We are releasing Ultramarine 1 Flash, a frontier-class model built for knowledge work. It is open-source and achieves similar performance to Fable 5, while being 60x cheaper.

It was post-trained by a team of 5 for ~$300k all-in. Available on API now, with weights releasing in 2 weeks.

Two years ago I came to SF knowing almost nobody. Now I have enough friends there that I could drop by any time. I want to do the same with China.

Given what we're building with @dm_robots it's probably the most important country to have connections in, and my only time there was a student exchange in Shanghai in 2014. I’m not sure where to start, so the plan is to show up and get going.

It’s so easy to forget your first impressions when you’re in a country so I’ll be sharing daily updates my impressions and what’s working for us here.

Next two weeks: the Greater Bay Area, starting in Hong Kong.

Day 1
> Left Zürich at 1 PM and landed 12 hours later at 7 AM, on very little sleep. The last few days before leaving were packed with meetings, mostly interviews, so today was just about settling in and planning.
> The skyline is incredible, and the hills around it make the whole panorama spectacular. NYC has plenty of skyscrapers too, but it doesn't come close.
> Craziest fact I learned today: Greater China has 1.3M foreign residents, and a third of them live in Hong Kong.

Announcing the beta release of the Pi API. We’ve partnered with companies across diverse industries to adapt our models to their robots and applications, from harvesting strawberries to assembling servers. Now we’re opening access to more teams.

If you die in SF, they don’t bury you; your body is used as an RL environment

People are getting into ML absurdly early now.

Dun Li applied to us for a research internship. Three papers at NeurIPS, a medal at the International Olympiad on Astronomy and Astrophysics.

Said he’d have to work remote though. He’s still in his last year of high school in Gelugor, Malaysia...
