第一則:抗議浪潮席捲歐洲!示威升級成暴力衝突
歐洲多國爆發大規模抗議。法國原先因教育問題的抗議活動,於 10 月 17 日上升至暴力衝突,示威者洗劫商店,甚至縱火燒毀百年市政廳,警方單日逮捕近 2,400 人。總統馬克宏譴責暴力,強調將追究肇事者責任。
義大利米蘭也因不滿公共服務不彰和生活成本上升問題,出現示威者砸毀並搶劫商店的情況。阿爾巴尼亞民眾則因不滿政府貪腐、就業機會不足而走上街頭,要求總理拉瑪下台,但拉瑪拒絕辭職,並稱抗議恐危及阿爾巴尼亞加入歐盟的目標。
Wave of Protests Sweeps Across Europe! Demonstrations Turn Violent
Large-scale protests have broken out across several European countries. Protests in France over education problems turned violent on October 17. Some protesters looted shops and even set fire to a century-old city hall. Police arrested nearly 2,400 people in a single day. President Macron condemned the violence and promised to hold those responsible accountable.
In Milan, Italy, protests over poor public services and rising living costs also led to violence, with demonstrators smashing shop windows and looting stores. In Albania, people took to the streets over government corruption and a lack of job opportunities, demanding that Prime Minister Edi Rama step down. However, Rama refused to resign and warned that the protests could threaten Albania’s goal of joining the European Union.
第二則:識別證身分臨時遭變更!李洋拒絕出席亞洲帕拉運動會開幕式
愛知名古屋亞洲帕拉運動會於 10 月 18 日舉行開幕式,但台灣運動部長李洋原本獲核發的「運動部長」識別證,突然被改成「國家帕拉林匹克委員會貴賓」身份。由於主辦單位未充分說明原因,李洋因此拒絕出席開幕式,以表達抗議。
運動部對此表達強烈不滿,已向亞洲帕拉林匹克委員會正式抗議,並透過外交管道協調。運動部強調,識別證應符合出席者的實際職務,也呼籲各方公平對待,避免非運動因素干擾賽事。
Badge Changed at the Last Minute! Lee Yang Refuses to Attend Asian Para Games Opening Ceremony
The Aichi-Nagoya Asian Para Games held their opening ceremony on October 18. However, Taiwan’s Sports Minister Lee Yang had his accreditation badge unexpectedly changed from “Sports Minister” to “NPC Guest.” Because the organizers did not provide a clear explanation for the change, Lee refused to attend the opening ceremony in protest.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Sports expressed strong dissatisfaction with the decision and filed a formal protest with the Asian Paralympic Committee. The ministry is also working through diplomatic channels to resolve the issue. It stressed that accreditation badges should reflect attendees’ official positions and called for fair treatment to prevent non-sporting factors from interfering with the Games.
第三則:應輝達要求 三星採用台積電 3 奈米製程生產基礎晶粒
韓國媒體於 10 月 18 日報導中指出,三星電子將採用台積電 3 奈米製程,為輝達下一代的客製化高頻寬記憶體製造基礎晶粒,這將是三星首次在 HBM 製造上與台積電合作。
此外,輝達也要求 SK 海力士與美光在基礎晶粒採用台積電製程,以統一不同供應商的晶片設計。儘管三星已同意相關要求,但仍有計畫自行生產 HBM,以因應其他客戶的需求。
At Nvidia's Request, Samsung to Use TSMC's 3nm Process to Produce Base Die
South Korean media reported on October 18 that Samsung Electronics will use TSMC’s 3-nanometer process to produce base dies for Nvidia’s next-generation custom high-bandwidth memory chips. This will mark the first time Samsung has worked with TSMC in HBM production.
In addition, Nvidia has also asked SK Hynix and Micron to use TSMC’s manufacturing process for their base dies to standardize chip designs across different suppliers. Although Samsung has agreed to these requirements, it still plans to produce HBM using its own manufacturing process to meet the needs of other customers.
第四則:AI 導購再快也沒用?物流速度跟上才是重點
消費者往往希望網購商品能迅速送達,但零售業卻面臨缺工、物流成本上漲等挑戰。即使 AI 能快速推薦商品,如果倉庫揀貨和配送速度跟不上,仍可能影響消費體驗,甚至讓企業流失訂單。
為提升效率,零售業者開始導入智慧倉儲系統,自動整合訂單、更新庫存,也將實體門市變成小型出貨中心,縮短配送時間。未來零售業的競爭關鍵,在於能否整合線上線下系統,提升整體出貨效率。
Fast AI Recommendation Isn't Enough? Delivery Speed Is What Matters
Consumers often expect their online orders to arrive quickly, but retailers face challenges such as labor shortages and rising logistics costs. Even if AI can recommend products quickly, slow warehouse picking and delivery processes can still affect the shopping experience and cause businesses to lose orders.
To improve efficiency, retailers are adopting smart warehouse management systems to automatically process orders and update inventory. They are also turning physical stores into small fulfillment centers to shorten delivery times. In the future, the key to success in retail will be how well businesses integrate their online and offline systems to improve overall order fulfillment efficiency.
