Interconnects newsletter reviews wave of open AI releases
Nathan Lambert published an Interconnects newsletter installment on interconnects.ai that examined five major open AI model launches this month: Gemma 4, DeepSeek V4, Kimi K2.6, MiMo 2.5, and GLM-5.1. The coverage placed the releases within an unusually active stretch of flagship open-model announcements and evaluated them under CAISI's V4 framework. The post presented the activity as sustained momentum across several labs while also noting parallel state-of-the-art efforts planned by Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, xAI, and Meta.

i also comment on the open<>closed model gap, where US CAISI and @EpochAIResearch disagree, arguing that both are incomplete: for an assessment of the very frontier, we must elicit the best performance by tuning prompts and harnesses with the models

#1711🍓🍓🍓@IRULETHEWORLDMOthis week on agi wars, anthropic, google, and openai set to release their latest and greatest models in a bid to retake the 'current best sota' award.
xai continue to bleed staff because the type of people that can make the agi aren't the typical type of people elon hires, and his hammer drives them away.
meta continue to pretend ohhhhh boyyy, this is just the starter baby, oh boy, oh you wait. you'll have asi in some glasses real real soon, boy howdy yeah.
gemini after briefly appearing to turn the ship with its code red is still frozen in the chatbot era. sigh.
sorry, i was just going to say, three big models next week and got a little carried away.
codex mobile is insane btw.
typing this out on my phone and noticed my laptop in the corner of the room start doing some work.
