Despite crowded AI video synthesis field, Alibaba-backed project demonstrates breakthrough efficiency A new contender has entered the increasingly competitive AI video generation space with surprising capabilities that challenge commercial alternatives. Wan2.1, an open-source suite of video foundation models developed by Alibaba researchers now available on GitHub, promises Hollywood-grade output

Anthropic's latest release blurs line between instant answers and methodical problem-solving Anthropic has launched Claude 3.7 Sonnet—a new breed of AI model combining rapid-fire responses with deliberate reasoning capabilities in a single system. The release comes just six months after Claude 3.5 Sonnet redefined expectations

In a move poised to reshape how artificial intelligence systems process complex tasks across distributed networks, Beijing-based AI company DeepSeek has unveiled DeepEP – an open-source library tailored for optimizing Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures. Released during day two of its Open Source Week initiative (GitHub repository), this toolkit addresses one of AI’

Beijing—Just months after making waves with its open-source R1 reasoning model that rivaled OpenAI’s proprietary systems under a fraction of the cost, Chinese AI startup DeepSeek is reportedly accelerating development of its next-generation model codenamed "R2." Originally slated for May 2025, internal sources indicate the company

New optimization techniques approach theoretical hardware limits while slashing memory overhead As tech giants race to optimize increasingly complex AI models for real-world deployment, Chinese AI firm DeepSeek has thrown its hat in the ring with FlashMLA, an open-source decoding kernel promising record-breaking performance on NVIDIA’s Hopper architecture GPUs.

When Google researchers first introduced SigLIP in 2023, it reimagined vision-language training by replacing CLIP’s contrastive learning with a simpler binary classification approach. Now, the team is back with SigLIP 2—a family of open models that pushes multimodal AI forward through architectural tweaks, smarter training strategies, and a

A new open-source multimodal AI called Ovis2 is turning heads by matching—and sometimes surpassing—the capabilities of models ten times its size. Developed by AIDC-AI, this 34-billion parameter system builds on last year's Ovis1.6 architecture with structural improvements that better align visual and textual understanding, while

Alibaba Cloud has unveiled a major upgrade to its vision-language AI system that could reshape how enterprises handle everything from logistics paperwork to security footage analysis. Qwen2.5-VL, the newest iteration of the company’s multimodal model series, builds on its predecessor’s ability to interpret images and text with

New multi-agent system built on Gemini 2.0 accelerates discovery, but human oversight remains critical. In a bid to accelerate scientific discovery, Google researchers have unveiled an AI "co-scientist" that autonomously generates biomedical hypotheses, debates their merits, and iteratively refines them—a process culminating in lab-validated findings, including
