NEW YORK, Jan 20, 2026 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – VIVI PROJECT (formerly LEGENDARY HUMANITY) announces a major update and rebranding. The project utilizes the latest 3D scanning technology “SCAI” to digitally archive humanity’s cultural heritage, providing training data for AI and building a new token economy based on RWA (Real World Assets).Background and Project EvolutionPreviously, “LEGENDARY HUMANITY” aimed to digitize humanity’s greatest masterpieces using cutting-edge technology, teaching AI about “humanity’s magnificence” to preserve its value for future generations.With this update, the project is renamed “VIVI PROJECT.” Moving beyond mere archiving, it will challenge the creation of new value in the Web3 era as an “RWA token project” building a unique economic ecosystem backed by real-world assets (RWA).The Four Pillars of the “RWA Ecosystem” Provided by VIVI PROJECTDigitization via High-Precision 3D Scanning Technology “SCAI:DIGITAL LUMINOUS Technology” Digitizing humanity’s treasures…

HONG KONG, January 20, 2026 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In 2026, the artificial intelligence (AI) industry reached another critical turning point. Demis Hassabis, Nobel Prize winner and CEO of Google DeepMind, made a pivotal assertion: the true trillion-dollar opportunity in AI lies not in computing chips, but in “Physical AI”—systems capable of perceiving, understanding, and transforming the real world. Having earned a Nobel Prize for his breakthrough work on AlphaFold, which validated AI’s scientific value, Hassabis’ latest outlook has attracted widespread attention in capital markets. It has also brought 51WORLD (6651.HK), a Hong Kong-listed company focused on Physical AI, into the spotlight.Hassabis pointed out that current AI faces a bottleneck of “intelligence fragmentation”: while excelling at digital tasks such as text generation, it struggles to grasp basic physical laws like gravity and spatial continuity. The missing “world model” stands as the fina…

Doha, Qatar, Jan 20, 2026 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) — the world leader in unmanned systems – and Barzan Holdings, Qatar’s national defence and security leader, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on the development of advanced Battle Management software capabilities. The signing took place on Monday during the Doha International Maritime Defence Exhibition and Conference (DIMDEX).The MOU provides a framework for cooperation between GA-ASI, GA-Intelligence, and Barzan Holdings to develop software solutions that enhance theater-level situational awareness and enable the efficient processing, correlation, and dissemination of intelligence. These capabilities are intended to support faster, higher-quality decision-making in complex, multi-domain operational environments.For General Atomics, the agreement underscores the strategic importance of collaboration with Barzan Holdings and the State of Qatar.

SAN DIEGO, Jan 19, 2026 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In its latest demonstration of advanced autonomy development, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) successfully executed a mission autonomy flight using its MQ-20 Avenger® jet equipped with the latest government reference autonomy software. The test included a live engagement between the MQ-20 and an aggressor aircraft flown by an onboard human pilot, highlighting the advanced maturity of autonomous systems, seamless integration of mission elements, and the ability of autonomy to leverage onboard sensors to make independent decisions and execute complex tasks.GA-ASI’s Avenger jet has served as a surrogate for Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) for more than five years, both before and since the arrival of GA-ASI’s purpose-built XQ-67A and YFQ-42A aircraft. The recent Avenger demo began with planning in the Human-Machine Interface (HMI), followed by loading the mission profile onto the MQ-20. Once airborne, the team confirmed…

HONG KONG, January 19, 2026 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – The 19th Asian Financial Forum (AFF), co-organised by the Hong Kong SAR Government and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), will take place on Monday, 26 and Tuesday, 27 January 2026 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).

TSUKUBA, Japan, Jan 19, 2026 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Materials research generates vast amounts of data, but the information often exists in manufacturer-specific formats and the terminology is inconsistent, making it difficult to aggregate, compare, and reuse. Traditionally, researchers have had to spend considerable time on tedious tasks, such as format conversion, metadata assignment, and characteristics extraction. These extra steps can make researchers reluctant to share data, hindering the advancement of data-driven work. The problem is made even more acute by the field’s increasing reliance on AI-driven materials discovery, which requires high-quality datasets.A highly flexible data system automatically interprets a variety of experimental data, and stores it in a format with enhanced readability for materials informatics.To address this problem, researchers at the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) have developed Research Data Express (RDE), a highly flexible data m…
