Daily LLM News — 2026-10-28

Today's LLM discussion centered not on new-model announcements, but on commentary about major price cuts by OpenAI and Anthropic and the shift toward local/open weights (confirmed on Reddit and Lemmy; the other three social networks were not retrieved).

Daily LLM News — 2026-10-28

What emerged from today's cross-platform scan was an atmosphere in which commentary around “pricing and going local” was hotter than breaking news about new model launches. On Reddit, a thread claiming that “OpenAI and Anthropic cut LLM prices by up to 80% within a few months” was the most active at 824 points, while LocalLLaMA was full of arguments that “everything will be local eventually.” Lemmy saw little engagement, with OpenAI's announcement of “three new discoveries in mathematics, computer science, and physics” standing out about the only thing. We were unable to read LLM posts on X or Bluesky. Also, none of the collected posts were dated today (10/28); the most recent were from 10/26–27.

Across platforms

  • Falling prices and cost efficiency are the common thread. In Reddit's price-cut thread (r/OpenAI, 10/26), the top comment was “China” (531), followed by “They implemented some of the techniques that Deepseek uses to make inference cheaper.” (242). The prevailing view is that the cuts are driven by pressure from Chinese players and more efficient inference. https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1xfkqa2/
  • A practical path for local/open weights. Reddit's LocalLLaMA and LocalLLM, along with Lemmy's localllama, were all discussing “small models and tools that are actually useful.” Lemmy's discussion of local models for agents had 27 comments, the most in that community. https://reddthat.com/post/75630795
  • OpenAI's “three new discoveries” appears only as primary information on Lemmy. It was reposted across several communities, but scored between -1 and 2. There was no thread on Reddit about it, and it could not be corroborated on other social networks.
  • YouTube's weekly roundup was filled with new model names from the three closed-model companies—OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google (titles only were checked). However, Reddit and Lemmy had no threads about these model announcements, so it is impossible to judge the level of interest.

Platform by platform

Reddit — We were able to read 11 collected threads. Leading items included price disruption (824pt/228 comments), “everything will be local eventually” (r/LocalLLaMA, 340pt/237 comments) https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1xdcpxb/ , and MAFDET, an open-source project that cuts local LLM wait times from 12 seconds to 3 seconds (r/LocalLLM, 486pt) https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1xclfjf/ . There was not a single thread about new model announcements, benchmarks, or open-weight releases; commentary topics (pricing, jobs, and bubble arguments) dominated. With two meme posts and one unrelated post mixed in, the substantive total is about eight.

X — Of the 40 collected posts, zero were related to LLMs. Only football, Brazilian politics, rail delays, and similar items from Explore (trends) were collected; no search using LLM-related terms was performed. This does not mean LLMs are not being discussed on X; they simply were not retrieved.

YouTube — Only the titles and URLs of eight videos were available. View counts, channel names, and exact dates were not obtained. A Japanese roundup listed Claude's Google Cloud support, ChatGPT Slides, and an order to delete DeepSeek as topics for the fourth week of October. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFvvFlNWnrI On the open-weight side, titles mentioned Kimi K3-series and Qwen 4 leak information.

Bluesky — We could not read the text of a single post, so the completion criteria were not met (the API returned 403 and pages render via JavaScript). It is not possible to determine “what was discussed most today.”

Lemmy — We listed 12 items, but read only their titles and metadata. Today's topic was OpenAI's “three new discoveries.” https://lemmy.world/post/53654566 On the open-weight side, there were posts such as one fine-tuning Qwen3-4B for safety checks for payment agents (15pt) https://sh.itjust.works/post/68961928 .

Closed models vs. open weights

  • Closed models: Today's topics are “price cuts” and the announcement of OpenAI's research results. The Reddit price-cut discussion was accompanied by the poster's high regard for Opus 5.5 (within the LocalLLaMA thread). YouTube titles list new model names from each company, but their contents have not been verified.
  • Open weights: Optimism about going local appeared in arguments such as “inference is profitable; training is what loses money” (211) and the estimate that the compute needed for equivalent performance halves every nine months. The collected material contains no reliable same-day news of new weight releases. Lemmy's reference information includes only KRAFTON's MoE release (10/22) and benchmark improvements for DeepSeek V4.1 Flash (10/17).

What to watch

  1. Further developments in the price war — The specifics of the “80% price cut” (which models, over what period) cannot be established from the thread's title and comments. r/OpenAI https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1xfkqa2/
  2. Expert reactions to OpenAI's “three new discoveries” — Whether validation progresses. Lemmy https://piefed.world/c/tech/p/1494404/
  3. Adoption of the local acceleration tool MAFDET — It is Apache-2.0 licensed and runs on llama.cpp. r/LocalLLM https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1xclfjf/
  4. What Kimi K3.1 / Qwen 4 actually are — Only the names appeared in video titles and search summaries, so corroboration is needed. YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZgsphLx2Hc
  5. Allegations of data transmission by Alibaba models — Mentioned in a Lemmy localllama post; its contents have not been verified. https://lemmy.world/post/53663653

Recommendations

  • For pricing stories, verify the figures against each company's official pricing table before writing an article.
  • Verify OpenAI's announcement using primary sources and expert comments, rather than Lemmy reposts.
  • Search X using LLM-related terms (model names, company names, and "open weights") and collect the data again.
  • Retry Bluesky through browser rendering or an authenticated API.
  • Switch to a method that can retrieve view counts, channels, and posting dates for YouTube before comparing levels of attention.
  • Do not make definitive claims about model names that appear only in video titles until they are confirmed by official announcements.

Data quality

Of the five designated platforms, the only actual posts we could read were on Reddit and Lemmy (for Lemmy, titles and metadata only). YouTube provided only titles and URLs (eight items), X had zero items, and Bluesky also had zero, so none met the completion requirement of “ten each.” This report is therefore provisional. There were also no posts dated today (10/28).

Ten of these are substantively readable as LLM topics; the eleventh is off-topic because it is casual discussion about a news site. The newest post is from 2026-10-27 (#11), and the newest LLM-related post is from 2026-10-26. No posts dated the target day (10-28) were collected.

What people say
  • The most discussed topic today was “price disruption.” #1 "OpenAI and Anthropic cut their LLM prices by up to 80% within a few months. Why?"(r/OpenAI · 824 points · 228 comments · 2026-10-26) https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1xfkqa2/ . The top comment was “China” (u/Atomicfarms · 531), followed by “They implemented some of the techniques that Deepseek uses to make inference cheaper.” (u/DistanceSolar1449 · 242). The prevailing view is that pressure from Chinese players (the DeepSeek camp) and more efficient inference explain the price cuts. There was also the sarcastic “out of the goodness of their hearts” (17).
  • The “everything will be local eventually” argument. #4 "everything will be local eventually"(r/LocalLLaMA · 340 points · 237 comments · 2026-10-23) https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1xdcpxb/ . While calling Opus 5.5 “in a league of their own,” the poster argues that small specialized models will become mainstream. The top comment (211) counters that labs are losing money because of training costs, while “Inference is profitable.” Another estimate says the compute required for equivalent performance halves every nine months (u/twilight-actual · 20).
  • Practical tools for local inference. #10 "I made my local LLM start thinking while I'm still typing: 12s → 3s wait on a 6 GB GPU (open source)"(r/LocalLLM · 486 points · 82 comments · 2026-10-22) https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1xclfjf/ . MAFDET (Apache-2.0, running on llama.cpp). On an RTX 2060, it reduces Qwen3-4B wait time from 12.2 seconds to 3.2 seconds, and Qwen3-14B from 108 seconds to 47 seconds. Comments responded favorably, calling it “a breath of fresh air from the 'what model is best for xxxx on xxxxx hardware' posts” (u/WyattTheSkid · 112).
  • Has AI taken developers' jobs? #7(r/ExperiencedDevs · 477 points · 293 comments · 2026-10-24) https://www.reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs/comments/1xdw1ou/ . An analysis says U.S. software developer employment rose from about 2.2 million in 2022 to about 2.6 million (January–September 2026). Comments were divided: “it would obviously not kill software engineering” (239), concerns about a “skills crunch” (232), and voices questioning employment statistics with “try to find a job and experience the job market yourself” (57).
  • Debate over gender bias in LLMs. #2(r/itsthatbad · 939 points · 185 comments · 2026-10-24) https://www.reddit.com/r/itsthatbad/comments/1xec79x/ . An introduction to research claiming that “all major LLMs are biased against men.” It cites an example in which GPT-4 was rated as more likely to permit “violence against men.” Comments included the explanation that it is simply erring on the safe side for “liability purposes” (u/FigOk4231 · 106). The original research could not be confirmed from the collected material, so this only relays the post's claim as-is.
  • The bubble-collapse argument. #6 "finally it's really happening"(r/AIdaily_news · 51 points · 168 comments · 2026-10-26) https://www.reddit.com/r/AIdaily_news/comments/1xg8435/ . The body was not collected, so this is inferred from comments: “China's STAR50 index ... is down 40% since June” and “KOSPI is down 42% since June” (u/atape_1 · 3). There were also doubts about the headline (“How do I know this isn't an AI generated headline?” 19). The figures are claims from a single comment and could not be corroborated.
  • Agent use in security work. #8(r/cybersecurity · 50 points · 57 comments · 2026-10-23) https://www.reddit.com/r/cybersecurity/comments/1xdkosm/ . Real-world examples included the M365 Defender CLI “xdr-cli” (u/nerfblasters · 15) and automated generation of vendor/CVE daily reports (u/lonejeeper · 13). On the other hand, there was also fatigue with the terminology: “I'm starting to develop a twitch when I hear the word agentic” (106).
  • A non-engineer's question about getting started. #9 "Pardon my ignorance. But what do you do with an LLM?"(r/LocalLLM · 163 points · 284 comments · 2026-10-21) https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLM/comments/1xbap8p/ . The top answer was “Space heater” (212). Other uses included teaching-material preparation by a math teacher (97).
  • Meme-like posts. #3(r/OpenAI · 302 points · 37 comments · 2026-10-26) https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1xg5ge8/ and #5(r/ArtificialInteligence · 406 points · 46 comments · 2026-10-26) https://www.reddit.com/r/ArtificialInteligence/comments/1xg4ht9/ share the title "They need to know how it all happened". With no body text (apparently images), comments were mainly jokes about preserving records to tell AI about history. They have no news value.
Signals
  • Rising: Falling prices (#1) and localization (#4, #10) point in the same direction. The view that Chinese players' cost efficiency is driving price competition sits alongside the view that inference will shift to small, local models.
  • Where opinion split: Against the premise that “labs are losing money,” LocalLLaMA countered that training loses money while inference is profitable (#4). On employment, statistics showing growth (#7) conflicted with comments that “the reality on the ground is different.”
  • Dismissal and fatigue: Weariness with the word “agentic” (#8), and with “what model is best for…”-type questions (#10).
  • Surprising: This collection did not include a single thread about new model announcements, open-weight releases, or benchmarks themselves. Rather than breaking “LLM news,” commentary on pricing, jobs, and the bubble occupied the top spots. The only model names appearing frequently were references to Opus 5.5 (#4) and a Qwen3 implementation example (#10).
Limits
  • The only search term was "Daily LLM News." This term also matched general news headlines, bringing in an unrelated thread (#11), while missing threads about new models and API price changes.
  • The completion criterion was 10 items. Ten could be read as LLM-related, but #3 and #5 were low-substance memes with the same title, and #11 was unrelated, so there were effectively only 8 valid news items.
  • There were no posts from the day itself (2026-10-28). The latest were from 10-26 (LLM-related).
  • According to logs/warnings.txt, another thread in r/AIdaily_news (https://www.reddit.com/r/AIdaily_news/comments/1xbjugo/) could not be opened due to a CAPTCHA block, so collection was stopped.
  • #6, #3, and #5 had empty bodies and were read using only their comments and titles. Only the top 6 comments by score were available, so they may not represent the discussion as a whole.
  • I did not access Reddit directly (following the playbook, I relied only on the collected reddit.threads.md).

X

X — Daily LLM News

Date: 2026-10-28 (the collected posts are from 2026-10-26 to 27)

To get straight to the point, none of the 40 posts collected from X this time were related to LLMs. The worker collected posts by following X Explore trends, but all 10 trends were about topics such as football, rail delays, Brazilian politics, Japanese sweets, and Islamic prayer, with no posts mentioning LLMs, AI models, APIs, or benchmarks (the only item that looked AI-related was a post seeking advertising work for AI-generated images of attractive women under #広告案件募集中, which is not news). What follows is a record of “what X was talking about today,” not a substitute for LLM news.

Where Explore came from

In the x.posts.md table, the trends' “Where” field is listed as "Sports · Trending," "Only on X · Trending," "Food · Trending," "Politics · Trending," and "Trending worldwide" (Havertz only). No country or region is explicitly stated. Because Japanese (Keihin-Tohoku Line, Sankaku Choco Pie), Portuguese (Brazilian shows and politics), Arabic, and English (football) are mixed together, it cannot be conclusively identified as a list for any particular country. The effect of the server's location is also unknown, so it should not be read as global trends. The Posts on X count column showed "—" on every row (unavailable).

The search terms, in trend order, were the following 10: "Fleetwood," "Arsenal," "#CorridaDasBlogueiras8," "京浜東北線," "Havertz," "Arteta," "Dowman," "#三角チョコパイ白の新作早く食べたい," "#وبالاسحار_هم_يستغفرون," and "#FlavioFugitivo." Not a single LLM-related term (such as model names, company names, or "LLM") was searched.

Accounts

No accounts discussing LLMs appeared in the collected results. Instead, here are the accounts driving X today, grouped by scale.

  • Major posts that surged by an order of magnitude in a single shot
    • @MidiaNINJA(Mídia NINJA): 1 post with 50,689 likes and 14,493 reposts. A Brazilian political media outlet.
    • @_janoninho_fc(Janoninho - (Lula)): 1 post with 8,490 likes, 4,061 reposts, and 970 replies.
    • @Arsenal(official): 1 post with 2,486 likes, 368 reposts, and 352 replies, with about 475,000 views.
  • Mid-sized (hundreds of likes): @Premier_Argenta(731), @UPYOURARSENAL04(591), @AnythingLFC_(375), @ldnwillbeblue(374), @B4NKAl(328). All are football fan accounts, with one post each.
  • A collection of small posts: @SamAkinSeun alone had 2 posts (193 likes total). @TV60292724 made 2 posts with the same text (5 likes total). The rest had one post each, receiving 0 to just over 100 likes.
Posts

Since there were no LLM posts, the topics with the greatest response among the collected posts are recorded as “what X talked about most today” (all unrelated to LLMs).

  1. #FlavioFugitivo (Brazilian politics) — Post #38 by @MidiaNINJA: “Familícia.” 50,689 likes, 14,493 reposts, 505 replies, about 338,000 views, 2026-10-27. https://x.com/MidiaNINJA/status/2115136140994826605

  10. #وبالاسحار_هم_يستغفرون (prayer hashtag) — Post #35 by @soooo5000: 106 likes, 28 reposts, about 6,200 views, 2026-10-27. https://x.com/soooo5000/status/2115205709826552077

The completion requirement of “10 latest LLM-related posts” has not been met. The 10 posts above are non-LLM posts included for reference.

Signals
  • It is not so much that X was not talking about LLMs today, but that LLMs did not appear in Explore. None of the 10 collected trends or the 40 posts searched from them concerned LLMs. This data cannot tell whether LLM news was genuinely buried or simply fell outside the scope of this Explore feed (region and account preferences).
  • The largest waves were Brazil’s #FlavioFugitivo (Portuguese-speaking sphere, tens of thousands of likes) and Arsenal’s Carabao Cup loss to Fleetwood (English-speaking football sphere).
  • In the Japanese-speaking sphere, the Keihin-Tohoku Line suspension due to a fallen tree reached tens of thousands to around 200,000 views even on posts from small accounts.
  • One surprising point: the larger the post, the shorter its body (“Familícia.”, for example). The size of the numbers does not correlate with the amount of information.
Limits
  • Main limitation: The worker followed only Explore trends and did not search for LLM-related terms (for example, model names, "LLM," names of major companies, or "open weights"). Therefore, this does not show that no LLM posts exist on X; it shows only the fact that this collection found 0 LLM posts.
  • Following the playbook, I did not consult X myself (X shows nothing to viewers who are not logged in). No posts that could serve as evidence for writing LLM news about X exist in the collected material, so I have not written any.
  • Explore’s region is not explicitly shown in X’s interface (see above), and the count for “Posts on X” was "—" on every row.
  • The collection contains only 40 posts from 38 accounts. The dates are 2026-10-26 to 27, and it includes no posts from 2026-10-28 itself.
  • Suggested improvement: next time, add searches using LLM-related terms for the worker, or reconsider how the X stage is handled (other stages, such as Reddit, may be better suited to LLM news).

YouTube

YouTube — Daily LLM News (2026-10-28)

The body of YouTube pages (view counts, channel names, and posting dates) could not be retrieved in this run. The following is based only on video titles and URLs shown in WebSearch results, along with the relative posting times found in search-result snippets. Numbers have not been filled in by guesswork.

Channels
  • Channel names and subscriber counts could not be retrieved from any video page.
  • From the title formats, it is only clear that English-language weekly “AI NEWS” roundup channels and Japanese weekly AI news roundup channels cover LLM news. The channels themselves could not be identified.
Videos

Posting times remain in the relative wording used in WebSearch result snippets. All view counts are unknown.

  1. “HUGE GPT-7 BEL UPDATE! Claude REA BANNED, Gemini 4 Carbon Is INSANE, Qwen 4 LEAKS, & More! AI NEWS” — Posted about 2 days ago. A weekly roundup covering new closed-model releases and leak information together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZMKzHhlTh8
  2. “【10月第4週まとめ①】Claude全機能がGoogle Cloudで解禁／ChatGPT Slidesでパワポ激変／DeepSeek削除命令／謎のaurora｜AIニュース5本を全解説” — Fourth week of October (the search snippet describes content from 10/19 to 25). A Japanese roundup covering Claude support in Google Cloud, ChatGPT Slides, and an order to remove DeepSeek. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFvvFlNWnrI
  3. “GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Sonnet 5.5 & Gemini 4 Argon: This Week's AI News” — Said to be about 23 days ago. Introduces new models from the three companies side by side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmHO3rARmjM
  4. “Gemini 4, GPT 6.1, Plasma conjecture, Napoleon code solved, OpenAI Dots, Claude Sonnet 5.5: AI NEWS” — Date unknown. It appears to be a roundup of announcements around Dev Day (inferred from the title). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHmZoRHMZyM
  5. “GPT 6 Astra, Claude Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.8, realtime Minimax, new world models: AI NEWS” — Date unknown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngyFRCNq0Yc

  7. “Gemini 4 Flash SOON, Fable 5 is Back, GPT-5.6 Codex Update, Seed Dance 2.5, & More! AI NEWS” — Date unknown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7k0Lcs5bZk
  8. “Every New AI Model Explained (2026)” — Date unknown. An overview of models from 2026. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKuAyll41a8

Other search-result snippets mentioned Moonshot AI’s Kimi K3.1 Pro (3 trillion parameters, about 3 days ago) and OpenAI Dev Day (GPT-6.1 Sol, always-on Dots, ChatGPT Spaces, about 24 days ago), but the corresponding video URLs could not be identified.

Signals
  • The titles of weekly roundup videos were dominated by closed-model names from three companies: Gemini 4 (Argon / Carbon / Flash), GPT-6.1 (Sol / Astra), and Claude (Sonnet 5.5 / Fable 5.x).
  • On the open-weights side, Kimi K3 / K3.1 and Qwen 4 leak information appeared in headlines, and there was a Japanese roundup covering Kimi K3 (video 6).
  • In the Japanese-speaking sphere, Claude’s integration with Google Cloud, ChatGPT Slides, and an order to remove DeepSeek were topics in the fourth week of October (video 2).
  • The relative level of attention cannot be judged because view counts were unavailable.
Limits
  • The completion criterion of “10 items” was not reached. Only 8 could be confirmed, and only by title and URL.
  • YouTube search-result pages and watch pages returned only footers through WebFetch, so view counts, channel names, subscriber counts, exact posting dates, descriptions, and comments could not be retrieved.
  • Directly retrieving HTML with curl could not be performed due to the shell restrictions in this environment.
  • The search-result titles include model names whose existence could not be verified (for example, GPT-7 BEL and Claude REA). These merely reproduce the titles’ wording; their contents have not been independently verified.
  • Posting dates for videos other than 1–3 are unknown. Some may not have been confirmed as “latest.”

    • Aleph Alpha's Kolibri (78.1B MoE, open weights under Apache 2.0)
  • It is not possible to identify what is being discussed most on Bluesky today because of insufficient data.
Limits
  • searchPosts on public.api.bsky.app returned HTTP 403 via WebFetch (q=LLM and q=open weights both had the same result). Like counts, repost counts, and post times could not be obtained.
  • https://bsky.app/search?q=LLM and individual post and profile pages returned only header strings via WebFetch, so post text could not be obtained (because they are rendered with JS).
  • An alternative retrieval method using curl from Bash could not be run because approval was not obtained.
  • The completion criterion of reading 10 dated posts was not met: 0 posts were read. Treat this stage as effectively unsuccessful. It is expected to be resolved by rerunning it in an environment capable of browser rendering or with authenticated API access.

Lemmy — Daily LLM News (2026-10-28)

The most prominent item on Lemmy today was OpenAI's October 27 announcement of "three new discoveries in mathematics, computer science, and physics." It was reposted across multiple communities, but all scores were low and the response was muted. Across Lemmy as a whole, engagement with LLM news is small.

Reference (local LLM-related posts that recently gained traction):

Signals
  • What is being discussed most today: OpenAI's announcement of "three new discoveries." The response on Lemmy is small, and scores are generally low.
  • Open-weights side: Practical topics in localllama are the focus. These include local models for agents (27 comments), use of small Qwen-family models, and looping bugs. More recently, there were also DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and KRAFTON MoE releases.
  • Closed-model players: Rather than major new-model announcements, corporate developments stood out, such as OpenAI's stance on safety regulation and Anthropic's IPO preparations. The Anthropic IPO article was an Italian-language repost and had a score of 1.
  • Security: On 10/26, there was a post about a "PyPI supply-chain attack through exposed LiteLLM keys," but it received limited attention, with a score of 1. https://infosec.pub/post/54125542
  • Many AI-related posts are automated reposts (ai_reddit); localllama is about the only place where human discussion is developing.
Limits
  • Lemmy is small, and most LLM posts today (10/27–28) had scores of 0–2 and 0–1 comments. There was almost nothing that could be called lively discussion.
  • Because public APIs (lemmy.world search and the sh.itjust.works community list) were read via WebFetch, extraction by a summarization model was involved. The post bodies were not read; only titles and metadata were checked.
  • For some items, including the Alibaba case, only title summaries could be obtained, and the content could not be confirmed.
  • Some posts point to URLs on other instances or the original repost source, and may not match IDs accessed via lemmy.world.
  • No posts from October 28 itself were found at the time of retrieval. The latest were from October 27 (UTC).
  • Subscriber counts other than for localllama could not be retrieved.
  • Ten recent posts could be listed, but only a limited number contained substantive LLM news.

Recommended Actions

  • For pricing topics, verify figures against each company's official price list before writing about them.
  • Verify OpenAI's "three new discoveries" using primary information and expert reactions, rather than Lemmy reposts.
  • Search X again using LLM-related terms (model names, company names, open weights) and collect the results anew.
  • Rerun Bluesky using browser rendering or an authenticated API.
  • Switch YouTube to a method that can retrieve view counts, channel names, and publication dates, and do not make definitive claims about model names that appear only in video titles until they are confirmed through official announcements.

Data Quality Notes

The only posts that could be read were Reddit and Lemmy (for Lemmy, titles and metadata only); YouTube had eight titles and URLs, while X and Bluesky had 0 LLM posts. None of the social networks met the completion requirement of 10 posts each, and there were also no posts dated October 28.
