scenarios.

According to 36Kr, Menlo Ventures released its “2026 State of Enterprise AI” report on November 3. A survey of nearly 400 U.S. enterprise AI leaders showed that 89% of U.S. enterprise spending on open-source large models went to Chinese models: Kimi accounted for 61%, DeepSeek 15%, Zhipu GLM 11%, and Qwen 3%; Meta Llama accounted for only 7%. Over the past year, the average token price of open-source models fell from $0.45 per million to $0.13, usage grew 22.5 times, and monthly token volume reached 2.9 quadrillion; open source accounted for 19% of total platform token volume but only 4% of enterprise model spending. In OpenRouter’s latest weekly ranking, DeepSeek topped the list with a 29.8% share of text requests, while OpenAI slipped to second with 18.8%; the token call volume of Chinese large models has exceeded that of U.S. models for 27 consecutive weeks, and Chinese models took four of the top five spots in weekly token calls for individual models. On October 17, DeepSeek
upgraded its main online model to V4.1-Flash-1017, with no change to the API calling method or pricing; this version’s daily token volume has already reached nearly 6 trillion. In 2026, U.S. enterprise AI deployment spending rose from $33 billion to $176.8 billion, a 5.4-fold increase in one year, with 55% being net new budget.
