OpenAI launched Codex, a cloud-based software engineering agent powered by codex-1 (an optimized version of OpenAI o3) available in research preview for Pro, Enterprise, and Team ChatGPT users, featuring parallel task execution like refactoring and bug fixing. The Codex CLI was enhanced with quick sign-in and a new low-latency model, codex-mini. Gemma 3 is highlighted as the best open model runnable on a single GPU. Runway released the Gen-4 References API for style transfer in generation. Salesforce introduced BLIP3-o, a unified multimodal model family using diffusion transformers for CLIP image features. The Qwen 2.5 models (1.5B and 3B versions) were integrated into the PocketPal app with various chat templates. Marigold IID, a new state-of-the-art open-source depth estimation model, was released.
In research, DeepSeek shared insights on scaling and hardware for DeepSeek-V3. Google unveiled LightLab, a diffusion-based light source control in images. Google DeepMind's AlphaEvolve uses Gemini 2.0 to discover new math and reduce costs without reinforcement learning. Omni-R1 studied audio's role in fine-tuning audio LLMs. Qwen proposed a parallel scaling law inspired by classifier-free guidance. Salesforce released Lumina-Next on the Qwen base, outperforming Janus-Pro. A study found LLM performance degrades in multi-turn conversations due to unreliability. J1 is incentivizing LLM-as-a-Judge thinking via reinforcement learning. A new Qwen study correlates question and strategy similarity to predict reasoning strategies.

Rhymes AI released Aria, a new 25.3B parameter multimodal MoE model supporting text, code, image, and video with a 64k token context window and Apache-2.0 license. OpenAI's o1-preview and o1-mini models show consistent improvement over Anthropic and Google Gemini 1.5 Pro/Flash on long context RAG benchmarks up to 128k tokens, while Google Gemini 1.5 models excel at extreme context lengths up to 2 million tokens. Meta AI expanded rollout to 21 countries with new language support but remains unavailable in the EU. The one-year anniversary of SWE-bench benchmark for software engineering tasks was celebrated, alongside the introduction of SWE-bench Multimodal. New AI tools include OxyCopilot by Oxylabs for web scraping, Taipy for Python-based production apps, and Latitude for prompt engineering. Industry insights highlight changing AI funding dynamics and OpenAI's strategic focus on consumer products like ChatGPT. "all recaps done by Claude 3.5 Sonnet, best of 4 runs."

Google launched Gemini Live on Android for Gemini Advanced subscribers during the Pixel 9 event, featuring integrations with Google Workspace apps and other Google services. The rollout began on 8/12/2024, with iOS support planned. Anthropic released Genie, an AI software engineering system achieving a 57% improvement on SWE-Bench. TII introduced Falcon Mamba, a 7B attention-free open-access model scalable to long sequences. Benchmarking showed that longer context lengths do not always improve Retrieval-Augmented Generation. Supabase launched an AI-powered Postgres service dubbed the "ChatGPT of databases," fully open source. Perplexity AI partnered with Polymarket to integrate real-time probability predictions into search results. A tutorial demonstrated a multimodal recipe recommender using Qdrant, LlamaIndex, and Gemini. An OpenAI engineer shared success tips emphasizing debugging and hard work. The connection between matrices and graphs in linear algebra was highlighted for insights into nonnegative matrices and strongly connected components. Keras 3.5.0 was released with Hugging Face Hub integration for model saving and loading.

DeepMind announces SIMA, a generalist AI agent capable of following natural language instructions across diverse 3D environments and video games, advancing embodied AI agents. Anthropic releases Claude 3 Haiku, their fastest and most affordable model, now available via API and Perplexity. New research explores language model scaling laws, over-training, and introduces Branch-Train-MiX (BTX) for efficient training of large language models using mixture-of-experts. Predictions suggest software engineering jobs will grow to 30-35 million in five years, aided by AI coding assistants like Cohere's Command-R focusing on retrieval-augmented generation and tool use. The EU AI Act is approved, mandating transparency in training data for GPAI systems. Privacy-preserving in-context learning with differential privacy is highlighted as promising work. Memes humorously discuss AI software engineers and notable figures like Andrej Karpathy.
