In the face of rising competition in the artificial intelligence (AI) market, Chinese tech giant,&nbsp;Baidu (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>), is preparing to roll out its next-generation AI model later this year.
What Happened: Baidu is set to release the next version of its AI model, Ernie 5.0,&nbsp;in the second half of&nbsp;2025, reported <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/12/china-tech-giant-baidu-to-release-next-generation-ai-model-this-year-as-deepseek-shakes-up-market.html">CNBC</a> on Thursday. This development comes amid the disruption caused by new entrants like DeepSeek in the AI industry.
The forthcoming model termed a &#8220;foundation model,&#8221; is expected to show significant improvements in multimodal capabilities, enabling the processing and transformation of various data types, including text, video, images, and audio. Chinese&nbsp;AI chatbots from startups and big-tech firms&nbsp;such as Alibaba and ByteDance have outpaced Baidu&#8217;s Ernie despite it being among the first ones to be launched. 
The current Ernie model, Generation 4, was unveiled in October 2023, followed by an upgraded &#8220;turbo&#8221; version, Ernie 4.0,&nbsp;in August 2024. Meanwhile, in a WeChat&nbsp;post today, Baidu also stated that the existing chatbot will be available at no cost for individual users starting in April, reported Bloomberg. This will accompanied by a free advanced search function to offer improved reasoning skills and seamless tool integration to provide expert-level responses.

Why It Matters: The launch of Baidu&#8217;s next-generation AI model comes at a critical juncture as Chinese companies strive to create advanced AI models to rival OpenAI and other U.S.-based firms. On Tuesday, at the World Governments Summit&nbsp;in Dubai, Baidu CEO Robin Li stressed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43616825/deepseeks-success-just-the-start-more-ai-funding-still-very-much-required-says-baidu-ceo-you-just-dont-know-when-and-where-innovations-come-from">importance of persistent investment </a>in data centers and cloud infrastructure, despite the cost-effectiveness of AI models like DeepSeek. 
He emphasized the potential for cost reductions in foundation models, stating, &#8220;The inference cost [of foundation&nbsp;models] basically can be reduced&nbsp;by more than 90% over&nbsp;12 months,&#8221; stated Li. 
The CEO highlighted the need for more investment to develop smarter models, a statement made in the context of DeepSeek&#8217;s recognition for creating language models that perform comparably to top systems like OpenAI's GPT, but require significantly less computing power.
On Tuesday, Barclays maintained its &#8216;Equalweight&#8217; rating on Baidu stock but raised the stock price target to $95 from $83 as a part of a re-rating of the broader Chinese ADRs.
The launch of DeepSeek&#8217;s revolutionary R1 model rattled the U.S. stock market in late January. NASDAQ lost 3.1%, indicating its highest one-day percentage decline since Dec 18, while chip giant, Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) lost close to $600 billion in market capitalization.

After DeepSeek Shook Wall Street, China's Baidu Gears Up For AI Battle With Next-Gen Ernie 5.0 Launch In Late 2025

In a significant cost-saving move, oil behemoth&nbsp;Chevron Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) has announced plans to slash its workforce by up to 20%.
What Happened: Chevron announced on Wednesday that it intends to commence major layoffs this year, aiming to complete the majority by the end of 2026. The move is part of a broader cost-cutting plan, with the company targeting a reduction of $2 billion to $3 billion by the end of 2026, reported <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/12/chevron-will-slash-up-to-20percent-of-its-workforce-as-part-of-cost-cutting-plan.html">CNBC</a>
With Chevron&#8217;s total employee count of 45,600 as of December 2023, a 20% cut could result in the severance of over&nbsp;9,000 workers. Vice Chairman Mark Nelson stated that the company intends to offer complete support to the outgoing staff during the transition. &#8220;But responsible leadership requires taking&nbsp;these steps to improve the&nbsp;long-term competitiveness of our company&nbsp;for our people, our shareholders&nbsp;and our communities,&#8221; explained Nelson.

Why It Matters: This decision comes on the heels of Chevron&#8217;s fourth-quarter earnings report, which, despite beating revenue estimates, disappointed on adjusted net earnings. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43399866/chevrons-free-cash-flow-outlook-tops-estimates-goldman-sachs-sees-upside">The company&#8217;s revenues</a> and other income of $52.23 billion exceeded the consensus of $46.75 billion. However, its adjusted net earnings were $3.63 billion, with an adjusted EPS of $2.06, missing the consensus of $2.11.
Despite this, Goldman Sachs analyst Neil Mehta observed that at 3,349 MBOE/d, Chevron&#8217;s production volumes almost matched their expectations. The company plans further cost reduction even as it foresees a 6% annual growth in its production over the next two years on the back of new wells in Kazakhstan and other nations.
The workforce reduction is a part of Chevron&#8217;s strategic move to improve its competitiveness in a sustained way amid these financial challenges. According to a New York Times report in January, Chevron&#8217;s cost reduction strategies include hiring engineers and geologists in locations with cheaper labor such as in India, to support activities in the U.S. and other countries.
Despite President Donald Trump&#8216;s agenda of &#8216;drill, baby, drill&#8217;, Wall Street expects the U.S. oil producers to be conservative with spending. Senior portfolio manager at Tortoise Capital, Rob Thummel stated, "We expect most oil and gas producers to remain disciplined with capital expenditures. However, less regulation will make it easier to increase drilling activity if commodity prices reach levels that are too high."
Following the announcement, Chevron shares lost over 1% yesterday. The stock has gained nearly 3% over the past year.

Chevron Announces About 20% Workforce Reduction In Cost-Saving Initiative: 'Responsible Leadership Requires Taking These Steps'

Foxconn Technology Group, also known as Hon Hai Precision (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HNHPF#OTC">HNHPF</a>)  Apple Inc.&#8216;s primary iPhone manufacturer, confirmed Wednesday it would consider acquiring Renault&#8217;s stake in Nissan Motor Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) as part of a broader strategy to expand its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43566305/deal-dispatch-pharmchem-forgoes-banker-to-run-sale-tgi-fridays-sells-19-restaurants-for-3-1-million">electric vehicle manufacturing business</a>.
What Happened: Chairman Young Liu revealed the company has held discussions about acquiring Nissan shares, though emphasized that any potential stake purchase would be contingent on securing EV manufacturing partnerships with either Nissan or Renault, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f6a9cfb0-edba-4336-a2c1-e67238c5ccea">reported</a> the Financial Times. 
&#8220;If [taking a stake] is necessary for co-operation, we will consider it, but buying shares is not our main goal,&#8221; Liu said.
The Taiwanese contract manufacturer is targeting an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report">announcement of a cooperation deal</a> within two months, with Renault, Nissan, and Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) among potential partners. The news sent Nissan shares down 6.3% in Tokyo trading.

Why It Matters: This development comes as Renault looks to divest half of its 36% stake in Nissan, currently held in a French trust, following their alliance restructuring in 2023.
Former Nissan executive and current Foxconn EV division chief strategy officer Jun Seki reportedly met with Renault CEO Luca De Meo in December to discuss the potential share acquisition.
The talks emerge amid broader industry shifts, with Nissan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report">recently ending merger discussions</a> with Honda that would have created the world&#8217;s fourth-largest automotive group.
Nissan faces mounting pressure from Chinese competition and has announced plans to cut 9,000 jobs and reduce production capacity by 20% as part of its turnaround strategy.
For Foxconn, securing a deal with either Renault or Nissan would mark its first partnership with a traditional automaker outside Taiwan, potentially accelerating its expansion into EV contract manufacturing beyond its current partnerships with startups.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk on Thursday said that he is unaware of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43683937/teslas-400-million-armored-cybertruck-deal-under-fire-as-short-seller-jim-chanos-questions-elon-musks-doge-role-in-cutting-wasteful-government-spending">potential contract for $400 million</a> to provide armored vehicles to the government.
What Happened: &#8220;I'm pretty sure Tesla isn't getting $400M. No one mentioned it to me, at least,&#8221; Musk said in a post reply on social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">I'm pretty sure Tesla isn't getting $400M. No one mentioned it to me, at least.
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1889925100918677690?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 13, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The U.S. State Department&#8217;s procurement forecast for 2025 had previously included a potential $400 million armored electric vehicle purchase from Tesla starting in the fourth quarter of 2025 and spanning five years. 
However, the department has now dropped the name of the Musk-lead EV company from the document, instead choosing not to name a manufacturer, after it raised <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43683937/teslas-400-million-armored-cybertruck-deal-under-fire-as-short-seller-jim-chanos-questions-elon-musks-doge-role-in-cutting-wasteful-government-spending">conflict of interest concerns</a> provided Musk is now leading the Department of Government Efficiency in the Trump presidency. 
The document, however, continues to list planned armored BMW X5/X7 purchases for $40 million as well as other armored sedan and EV purchases from unnamed manufacturers. All these contracts, however, are only in the planning stage.
Why It Matters: Tesla makes no military vehicles. However, the company touts the latest addition to its lineup- the Cybertruck- to be bulletproof. Musk has previously even termed the vehicle as the &#8220;finest in apocalypse defense technology.&#8221;
The premium variant of the Cybertruck is priced at around $100,000, and a $400 million contract would have got the government nearly 4000 Cybertrucks and provided a big boost to Musk&#8217;s EV company after it reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43327268/tesla-expects-50-surge-in-energy-storage-deployments-for-2025-after-segment-revenue-doubles-in-q4">drop in revenue from its automotive segment last year</a>.
In 2024, the company reported a 6% drop in automotive revenue to $77.07 billion following a drop in annual deliveries and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41443856/tesla-offers-discounts-of-up-to-4k-on-select-model-3-y-vehicles-as-it-looks-to-avert-1st-ever-declin">discounting aimed at increasing demand</a>.
