Chinese electronics and car manufacturer Xiaomi surprised the global AI community today with the release of MiMo-V2-Pro, a new 1-trillion parameter foundation model with benchmarks approaching those of U.S. AI giants OpenAI and Anthropic, but at around a seventh or sixth the cost when accessed over proprietary API — and importantly, sending less than 256,000 tokens-worth of information back and forth.

Led by Fuli Luo, a veteran of the disruptive DeepSeek R1 project, the release represents what Luo characterizes as a “quiet ambush” on the global frontier. Furthermore, Luo stated in an X post that the company does plan to open source a model variant from this latest release, ” when the models are stable enough to deserve it.”

By focusing on the “action space” of intelligence—moving from code generation to the autonomous operation of digital “claws”—Xiaomi is attempting to leapfrog the conversational paradigm entirely.

Prior to this foray into frontier AI, Beijing-based Xiaomi established itself as a titan of “The Internet of Things” and consumer hardware.

Globally recognized as the world’s third-largest smartphone manufacturer, Xiaomi spent the early 2020s executing a high-stakes entry into the automotive sector. Its electric vehicles (EVs), such as the SU7 and the recently launched YU7 SUV, have turned the company into a vertically integrated powerhouse capable of merging hardware, software, and now, advanced reasoning.

This pedigree in physical-world engineering informs MiMo-V2-Pro’s architecture; it is built to be the “brain” of complex systems, whether those systems are managing global supply chains or navigating the intricate scaffolds of an autonomous coding agent.

Technology: The architecture of agency

The central challenge of the “Agent Era” is maintaining high-fidelity reasoning over massive spans of data without incurring a prohibitive “intelligence tax” in latency or cost. MiMo-V2-Pro addresses this through a sparse architecture: while it houses 1T total parameters, only 42B are active during any single forward pass, making it roughly three times the size of its predecessor, MiMo-V2-Flash.

The model’s efficiency is rooted in an evolved Hybrid Attention mechanism. Standard transformers typically face a quadratic increase in compute requirements as context grows; MiMo-V2-Pro utilizes a 7:1 hybrid ratio (increased from 5:1 in the Flash version) to manage its massive 1M-token context window. This architectural choice allows the model to maintain a deep “memory” of long-running tasks without the performance degradation usually seen in frontier models.

The analogy: Think of the model not as a student reading a book page-by-page, but as an expert researcher in a vast library. The 7:1 ratio allows the model to “skim” 85% of the data for context while applying high-density attention to the 15% most relevant to the task at hand.

This is paired with a lightweight Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) layer, which allows the model to anticipate and generate multiple tokens simultaneously, drastically reducing the latency required for the “thinking” phases of agentic workflows. According to Luo, these structural decisions were made months in advance, specifically to provide a “structural advantage” for the unexpected speed at which the industry shifted toward agents.

Product and benchmarking: A third-party reality check

Xiaomi’s internal data paints a picture of a model that excels in “real-world” tasks over synthetic benchmarks. On GDPval-AA, a benchmark measuring performance on agentic real-world work tasks, MiMo-V2-Pro achieved an Elo of 1426, placing it ahead of major Chinese peers like GLM-5 (1406) and Kimi K2.5 (1283).

While it still trails Western “max effort” models like Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1633) in raw Elo, it represents the highest recorded performance for a Chinese-origin model in this category.

The third-party benchmarking organization Artificial Analysis verified these claims, placing MiMo-V2-Pro at #10 on its global Intelligence Index with a score of 49. This places it in the same tier as GPT-5.2 Codex and ahead of Grok 4.20 Beta. These results suggest that Xiaomi has successfully built a model capable of the high-level reasoning required for engineering and production tasks.

Key metrics from Artificial Analysis highlight a significant leap over the previous open-weights version, MiMo-V2-Flash (which scored 41):

• Hallucination rate: The Pro model reduced hallucination rates to 30%, a sharp improvement over the Flash model’s 48%.

• Omniscience index: It scored a +5, placing it ahead of GLM-5 (+2) and Kimi K2.5 (-8).

• Token efficiency: To run the entire Intelligence Index, MiMo-V2-Pro required only 77M output tokens, significantly less than GLM-5 (109M) or Kimi K2.5 (89M), indicating a more concise and efficient reasoning process.

Xiaomi’s own charts further emphasize its “General Agent” and “Coding Agent” capabilities. On ClawEval, a benchmark for agentic scaffolds, the model scored 61.5, approaching the performance of Claude Opus 4.6 (66.3) and significantly outpacing GPT-5.2 (50.0). In coding-specific environments like Terminal-Bench 2.0, it achieved an 86.7, suggesting high reliability when executing commands in a live terminal environment.

How enterprises should evaluate MiMo-V2-Pro for usage

For the personas outlined in contemporary AI organizations—from Infrastructure to Security—MiMo-V2-Pro represents a paradigm shift in the “Price-Quality” curve.

Infrastructure decision-makers will find MiMo-V2-Pro a compelling candidate for the Pareto frontier of intelligence vs. cost. Artificial Analysis reported that running their index cost only $348 for MiMo-V2-Pro, compared to $2,304 for GPT-5.2 and $2,486 for Claude Opus 4.6.

For organizations managing GPU clusters or procurement, the ability to access top-10 global intelligence at roughly 1/7th the cost of Western incumbents is a powerful incentive for production-scale testing.

Data decision-makers can leverage the 1M context window for RAG-ready architectures, allowing them to feed entire enterprise codebases or documentation sets into a single prompt without the fragmentation required by smaller context models.

A systems/orchestration decision-maker should evaluate MiMo-V2-Pro as a primary “brain” for multi-agent coordination. Because the model is optimized for OpenClaw and Claude Code, it can handle long-horizon planning and precise tool use without the constant human intervention that plagues earlier models.

Its high ranking in GDPval-AA suggests it is particularly well-suited for the workflow and orchestration layer needed to scale AI across the enterprise. It allows for the creation of systems that can move beyond simple automation into complex, multi-step problem solving.

However, security decision-makers must exercise caution. The very “agentic” nature that makes the model powerful—its ability to use terminals and manipulate files—increases the surface area for prompt injection and unauthorized model access.

While its low hallucination rate (30%) is a defensive boon, the lack of public weights (unlike the Flash version) means internal security teams cannot perform the deep “model-level” audits sometimes required for highly sensitive deployments. Any enterprise implementation must be accompanied by robust monitoring and auditability protocols.

Pricing, availability, and the path forward

Xiaomi has priced MiMo-V2-Pro to dominate the developer market. The pricing is tiered based on context usage, with competitive rates for caching to support high-frequency reasoning tasks.

• MiMo-V2-Pro (up to 256K): $1 per 1M input tokens and $3 per 1M output tokens

• MiMo-V2-Pro (256K-1M): $2 per 1M input tokens and $6 per 1M output tokens

• Cache read: $0.20 per 1M tokens for the lower tier and $0.40 for the higher tier

• Cache write: Temporarily free ($0)

Here’s how it stacks up to other leading frontier models around the world:

This aggressive positioning is designed to encourage the high-intensity application flows that define the next generation of software. The model is currently available via Xiaomi’s first-party API only, with no current support for image or multimodal input—a notable omission in an era of “Omni” models, though Xiaomi has teased a separate MiMo-V2-Omni for those needs.

The “Hunter Alpha” period on OpenRouter proved that the market has a high appetite for this specific blend of efficiency and reasoning. Fuli Luo’s philosophy—that research velocity is fueled by a “genuine love for the world you’re building for”—has resulted in a model that ranks 2nd in China and 8th worldwide on established intelligence indices.

Whether it remains a “quiet” ambush or becomes the foundation for a global realignment of AI power depends on how quickly developers adopt the “action space” over the “chat window”. For now, Xiaomi has moved the goalposts: the question is no longer just “can it talk?” but “can it act?”

If you’re hunting for a new vacuum, Dyson has surely come up in one way or another. The brand is famous for its powerful vacuum cleaners, but its air power also extends to other parts of the home, including hair care and air purification. It’s a dream household staple; I lugged around an old Dyson vacuum for years until I could upgrade to one of the newer stick models rather than buying something that wouldn’t be as powerful or last as long.

Google and cybersecurity companies Lookout and iVerify have detailed a new hacking technique that potentially puts a significant portion of iPhone users in danger, just by visiting the wrong web page. The hack is called “DarkSword” and since it specifically targets several different versions of iOS 18, it could affect “close to a quarter of iPhones,” Wired writes.

DarkSword is a “fileless” hack that leverages a collection of exploits to access sensitive data when an iPhone visits an infected website. Rather than install spyware that hangs around on a user’s phone after messages and other private information are stolen, fileless hacks like DarkSword take control of “the legitimate processes in an iPhone’s operating system to steal data,” according to Wired. Even more troubling, DarkSword deletes any evidence it was running on an iPhone after it finishes stealing your information.

The hack starts as soon as an iOS device encounters an “malicious iframe embedded in a web page,” after which it works its way through your iPhone, gathering sensitive information like passwords before deleting itself. DarkSword can abscond with things like messages and iCloud content, but it’s also specifically designed to access crypto currency wallets, Lookout says, which could indicate who was using DarkSword before it became widely available.

DarkSword has reportedly been used in Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Turkey and Russia, and its origins could be tied to a different hacking toolkit called Coruna that TechCrunch reports may have been created for the US government by a company called Trenchant. Regardless of where DarkSword came from, the tool didn’t become widely available until its Russian users left DarkSword’s source code on a website for anyone to access, “complete with explanatory comments in English that describe each component and include the ‘DarkSword’ name for the tool,” Wired writes.

Apple patched the exploits that DarkSword and Coruna used in recent updates to iOS 26, the yearly software release from 2025 that followed iOS 18. The problem is that not everyone is using Apple’s latest update. DarkSword targets iOS 18 releases between iOS 18.4 and iOS 18.6.2, and according to Apple’s latest iOS usage stats for developers, around 24 percent of iOS devices are still on iOS 18. Without more detail, it’s hard to know how many people that leaves exposed, but as a rule of thumb, if your iOS device can update to a newer software release, you should do so as soon as possible to stay secure.

Convenience — that’s the whole pitch. A well-built horoscope platform can cut out the noise of scattered websites, manual bookings, and messy screenshot folders, putting your daily ritual right where you need it most. A 2025 Pew Research Center report found that 3 in 10 U.S. adults engage with star-sign guidance at least yearly, though most say they do so mainly for fun rather than for major life decisions.​

That distinction matters more than people give it credit for. The most useful tools work best as prompts for self-reflection, scheduling sessions, tracking themes, or anchoring a daily ritual — not as replacements for professional support, and definitely not as certainty machines.

Quick take: A good horoscope platform saves time, centralises your cosmic check-ins, and makes it effortless to stay consistent. A poor one drowns you in generic output, aggressive upsells, vague predictions, or subscription terms that were clearly written to confuse.

What These Platforms Actually Make Easier

The biggest win is convenience — full stop. Instead of bouncing between scattered sites, old screenshots, and manually scheduled calls, everything lives in one place: birth-chart details, daily summaries, personal notes, consultations.

Honestly, for a lot of readers, the practical payoff isn’t “knowing the future.” It’s having a structured nudge for reflection — a recurring habit, a simple way to think through mood, timing, and priorities alongside tools like journaling apps for self-reflection.

What that usually looks like in practice:

• Daily check-ins: short horoscope summaries, transit alerts, or reminders
• Faster access to live sessions, especially via chat, call, or appointment booking
• One dashboard for birth details, saved reports, payment history, and past consultations
• Variety — because some services mix cosmic guidance with tarot, numerology, or reflection prompts

Primary Functions That Matter Most

Not every platform is built the same way, so separating genuinely useful capabilities from filler saves a lot of frustration later. These are the ones that tend to make or break the experience.

1. Birth-chart setup

Most platforms start by asking for your birth date, time, and place. That’s standard. When the service supports deeper chart-based work, that initial setup usually shapes how personalised everything feels going forward.

2. Daily or weekly material

This is what most casual users care about first — no two ways about it. A well-designed platform makes short updates easy to skim while still giving enough context for people who want more than one-liners.

3. Live consultation options

Some services include live chat with an astrologer, voice calls, or bookable sessions with practitioners. That’s genuinely useful if you’d rather get a direct answer than wade through a general library. Honestly, that alone makes it worth trying for a lot of people.

4. Saved history and notes

Good tools reduce friction by keeping previous sessions, favourite practitioners, and your record of past interactions in one spot. Jumping between messages, old screenshots, and scattered websites? Nobody’s got time for that.

5. In-app learning material

Some platforms also publish explainers, FAQs, and introductory guides. When done well, this helps beginners understand chart terminology, compatibility language, and why personalised sessions feel so different from the generic daily stuff.

Before installing anything, check the Google Play Data safety section if you’re on Android — then compare it with the privacy language inside the listing itself. This site’s guide to how to choose safe mobile apps is worth reading before committing to any paid service.

Busy schedule, phone in hand, no interest in travelling anywhere — this format just fits. People who live far from in-person practitioners, or who prefer handling everything digitally, tend to get the most out of it.

Does your goal lean more toward regular reflection than constant prediction? Pairing one of these platforms with habits from digital wellbeing and screen-time guides keeps the whole thing purposeful rather than obsessive.

Good signs you’ll get real value from one:

• Quick access during a commute, break, or evening wind-down
• Wanting written summaries before deciding whether to book a live session
• Comparing styles — chart-based depth versus short daily prompts
• Keeping everything (reminders, personal notes, saved reports) in one spot

Where They Fall Short

Consistency is the problem. Some platforms deliver thoughtful, well-structured material; others recycle copy, lean on weak personalisation, or push pressure-based upsells until you want to throw your phone across the room.

They’re also a poor match if you want strictly evidence-based planning. Treating these tools as reflective prompts — rather than substitutes for financial, medical, legal, or mental-health guidance — keeps expectations somewhere realistic.

Then there’s the overuse issue. If checking in starts making you delay decisions, second-guess perfectly normal plans, or feel more anxious than settled, stepping back makes sense. Lighter alternatives like mood tracking or simple diary tools might serve you better at that point.

How to Choose the Right Platform

Branding doesn’t matter nearly as much as fit. Start with the workflow you actually want, then judge the service against privacy, cost, clarity, and usability.

Android users should keep Google Play Protect enabled and avoid sideloading unknown packages just to access premium tiers. If a service asks for broad permissions that don’t match its core function, review those carefully against your own standards for understanding app permissions on phones.

Simple decision tree

Run through these before downloading anything:

• Only want a daily check-in? Go lightweight — clear free options, minimal notifications
• Want detailed sessions? Prioritise chart depth, readable reports, and transparent pricing
• Want live consultations? Check availability windows, session length, refund rules, and whether practitioner profiles feel specific rather than generic
• Privacy matters more than variety? Pick the platform with the clearest data disclosures and the smallest permission footprint

Implementation Checklist Before You Pay

Read the free experience first — before starting any trial.

• Check how often the platform pushes upgrades or timed offers
• Review the listing for data handling, permissions, and support options
• Confirm whether charges are per session, monthly, or tied to in-app credits
• Look for a visible cancellation path before subscribing
• Save receipts and session history if you plan to compare value over time

Cost, Privacy, and Trust Trade-Offs

Free tiers often feel convenient at first. But they tend to hide the best material behind subscriptions, per-minute calls, or in-app credits. That doesn’t automatically make them bad — it just means judging value based on how often you’ll genuinely use the service.

On iPhone, Apple explains that users can manage or cancel eligible subscriptions through account subscription settings, which is worth reviewing before starting any trial that renews automatically. If the charge runs through a third-party provider rather than Apple, the cancellation path may differ — so read the billing terms carefully before you commit.

Troubleshooting Common Frustrations

The sessions feel too generic

Try a different platform style. Some services are built for broad daily material; others focus on chart-based depth or live practitioner access. Worth shopping around.

The platform is useful but too distracting

Cut notifications, remove widget clutter, and limit usage to one daily check-in. The goal should be clarity — not constant interruption.

You’re unsure whether a paid plan is worth it

Stick with the free tier for at least a week or two, then honestly compare what you actually used against what the subscription adds. Simple as that.

You’re worried about privacy

Re-check the listing, permissions, and account settings. If the data request feels excessive for a horoscope service, skip it and pick something simpler.

Skip it entirely if you want strictly evidence-based planning with zero interpretive layer. Smart move, too, to avoid these platforms when they increase anxiety, drive impulsive spending, or start replacing your own judgement in decisions that need qualified professional help.

Key Takeaways

• These platforms work best as convenience tools for reflection, routine, and easier access
• The right pick depends on whether you want quick daily material, deeper chart interpretation, or live sessions
• Privacy checks, subscription terms, and permission requests matter as much as the sessions themselves
• If a platform adds pressure, confusion, or overspending, it’s the wrong fit — no matter how polished it looks

FAQ

Are astrology apps accurate?
Depends what you mean by accurate. As a reflective tool or themed guide, some users find real value in them; as a certainty machine, the experience is likely to disappoint.

Do I need my exact birth time?
For chart-based functions, an exact or near-exact time can matter. For simple daily horoscope use, it’s often less critical.

Are free tiers enough?
They can be, especially if you only want short daily material. Paid plans make more sense when you genuinely use deeper reports or live sessions.

Can these platforms replace an in-person astrologer?
For convenience, sometimes yes. For depth, it depends on whether the service offers strong practitioner access — and whether you actually prefer digital communication.

How do I know if a horoscope service is safe?
Check the listing, privacy disclosures, permissions, billing terms, and support options before installing or paying.

Do these platforms usually include more than horoscopes?
Some do. Combinations like tarot, numerology, compatibility tools, or general self-reflection prompts aren’t unusual.

What’s the biggest red flag?
Vague material paired with aggressive upsells. If a platform keeps pushing urgency, extra credits, or murky renewals — move on.

Can I cancel a subscription easily?
Usually, but the exact process depends on whether billing runs through Apple, Google Play, or the provider directly. Always check that before starting a trial.

Microsoft has stopped automatically installing the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows PCs with M365 apps, after initially planning to roll it out to users by default.

The app was supposed to act as a central hub for Copilot, consolidating AI features across tools like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint into a single location.

However, instead of letting users choose, Microsoft had planned to push it directly onto devices, something many users have opposed in the past.

What changed with Microsoft’s Copilot rollout

Microsoft has now temporarily disabled the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on eligible devices. This update was confirmed through the company’s Microsoft 365 message center, though no clear reason was shared for the sudden pause.

Earlier, the rollout had already started in December and was expected to expand to more users outside the European Economic Area. Even then, IT admins had the option to opt out, while users in the EEA were excluded by default.

If the rollout resumes in the future, the app will show up in your Start Menu and be enabled automatically. For now, that plan is on hold.

What if the app is already on your PC

If you already have the Microsoft 365 Copilot app installed, nothing changes. Microsoft is not removing it from your system, but you can uninstall it yourself if you want.

Admins can still deploy the app manually using other methods, and Microsoft is expected to share more updates before restarting the rollout.

Microsoft has not explained why it paused the rollout, but the move comes as the company faces growing pressure to be more careful about how it introduces AI features into Windows.

This pause also comes after a few awkward Copilot moments for Microsoft. In one instance, a Windows 11 bug ended up uninstalling the app on its own, which some users actually welcomed.

In another case, Copilot even showed up on LG TVs with no clear way to remove it, highlighting how aggressively Microsoft has pushed the feature.

For now, this is a rare step back because Microsoft is giving you more control over whether Copilot stays on your PC or not.

As immigration became one of the defining focuses of Donald Trump’s second administration, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has taken center stage. Under the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill Act, DHS, which oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and several other agencies, received more than $80 billion in additional funding, and in January the agency announced that it had hired more than 12,000 new agents.

Even as cities like Los Angeles and Minneapolis have seen a surge of immigration officers descend upon them, DHS has maintained a high level of opacity around its operations. Officers carrying out raids and arrests are often masked and driving in unmarked cars. As enforcement has pulled in federal law enforcement personnel from across the government, it has become difficult to tell what agency a given officer works for, let alone who they actually are. Though DHS has been combative with the media, ICE agents themselves have been mostly quiet, even if some have mixed feelings about their work and where the agency is headed.

Karl Loftus, an independent journalist who runs the Instagram account @deadcrab_films, started a new project following the immigration surge in Minneapolis called Confessions of an ICE Agent. There, he publishes interviews with people who work in immigration enforcement across DHS. This includes agents and officers with the two main divisions of ICE—Homeland Security Investigations and Enforcement and Removal Operations—as well as CBP officers. He offers them anonymity and a place to speak their minds outside the structures of traditional media, and in return gets a glimpse of what the people inside the agency are experiencing, creating an archive of this moment in its history.

In one post, a biracial agent speaking shortly after Trump announced that he would be replacing DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told Loftus he believed Noem was a “DEI” hire. In another, an HSI agent called the people leading the US government “imbeciles,” saying they were “disgusted by nearly all of them.” Another HSI agent expressed concerns about DHS colleagues violating the law, and complained of having to pause investigation into child sexual abuse cases to focus on immigration work. “If they gave child exploitation cases a fraction of the attention, funding, resources, personnel, analytical support, etc. that they’re now giving immigration enforcement, we could do so much good,” they said.

WIRED spoke to Loftus about the public response to a polarizing topic, how he vets his sources, and the pressure to pick a side. A DHS spokesperson responded to WIRED’s request for comment saying that they cannot verify anonymous interviews but that DHS and its Homeland Security Investigations unit “is not slowing down and remains committed to all aspects of its mission, leveraging a whole-of-government approach to address threats to public safety and national security.”

This conversation has been edited for length and clarity.

WIRED: Before this project, your account mostly focused on things like disaster recovery after Hurricane Helene and similar topics. How did you start working on ICE?

Karl Loftus: In 2018 I was a volunteer in North Carolina during Hurricane Florence. I was there during the hurricane for four days doing search and rescue. That kind of started my passion for disaster response. I had been in Jamaica for seven weeks responding to Hurricane Melissa, working with a handful of different NGOs. I worked with Global Empowerment Mission repairing roofs of hospitals and medical centers to try to get the medical infrastructure back on track. I worked with World Central Kitchen. I was there documenting. I had planned to go to Wisconsin for the holidays, which is where I’m from, to visit some family, but I ended up staying in Jamaica. In early January, I finally made it up to the Midwest to see some family, and that’s when the Renee Good shooting happened. I was like, “Man, I know shit’s about to go insane the following day, and there’s going to be protests and riots and all this stuff.” So I decided to make the trip to Minneapolis.
