Meta has poached top AI talent from OpenAI, including Alexandr Wang joining as Chief AI Officer to work towards superintelligence, signaling a strong push for the next Llama model. The AI job market shows polarization with high demand and compensation for top-tier talent, while credentials like strong GitHub projects gain importance. The WizardLM team moved from Microsoft to Tencent to develop open-source models like Hunyuan-A13B, highlighting shifts in China's AI industry. Rumors suggest OpenAI will release a new open-source model in July, potentially surpassing existing ChatGPT models. Baidu open-sourced multiple variants of its ERNIE 4.5 model series, featuring advanced techniques like 2-bit quantization, MoE router orthogonalization loss, and FP8 training, with models ranging from 0.3B to 424B parameters. Gemini 2.5 Pro returned to the free tier of the Gemini API, enabling developers to explore its features.

Anthropic's Claude 4 models (Opus 4, Sonnet 4) demonstrate strong coding abilities, with Sonnet 4 achieving 72.7% on SWE-bench and Opus 4 at 72.5%. Claude Sonnet 4 excels in codebase understanding and is considered SOTA on large codebases. Criticism arose over Anthropic's handling of ASL-3 security requirements. Demand for Claude 4 is high, with integration into IDEs and support from Cherry Studio and FastHTML. Google DeepMind introduced Gemini 2.5 Pro Deep Think and Gemma 3n, a mobile multimodal model reducing RAM usage by nearly 3x. Google's Imagen 4 Ultra ranks third in the Artificial Analysis Image Arena, available on Vertex AI Studio. Google also promoted Google Beam, an AI video model for immersive 3D experiences, and new text-to-speech models with multi-speaker support. The GAIA benchmark shows Claude 4 Opus and Sonnet leading in agentic performance.

Tencent's Hunyuan-Turbos has risen to #8 on the LMArena leaderboard, showing strong performance across major categories and significant improvement since February. The Qwen3 model family, especially the Qwen3 235B-A22B (Reasoning) model, is noted for its intelligence and efficient parameter usage. OpenAI introduced HealthBench, a new health evaluation benchmark developed with input from over 250 physicians, where models like o3, GPT-4.1 nano, and Grok 3 showed strong results. ByteDance released Seed1.5-VL, a vision-language model with a 532M-parameter vision encoder and a 20B active parameter MoE LLM, achieving state-of-the-art results on 38 public benchmarks. In vision-language, Kling 2.0 leads image-to-video generation, and Gemini 2.5 Pro excels in video understanding with advanced multimodal capabilities. Meta's Vision-Language-Action framework and updates on VLMs for 2025 were also highlighted.
