Large Language Model – The TechBriefs

Sakana AI’s Error Diffusion Trains Dale-Compliant Dual-Stream Networks, Reaching 96.7% MNIST and 61.7% CIFAR-10 Without Backpropagation

Backpropagation dominates deep learning, yet it uses a mechanism the brain likely cannot. Specifically, the backward pass needs exact transposes […]

This week, Zyphra released ZUNA1.1 under the Apache 2.0 license. The EEG foundation model reconstructs, denoises, and upsamples data across […]

Embedding models decide which passages an agent ever sees. NVIDIA released Nemotron 3 Embed model to work on that layer. […]

Moonshot AI just released Kimi K3. It is a 2.8-trillion-parameter model with native vision and a 1-million-token context window. Moonshot […]

Thinking Machines Lab just released Inkling, their first model trained from scratch, weights are open, fine-tunable on Tinker. The lab […]

A German research consortium has published the pretraining report for Soofi S 30B-A3B. It is an open base model for […]

PrismML just released Bonsai 27B. It is a low-bit representation of Qwen3.6-27B, not a new pretrain. The architecture is unchanged. […]

Hayden Bleasel, an expert developer from OpenAI, released Blume, an open-source documentation framework. Blume shipped to npm as version 1.0.3 […]

Anthropic just shipped Claude Sonnet 5. They call it its most agentic Sonnet model yet. It plans, drives browsers and […]

Agentic LLMs often fail the same way, again and again. A Stanford research team traced this to missing, reusable capabilities. […]
