Hey everyone, Alex here 👋 Welcome back, to an absolute banger of a week in AI releases, highlighted with just massive Open Source AI push. We're talking a MASSIVE 4M context window context window model from Hailuo (remember when a jump from 4K to 16K seemed like a big deal?), a 8B omni model that lets you livestream video and glimpses of Agentic ChatGPT? This week's ThursdAI was jam-packed with so much open source goodness that the big companies were practically silent. But don't worry, we still

Hey everyone, Alex here 👋This week's ThursdAI was a whirlwind of announcements, from Microsoft finally dropping Phi-4's official weights on Hugging Face (a month late, but who's counting?) to Sam Altman casually mentioning that OpenAI's got AGI in the bag and is now setting its sights on superintelligence. Oh, and NVIDIA? They're casually releasing a $3,000 supercomputer that can run 200B parameter models on your desktop. No big deal.We had some amazing guests this week too, with Oliver joining us

Hey folks, Alex here 👋 Happy new year!On our first episode of this year, and the second quarter of this century, there wasn't a lot of AI news to report on (most AI labs were on a well deserved break). So this week, I'm very happy to present a special ThursdAI episode, an interview with Joāo Moura, CEO of Crew.ai all about AI agents!We first chatted with Joāo a year ago, back in January of 2024, as CrewAI was blowing up but still just an open source project, it got to be the number 1 trending

Hey everyone, Alex here 👋I was hoping for a quiet holiday week, but whoa, while the last newsletter was only a week ago, what a looong week it has been, just Friday after the last newsletter, it felt like OpenAI has changed the world of AI once again with o3 and left everyone asking "was this AGI?" over the X-mas break (Hope Santa brought you some great gifts!) and then not to be outdone, DeepSeek open sourced basically a Claude 2.5 level behemoth DeepSeek v3 just this morning!Since the breaking

Hey folks, Alex here, writing this from the beautiful Vancouver BC, Canada. I'm here for NeurIPS 2024, the biggest ML conferences of the year, and let me tell you, this was one hell of a week to not be glued to the screen. After last week banger week, with OpenAI kicking off their 12 days of releases, with releasing o1 full and pro mode during ThursdAI, things went parabolic. It seems that all the AI labs decided to just dump EVERYTHING they have before the holidays? 🎅A day after our show, on

Look, I keep saying this, but weeks are getting crazier and crazier, this week we got the cheapest and the most expensive AI offerings all at once (the cheapest from Amazon and the most expensive from OpenAI), 2 new open weights models that beat commercial

I had to post a recap thread, something I do usually after I finish ThursdAI!

Hey folks, Alex here from Weights & Biases, and this week has been absolutely bonkers. From robots walking among us to rockets landing on chopsticks (well, almost), the future is feeling palpably closer. And if real-world robots and reusable spaceship boosters weren't enough, the open-source AI community has been cooking, dropping new models and techniques faster than a Starship launch. So buckle up, grab your space helmet and noise-canceling headphones (we’ll get to why those are important!), and

Hey Folks, we are finally due for a "relaxing" week in AI, no more HUGE company announcements (if you don't consider Meta Movie Gen huge), no conferences or dev days, and some time for Open Source projects to shine. (while we all wait for Opus 3.5 to shake things up) This week was very multimodal on the show, we covered 2 new video models, one that's tiny and is open source, and one massive from Meta that is aiming for SORA's crown, and 2 new VLMs, one from our friends at REKA that understands

Coming back from Dev Day (number 2) and am still processing, and wanted to actually do a recap by humans, not just the NotebookLM one I posted during the keynote itself (which was awesome and scary in a "will AI replace me as a podcaster" kind of way), and was incredible to have Simon Willison who was sitting just behind me most

March 14th, 2023 was the day ThursdAI was born, it was also the day OpenAI released GPT-4, and I jumped into a Twitter space and started chaotically reacting together with other folks about what a new release of a paradigm shifting model from OpenAI means, what are the details, the new capabilities. Today, it happened again! Hey, it's Alex, I'm back from my mini vacation (pic after the signature) and boy am I glad I decided to not miss September 12th!
