The US Democratic Party wants to push for a ban on super AI: 20 years in prison for individuals and forced dissolution of companies is comparable to illegal development of nuclear weapons

According to Financial News Overseas Information, on November 4, local time, US Representative Asamin Ansari (Arizona) wrote on a social networking platform: “At the top of the agenda for the first day, the Democratic Party needs to suspend the development of advanced artificial intelligence, regulate the uncontrolled industry, and ban artificial superintelligence.” This post was posted less than 24 hours after the Democratic Party took back control of both houses of the Senate and the House of Representatives in the midterm elections. Notably, Ansari's call for a “ban on artificial superintelligence” was not an impromptu proposal. The Senate version S.5493 was proposed by Bernie Sanders on September 23, and the House version H.R. 10538 was proposed by Casal on September 24. Currently, they are all “pending” and have not passed the committee's review.

GAAP gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of global product revenue) was 88% in the third quarter of 2026, compared to 86% in the same period last year.

The year-on-year increase in gross margin was mainly due to the increase in the share of Baiyue Ze® global sales revenue in the company's product portfolio. At the same time, benefiting from increased production efficiency, the production costs of Baiyue Ze® and Baizean® decreased, but this positive impact was offset by the loss of $22 million in non-cash intangible asset impairment associated with the company's decision to stop promoting Prybeche®. After adjustments (excluding depreciation and amortization, and excluding impairment losses described above), gross margin on product sales increased to 90% from 86% in the same period last year.
