OpenAI announced their "12 Days of OpenAI" event with daily livestreams and potential releases including the O1 full model, Sora video model, and GPT-4.5. Google DeepMind released the GenCast weather model capable of 15-day forecasts in 8 minutes using TPU chips, and launched Genie 2, a model generating playable 3D worlds from single images. Leading vision researchers Lucas Beyer, Alexander Kolesnikov, and Xiaohua Zhai moved from DeepMind to OpenAI, which is opening a Zürich office. Criticism arose over OpenAI's strategy and model quality compared to Anthropic and Claude 3.5 Sonnet. On Reddit, a modified llama.cpp supports Nvidia's Llama-3_1-Nemotron-51B, matching performance of larger 70B models via NAS optimization.
