Harvey secured a new $300M funding round. OuteTTS 0.3 1B & 500M text-to-speech models were released featuring zero-shot voice cloning, multilingual support (en, jp, ko, zh, fr, de), and emotion control, powered by OLMo-1B and Qwen 2.5 0.5B. The HOVER model, a 1.5M-parameter neural net for agile motor control, was introduced, leveraging human motion capture datasets and massively parallel reinforcement learning. kokoro.js enables running AI models locally in browsers with minimal dependencies. Meta AI awarded $200K LLM evaluation grants for projects on regional language understanding, complex reasoning, and interactive programming environments. Stability AI's Twitter account was hacked, prompting security warnings. Alibaba Qwen improved Process Reward Models (PRMs) for better mathematical reasoning using a consensus filtering mechanism. DeepSeek V3 uses pipeline parallelism to enhance distributed inference and long-context generation efficiency. Discussions on AI policy in legal frameworks and AI's role in democratizing education were highlighted. Lighthearted AI-related humor was also shared.
