Alibaba's new model is available only as a temporary preview scheduled to retire on November 25, 2026.
The experimental preview models use reserved special tokens to separate instructions from data, achieving higher robustness against prompt injections without sacrificing general benchmark performance.
The release accompanies the MACaQ paper (arXiv:2611.10649) and is available via the huawei-csl GitHub repository.
The 321B parameter model based on GLM-5.3-Flash defaults to max reasoning, requiring token usage checks before comparison.
The new models offer up to 30% faster output speeds, improved coding and reasoning capabilities, and reduced false positives in cybersecurity and biology safeguards.
The smallest 0.8B model outperforms existing translation-specialized LLMs with over 30 times the parameters in Japanese-English and multilingual tasks.
The 45B parameter model processes audio, video, and text in 160ms chunks while delegating complex reasoning to a larger backend model to maintain low latency.
The model was trained on 610M samples at 512px and 50M samples at 1024px before post-training with an FDFO variant.
Thinking Machines AI introduces Inkling 2 Small, a 594B MoE model with 17B active parameters, initially available with closed weights on Tinker, with full Apache 2.0 open weights planned for next week.
The 65B parameter model achieves a TerminalBench 2.1 score of 80.52, outperforming larger competitors like Reflection Beam 501B and Meta Muse Spark Open 816B.
The model offers zero data retention for standard inference and requires OpenClaw v2026.10.10 to access.
The model supports input sampling rates from 8 to 48 kHz and is designed to restore speech quality while preserving fidelity across diverse degradations.
The Qwen series has surpassed 3 billion cumulative global downloads, with over 460 open-source models released and more than 300,000 derivative models.
The model uses a looped decoder to execute 56 layer passes from 32 distinct layers, supporting text and image inputs for agentic workflows.
The model ranks #1 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5.0 at 59 and leads in vulnerability detection with 88.2% on SEC-bench Pro.
The 1B OCR model runs locally on mobile devices while the 2B verifier model checks output accuracy against original images.
The new model offers 50% lower standard API pricing than GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol, while scoring 15 percentage points higher on the Agents' Last Exam benchmark at one-third the cost.
The model is now accessible for use with agents within the OpenClaw platform.
The new open-source models match GPT 6 Luna quality on the Decision Index while costing one-tenth as much.
The 4B parameter model uses a looped architecture with interleaved sliding-window and full attention to scale intelligence on a small footprint.
The 2B parameter model achieves up to 500 tokens per second locally in the browser on an M4 Max using custom WebGPU kernels.
Krea has released Krea 3, a frontier image editing model claiming to be 10x faster and 3x cheaper than Nano Banana Pro, with a launch price of $0.06 per image.
The model achieves top rankings in internal evaluations against larger open and closed competitors while running on consumer GPUs with as little as 8GB of VRAM.
The release includes quantized versions of the 32B, 7B, 3.7B, and 0.9B parameter models.
