Open benchmarking done right. @nvidia's Nemotron Nano 12B hitting 30B-level quality significantly lower cost for workloads. Proud to have them as a MediaPerf governance board partner 🚀

[NVIDIA AI Developer @NVIDIAAIDev]

Our Nemotron Nano 12B v2 VL brings video understanding on-prem.

MediaPerf benchmark launched by Coactive ranks our 12B model on par with 30B-size models at less than half the footprint:

✅ Cost Efficiency: Lowest cost for Tagging Refinement workload.
✅ Pro-Grade Quality: 0.299 F1 on real-world media tasks.
✅ Massive Throughput: 4.48 hrs video/hr - 15% faster than the leading 30B OS alternative.
✅ Sovereignty: Self-hostable, open model for every developer worldwide.
✅ Transparency: Open training datasets, techniques, and libraries.

1/ Why has Autonomous Driving (AD) failed? We believe that the key to unlocking AD may be in 1) collecting rich out-of-distribution data from emerging economies such as #Peru; and 2) developing brain-aligned computer vision models #NeuroAI

Our #DMLR workshop at @icmlconf accepted 108 submissions!

Thanks to all the authors and reviewers for your hard work. We look forward to seeing you in Hawaii! 🏝️

[Will Gaviria Rojas @willg_ai]

Excited to share that I'll be giving a lightning talk tomorrow at the LLMs in Production conference

I'll cover key lessons we've learned at @CoactiveAI in designing #ai systems to process unstructured data at scale

A big shoutout to @Dpbrinkm and the @mlopscommunity team!🤘🙌

[Will Gaviria Rojas @willg_ai]

For folks in #AI working with distributed computing + complex data types (images, audio, etc), @daft_dataframe is a game changer.

Fast, performant and pythonic 👌

@Sammy_Sidhu and Jay are truly ahead of the curve

Why do we benchmark ML but not the data it relies on?

To close this gap, we are excited to announce #DataPerf - a collaboration across academia and industry to benchmark data-centric AI.
