SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future
Recently, Softbank Ventures Asia publicly announced that it has begun to focus on Metaverse and invested in the AOS project. It will cooperate with AOS to connect and integrate more Metaverses in AI, NFT, robotics, and other fields, and carry the development of large-scale killer applications.
The enthusiastic investment in Metaverse has not subsided, but it has risen again. The technology giants have all entered the Metaverse. Facebook plans to fully transform into Metaverse before 2025, and will set up a product team to accelerate investment in VR/AR and the creator community; Bytedance, which has always believed in Striving for Miracles, merged Mutong Technology for 4 billion USD, and begin to lay out the Metaverse; Axie Infinity builds NFT games based on the Metaverse, subverting the traditional game mode and becoming a phenomenon-level game product; miHOYO, the developer of “Genshin Impact”, formed an AI scientist inverse entropy team, and self-developed Avatar Luming to explore the brain-computer interface. Through investment, miHOYO has successfully deployed the social Metaverse Soul; the Internet industry is renewing and iterating rapidly, and companies need to attach importance to meet unknown concepts and challenges or be left behind by the times.
In the Metaverse era, everything has virtual avatars. The concept of Metaverse seems to be still in the mist today, but the prelude to the new era has been opened, and it is closer than you think.
The popularization of the term Metaverse was cited from the novel Avalanche by American science fiction writer Neil Stephenson in 1992. In his book, he used the word Metaverse for the first time without foundation and described it as a parallel universe projected from the real world through technical means such as the Internet. However, anyone who has watched the movie “Ready Player One” by the great director Steven Spielberg should probably understand this concept. Like the “Oasis” in the movie, the company has created a realistic virtual world outside of the real world. Every player in the real world has another identity in the virtual world, establishes another social circle, and leads another life. Although the Metaverse is only a virtual world, its immersion is so vivid that you will think it is the real world and enjoy life in this new world.
AOS (Artificial Intelligence Operating System) is the first operating system developed by Canada Unicorn Park, based on the underlying blockchain technology to connect the Metaverse. By building a Metaverse bridge online, and using robots as an intelligent carrier offline to build an ecosystem between Metaverses and provide a new experience for integration with Metaverse and the real world.
Based on AOS, users could create an AI NFT that has autonomous consciousness and advanced self-learning capability; And it also gets influenced by the distributed personality database on the chain to build character, and gradually complete neural network-style self-learning and improvements. Most of all, the distributed character database is based on the “Book of Changes” and appropriately constructs the character of AI; users can inject their favorite characters, personalities, voices, etc., into their own AI NFT, and tame it to learn more skills. AOS encourages users to integrate more characters and personalities, combined with NFT to create different artistic values. The custom AI itself has NFT attributes. Users can customize the appearance of AI on the network, and can also authorize access to a third-party character customization system, such as specific character images and voices, and third-party NFT star voices and appearances, packaged in the form of NFT used for trading and collection.
AOS connects the first-generation physical carrier, the AI four-wheel driving robot Mars_1 with the Metaverse and the real world, creating a new user experience.
Mars_1 is a highly integrated artificial intelligence robot product. Its appearance is in the form of a four-legged driving robot dog. It adopts an original five-layer motion control technology and several technical indicators are in a leading position in the global industry. Mars_1 has integrated the Internet of Things, 5G, virtual reality/augmented reality, intelligent driving, swarm intelligence, and other technologies. Mars_1 will obey commands and gradually be closer to a dog and then become to a good assistant to humankind.
On the road to the Metaverse, AOS always hopes to leave a strong and colorful stroke in its own way. Connect the Metaverse through AI and map out the experience and lifestyle of the future. For the world that people dream of, high-intelligence AI coupled with linkage with robots will be an indispensable component of this era. As the aboriginal and basic units of the Metaverse, these virtual species based on AOS will continue to establish connections with us beyond human beings in the infinite space and time of the future, transcending the fetters of races.
Sun Zhengyi believes: “We are about to experience the biggest change in human history. AI will eventually replace human beings. This is not only reflected in knowledge but also in intelligence. This change will happen in this century, and then in the next 30 years, there is no doubt that our focus is on AI, intelligent robots, and the IOTs.” Based on this analysis and judgment, SoftBank has frequently carried out large-scale layouts in the fields of AI, intelligent robots, and IOTs. Start from all aspects to create a powerful robot empire. Today, SoftBank’s industries have completed the layout of the future of the new Internet field as Sun Zhengyi said in the past, and completed more than half of the investment of unicorn companies on a global scale, laying a foundation for the subsequent development of the IOTs in the world.
As a world-renowned “Animation Kingdom”, Japan has an irreplaceable influence in the global animation field. After half a century of development, the Japanese animation industry has formed an extremely large system, making Japan the world’s largest animation production and exporting country, and it also around animation IP to derive cultural and creative products, such as GK. With the development of smart technology, they also work hard in the direction of intelligence for GK. Headquartered in Japan, SoftBank has a unique geographical location and is deeply immersed in Japanese IP culture. This collaboration with AOS will further promote the combination of the GK industry and the AIindustry, and provide AOS with a steady stream of IP resources. Users’ favorite characters such as Luffy, Conan, Sailor Moon, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Inuyasha, etc., can inject their image and personality into AI to create your smart figure. Each AI figure is a unique individual, and different parameters also create different expressions and styles. At the same time, when users have more exchanges with AI, they will gradually become familiar with the user’s temper and preferences and adjust their apparent personality in real-time and dynamically making it infinitely close to the form that we want to see eventually.
The product made by a single company is not enough to be called a Metaverse but constitutes an ecological system. With the deep participation of users, if it is successful in collective efforts to build a more interoperable system, and it can be transformed into different layers, then it should be called a Metaverse. AOS is committed to becoming the link between the physical world and the virtual world, as a bridge between various Metaverses to connect the Metaverse and continue to build a new Metaverse ecology. This will be the top priority in the next stage of the development of the Internet after the mobile Internet.
What kind of world will mankind be in the future? SoftBank Asia and AOS have worked together because of the same concept for Metaverse and jointly created such a grand concept, standing at the forefront of the Metaverse economic tide, seizing opportunities, embracing the new future, and believing that with their win-win cooperation, they will give a perfect answer for the world.

CGTN: Embarking on third ‘golden decade’: How BRICS pools development strength for high-quality cooperation
CGTN published an article on Chinese President Xi Jinping’s speech at Session I of the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi. The article highlights how, after 20 years of fruitful cooperation, BRICS countries have ushered in a new stage of high-quality development for greater cooperation and underscores the need for the group to strive to be a pioneer of the times, steer the international order toward greater justice and equity, and work together to build a community with a shared future for humanity.
In February this year, an 82.15-km Regional Rapid Transit System in India, also known as the Namo Bharat line, went fully operational, connecting the National Capital Territory of Delhi with the cities of Ghaziabad and Meerut in Uttar Pradesh. Journey time between Delhi and Meerut during peak hours has been slashed from four hours by driving in the past to roughly one by rail today.
Financed in part by the New Development Bank (NDB), a flagship BRICS initiative, the project is more than a transport upgrade – it is a tangible example of how greater BRICS cooperation can translate financial resources into development outcomes.
Since its inception in 2006, BRICS has grown to 11 members and 10 partner countries, turning diversity into a source of cooperation and development momentum.
“Over the past two decades, the BRICS cooperation mechanism has continued to grow and expand and has demonstrated remarkable vitality and dynamism,” Chinese President Xi Jinping said while addressing Session I of the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi on Saturday.
He called on BRICS countries to stand on the right side of history, strive to be a pioneer of the times, steer the international order toward greater justice and equity, and work together to build a community with a shared future for humanity.
High-quality development of greater BRICS cooperation
Over the past 20 years, BRICS members and partner countries have increasingly leveraged their respective strengths through open and mutually beneficial cooperation. What began as an economic cooperation mechanism has developed into a robust platform covering trade, investment, finance, innovation, energy, agriculture and people-to-people exchanges.
For many developing economies, access to affordable, long-term funding remains critical to turning development ambitions into reality. The NDB, headquartered in Shanghai, has helped provide such an option by mobilizing resources for infrastructure and sustainable development projects. Figures released by the bank showed that by the end of the first quarter of 2026, the NDB had approved $42.9 billion in financing for 140 projects.
Covering areas like infrastructure, clean energy and digital transformation, these projects address the pressing development needs of Global South countries while echoing the priorities highlighted by the theme of the ongoing BRICS Summit, “Building for Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation and Sustainability.”
The results can be seen in everyday economic activity. Chromite ore mined in South Africa is smelted into premium stainless steel plates at Chinese factories before finding its way into precision equipment workshops in India’s Bengaluru. Chinese-made modern harvesters work across farmland in Brazil, whose soybean produce feeds global markets.
According to a UN Trade and Development report, intra-BRICS merchandise trade has soared from $84.2 billion in 2003 to $1.17 trillion in 2024, surging more than 13‑fold with an average annual growth rate of 13.3%, outpacing global trade expansion during the same period.
Hailing the past 20 years of BRICS cooperation as fruitful, Xi said BRICS has undergone a historic expansion, established a comprehensive, multifaceted cooperation structure and entered a new stage of high-quality development for greater BRICS cooperation.
Embarking on the third ‘golden decade’
As the BRICS cooperation mechanism is embarking on its third “golden decade,” its expanded membership and growing network of partners have brought new opportunities as well as new demands for cooperation.
Embodying the just aspirations of the Global South to advance the transformation of the international order and amplifying the collective voice of developing countries, the BRICS cooperation mechanism has grown into a strategic force for building a more just and equitable global governance system.
From proposing to deepen the BRICS partnership at the 2017 BRICS Summit in China’s coastal city of Xiamen to advocating the building of a BRICS committed to peace, innovation, green development, justice and closer people-to-people exchanges at the 2024 BRICS Summit in Kazan, China has consistently enriched the connotation of the BRICS cooperation mechanism, aligning the group with the prevailing trend of peace and development.
In recent years, through establishing the BRICS Partnership on New Industrial Revolution Innovation Center, launching the China‑BRICS Artificial Intelligence Development and Cooperation Center and inaugurating the China-BRICS New Quality Productive Forces Research Center, BRICS members and partner countries have continuously expanded the breadth and depth of cooperation in areas like AI, digital development, scientific and technological innovation, industrial upgrading and green transition.
At the New Delhi Summit, Xi called on BRICS countries to pioneer in advancing innovation-driven development, upholding peace and stability, facilitating mutual learning between civilizations, and reforming and improving global governance.
These four priorities point to where the third “golden decade” of BRICS cooperation can generate new momentum.
The Chinese side stands ready to work with all parties to build consensus, create a better future, and embark on BRICS’ third “golden decade,” jointly opening up a bright future of prosperity and progress, Xi added.

Independent competition at the Scientology Community Centre welcomes dancers from Ireland, England and Germany, bringing traditional and modern Irish dance onto the same stage
Brussels, Belgium, 12th Sep 2026 — Dancers from Ireland, England and Germany gathered at the Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin for the inaugural RINCE All Irelands, an independent competition bringing together different organisations, generations and approaches to Irish dance.
Competitors ranged from four years old to over 50 and represented four different Irish dance organisations. The format allowed dancers who might not ordinarily meet within the same competitive structure to share a common floor, while recognising achievement from beginner level through to open championship.
RINCE grew from an initiative created to keep the Irish dance community connected during the COVID-19 lockdowns.
“We started as a magazine about Irish dance but were forced to take a break during lockdown,” said Erin Coyle, founder of RINCE. “Instead, we decided to host an online competition to raise money for various food banks. Following its success, we were asked to continue and help keep dancers’ spirits up. From there, our competitions grew in popularity and have since developed into regular events, both online and in person.”
That experience eventually led to RINCE All Irelands, conceived as an independent competition where dancers from different organisational backgrounds could perform together while maintaining the standards and identity of Irish dance.
One of the main features of the Dublin event was the Set Belt competition, which asked championship dancers to demonstrate their command of both modern and traditional forms.
Competitors first performed a modern set, allowing greater freedom in their choice of movements, followed by a traditional set performed according to established standards.
“For me, hosting the Set Belt was one of the most meaningful parts of the event,” Coyle said. “It was amazing to see dancers perform both styles to such a high standard and show how Irish dance can preserve its traditions while continuing to develop and innovate.”
The format reflected a balance familiar to many living cultural traditions: maintaining skills and standards passed down through generations while giving new performers room to develop their own abilities and expression.
Irish dance also places considerable demands on competence. Progress comes through instruction, observation, repeated practice, physical discipline and attention to detail — qualities evident among competitors across the different ages and levels represented in Dublin.
For the Scientology Community Centre, that emphasis on developing ability and recognising accomplishment also reflects principles found in The Way to Happiness, the nonreligious common-sense guide to better living written by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Among its 21 precepts is “Be Competent”, which emphasises learning, practice and the development of skill. Other precepts encourage people to set a good example, respect others and contribute constructively to the society around them.
Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, said the event illustrated how cultural heritage, personal development and respect for diversity can reinforce one another.
“Culture remains alive because people learn it, practise it well and pass it on,” Arjona said. “The precept ‘Be Competent’ from The Way to Happiness is especially relevant to what these dancers are doing: behind every performance are learning, discipline and persistence. And when people from different organisations, generations and countries come together through a shared tradition, they show that cultural identity and respect for diversity can comfortably go hand in hand — something of particular value in today’s Europe.”
The competition also featured a Parade of Champions, recognising winners at every level from Beginner through to Open Championship.
Organisers said the opportunity to acknowledge dancers across the full competitive spectrum was particularly well received, giving younger and developing competitors a visible place alongside experienced championship performers.
The event was organised with the support of volunteers Grace Noblet, Sarah Angus, Colette McCann and Jamie Dunne, who contributed to its preparation and delivery.
Coyle also highlighted the practical support provided by the Scientology Community Centre, where she had previously organised another event.
“This was my second event at the Scientology Community Centre, and both times the planning and the event itself have gone extremely smoothly,” she said. “In the weeks beforehand, the team worked through everything we needed, from lighting and tables to the presentation of the results. When I walked into the venue on the day, everything was ready to go, which took away so much of the stress involved in running an event.”
The Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin opened in 2017 as a place for Scientology religious services and as a venue for cultural, educational, charitable and community activities.
Its facilities have provided a meeting place for organisations and initiatives from across Dublin, reflecting Hubbard’s view that Scientology churches should contribute positively to the communities in which they operate and provide space for constructive cooperation.
Asia Kuzma, Public Relations Officer at the Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin, said RINCE represented the kind of activity the Centre was pleased to accommodate.
“RINCE brought together children, adults, families and dancers from different organisations around something that requires dedication and creates genuine connections between people,” Kuzma said. “Irish dance shows how cultural heritage can remain strong without becoming static. Each generation develops its abilities, learns from what came before and then carries that tradition forward.”
At RINCE All Irelands, the emphasis remained on culture, accomplishment and participation.
From four-year-old beginners taking some of their earliest competitive steps to experienced dancers performing at championship level, the event presented Irish dance as a living tradition sustained not simply by preserving what came before, but by continuing to learn, practise, compete and pass those skills to others.
By bringing dancers together across organisational and national boundaries, the inaugural RINCE All Irelands also demonstrated how a shared cultural tradition can provide common ground while allowing participants to retain the identities and traditions they bring with them.

Press Release
Ronel Lamour Junior launches a self-check for South Florida homeowners before the next AC breakdown
Why a self-check, and why now
Florida, USA, 12th September 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Ronel Lamour Junior has spent about 16 years working on residential and light-commercial HVAC systems across South Florida. Most of the emergency calls he takes in peak cooling season share a pattern: a problem that started small and got ignored until the system stopped altogether.
“By the time someone calls me on a Saturday because the house is 85 degrees, the actual failure usually started weeks earlier,” Ronel said. “A dirty filter, a clogged drain line, a thermostat that’s been acting strange. Most of it gives you warning signs.”
He built a short list of checks a homeowner can run in about ten minutes, without tools or technical training. He is releasing it publicly rather than keeping it as something he only mentions on service calls.
What the self-check covers
The list has five items, each tied to a common failure Ronel sees repeatedly in Florida homes:
Airflow at the vents. Weak airflow from multiple rooms often points to a dirty filter or a blocked return, not a failing compressor. Ronel recommends checking the filter first, before anything else.
Water near the indoor unit. Standing water or a musty smell near the air handler usually means a clogged condensate line. In Florida’s humidity, this is one of the most common calls he gets, and it is often caught early if someone notices the water before it damages flooring or drywall.
Outdoor unit clearance. Leaves, mulch, or grass clippings packed against the outdoor condenser restrict airflow and make the whole system work harder. Ronel suggests a quick visual check for anything piled against the unit, especially after storms.
Thermostat behavior. A thermostat that seems to lose its schedule, shows inconsistent temperature readings, or won’t hold a setting is worth noting before it fails completely, particularly for households running smart thermostats.
Unusual sounds or smells. Grinding, clicking, or a burning smell are signs Ronel tells people not to wait on. Everything else on the list is a “watch it” item. This one is a “call someone now” item.
Why he is putting it in writing
Ronel has said that trust with customers is built slowly and lost quickly. Part of how he tries to build it is by giving people enough information to know what is actually urgent and what can wait.
“I’d rather someone catch a small problem themselves than pay for an emergency call that could’ve been avoided,” he said. “And if they check all five of these and everything looks fine, that’s useful information too. It usually means the problem is something else, and I don’t have to guess when I get there.”
He also sees it as a way to cut down on unnecessary anxiety. Not every strange noise means a system is dying, and not every warm room means the compressor failed.
“A lot of people panic before they need to,” Ronel said. “If you know what you’re looking at, you make better decisions. Do you need someone today, or can this wait until tomorrow morning? That’s a real difference for a family with kids or elderly parents in the house.”
Who this is for
Ronel built the checklist with South Florida’s climate in mind specifically. Condensate line clogs, humidity-driven mold near indoor units, and outdoor units packed with storm debris are more common here than in drier climates, and he wanted the list to reflect what actually goes wrong in this region rather than generic advice.
He plans to keep the list simple rather than expand it into something more technical.
“The moment it needs a multimeter, it’s not a self-check anymore,” he said. “This is meant for someone standing in their hallway trying to figure out if they need to make a call tonight or if it can wait.”
