"AI-powered operations accounted for more than half of the company's core business revenue for the first time, describing the development as a clear indication that AI has become the firm's central growth engine."
The UK government is developing a Green Paper outlining potential plans to transition away from terrestrial television signals toward internet-based streaming services. The government remains committed to maintaining digital terrestrial television until 2034, though industry voices suggest a full switch-off could be technically achievable as early as 2030. Projections indicate that by 2040 only about 5% of UK households may still rely on traditional broadcast signals if they remain available. Concerns include infrastructure and affordability gaps, with tens of thousands of homes lacking suitable broadband speeds and a notable share of households struggling with basic internet costs. Baidu reports that AI operations became its leading revenue source for the first time, with AI-related revenue rising while overall revenue declined slightly.
