It finally happened
America has entered the frontier open weights model competition. We aren't rolling over to China
Reflection announced Beam, a 501B parameter open weights model that is comparable to GLM 5.2, Qwen 3.8, and Opus 4.8
Yes, Opus 4.8 on your desk
You will need a decent sized machine for this. Probably the Mac Studio 512gb
But if you listened to me back in January when I warned you days like today were going to come, then you're all set
I stand by Opus 4.5 being the most important model release in history. We will now have a model BETTER than that on our desks
If you haven't gotten into local AI yet, it's officially time to do it
Take any computer you have, talk to an AI agent, ask which models you can run
Never been more important to just start
Introducing Beam: a highly efficient agentic open model with 501B total parameters and 23B active.
- Frontier reasoning efficiency
- Advances the Western open frontier on coding & agentic tasks
- Trained end-to-end from scratch
Full weights release this month.

On change le moteur, pas la voiture.
Le meilleur modèle d'IA d'aujourd'hui sera dépassé demain. La vraie question n'est pas lequel choisir, mais comment ne pas en dépendre.

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.

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces):
I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept):
Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

Here is Google's official announcement regarding their collaboration with Apple.
This is likely a major setback for Google. Just 1.5 years ago, OpenAI had announced a collaboration with Apple.
Google's triumphant march continues.
Joint Statement: Apple and Google have entered into a multi-year collaboration under which the next generation of Apple Foundation Models will be based on Google's Gemini models and cloud technology. These models will help power future Apple Intelligence features, including a more personalized Siri coming this year.
After careful evaluation, Apple determined that Google's Al technology provides the most capable foundation for Apple Foundation Models and is excited about the innovative new experiences it will unlock for Apple users. Apple Intelligence will continue to run on Apple devices and Private Cloud Compute, while maintaining Apple's industry-leading privacy standards.

Comment se répartissent les revenus de Google ? Et comment sont-ils réattribués ? une remarquable dataviz, très parlante qui montre
- que Google n'a pas réussi à sortir des revenus publicitaires. Il est surprenant de voir à quel point les activités sur lesquels des montants considérables ont été investis ne générent qu'une faible proportion du revenu,
- Que la publicité continu à croitre, renforçant ainsi la position déjà ultra-dominante d'un tel acteur,
- Que la taxation de Google a sensiblement remonté (auparavant de l'ordre de 4%, désormais de 19%)
- Que la R&D continue à croitre (de mémoire c'était 30B annuels il y a deux ans).
