Moonshot AI's latest open-weight model, Kimi K3, is now available on Databricks through Unity AI Gateway. @Kimi_Moonshot Run Kimi K3 where your data already lives - governed, secure, and ready for custom AI apps and agents built with the data in your Lakehouse. Unity AI Gateway lets you deploy Kimi K3 with enterprise-grade access controls. Govern every call, monitor performance, and scale securely across your AI apps. Test Kimi K3 alongside other frontier models without changing your application code. The open-weight frontier just arrived on Databricks. Try it today. https://www.databricks.com/blog/kimi-k3-moonshot-ai-now-available-databricks-through-unity-ai-gateway

Releasing weights indiscriminately isn't safe. Neither is keeping capable models inside a few labs. We think there's a path between them. We haven't mapped all of it. Our new post covers the part we can see: how we assessed Inkling, and why access should widen in stages. https://thinkingmachines.ai/blog/a-safe-path-to-open-weights

Today, we are releasing Inkling-Small. Inkling-Small achieves comparable performance to Inkling at a quarter of its size. It features 276B total parameters, 12B active. We are making the full weights available. https://thinkingmachines.ai/news/inkling-small/ Fine-tune it on Tinker today, or chat with it in text, image, and audio on Tinker Playground.

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter. AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models. https://images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-Weights-and-American-AI-Leadership.pdf

Today, we are introducing Inkling. Inkling reasons efficiently across text, image, and audio modalities. We are making the full weights available. https://thinkingmachines.ai/news/introducing-inkling/ Available today for fine-tuning on Tinker. Play with it in the Inkling Playground. 🧵

Thinking Machines Lab exists to empower humanity through advancing collaborative general intelligence. We're building multimodal AI that works with how you naturally interact with the world - through conversation, through sight, through the messy way we collaborate. We're excited that in the next couple months we’ll be able to share our first product, which will include a significant open source component and be useful for researchers and startups developing custom models. Soon, we’ll also share our best science to help the research community better understand frontier AI systems. To accelerate our progress, we’re happy to confirm that we’ve raised $2B led by a16z with participation from NVIDIA, Accel, ServiceNow, CISCO, AMD, Jane Street and more who share our mission. We’re always looking for extraordinary talent that learns by doing, turning research into useful things. We believe AI should serve as an extension of individual agency and, in the spirit of freedom, be distributed as widely and equitably as possible.  We hope this vision resonates with those who share our commitment to advancing the field. If so, join us. https://thinkingmachines.paperform.co/
