Reinforcement learning (RL) has gained growing attention in large language model (LLM) post-training, yet RL training remains fragile and can suffer from instability or collapse. One vital cause is training-inference mismatch: LLM adopts separate inference and training engines for generation efficiency and training precision, which in practice exhibits inconsistent probabilities for the same trajectories on training and inference sides, even with synchronized model parameters. This naturally induces a special type of off-policyness ever existing and poisoning the training. Prior works have made various efforts in addressing the off-policyness to stabilize the training policies under the mismatch. In this paper, we point out the objective misalignment neglected by existing works that an effective update to the policy in the training engine not necessarily ensures the improvement of the inference policy, i.e., the one used in deployment. To this end, we propose a new policy optimization objective for LLM RL, named Monotonic Inference Policy Improvement (MIPI). Following this principle, we introduce Monotonic Inference Policy Update (MIPU), a two-step LLM RL framework that constructs sampler-referenced candidate updates and selectively accepts synchronized candidates using an inference-side gap proxy. Experiments conducted on two model scales under high mismatch show that MIPU improves average reasoning performance and training stability.

Embodied AI models now span vision-language-action (VLA) models and world-action models (WAMs), but practical deployment remains fragmented across model-specific Python stacks, backend assumptions, and robot-side glue code, especially on heterogeneous edge devices. Existing inference runtimes are designed mainly for request-response serving and therefore do not satisfy the runtime contract of embodied deployment: multi-rate execution inside closed-loop control, latency-first batch-1 inference on heterogeneous hardware, and extensible embodied interfaces beyond fixed token I/O. We present Embodied.cpp, a portable C++ inference runtime for embodied models. Based on an architectural analysis of representative VLA models and WAMs, Embodied.cpp captures a shared execution path and organizes it into five layers: input adapters, sequence builders, backbone execution, head plugins, and deployment adapters. The runtime provides modular multi-rate execution, latency-first fused inference, and extensible operator and I/O support, enabling deployment across heterogeneous devices, robots, and simulators through one backend abstraction. We evaluate Embodied.cpp on two VLA models, HY-VLA and pi0.5, and on a preliminary WAM benchmark using a LingBot-VA Transformer block. The VLA deployments achieve successful closed-loop execution with 100.0% and 91.0% task success rates, respectively. The WAM benchmark reduces block memory from 312.2 MiB to 88.1 MiB. These results show that Embodied.cpp improves deployment efficiency while preserving high accuracy across diverse embodied model architectures.

Diffusion transformers (DiTs) achieve state-of-the-art image and video generation, but their multi-step sampling and growing parameter count make inference expensive. Post-training quantization (PTQ) is the natural remedy, yet DiT activations shift across timesteps, prompts, and guidance branches, forcing prior methods to re-fit calibration data for every new checkpoint or modality. We present OrbitQuant, a data-agnostic weight-activation quantizer that bypasses range estimation by quantizing in a normalized, rotated basis. In this basis, a randomized permuted block-Hadamard (RPBH) rotation concentrates each coordinate around one fixed, known marginal regardless of the input, so a single Lloyd-Max codebook serves all timesteps, prompts, and layers of a given input dimension. We extend the same quantizer to weight rows offline, absorbing the rotation into the weights so that it cancels inside each linear layer and only a forward rotation on the activations remains at runtime. The same recipe transfers from image to video with no per-modality tuning. Across FLUX.1, Z-Image-Turbo, Wan 2.1, and CogVideoX, it sets the state of the art for PTQ at several low-bit settings. It also pushes PTQ of image diffusion transformers to W2A4 with usable generation quality.

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) foundation models have recently achieved strong progress in embodied intelligence. To reduce policy-call frequency while preserving temporal coherence, most generative policies adopt an action chunk mechanism, executing multiple future actions in an open-loop manner under a fixed action horizon. However, this "predict-then-blindly-execute" paradigm sacrifices closed-loop reactivity: in contact-rich physical interactions, even small local perturbations can rapidly amplify within the open-loop blind spot, leading to compounding errors and ultimately task failure. To address this limitation, we propose VLA-Corrector, a lightweight corrective inference framework for action-chunked VLA policies. Without modifying the backbone policy weights, VLA-Corrector introduces a lightweight Latent-space Vision Monitor (LVM) that continuously compares predicted and actual visual feature evolution, enabling online detection of visual dynamics deviations. Once persistent deviation is detected, the system triggers a truncation event, discards the remaining stale actions, and invokes corrective replanning via Online Gradient Guidance (OGG). The detect-and-correct mechanism of VLA-Corrector naturally induces an event-triggered adaptive action horizon: it preserves long-horizon execution when the current chunk remains reliable, and invokes short-horizon corrective replanning when execution begins to drift. In doing so, VLA-Corrector mitigates the trade-off imposed by static horizons between execution robustness and policy-call frequency. It can be integrated into different VLA models without further retraining the VLA backbone, interrupting compounding errors while preserving much of the efficiency benefit of action chunking and substantially improving robustness in long-horizon, contact-rich robotic manipulation tasks.

Building performant Vision-Language Models (VLMs) requires carefully curating large-scale training datasets, yet the community lacks systematic benchmarks for evaluating such curation strategies. We introduce DataComp for VLMs (DCVLM), a benchmark for controlled data-centric experiments to improve VLM training. As part of DCVLM, we collect 160 datasets spanning four data types -- image-caption pairs, multimodal interleaved documents, text-only, and instruction-tuning data -- into a corpus of 6T multimodal tokens. DCVLM allows participants to test curation strategies (filtering, mixing, formatting, sampling) across 1B-8B models and 6.25B-200B token budgets. Models are then evaluated on a carefully selected suite of up to 52 downstream benchmarks across 9 domains. We conduct extensive experiments on DCVLM and find that data mixing, not filtering, is key to a high-quality training dataset: instruction-heavy mixtures scale better than caption-heavy ones, with gains widening at larger scales. The resulting dataset, DCVLM-Baseline, enables training an 8B VLM to 63.6% accuracy on our 33-task core suite with 200B training tokens. Compared to FineVision, the state-of-the-art open VLM training dataset, this represents an improvement of +5.4pp. DCVLM and all accompanying artifacts will be made publicly available at https://www.datacomp.ai/dcvlm/.

The fast growth of open-source AI infrastructure, from model serving engines and agent platforms to the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem and the language models themselves, has outpaced the security tooling available to defend it. We present AI-Infra-Guard, an open-source framework that organizes AI red teaming around a single observation: the attack surface of an AI agent is stratified across layers (infrastructure, protocol/tool, agent behavior, and model), and no single detection paradigm fits all of them. The framework therefore matches a paradigm to each layer, from deterministic rule matching over 75+ AI components and 1{,}400+ vulnerability rules, through LLM-driven agentic auditing of MCP servers and agent-skill packages and multi-turn black-box agent red teaming, to a jailbreak harness with 26+ attack operators over sixteen datasets. To our knowledge it is the only open-source framework to span all of these, including supply-chain auditing of the agent skills that increasingly extend AI agents. We release AI-Infra-Guard as open source so that layer-paradigm matching can serve as a practical foundation for agent security and a shared base for the community to build on.

Optimizer selection for large-scale model training has become a system-level design decision constrained jointly by compute, memory, tuning budget, and task diversity, yet the landscape of over one hundred methods remains fragmented. We therefore present OmniOpt, a unified survey and benchmark cookbook of optimizers for the research community. OmniOpt rests on four coupled components. First, we treat every optimizer update as a structured transformation through a five-stage meta-pipeline, and show that most methods engage only one or two of these stages. Second, we use norm-constrained linear minimization oracles (LMOs) to unify different optimizers. Third, these two views ground a dual-dimension taxonomy, one dimension assigning each method to a mechanism family and the other recording the measurable training objectives it aims to improve. Fourth, and at the core of this paper, we instantiate the full taxonomy in a unified cross-domain benchmark spanning representative optimizers, model scales, and training regimes from language model pretraining to image classification, systematically analyzing each method family across multiple effect objectives and laying out their trade-offs. OmniOpt thus supplies the research community with an operational coordinate system for selecting optimizers under explicit mechanism and objective assumptions, and charts a direction for the future development of the optimizer community.

Recent advances in multimodal foundation models and agent systems have driven GUI agents from single-platform task execution toward cross-platform interaction. However, building multi-platform GUI agents remains challenging. On one hand, high-quality and executable cross-platform interaction trajectories are still scarce, and existing data often suffer from limited platform coverage. On the other hand, different platforms exhibit distinct interaction conventions, making joint or continual training prone to behavioral pattern mixing, platform-specific capability degradation, and catastrophic forgetting. To address these challenges, we construct Uni-GUI, a high-quality cross-platform GUI interaction dataset, and propose UI-MOPD, the first method that incorporates multi-teacher on-policy distillation into continual learning for GUI agents. UI-MOPD dynamically selects a platform-specific teacher according to the current environment and transfers platform-specific behavioral priors to a shared policy through platform-conditioned distillation, enabling adaptation to new platforms while preserving capabilities on existing ones. Experiments on OSWorld and MobileWorld show that UI-MOPD achieves task success rates of 38.2% and 12.0%, respectively, demonstrating its effectiveness in balancing cross-platform capability retention and new-platform adaptation.

Research dissemination, turning a paper into a poster, a talk video, and a blog post, is still a manual last mile. Prior automation treats each artifact in isolation that each re-extract the paper from scratch, usually ship one-way renders the author cannot reopen in PowerPoint or Word, and gates quality on soft VLM-preference scores that plateau while load-bearing sections still read as empty. We argue this last mile is best built as a composition of skills: thin agent-readable contracts that share one upstream extractor and wrap deterministic primitives in a measured-fill loop whose exits are hard pass/fail render gates. We instantiate this as ResearchStudio-Reel, five Claude Code and Codex skills organized into one shared extractor (Paper2Assets), three editable generators (Paper2Poster, Paper2Video, Paper2Blog), and one interactive convergence layer (Paper2Reel). Paper2Assets extracts each paper once into a shared bundle that can be reused by every downstream skill; The three generators produce a print-ready poster, a synchronized talk video, and a bilingual blog that stay factually consistent and round-trip through PowerPoint or Word; Paper2Reel then binds all three into a self-contained HTML viewer whose section-level clicks jump the video, slides, captions, and blog to matching content. On the Paper2Poster benchmark, our posters lead every aesthetic and information sub-criterion against both prior automated systems and single-shot frontier LLMs, surpassing the authors' own on aesthetics under two held-out VLM judges and winning overall on 84% to 93% of papers; capability audits further show that, by uniquely pairing narration-aligned on-slide highlights with a bilingual blog gated by layout-aware DOCX repair, ResearchStudio-Reel is the only pipeline to ship all three editable artifacts.

3D reconstruction and generation are commonly tackled by separate paradigms: pixel-based regression for reconstruction, and latent diffusion for generation. Recent works attempt to unify them in latent space, but with notable drawbacks: the diffusion objective is defined on latent features rather than the underlying 3D representation, and both branches suffer from information loss introduced by latent encoding, while requiring a pretrained Variational Autoencoder (VAE) or Representation Autoencoder (RAE). In this paper, we reformulate these two tasks under a unified pixel-space diffusion paradigm and introduce PixWorld, a single model that jointly addresses 3D reconstruction and generation. By supervising diffusion directly on rendered images, PixWorld removes the above limitations and aligns optimization with 3D scene fidelity. Beyond photometric and perceptual supervision that operates at the 2D image level and lacks 3D geometric awareness, we further introduce a geometry perception loss that aligns rendered views with their ground truth in the geometry-aware feature space of a pretrained 3D foundation model, providing 3D structural supervision. PixWorld consistently outperforms prior latent-space generation methods and matches state-of-the-art reconstruction methods, demonstrating the superiority of a unified pixel-space approach.

Large language models have made research ideation increasingly accessible, yet effective idea development requires more than generating candidate directions. Researchers must ground a problem in current literature, identify meaningful bottlenecks, differentiate from existing solutions, and evaluate risks before committing to implementation. We present ResearchStudio-Idea as a reusable skill suite for this first mile of research ideation. The suite includes Paper-Search, a standalone multi-source literature search skill; Scoop-Check, a standalone prior-art collision checker for novelty claims; and IdeaSpark, the end-to-end skill that composes evidence grounding, pattern-guided generation, collision retrieval, audit, and idea-card rendering into one workflow. IdeaSpark is constructed from a corpus of 1,947 machine learning conference papers collected from ICLR, ICML, and NeurIPS between 2021 and 2025, including Oral papers, a separately tracked high-citation subset, and rejected submissions. Analysis of these outcomes reveals 31 recurring ideation sub-patterns, consolidated into 15 reusable ideation patterns. Each pattern is operationalized as a structured card containing research contexts, bottleneck types, differentiation strategies, supporting precedents, and common failure modes. Given a research problem and an evidence bundle, IdeaSpark evaluates evidence readiness, reconstructs the surrounding research context, identifies unresolved bottlenecks, selects relevant patterns, instantiates one candidate direction, retrieves potentially conflicting prior work, and performs outcome-informed auditing. This workflow transforms reusable ideation patterns into traceable research proposals. Blind automated-judge evaluations show that IdeaSpark consistently produces stronger research proposals than no-skill and generic-skill baselines while maintaining competitive novelty.

Concept erasure aims to remove a target concept from a representation while preserving the other information encoded in it. This is difficult because representations encode many concepts that are often correlated with the erasure target, so removing the target risks damaging them. We propose the Manifold Constraint Hypothesis (MCH): if natural representations concentrate on a structured, lower-dimensional manifold, then interventions should be constrained to that manifold and better preserve other information encoded in the representation during interventions. We instantiate MCH in a new concept erasure method: MANifold aware Concept Erasure (MANCE). MANCE performs iterative updates to the representations using signals from a classifier that predicts a target concept. We estimate the manifold using representations obtained from natural inputs, and then we project the concept removal update to the estimated manifold. We perform extensive evaluation on 119 settings spanning text and vision, including 13 language models, three NLP concepts, and 40 CelebA-CLIP attributes. Employing MANCE on top of previous methods shows consistent improved leakage results. We also introduce MANCE+ and MANCE++, which prepend a closed-form erasure algorithm before employing MANCE, achieving better leakage--surgicality tradeoffs relative to matched full-space updates. MANCE++, our best method, achieves state-of-the-art results on nonlinear concept erasure. These results support MCH in the erasure setting: interventions should be constrained to the natural representation manifold.

中国国家航天局周一宣布，天问二号探测器历经约 400 天、行程约 10 亿千米飞行后于近日与小行星 2016HO3 成功交会，到达距离小行星 20 千米处，开始科学探测。在抵近小行星过程中，探测器获得小行星影像数据。同时任务团队利用探测器抵近过程中获得的光学导航数据，改进了小行星星历，将之前仅依靠地基观测所确定的小行星位置误差，由上百千米减小到千米量级。天问二号探测器于 2025 年 5 月 29 日在西昌卫星发射中心成功发射。2026 年 6 月 6 日，探测器首次捕获到小行星；6 月 7 日，在距离小行星 3 万千米处实施捕获控制，实现与小行星共面飞行；6 月 19 日，到达距离小行星 2000 千米处。后续探测器将逐步开展更精细科学探测，获取小行星形貌、物质成分、内部结构等信息，为做好采样准备提供支撑。

被社媒用户指控是 AI 创作的短篇小说《The Serpent in the Grove》赢得英联邦短篇小说奖。这篇小说由 Jamir Nazir 创作，在五月份赢得了地区奖项，随后立即被 X 等平台的社媒用户指控是 AI 创作。原因是它包含了典型的 AI 写作模式，包括“不是 x 而是 y”结构以及三列表结构。在引发争议之后，Commonwealth Foundation 检查了所有地区奖得主的草稿、含时间戳的文件和笔记等内容。该基金会之后宣称他们没有发现作品是 AI 生成的证据。 Nazir 称其作品深受 VS Naipaul 和 Derek Walcott 等作家作品的影响。他说这篇小说写了六七稿，他解释说其手机屏幕一次只能显示三四行文字，所以他会写下一行前对前面的文字细致修改，最终使故事显得“高度润色”。

亚马逊众包平台 Mechanical Turk 发表公告，宣布将于 7 月 30 日起停止接受新用户。亚马逊 AWS 称，该决定是在“慎重考虑”后做出的，“现有用户可以继续正常使用该服务。AWS 将继续投资改进 Mechanical Turk 的安全性和可用性，但我们不打算推出新功能。”Mechanical Turk 暂时不会关闭，但其未来岌岌可危。亚马逊从 2018 年起将 Mechanical Turk 变成训练神经网络的标注数据服务。但讽刺的是 2023 年的研究发现，该平台 33% 到 46% 的众包工作者使用大模型去完成任务，引发了对标注数据的可靠性以及是否真的需要人类参与的质疑。社交平台的用户称，由于大量的机器人和欺骗行为，研究人员已经放弃了该平台，它的关闭可能只是时间问题。

有没有类似经历：走进一间房间，却忘记来干什么？你可能是来拿钥匙，在来的路上还记住钥匙，但在进门的刹那钥匙从你的记忆里消失了。这种现象有时被称为门口效应（Doorway Effect），通常发生在走进一间陌生的房间时。它与工作记忆密切相关。当我们执行当前任务（如记住去拿钥匙）时，信息会被存储在工作记忆中。门口效应表明，当信息从工作记忆中移除时，它似乎会立即从意识中消失。这也表明工作记忆中的信息很容易被遗忘。工作记忆内部包含众多不同子系统，分别负责特定的任务，包括视觉和空间推理（如解魔方）以及存储信息块（如电话号码）。甚至还有一个“中央执行系统”。中央执行系统就像一个冷酷的老板，负责将任务分配给工作记忆内的不同系统，确保一切井然有序。工作记忆的一个独特之处是它的容量非常有限。尽管它拥有丰富的可用信息，但工作记忆在任何时刻只能存储极少量的信息。它很难记住非常复杂的物体。工作记忆的有限容量能解释为什么门口效应会发生：当新信息进入时旧信息必须被清除。进门的动作会触发信息消除。从演化论角度看，遗忘旧信息有助于适应新环境。这种遗忘也表明工作记忆与意识密切相关。一种观点认为，意识的产生源于工作记忆和注意力的协同作用。

C# 和 TypeScript 等语言的创始人 Anders Hejlsberg 在 2025 年 3 月宣布他的团队正在开发用 Go 语言编写的 TypeScript 编译器。现在首个基于 Go 语言的 TypeScript 7.0 发布了 RC 版本。正式版本预计会在下个月发布。微软表示，得益于原生代码速度和共享内存并行处理能力，TypeScript 7.0 的速度通常比 TypeScript 6.0 快约 10 倍。不同于 TypeScript 6.0，TypeScript 7.0 的许多步骤（如解析、类型检查和发射）都可以并行执行。其中一些步骤（如解析和发射）在不同文件之间可以基本独立完成。并行处理在较大的代码库中能自动实现良好扩展，且开销相对较小。但微软也表示 TypeScript 构建中并非每个步骤都能轻松实现并行处理。

美国司法部、FBI 与芬兰国家调查局合作逮捕了 19 岁的网络勒索组织 Scattered Spider 成员 Peter Stokes，该组织至今已勒索逾 1 亿美元赎金。Stokes 已引渡到美国并于 6 月 30 日出庭，目前处于羁押中。微软在识别其身份过程中起了很大的作用。微软向 FBI 提供了 GDID（Global Device Identifier 或全球设备标识符），GDID 是分配给每个 Windows 的唯一标识符，用于跟踪特定设备的遥测数据。法庭文件显示，Stokes 使用的是 Windows 系统，他的网络活动、游戏历史记录、IP 地址、工具使用情况（包括 Ngrok）、Azure 状态等信息都被记录下来并带有时间戳，这些信息由微软提供给了调查人员。他拥有美国和爱沙尼亚双重国籍，其身份早在 2024 年就被确定，但由于他当时未成年且居住在爱沙尼亚和阿联酋，因此他一直处于被监视状态，直到最近试图从芬兰赫尔辛基搭乘航班飞往日本。

学习多种语言与大脑衰老延缓相关。一项研究发现，双语者的大脑比单语者年轻约六岁，掌握四种语言的人的大脑则年轻多达十三岁。随着年龄的增长，大脑的连接性会下降，记忆力和思维速度会减慢。此前的研究发现，掌握多种语言的欧洲国家居民衰老更慢。最新研究则测量了多语言能力对个体大脑的影响。研究对象是西班牙巴斯克（Basque）地区的居民，当地居民会说西班牙语、巴斯克语、法语和/或英语。研究人员用脑磁图（magnetoencephalography）测量了 728 名不同年龄和语言能力水平的人的大脑活动。结果显示，掌握了多种语言的人其大脑年龄比实际年龄更年轻。研究结果表明，学习第二、第三甚至第四门语言有助于大脑保持年轻状态，而且越早开始学习效果越好。

LineageOS 项目谈论了即将生效的 Google Android 开发者认证计划对该项目意味着什么。Android 开发者认证计划意味着所有 Android 安装路径都将通过 Google 控制的基础设施，授予 Google 一个“终止开关”可封禁全球任何 Android 应用或开发者。开发者认证对 LineageOS 项目没有直接影响，但会影响到运行任何官方 ROM 的用户。因为验证开发者的基础设施是 Google Mobile Services（GMS）的一部分，而 LineageOS 默认并不提供也无计划提供 GMS。除非 LineageOS 用户选择安装包含开发者验证基础架构的 GApps 包，否则该功能不会造成任何影响。如果 Google 将该功能集成到 Play Services 中，那么 LineageOS 项目将会全局禁用该功能。

根据分析机构 Omdia 的数据，2026 年第一季度 400美元以下智能手机的物料清单中，内存成本几乎占到了六成，而且此后情况并未好转。市场观察机构 TrendForce 上月预测，2026 年 DRAM 价格还将上涨 50% 以上，这使得廉价手机制造商不可避免将组件成本上涨的压力转嫁给消费者。为了抵消不断上涨的内存成本，制造商尝试转向更便宜的显示面板、传感器或射频模块，但低端手机本就建立在极其紧凑的成本结构上，几乎没有进一步压缩的空间。这与入门级 PC 的情况类似。Omdia 预计 2026 年 400 美元以下智能手机的出货量将同比下降 22%。不过 Omdia 认为，虽然 2026 年全球智能手机市场整体将下滑 12%，但 400 美元以上的中高端市场将保持韧性，出货量有望增长 5.7%。智能手机制造商正将生产重心转向中高端机型。部分中国制造商正在某些升级至新型 LTPO 技术的机型中重新采用 LTPS 显示面板，将 LTPO 保留给高端机型。这可以为每台设备节省 3-5 美元的成本。 其它措施还包括减少摄像头数量、使用更小的图像传感器，或改用上一代 SoC，这些措施可将成本降低约 30% 至40%。

研究人员发现，连续六周每晚少睡 80 分钟的人体重平均增加一磅，且更长时间久坐。研究团队招募了 95 名睡眠时间为 7-8 小时的成年人。参与者被要求在一个为期六周阶段内将正常就寝时间推迟 90 分钟，在另一个为期六周阶段内保持正常睡眠时间。研究人员使用腕式监测器测量了每个阶段的睡眠和活动水平，体重、腰围、身体成分和几种已知能增加或抑制食欲的激素的空腹水平变化。结果显示仅仅六周体重就出现了增长。此外，缺觉阶段的受试者久坐时间平均每天增加 17 分钟，男性和绝经后女性的久坐时间平均每天增加近 30 分钟。

空气污染可能通过影响儿童控制冲动能力而导致其肥胖。研究发现，在出生第一年接触较高浓度 PM2.5 的婴儿在儿童后期更容易出现冲动控制障碍。PM2.5 颗粒物常见人为来源包括交通和化石燃料燃烧，它与一系列健康问题相关，如痴呆症和中风。此前的研究表明 PM2.5 会扰乱新陈代谢并与体重增加有关。研究人员分析了墨西哥城的 434 名儿童的数据，他们多数出生于 2007-2008 年间。研究人员模拟了孕期和儿童出生后第一年的环境 PM2.5 水平。之后研究人员对这些儿童的冲动性和肥胖进行了评估。PM2.5 暴露水平最高的儿童组表现出较高的冲动性，反映出其抑制控制能力存在显著缺陷。

在智能手机和社媒时代，人们将越来越多的时间花在屏幕上。调查显示，美国人每天的平均社交时间从 20 年前的 45 分钟减少 10 分钟至 35 分钟。这一趋势在所有年龄段都存在，其中 15-24 岁人群下降幅度最大，每天社交时间从约 1 小时降至 35 分钟。与此同时，青少年平均每天花费 4.8 小时在 TikTok、Instagram 和 Snapchat 等社媒应用上。聚会场所的减少也是造成这一趋势的原因之一。过去十年美国各类休闲场所——从图书馆到咖啡馆到博物馆——都出现了大范围关闭，甚至教堂也存在类似现象。
