How can we make a better TerminalBench agent?
Today, we are announcing the OpenThoughts-Agent project.
OpenThoughts-Agent v1 is the first TerminalBench agent trained on fully open curated SFT and RL environments.
OpenThinker-Agent-v1 is the strongest model of its size on TerminalBench, and sets a new bar on our newly released OpenThoughts-TB-Dev benchmark. (1/n)
Last week at @UTAustin@MLFoundations I gave a talk called “reasoning: a double edged sword.”
We went from language models generating new hypotheses about cancer cell behavior, to ChatGPT tackling fresh (simple) math conjectures, to reasoning powered jailbreaks.

Today is a wonderful day!
Celebrating 2 first-author NeurIPS spotlight papers.
Both works are about training and sampling generative models in data-challenging settings.
I am also in the academic job market this year, seeking tenure-track positions in the US and the EU.
🍎 📓 🔭 Welcome back, Longhorns!
There is nothing like the start of another school year.
We hope everyone is excited to experience the fullness of this special time, embarking on another semester filled with possibility!
#WhatStartsHere
Our work unlocks new possibilities for AI on power- and bandwidth-constrained devices, like wearables and satellites. Congrats on winning the Best Paper Award, Dan!! @UT_SysML
Sending our congratulations to @PeterStone_TX, who has just been named Chair of the Department of Computer Science at @UTAustin! @UTexasResearch

Excited to join DevRev board of directors. DevRev has an impressive vision for AI agents and great understanding of where the real problems lie. Training real-world agents that are reliable and enterprise-ready will be a multi-year effort, and it all starts with reliable data and RL environments. I'm eager to help to make this vision a reality.
Educational institutions are debuting AI courses, degrees and certifications, aiming to help people become AI “literate.”
While some worry AI could replace them at work, others hope education will help them get ahead. https://t.co/e5gWz7BQfa
