šŸ”„ NEW SOTA OPEN-SOURCE MODEL Today’s a big one for us at @Pokee_AI . We’re releasing PokeeResearch-7B, a new state-of-the-art deep-research agent that outperforms every other 7B model in its class. It’s fully open-source — weights inference code are now live on @huggingface, and built end-to-end using @vllm_project , @sgl_project , and @verl_project. Benchmarks, tools, pipelines — everything’s public. šŸ‘‡

GPT-5 is here—and Pokee AI is already integrated! We’ve already built it into Pokee AI to give you next-level performance right now. But Pokee AI is way more beyond GPT-5! At Pokee AI, we’ve built a full-scale productivity engine—not just with GPT‑5, but by intelligently orchestrating the entire AI model suite to automate tasks, optimize workflows, and deliver results directly across your favorite platforms: - Built-in integrations for your favorite tools: we deliver the results directly to your accounts in Google workspace, social media platforms(X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Youtube, Ticktok etc ), Notion, JIra etc. - Custom Workflows & Automation: based on your prompts, Pokee auto breakdown your task into steps and pick the best model for each step. - Reinforcement Learning–Powered Intelligence: Unlike LLM-only systems like GPT‑5, Pokee uses proprietary reinforcement learning to select tools and complete tasks—solving the execution problem, not just suggesting actions. šŸ”— Learn more and try it today: pokee.ai/?ref_code=x_pokee #ChatGPT #GPT5 #AiAgent #AGI

🧵 on surprising revelations from our study of specialized foundation models (FMs beyond vision/text): after evaluating dozens of scientific & time series FMs we found that most weren’t even competitive with simple supervised models, some with as little as 513 parameters. 1/n

Introducing Unified PDE Solvers (UPS), a step towards efficiently building foundation models for PDE solvers (arxiv.org/abs/2403.07187)! Starting from a pretrained LM, UPS tackles diverse spatiotemporal PDEs with SOTA accuracy, using ~20x less data and a single A6000! 🧵[1/x]

New blog post: how to make LLMs go fast! Want to understand how people are making LLMs go brrrrr? This post is a survey of lots of different LLM inference optimizations, ranging from "everyone uses this in prod" to "I cooked this up last week (but it seems to work)"

The EU AI Act negotiations ended. One contentious issue was the regulation of foundation models, particularly open source ones. Kudos to the French, German, and Italian governments for not giving up on open source models. Juicy part: "The legislation ultimately included restrictions for foundation models but gave broad exemptions to ā€œopen-source models,ā€ which are developed using code that’s freely available for developers to alter for their own products and tools. The move could benefit open-source AI companies in Europe that lobbied against the law, including France’s Mistral and Germany’s Aleph Alpha, as well as Meta, which released the open-source model LLaMA." washingtonpost.com/technolog…

Is training deep neural nets from scratch about to become obsolete? Recent research indicates that the answer might be yes. Here's why... šŸ“°: arxiv.org/abs/2302.05738 [1/5]

Super excited to share our work led by @JunhongShen1 on cross-modal fine-tuning! We show it's possible to adapt LLM to genomics, music, ECG, and tabular data with surprisingly strong results, often surpassing current SoTA. Check out the thread for more details!
Can we use LLMs to tackle genomics tasks? Vision transformers to solve PDEs? In new work led by @JunhongShen1, we consider the general problem of cross-modal fine-tuning and provide surprisingly optimistic answers to these questions. 1/N arxiv.org/abs/2302.05738
