turns out if you hire/allocate a bunch of HFT perf nerds to design your inference stack, you get incredible results!
"Based on this framework, we have achieved high-throughput, low-latency large-scale inference services for DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. Currently, the service throughput of a single cluster is 155 trillion tokens/day, and the overall revenue is $38 per card per hour (at off-peak pricing)" zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/2095560…

🤏🤏🤏 what is this, a model for ants?
A new frontier for on-device speech. We're open-sourcing Phonon, a suite of TTS models under 50m parameters, setting a new standard for naturalness and accuracy across languages, with the broadest inference support to date. Phonon-31m is available under Apache 2.0. gradium.ai/phonon🧵

HPSFcon is going to one of the best food cities in north america!! and if you're extra nice, the @Montreal account might even send you a little heart!!
You can share what you learned in 8 minutes. #HPSFcon 2027 is accepting lightning talks, along with sessions, panels, and posters. Proposals are due January 17. 🎤 Take the mic April 12-16 in Montréal! Explore the topics and start your proposal today: bit.ly/3VAd5FI

nested async RL is the thing that worries me the most for paper clip runaway. anyway:
Today we're releasing prime-rl v0.10.0 and verifiers v0.4.0 We added our new RL algorithm IPO as the default, tailored for async RL stability, as well as performance improvements and new model support

Replying to @PrimeIntellect
INTELLECT Policy Optimization (IPO) In async RL, trainer and inference never agree exactly on a token's probability. IcePop masks on the ratio, which misjudges both tails IPO masks on the probability difference instead

ok so interesting; per Bloomberg quoting Jim, a lot of interest came after they ran DeepSeek R1 back in Q2, but those models were already a year old? Haven't been watching if they've made progress on running more advanced models, maybe @davorVDR can comment?
congrats to friends still at tenstorrent! great to see them close series E, was a long time coming!

model matrix hasn't been marked updated since December 2025 which is a little strange... github.com/tenstorrent/tt-me… but they also haven't updated it to reflect since version .65, where as the latest tag is 0.8....

incomplete thought: There's a reasonable argument to be made that cost cutting open models is actually a net benefit for AI safety in that it drops the available profit margins of most frontier model development If that's the case, the economic hunger to reinvest at current...

In essence, if firms are capable of releasing (through government subsidy for geopolitical reasons) near frontier open weight models that cull the profit margins of frontier model providers, you see a natural deceleration in capital available to push frontier models forward. ...

if that happens, you extend the effective runway through scarcity of slowing down AI to allow for the finding of new, more effective interpretability and safety research. need more consideration. Also have the secondary/tertiary effects of limiting the dictum of certain firms
