We continue our series about model distillation. In the AI of the Week, we are going to discuss OpenAI’s recent analysis of coding benchamarks.
Journal of Financial Planning: June 2026 NOTE: Please be aware that the audio version, created with Amazon Polly, may contain mispronunciations. Executive Summary This study evaluated the consistency and fairness of financial recommendations generated by seven widely used GenAI tools across three core areas of household financial planning: emergency…
Congrats to Meta Superintelligence on having the top 2/3 image/video models in the world! This would’ve been a candidate for a title story, but unfortunately that is pretty much all the detail we have about Muse Image/Video - no paper, no technical detail whatsoever.
On Monday, Decagon CEO Jesse Zhang published a provocative new theory, posted under the title “Everyone is wrong about open source AI in the enterprise.” The post grapples with one of the most interesting contradictions of today’s AI economy: More mature AI deployments are switching to lighter models, he says, even at his own company. But the overall spend…
Hugging Face Models on Foundry Managed Compute At Microsoft Build 2026, we announced Foundry Managed Compute and Hugging Face models on Foundry — a curated catalog of open-weight models from the Hugging Face ecosystem, refreshed weekly, deployable in one click onto Foundry Managed Compute. Weights are pre-staged in Azure, runtimes are built and scanned by…
While we congratulate (friend of the show!) General Intuition on their new model and (friend of the show!) Shunyu Yao on their new model , and the world awaits the release of GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra , people are racing to find the limits of Fable 5 before the subscription subsidy ends tomorrow . Thariq had been working on a “ Field Guide to Fable ” blog series,…
Last week, researchers at cloud security firm Sysdig said they’d documented the first known case of “agentic ransomware.” It was an extortion operation, dubbed JadePuffer, in which an AI agent — not a human — handled the technical execution of a real-world cyberattack from start to finish. The agent broke into a vulnerable server, stole credentials, moved…
Known for its cloud infrastructure that allows developers to deploy agents without managing servers, Vercel has quietly become one of the most central companies in AI software. The company currently sees 6 million deployments a day, half of them triggered by coding agents, and more than 1 trillion tokens flow through the company’s AI gateway daily.
Fable was relaunched on schedule, and AIE was on top of it with the first Field Guide to Fable talk , as well as the rest of the excellent Richard MacManus coverage of AIEWF Day 3 across Autoresearch , Cursor FDE , and a followup to Zach Lloyd’s popular talk yesterday on Software Factories , as well as “all killer no filler” closing keynotes: AI News for…
In separate announcements, Sonnet 5 was released today, and Fable/Mythos 5 were approved to be released again after some work with the government. The primary discussion around Sonnet 5’s efficiency was a damper on the excitement, driven by tokenizer changes and 3-6x more turn taking in benchmarks: Oh my god, Sonnet 5 was MORE EXPENSIVE THAN FABLE to run…
Ahmad Osman at the AI Engineer World’s Fair today. Ahmad Osman has been advocating for local AI — running models on your own computer, workstation or dedicated hardware — long before it became a major theme at this year’s AI Engineer World’s Fair .
It’s an odd thing to say “not much happened” while running AIEWF workshops, but objectively, that is true - vibes were good but the wider world collectively took a breather to process that shock Germany loss today. In the meantime you can think though how to build better Skills, which is emerging as a top theme of the conference throughout the week.
Run a vLLM Server on HF Jobs in One Command You can spin up a private, OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoint on Hugging Face infrastructure with a single command — no servers to provision, no Kubernetes, pay-per-second. Once it's up, you can query it from your laptop, a notebook, or anywhere else.
Accelerating Transformers Fine-Tuning with NVIDIA NeMo AutoModel HuggingFace Transformers has become the foundation of the open-source AI ecosystem, and the recent Transformers v5 release strengthened it with first-class support for Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models, now the dominant architecture for frontier models . v5 ships the MoE foundations: expert…
Congrats due to Baseten, who officially announced their leaked $13B Series F. Today had a smattering of midsize news across OpenAI Daybreak and Gemini Interactions and Sakana Fugu, but probably the trend to watch and hang your hat on is SpaceX’s THIRD GPU rental deal, this time with Reflection AI: Andrew Curran @AndrewCurran_ SpaceX has signed a $6.3…
A fun, personal note to start the week — about AI evaluations, and why we made the best models in the world fight over a virtual ball. Before we start, watch this 12 seconds video: Cool right?
We continue our series about alternatives to transformers. Our opinion section discusses an intriguing thesis: systems of action vs.
A research group that includes Huawei Technologies says it completed full-parameter post-training of DeepSeek's V4-Pro, a 1.6-trillion-parameter model. The group used a cluster of at least 1,000 Huawei Ascend 910C chips, according to the Shenzhen municipal government, as reported by the South China Morning Post .
Job Searcher Job hunting as a new grad is a full-time job by itself. You sift through hundreds of postings every week to find a handful worth applying to.
Do check out the excellent RL Env guide we posted today! And more lightning pods over the weekend, starting with our CommandCode remote pod on harness optimization for DeepSeek v4 Pro .
When Quilty hit the industry trades earlier this year, the AI startup promised that its tool could accurately predict a film’s success just by reading the script. When people actually got a chance to experiment with Quilty’s product, though, they were left skeptical.
Anthropic is seeing Sparks of RSI , OpenAI’s ChatGPT has finally crossed 1B MAU ~5 months behind schedule and improved memory , and SpaceXAI is explaining its IPO to people who might not know they will be forced into buying it . None of which are as important as getting your AIEWF tickets and hotels and tuning in to the latest pod with Andon Labs !
Designing the hf CLI as an agent-optimized way to work with the Hub hf is the official command-line entrypoint to the Hugging Face Hub. Anything you can do on the Hub from the Python SDK, you can do from your terminal: download and upload models, datasets and Spaces; create and manage repos, branches, tags and pull requests; run Jobs on HF infrastructure;…
In 2025, seven-month-old startup Axiom solved all 12 of the problems Putnam exam (scoring 8/12 in the time limit) a prestigious undergraduate math exam. The 12/12 score is better than the top undergraduates (110/120) and the closest AI system that reported a result (DeepSeek 103/120), although it is unclear what the people and other systems would have…
Today was a big day, not least because we caught up on the state of GitHub vs Agents , and recorded a special pod with No Priors and Satya Nadella — at MS Build, Satya and Mustafa announced 7 new MAI models: This is an impressive lineup, especially considering that the Microsoft-Inflection deal that set up MAI only happened 2 years ago, and that these are…
