ChatGPT, Sora, and the OpenAI API experienced a >5 hour outage but are now restored. Updates to vLLM enable DeepSeek-V3 to run with enhanced parallelism and CPU offloading, improving model deployment flexibility. Discussions on gradient descent in top-k routing MoE and adoption of FP8 precision focus on training efficiency and memory optimization. AIDE, an AI voice medical assistant by Team Therasync, leverages Qdrant, OpenAI, and Twilio. DeepSeek-Engineer offers AI-powered coding assistance with structured outputs. LlamaIndex integrates LlamaCloud and ElevenLabs for large-scale document processing and voice interaction. Insights on version control with ghstack and advocacy for linear decay learning rate schedules highlight best practices in AI development. Experts predict smaller, tighter models, true multimodal models, and on-device AI in 2025. Proposals for planetary-scale federated learning and community AGI moonshots emphasize future AI directions. Discussions on agentic systems, multi-agent workflows, and deliberative alignment through chain of thought reasoning underscore AI safety and alignment efforts.
OpenAI Realtime API and other Dev Day Goodies

OpenAI launched the gpt-4o-realtime-preview Realtime API featuring text and audio token processing with pricing details and future plans including vision and video support. The API supports voice activity detection modes, function calling, and ephemeral sessions with auto-truncation for context limits. Partnerships with LiveKit, Agora, and Twilio enhance audio components and AI virtual agent voice calls. Additionally, OpenAI introduced vision fine-tuning with only 100 examples improving mapping accuracy for Grab and RPA success for Automat. Model distillation and prompt caching features were also announced, including free eval inference for users opting to share data.

The upcoming AI Engineer World's Fair in San Francisco from June 25-27 will feature a significantly expanded format with booths, talks, and workshops from top model labs like OpenAI, DeepMind, Anthropic, Mistral, Cohere, HuggingFace, and Character.ai. It includes participation from Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, Google Vertex, and major companies such as Nvidia, Salesforce, Mastercard, Palo Alto Networks, and more. The event covers 9 tracks including RAG, multimodality, evals/ops, open models, code generation, GPUs, agents, AI in Fortune 500, and a new AI leadership track. Additionally, Anthropic shared interpretability research on Claude 3 Sonnet, revealing millions of interpretable features that can be steered to modify model behavior, including safety-relevant features related to bias and unsafe content, though more research is needed for practical applications. The event offers a discount code for AI News readers.
