Lenovo AI Now Revolutionizes Learning and Teaching Experience at Hong Kong School, Ignites Education Landscape Transformation
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 13 May 2025 - Lenovo today announced the successful deployment of its on-device large language model (LLM) solution, Lenovo AI Now, at Chong Gene Hang College in Hong Kong. It represents a significant milestone in the modernization of education in Hong Kong and the region, allowing students to access personalized learning resources generated from their own curriculum materials, and enabling teachers to focus on enhancing teaching experience through easing their administrative workload.
"Lenovo AI Now is fundamentally changing how we approach education technology," said Serena Cheung, General Manager, Lenovo Hong Kong and Macau. "Unlike generic AI platforms that rely on internet-sourced information, our on-device solution ensures students access only verified, curriculum-aligned content. Streamlining the operational work allows teachers to focus more on enhancing their lessons and engaging with students. Schools can implement the system in minutes rather than months, making advanced AI accessible to educational institutions of all sizes."
Facilitating Students in Self-Studying
With Lenovo AI Now, Chong Gene Hang College allows students to instantly build a knowledge base using its existing digital resources, including textbooks, syllabus materials, notes, and past examination papers from the last three years. By leveraging this data, Lenovo AI Now delivers several key advantages for students:
By using the materials aligning school's teaching strategy and policy, the application eliminates concerns about inaccurate information and saving time from fact check.
The application can accelerate learning path in self-study or self-reflection by generating key points, questions and answers analysis, customized exercises based on past papers and previous teaching materials
Lenovo AI Now's personalized approach to facilitating self-paced learning for students also improves students' independent learning ability.
Streamlining Teachers' Work to Enhance Teaching Experience
For teachers, the application can reduce administrative work from them on managing on-going announcement, guidelines and changes from government. It allows school to quickly react and to stay close communications with students and their parents. As a results, teachers can focus more on "education" including enhancing course design, broadening the students' knowledge through in-depth academic discussion, which is more than "teaching".
During the trial period, several dozen students and teachers are using the solution, and they generally find the platform easy to navigate. Teachers reported a 40% reduction in time spent on supporting and individual tutoring, as students have more source to get assistance in learning. This self-directed approach motivates students to learn and they even requesting more supplementary materials, resulting in improved learning efficiency.
This ease of use has significantly boosted student engagement and interest in learning while enhancing teaching convenience. Many students have shared that the Lenovo AI Now platform has transformed their learning especially in exam preparation. They appreciate the ability to generate practice questions on topics they find challenging, receive immediate feedback, and focus their study time more effectively. It feels like having a personal tutor available whenever they need assistance.
"This collaboration with Lenovo represents a significant advancement in our digital transformation journey," said Jimmy Chan, Vice-Principal, Chong Gene Hang College. "By implementing AI Now across select subjects, we're providing our students with tools that not only enhance their learning experience but also prepare them for a future where AI literacy will be essential. This demonstrates our commitment to educational innovation."
Chong Gene Hang College is currently utilizing Lenovo AI Now for English, Mathematics, and Science, while establishing a dedicated AI-powered self-study facility. This initiative sets a new benchmark for educational technology integration in Hong Kong schools. In the future, the school plans to explore using AI Now to develop personalized teaching plans for individual students by analyzing their school reports, attendance, and extracurricular activities. To ensure the security of personal information, a highly secure platform will be essential for this implementation, making a local LLM like AI Now crucial.

India market regulator reconsiders intraday limits for equity derivatives, sources say
A top panel of India's market regulator is meeting on Tuesday to consider placing stricter limits on positions in index derivatives in the Indian markets, two sources with direct knowledge of the matter said. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is looking at the rules on equity derivatives after the regulator temporarily banned U.S. high frequency trading firm Jane Street from the Indian markets saying some of its trading strategies were manipulative and left retail investors with losses. SEBI's secondary market advisory committee, tasked with framing equity market policies, will discuss and make recommendations on intraday limits for index derivatives to prevent large traders and trading firms from accumulating significant exposures, the sources said. They declined to be named because they were not authorised to speak to the media. In February, SEBI proposed an intraday limit of 10 billion Indian rupees ($114.89 million) for positions taken in index derivatives but scrapped the plan following opposition from the large market making firms. Instead, SEBI asked exchanges to monitor trading firms' intraday positions. The panel will also discuss the maximum allowable exposure an individual trading member can hold in equity derivatives and the exchange monitoring mechanism, sources said. Its recommendation will be put to the market regulator's board before a final decision is made. SEBI did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment. In May, SEBI set the total option exposure for a firm across its entire portfolio at the end of the trading day at 15 billion rupees, without specifying limits on trading members. India's equity derivatives market accounts for nearly 60% of global trading volumes, although retail investors have recorded large losses. In the 12 months ended March 31, 2024, retail traders losses totalled 524 billion rupees, a SEBI study showed. In contrast, proprietary traders, who make trades for financial institutions, made gross profits of 330 billion rupees over the same period, while foreign investors made 280 billion rupees. SEBI has already increased the minimum lot size and reduced the number of derivatives contract expiries to control trading. The additional steps being considered are part of the structural reforms to manage market risks and curb the activity of large firms in the Indian derivatives market, one of the sources said. The ban on Jane Street was lifted last month after the firm deposited $567 million in an account that gives SEBI rights over the money until it has completed its investigation.

The magical comeback: Kaspersky and BI.ZONE report new PipeMagic activity in the GCC and Latin America
Kaspersky's Global Research and Analysis Team (GReAT) in collaboration with Vulnerability Research experts, observed new 2025 activity associated with the PipeMagic backdoor originally discovered in December 2022. The backdoor has expanded its attack geography: initially observed in Asia, and afterwards detected in Saudi Arabia in late 2024. Recent attacks show sustained interest in Saudi organizations, alongside expansion into new regions, notably manufacturing companies in Brazil. The researchers tracked the malware's evolution, identified key changes in the operators' tactics, and conducted a technical analysis of Microsoft vulnerability CVE-2025-29824. This vulnerability was the only one among the 121 patched in April 2025 that was actively exploited in the wild. It was specifically targeted by an exploit integrated into the PipeMagic infection chain. The vulnerability allowed privilege escalation in the operating system due to a flaw in the logging driver. One of the 2025 campaign attacks leveraged a Microsoft Help Index File, which serves two purposes: decrypting and executing shellcode. The shellcode is encrypted using the RC4 stream cipher with a hexadecimal key. Once decrypted, the code is executed via the WinAPI EnumDisplayMonitors function, allowing dynamic resolution of system API addresses through process injection. Researchers also identified updated versions of the PipeMagic loader masquerading as a ChatGPT client. This application resembles the one used in the 2024 attacks on Saudi organizations — sharing the same Tokio and Tauri frameworks, the same libaes library version, and demonstrating similar file structures and behavior. 'The reemergence of PipeMagic confirms that this malware remains active and continues to evolve. The 2024 versions introduced enhancements that improve persistence within victims' infrastructures and facilitate lateral movement within targeted networks, ' comments Leonid Bezvershenko, senior security researcher at Kaspersky GReAT. 'In recent years, has become an increasingly popular target for cybercriminals, particularly financially motivated actors. They are leveraging zero-day vulnerabilities in this and other drivers to escalate privileges and conceal post-exploitation activities. To mitigate such threats, we recommend using EDR tools, which enable both early and post-exploitation detection of suspicious behavior, ' notes Pavel Blinnikov, Vulnerability Research Lead, PipeMagic is a backdoor first discovered by Kaspersky in 2022 during an investigation into a malicious campaign involving RansomExx. Victims at the time included industrial companies in Southeast Asia. The attackers exploited the CVE-2017-0144 vulnerability to gain access to internal infrastructure. The backdoor supports two operational modes — functioning either as a full-featured remote access tool or as a network proxy, enabling execution of a wide range of commands. In October 2024, a new iteration of PipeMagic was observed in attacks against organizations in Saudi Arabia, using a fake ChatGPT agent application as a lure.

Faraday Future launches 'EAI + Crypto' dual-flywheel & dual-bridge ecosystem
Dubai, United Arab Emirates – Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc, a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, has officially launched its 'EAI + Crypto' Dual-Flywheel & Dual-Bridge Ecosystem Strategy — marking the beginning of a new chapter in AI mobility and Web3 integration. This initiative integrates Embodied AI (EAI) with the explosive growth of the crypto asset economy to create a two-way, independently operating circular growth engine between Web2 and Web3, positioning FF at the forefront of the next era in global industrial and financial evolution. A new growth paradigm Faraday Future believes that AI represents the next great leap in productivity, while Crypto and Web3 signify a revolution in the relations of production. Together, these forces offer a once-in-decades opportunity for transformation — a meta-chemistry that FF aims to drive through its newly launched strategy. 'The next decade could be a super long bull cycle for the crypto market,' said Ian Calderon, FF Co-Creation Officer and Founding Board Member of the California Blockchain Working Group. 'FF is building a dual-engine circular growth system — combining the long-cycle, high-value EAI EV ecosystem with the short-cycle, high-velocity Crypto ecosystem. These two flywheels will empower each other, redefining what's possible in mobility and financial innovation.' Building the bridge between Web2 and Web3 FF's Dual-Bridge Strategy positions the Company as one of the first U.S.-listed public companies directly connecting real-world business operations with on-chain assets. Plans are underway to launch the EAI Vehicle Chain, enabling tokenized vehicle sales, crypto-based deposits, and Web3-native user engagement — while leveraging blockchain technology to create a decentralized and transparent mobility economy. 'The Dual-Flywheel & Dual-Bridge Strategy reflects our deep insights into the future of the global economy,' said YT Jia, Founder & Co-CEO of Faraday Future. 'FF is not just transitioning into a Web3 era — we are architecting it. This is how we deliver exponential value creation for our stockholders.' A new crypto infrastructure for capital markets FF also officially announced the C10 Index, a market-cap-weighted basket of the world's top 10 crypto assets (excluding stablecoins), calculated from midnight Pacific Time on August 16, 2025, with a base value of 1,000. The Index will be tracked in real-time on and the FF App. Accompanying the Index, the FFAI C10 Treasury is being launched — targeting $500M to $1B in initial crypto asset purchases, with a dedicated $30M funding round completed or nearly complete. Assets will be allocated using an 80% passive, 20% active strategy. The treasury is designed to provide sustainable returns, with staking yields estimated at 3%–5%, creating stable income that can fund product innovation, stock buybacks, and further asset growth. FF is also preparing to apply for a C10 ETF license, aiming to expand public access to the value potential of this portfolio. The Crypto Flywheel strategy — operated through a wholly owned and independently managed subsidiary, FFAI Crypto Treasury and Bridging Holdings Inc. — is expected to dramatically enhance FF's income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow. With on-chain assets serving as both reserves and flexible capital, the strategy enables FF to generate stable income through staking, reduce reliance on high-cost financing, and improve net asset value and structure. It aims to accelerate product development and market expansion through a 1/3–1/3–1/3 profit reinvestment model. FF's crypto and EV businesses are operated under separate legal and financial structures to ensure risk isolation, operational independence, and asset transparency. Digital assets will be held by third-party custodians and will be fully verifiable on-chain. The structure is designed to allow strategic synergies without cross-subsidization, ensuring both lines of business can flourish independently — while reinforcing each other. With this launch, Faraday Future offers investors access to potential dual benefits from the AI mobility and crypto asset markets. This revolutionary move supports the Company's long-standing commitment to maximize stockholder value in a future-forward and sustainable manner. *Source: AETOSWire
