12 Chinese AI Models Compete in Prediction Battle

BEIJING and SHANGHAI, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The 2026 FIFA World Cup isn’t only being decided on the pitch. It’s also becoming a testing ground for artificial intelligence, as 12 of China’s leading AI models compete against one another in the “Human vs. AI World Cup Challenge,” a nationwide prediction campaign launched by broadcaster Migu and FIFA’s official technology partner Lenovo that has attracted tens of millions of participants. Migu, the official rights-holding broadcaster for the tournament, teamed up with Lenovo to create a common platform for competition among China’s leading large language models. The lineup includes DeepSeek, Kimi, ERNIE Bot, Qwen, and China Mobile’s Jiutian. Before the group stage, the models predicted which 32 teams would advance. Once the tournament got underway, the competition shifted to forecasting individual match winners and exact scores.

The campaign’s appeal lies in putting AI capabilities to the test under a single set of rules. Tens of millions of users have joined in, with the competition later moving to a live broadcast format. On June 24, Migu launched Human vs. AI: Who Predicts It Better?, a live studio show that pits celebrity guests against the models in real time. After every match, a public prediction accuracy leaderboard is released, turning what could have been a one-click gimmick into a serialized event that people follow and talk about.

Halfway through the tournament, several Chinese models have emerged as frontrunners. China Mobile’s Jiutian model currently leads the pack, hitting a 69% accuracy rate on single-match predictions as of July 7, giving it the highest success rate among the participating models. Furthermore, Jiutian has carved out an edge in calling draws and upsets. When the Netherlands faced Japan, most models predicted a Dutch victory. Jiutian alone called the draw. When Argentina beat Austria 2-0, Jiutian was the only model to nail the exact score. And in a high-profile Belgium-Senegal match, 11 models predicted a Belgian victory, while Jiutian alone was the only model to correctly call a 1-1 draw.

Other Chinese models have been bringing their own strengths to the table. Alibaba’s Qwen, Zhipu, and MiniMax have all been using multi-agent analysis to generate their forecasts. Kimi’s chatbot, for instance, can deploy as many as 300 AI agents to analyze tactics, player availability, injury records, weather conditions, and betting market odds. The Qwen app takes a similar approach, drawing on dozens of agents for each analysis.

For the companies behind these models, the World Cup represents far more than a marketing moment. It’s a rare, high-stakes stress test. Public prediction places every model on a level playing field, turning backend algorithmic prowess into interactive experiences that fans can see, compare and debate. The “Human vs. AI” showdown created by Migu and Lenovo not only adds a new layer of excitement and engagement to the World Cup — it also offers a real-time snapshot of the strengths of China’s large language model ecosystem.

Ensora Health extends Fusion’s multi-discipline EHR deeper into adult physical therapy

Published

on

By

New protocol-driven documentation, native MIPS reporting, and remote therapeutic monitoring bring Fusion’s PT, OT, and speech platform fully into adult physical therapy, with one shared platform across every age, so growing practices never outgrow their EHR.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ensora Health today announced an expansion of its Fusion EHR platform that brings its multi-discipline therapy record fully into adult physical therapy. Unlike platforms that adapt a single-discipline template to serve others, Fusion was built to run physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), and speech-language pathology (SLP) as first-class disciplines in one shared EHR, an architecture that supports the 1,200+ Fusion practices that already treat both pediatric and adult patients. Three new capabilities complete the platform for the operational demands of adult PT care: protocol-driven, time-based documentation, native MIPS reporting across PT, OT, and speech, and remote therapeutic monitoring. These capabilities join Fusion’s established strengths, including AI Session Assistant.

Ensora Health expands Fusion’s adult PT capabilities with MIPS reporting and RTM.

“Most PT practices are stuck choosing between software built for a single discipline and platforms so broad they fit no one well,” said Kevin Smith, SVP and general manager of Therapy Solutions at Ensora Health. “Fusion has run PT, OT, and speech together for years, for practices treating children and adults alike. This is a market we know well. We’re now putting focused investment behind a strength that has been part of Fusion from the start.”

Three new capabilities, now generally available, target the operational pressures adult PT practices report most:

Flow sheets bring protocol-driven, time-based documentation to adult PT including auto-populating CPT codes and CMS-aligned CO/CQ modifiers for clinician review and tracking time-based activities, so documentation flows cleanly into billing.

Native MIPS reporting across speech, PT and OT captures Medicare quality data directly in each discipline’s clinical workflow and flags incomplete measures before reporting deadlines — the compliance infrastructure Medicare-participating practices treat as a baseline.

Home exercise programs and remote therapeutic monitoring, both newly added to Fusion through its integration with Wibbi, live inside the patient’s Fusion chart rather than a separate app or printed handout. Therapists build and assign video-guided home programs, and practices can bill remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) as a reimbursable service suited to the Medicare-heavy adult payer mix.

These sit alongside Fusion’s AI Session Assistant, introduced earlier in 2026, which generates structured documentation during the visit through ambient listening and dictation, all inside one shared EHR the whole care team already uses.

“Home exercise and remote monitoring work best when they’re part of the clinician’s workflow, not another app to log into,” said Etienne Gobeil, president and CEO of Wibbi. “Building our home exercise programs and remote therapeutic monitoring directly into Fusion lets therapists keep patients progressing between visits and, for adult practices, capture the reimbursement that supports that care without ever leaving the EHR they already work in.”

Fusion’s multi-discipline therapy EHR shows up in how practices actually use it: 77% of Fusion practices deliver speech therapy and 70% deliver occupational therapy alongside PT, depth a PT-first platform cannot easily replicate. For a practice that adds speech or occupational therapy, or one that grows from a pediatric base into adult care, that means no new software, no second login, and no re-entered patient history.

Physical therapy practices can learn more about Fusion for adult and pediatric physical therapy and request a demo.

TENADO METAL 3D Launches in U.S., Bringing Trade-Specific 3D CAD to Metal Fabricators

Published

By

The purpose-built CAD platform, production-proven in Europe, helps U.S. shops design faster, reduce errors, and deliver BIM-ready model data

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TENADO, a Revalize company, today launched TENADO METAL 3D in the United States: a 3D CAD software built specifically for the metal trade. Developed in Germany and refined over more than 35 years of daily use in European fab shops, TENADO METAL 3D enters the U.S. market with workflows tailored to the metal industry. The solution features a built-in parts library compliant to AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction) and US fastener libraries, giving American metal fabricators an alternative to general-purpose design tools.

For decades, designers and fabricators in the U.S. have relied on CAD tools originally designed for mechanical engineering. The result is familiar across the trade: hours spent on manual setup, repeated calculations, rework, and designs that don’t translate cleanly to the shop floor, slowing projects down before fabrication even starts.

TENADO METAL 3D takes a different approach. Built on Autodesk Inventor technology, the 3D CAD software was designed around how metal projects are designed and made. It covers key use cases, with workflows for designing stairs and railings, structural components, and sheet metal. Instead of adapting generic tools, users can work in a system that reflects their day-to-day work.

The difference becomes most visible in routine work. Repetitive tasks such as miter calculations, flat-pattern unfolding, and cut list creation are handled automatically within the model—reducing manual effort and helping teams move faster from design to fabrication-ready output with fewer errors.

“Most metal fabricators are still working with CAD tools that were never built for their trade,” said Karlos Palmer, Senior Director of Product Management for TENADO at Revalize. “TENADO METAL 3D focuses on the workflows they use every day. Our users get up and running quickly and spend less time on design, so they can take on more work, win more bids, and ultimately grow their business.”

The platform also supports the evolution of fabrication projects in response to requirements for model-based environments. TENADO METAL 3D includes an IFC interface (the open BIM data standard) that allows users to exchange model data with architects and general contractors on commercial projects.

The platform is designed for custom fabrication shops, stair and railing specialists, and similar businesses that need to increase output without adding headcount. By automating repetitive design steps and generating fabrication-ready outputs directly from the model, the software improves consistency and shortens project turnaround times.

TENADO METAL 3D is available now in the United States. Demonstrations can be scheduled through the TENADO website.
