vLLM announced support for NVIDIA Nemotron Nano 2, featuring a hybrid Transformer–Mamba design and tunable "thinking budget" enabling up to 6× faster token generation. Mistral AI Studio launched a production platform for agents with deep observability. Baseten reported high throughput (650 TPS) for GPT-OSS 120B on NVIDIA hardware. Hugging Face InspectAI added inference provider integration for cross-provider evaluation. Thinking Machines Tinker abstracts distributed fine-tuning for open-weight LLMs like Qwen3 and Llama 3. In China, MiniMax M2 shows competitive performance with top models and is optimized for agents and coding, while Zhipu GLM-4.6-Air focuses on reliability and scaling for coding tasks. Rumors suggest Gemini 2.5 Flash may be a >500B parameter MoE model, and a possible GPT-5.1 mini reference appeared. Outside LLMs, Tahoe-x1 (3B) foundation model achieved SOTA in cancer cell biology benchmarks. Research from Stanford introduces a method to detect model provenance via training-order "palimpsest" with strong statistical guarantees.

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.
