Proud to have participated in the GPT4o vs Gemini 1.5 hackathon at SF last weekend with @notionsmith and @sachscode Ryota Yoda. Thanks @thomasschulzz , @AlexReibman and jacob at @solarissociety for the event and @AustinPeirson for the video (our project is at 1:13).

Last week OpenAI released GPT-4o and Google launched Gemini 1.5 Flash+ to the world

We wanted to see what model is better, so we brought together 100+ AI builders in SF

Who do you think won?

The streets won’t be the same anymore.

New AMD paper builds a small fully open language model Instella.

Instella is a 3B parameter model family where the authors share weights, training code, and data recipe so others can fully reproduce it.

They first train on huge open text, then on more reasoning heavy data, and finally on about 2.3M instruction examples with a preference step that shapes answers toward human choices.

They also make Instella Long, which can read inputs up to 128K tokens using extra long training data from books and papers, and Instella Math, which gets more math datasets plus reinforcement learning that rewards better solution steps.

Across many benchmarks these models beat earlier fully open ones and come close to the best open weight baselines while staying transparent.

In the lightning-fast world of AI and tech, staying current can feel like chasing a moving target. This week at @VentureBeat Transform, the "Women in AI" panel was a highlight. We're lucky to have @aparnabsinha as an early supporter. The key takeaway: community is everything.
