Meet S1-mini: Superwhisper’s 462 MB Open-Weights Text Normalizer That Turns Raw ASR Transcripts Into Clean Written Text

Superwhisper has released the S1 family of models: S1-Voice, S1-Language, and S1-mini. S1-Voice is a cloud speech-to-text model, and S1-Language is a cloud instruction-following model for cleanup and formatting. The one that is quite interesting outside the app is S1-mini, released with open weights on Hugging Face. S1-mini is a 0.6B text normalizer, not a […]

Liquid AI Releases LFM2.5-DSpark Draft Models That Deliver Up to 3.18x Faster Decoding Without Changing Model Outputs

Liquid AI has released DSpark draft model checkpoints for three models in its LFM2.5 family: LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct, LFM2.5-2.6B, and LFM2.5-8B-A1B. Each drafter adds a speculative decoding path to an existing target model. A roughly 300M-parameter draft proposes a block of nine candidate tokens, and the target model verifies the whole block in a single forward pass.

Cartesia Ships Sonic-3.6: A Streaming TTS Model That Now Leads Both Artificial Analysis Speech Arenas

Cartesia has released Sonic-3.6, the newest version of its real-time text-to-speech model. It arrives roughly three months after Sonic-3.5. The new change is naturalness, and this one is independently checkable. Sonic 3.6 now holds #1 on both Artificial Analysis speech leaderboards — 1,283 Elo on the Provider Voice board and 1,123 on the Controlled Voice

Nous Research Ships Bot Mode for Hermes Agent, Turning Agent Profiles Into a Roster of Named Bots

Nous Research has shipped Bot Mode for Hermes Agent, its MIT-licensed open source agent. Bot Mode replaces the single-agent session list with a roster of named bots. Each bot is a real Hermes profile, with its own chat, memory, skills, and pinned model. Bots message each other through a persistent Agent Inbox and hand work

MiniMax Releases MiniMax-Music3: An Open-Weights Music Model Generating Complete Five-Minute Songs From Lyrics and a Structured Caption

MiniMax released MiniMax-Music3, an open-weights text-to-music model. The model takes two separate inputs: lyrics carrying section tags, and a detailed music description. It returns a complete song of up to five minutes in a single generation, as 32 kHz, 16-bit stereo WAV. The architecture pairs a Hybrid-LM, an 8B Global LLM with a 0.6B Local

DeepSeek AI Releases DeepSeek Harness in Developer Preview: An MIT-Licensed Agent Harness Where Everything is a Plugin

DeepSeek released DeepSeek Harness v0.1 in developer preview and published the full source code under the MIT license. The project ships as dsh at deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness. A harness is the layer between a model and the environment it acts in — the tools, files, sandboxes, and control loop that let an agent keep working. DeepSeek frames

Fine-Tuning Tool-Calling LLMs: A Complete Guide Using XYZ-Aquila-SFT and Qwen3

In this tutorial, we implement an end-to-end supervised fine-tuning pipeline for the XYZ-Aquila-SFT dataset, Hugging Face Transformers, PyTorch, and PEFT. We stream and inspect the dataset, parse multi-turn tool-use trajectories, extract structured tool calls, analyze corpus characteristics, and preserve embedded reasoning and observation patterns. We then convert tool schemas between message-embedded and structured formats, render

Z.ai Ships GLM-5.3 Without Retraining the Base Model: Better at Complex Coding and Long-Horizon Tasks

Z.ai just released GLM-5.3. GLM-5.3 runs on the same 743B base model as GLM-5.2. Every reported gain comes from scaled post-training: more task environments, more environment types, longer training. The results land in two places. Coding jumps most on the longest-horizon benchmarks, with Terminal-Bench 3.0 moving from 4.6 to 28.3. Cybersecurity moved further than Z.ai

Meet Needle 2: An Open 45M-Parameter Tool-Calling Model That Ships as a 14MB Binary and Runs a Full Session in 28MB of RAM

Cactus Compute has released Needle 2, an open 45M-parameter model for tool calling, device use, and structured extraction. The entire model ships as a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in about 28MB of RAM. Weights are trained and deployed at CQ2-bit using Cactus Quants, and the model is sealed inside the company’s

Google AI Just Released Gemini 3.7 Flash: A Coding and Agent Model at $0.75/1M Input Tokens

Google has released Gemini 3.7 Flash, the newest model in its Flash tier, three weeks after Gemini 3.6 Flash. The model card describes it as a refinement of 3.6 Flash with algorithmic improvements to the core reasoning foundation — not a new pretraining run. It accepts text, images, audio, and video across a 1M-token context
