… Claude 3.5 Haiku—the highest-rated model released in 2024—received a mean rating of just 73.1 on the benchmark. That mark would put it in the bottom third of models released in 2026 on this metric. …
… Faster local inference right now Google has released new versions of Gemma 4 models with MTP that you can try today. Google says the MTP drafter can make Gemma models up to three times faster, but the actual gain varies based on the hardware you use. …
… The next few months will be telling as Google looks at opening the Omni model up to more output types to see how it performs compared to Google’s other models. “We might find that there are certain use cases that really benefit from their own custom model and specific focus,” said Doshi. “It’s not … …
… To date, CAISI said it has completed about 40 evaluations, including those of frontier models that have yet to be released. …
… While the team has needed to fine-tune generic AI models to prevent problems of “consistency and controllability,” Totoki added that these models can, in some cases, help enable “highly sophisticated and realistic outputs which were not feasible before due to production time constraints.” Even as A… …
… The government sought to evaluate models up to 90 days prior to release, while AI labs pushed for a much shorter timeline of only 14 days. …
… As users sought ways to remove this AI model, many looked for the settings toggle. This happened to coincide with the wide release of Chrome 148, and the label for this toggle included a pretty suspicious change versus v147. …
… More recently, the company has begun using so-called “virtual world” models to help AI systems learn to operate in physical reality . …
… Encrypted RCS messaging has a “beta” label in this release, and Apple says it’s limited to a subset of supported cellular carriers . …
… The result will be a hybrid climate model—mostly physics-based, but with machine learning components. “I think our essential bet is that it’s important to retain physical guardrails so that we can confidently predict the climate for which we do not have data,” Schneider told Ars, “which forces you … …
