OpenAI is preparing to release a highly capable open language model, their first since GPT-2, with a focus on reasoning and community feedback, as shared by @kevinweil and @sama. DeepSeek V3 0324 has achieved the #5 spot on the Arena leaderboard, becoming the top open model with an MIT license and cost advantages. Gemini 2.5 Pro is noted for outperforming models like Claude 3.7 Sonnet in coding tasks, with upcoming pricing and improvements expected soon. New startups like Sophont are building open multimodal foundation models for healthcare. Significant fundraises include Cursor closing $625M at a $9.6B valuation and Etched raising $85M at $1.5B. Innovations in AI infrastructure include SkyPilot's cost-efficient cloud provisioning and the launch of AgentEvals, an open-source package for evaluating AI agents. Discussions on smartphone privacy highlight iPhone's stronger user defense compared to Android.

OpenAI announced the new GPT-4o model with enhanced instruction-following, complex problem-solving, and native image generation capabilities. The model shows improved performance in math, coding, and creativity, with features like transparent background image generation. Discussions around content filtering and policy for image generation emphasize balancing creative freedom and harm prevention. DeepSeek V3-0324 APIs, available on Hugging Face and powered by SambaNovaAI, outperform benchmarks and models like Gemini 2.0 Pro and Claude 3.7 Sonnet. Gemini 2.5 Pro is recommended for coding, and Gemini 3 can be deployed easily on Google Cloud Vertex AI via the new Model Garden SDK. The Gemma 3 Technical Report has been released on arXiv.
OpenAI adopts MCP

OpenAI announced support for MCP, a significant technical update. Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro leads benchmarks with top scores in MMLU-Pro (86%), GPQA Diamond (83%), and AIME 2024 (88%), featuring a 1 million token context window and multimodal inputs. Alibaba's Qwen 2.5 Omni 7B was released as a fully multimodal, interactive, open-source model with a novel "thinker-talker" architecture supporting voice and video chat. DeepSeek V3-0324 outperforms its predecessor on multiple benchmarks. Research on reasoning features in large language models using sparse autoencoders was highlighted, alongside a study on scaling laws of synthetic data showing performance plateaus near 300B tokens. Discussions also covered the fastest output speeds of Gemini models and concerns about over-reliance on benchmarks for intelligence measurement. Swyx will curate the Data Council AI Engineering Track in April.

Reve, a new composite AI model from former Adobe and Stability alums Christian Cantrell, Taesung Park, and Michaël Gharbi, has emerged as the top-rated image generation model, surpassing previous state-of-the-art models like Recraft and Ideogram in text rendering and typography. The team emphasizes "enhancing visual generative models with logic" and "understanding user intent with advanced language capabilities" to iteratively amend visuals based on natural language input. Additionally, DeepSeek-V3-0324 and Alibaba's Qwen2.5-VL-32B-Instruct models were released with notable performance improvements, including better vision task benchmarks and mathematical reasoning.
