Stanford paper reveals Claude 3.7 Sonnet memorized 95.8% of Harry Potter 1, highlighting copyright extraction risks compared to GPT-4.1. Google AI Studio sponsors TailwindCSS amid OSS funding debates. Google and Sundar Pichai launch Gmail Gemini 3 features including AI Overviews and natural-language search with user controls. Alibaba Qwen releases Qwen3-VL-Embedding and Qwen3-VL-Reranker, a multimodal, multilingual retrieval stack supporting text, images, and video with quantization and instruction customization, achieving strong benchmark results. Z.ai goes public on HKEX with GLM-4.7 leading the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v4.0, showing gains in reasoning, coding, and agentic use, with large-scale MoE architecture and MIT license. Falcon-H1R-7B from TII targets efficient reasoning in smaller models, scoring 16 on the Intelligence Index. AI21 Labs introduces Jamba2, a memory-efficient enterprise model with hybrid SSM-Transformer architecture and Apache 2.0 license, available via SaaS and Hugging Face. vLLM shows throughput improvements in inference and kernel engineering. "Embeddings should be multimodal by default," notes Justin Lin.

Anthropic announces a new CTO. Frontier coding agents see updates with Claude Sonnet 4.5 showing strong cybersecurity and polished UX but trailing GPT-5 Codex in coding capability. xAI Grok Code Fast claims higher edit success at lower cost. Google's Jules coding agent launches a programmable API with CI/CD integration. Qwen clarifies its model taxonomy and API tiers. Vision/LM Arena rankings show a tight competition among Claude Sonnet 4.5, Claude Opus 4.1, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and OpenAI's latest models. In video generation, Sora 2 Pro leads App Store rankings with rapid iteration and a new creator ecosystem; early tests show it answers GPQA-style questions at 55% accuracy versus GPT-5's 72%. Video Arena adds new models like Luma's Ray 3 and Kling 2.5 for benchmarking. Multi-modal video+audio generation model Ovi (Veo-3-like) is released. Retrieval models include ModernVBERT from MIT with efficient image-text retrieval capabilities. "Claude Sonnet 4.5 is basically the same as Opus 4.1 for coding" and "Jules is a programmable team member" highlight key insights.
Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Base: Towards Ultimate Training & Inference Efficiency

MoE (Mixture of Experts) models have become essential in frontier AI models, with Qwen3-Next pushing sparsity further by activating only 3.7% of parameters (3B out of 80B) using a hybrid architecture combining Gated DeltaNet and Gated Attention. This new design includes 512 total experts (10 routed + 1 shared), Zero-Centered RMSNorm for stability, and improved MoE router initialization, resulting in ~10× cheaper training and 10× faster inference compared to previous models. Alibaba's Qwen3-Next reportedly outperforms Gemini-2.5-Flash-Thinking and approaches the flagship 235B model's performance, with deployments on Hugging Face, Baseten, and native vLLM support for efficient inference.
