Bytedance showcased an impressive state-of-the-art video generation model called Seedance 1.0 without releasing it, while Morph Labs announced Trinity, an autoformalization system for Lean. Huggingface Transformers deprecated Tensorflow/JAX support. Andrew Ng of DeepLearning.AI highlighted the rise of the GenAI Application Engineer role emphasizing skills in AI building blocks and AI-assisted coding tools like Codex and Claude Code. Engineering teams are increasingly testing API designs against LLMs for usability. Figure AI's CEO stressed speed as a key competitive advantage, and LangChain introduced the concept of Context Engineering for AI agents. Reinforcement learning on LLMs shows transformative potential, and the community values AI evals and data work. Sakana AI released Text-to-LoRA, a hypernetwork method for generating task-specific LoRA adapters from natural language, enabling efficient model customization. The video generation race heats up with Bytedance's Seed-based model praised for quality, challenging American labs, alongside models like Kling 2.1 and Veo 3.

Meta released Apollo, a new family of state-of-the-art video-language models available in 1B, 3B, and 7B sizes, featuring "Scaling Consistency" for efficient scaling and introducing ApolloBench, which speeds up video understanding evaluation by 41× across five temporal perception categories. Google Deepmind launched Veo 2, a 4K video generation model with improved physics and camera control, alongside an enhanced Imagen 3 image model. OpenAI globally rolled out ChatGPT search with advanced voice and map features and discussed a potential $2,000/month "ChatGPT Max" tier. Research highlights include achieving Llama 70B performance using Llama 3B via test-time compute scaling and expanding Command R7B language support from 10 to 23 languages. Industry updates feature Figure AI delivering humanoid robots commercially and Klarna reducing workforce through AI. Notion integrated Cohere Rerank for better search. Studies reveal LLMs can recognize their own writing style and show self-preference bias. Discussions note video processing progress outpacing text due to better signal-per-compute and data evaluation.
