Alibaba announced the release of Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct, an open agentic code model with 480B parameters and 256K context length, praised for rapid development and strong coding performance. Benchmark claims of 41.8% on ARC-AGI-1 faced skepticism from Franois Chollet and others due to reproducibility issues. The model quickly integrated into ecosystems like vLLM, Dynamic GGUFs, and OpenRouterAI. The White House unveiled a new AI Action Plan emphasizing Innovation, Infrastructure, and International Diplomacy, linking AI leadership to national security and prioritizing compute access for the Department of Defense. The plan sparked debate on open vs. closed-source AI, with calls from Clement Delangue to embrace open science to maintain US AI competitiveness.

Grok Beta surpasses Llama 3.1 70B in intelligence but is less competitive due to its pricing at $5/1M input tokens and $15/1M output tokens. Defense Llama, developed with Meta AI and Scale AI, targets American national security applications. SWE-Kit, an open-source framework, supports building customizable AI software engineers compatible with Llama 3, ChatGPT, and Claude. LangChainAI and Weights & Biases integrate to improve retrievers and reduce hallucinations in RAG applications using Gemini. Perplexity AI offers enhanced election tracking tools for the 2024 elections, including live state results and support for Claude 3.5 Haiku. AI Talk launched featuring discussions on Chinese AI labs with guests from Qwen. Memes highlight Elon Musk and humorous AI coding mishaps.
