Omar Khattab announced joining Databricks before his MIT professorship and outlined the roadmap for DSPy 2.5 and 3.0+, focusing on improving core components like LMs, signatures, optimizers, and assertions with features such as adopting LiteLLM to reduce code and enhance caching and streaming. The roadmap also includes developing more accurate, cost-effective optimizers, building tutorials, and enabling interactive optimization tracking. On AI Twitter, Google launched Gemini Live, a mobile conversational AI with voice and 10 voices, alongside Pixel Buds Pro 2 with a custom Tensor A1 chip. OpenAI updated ChatGPT-4o, reclaiming the top spot on LMSYS Arena. xAI released Grok-2 in beta, achieving SOTA in image generation with FLUX 1. Nous Research released open-source Hermes 3 models in 8B, 70B, and 405B sizes, with the 405B model achieving SOTA. Robotics updates include Astribot's humanoid robot and Apple's tabletop robot with Siri voice commands. Sakana AI introduced "The AI Scientist," an autonomous AI research system.
