OpenAI released GPT-4.5 as a research preview, highlighting its deep world knowledge, improved understanding of user intent, and a 128,000 token context window. It is noted for excelling in writing, creative tasks, image understanding, and data extraction but is not a reasoning model. Microsoft unveiled Phi-4 Multimodal and Phi-4 Mini, open-source models integrating text, vision, and speech/audio, with strong performance in math and coding tasks. Cohere released Command R7B Arabic, an open-weights model optimized for Arabic language capabilities targeting enterprises in the MENA region. The community is exploring the impact of larger models on creative writing, intent understanding, and world knowledge, with GPT-4.5 expected to be a basis for GPT-5.
OpenAI Voice Mode Can See Now - After Gemini Does

OpenAI launched Realtime Video shortly after Gemini, which led to less impact due to Gemini's earlier arrival with lower cost and fewer rate limits. Google DeepMind released Gemini 2.0 Flash featuring enhanced multimodal capabilities and real-time streaming. Anthropic introduced Clio, a system analyzing real-world usage of Claude models. Together Computing acquired CodeSandbox to launch a code interpreter tool. Discussions highlighted Meta's Llama 3.3-70B for its advanced roleplay and prompt handling abilities, outperforming models like Mistral Large and GPT-4o in expressiveness and censorship. The AI community also engaged in humorous takes on AI outages and model competition, with ChatGPT adding a Santa mode for holiday interactions. "Anthropic is capturing the developer ecosystem, Gemini has AI enthusiast mindshare, ChatGPT reigns over AI dabblers" was a noted observation from the community.

Anthropic released a team plan and iOS app about 4 months after OpenAI. The Command-R 35B model excels at creative writing, outperforming larger models like Goliath-120 and Miqu-120. The Llama-3 8B model now supports a 1 million token context window, improving long-context understanding with minimal training on a single 8xA800 GPU machine. TensorRT-LLM benchmarks show it is 30-70% faster than llama.cpp on consumer hardware. A benchmark suggests GPT2-Chat may have better reasoning than GPT-4-Turbo, though results are debated. Demos include a self-learning Llama-3 voice agent running locally on Jetson Orin and a Self-Learning Large Action Model (LAM). Amazon CodeWhisperer was renamed to Q Developer, expanding its generative AI assistant capabilities. Apple plans an AI-enabled Safari browser with an on-device LLM in iOS 18 and macOS 15. Big Tech dominates AI lobbying in Washington, while major U.S. newspapers sued OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement. DeepMind's AlphaZero became the greatest chess player in 9 hours, and their Naturalized Execution Tuning (NExT) method improves LLM code reasoning by 14-26%. Stable Diffusion is used for diverse image generation applications.
