AILiquid AI's d1 model is live on Vercel AI Gateway, according to Vercel's changelog. The model supports vision inputs for classifying, routing, and scoring decisions.

AIVercel says Liquid AI's d1 model is live on AI Gateway under the identifier liquid/d1. The model supports vision inputs for classifying, routing, and scoring decisions.

AITinker adds GLM-5.3-Flash and DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash, both of which natively accept image inputs and use efficient attention architecture. GLM-5.3-Flash costs 4-5 times less on Tinker than GLM-5.3. Long-context options for Qwen3.5-4B and Qwen3.6-35B-A3B are also live.

AIStepFun's Step 5 Preview, a 600B-total, 27B-active MoE model with 1M context and vision, is free to try on Nous Portal for one week. Nous Research says it scored 33.89 on the Hermes Index, the same score as GPT-6 Luna.

AICloudflare has published a new model called clef-omni on Hugging Face, according to a post from Julien Chaumond, who owns the account. The post links to the model page but gives no further details about its size, capabilities, or benchmarks.

AICloudflare releases Clef-omni, an open-weight decision model that accepts audio, video, image, and text input in a single API call. Clef-flash's price falls from $0.09 to $0.038 per M input tokens, while its hosted context window drops from 64k to 24k. Cloudflare also reports median latency reductions of 1.7 to 2.0 times for the Clef model on Workers AI.

AIaccording to a post from Kilo. The model has 600B parameters, with 27B active per token, and supports a 1M-token context and vision.

AIPerplexity Developers says its new cookbook builds a browser agent that sends a screenshot and questions to pplx-decider-v1.1-27b through the Decisions API, which accepts text and image inputs. The developer's code converts the returned probabilities into clicks, scrolls, and stops.

AIGoogle AI announces that SynthID.com is now available globally in English for verifying AI-generated images, video, and audio. The post also lists Nano Banana 2.1, EmbeddingGemma 2, Gemma 4 with BOTANIC-1, a Gemini business agent, and Guided Vision in Gemini Live.

AITencent has open-sourced Youtu-Parsing-Omni, a 5B-parameter omni-modal model that outputs a single structured JSON covering layout, text, tables, formulas, ASR, OCR, and video segments. It scores 96.96 Overall on OmniDocBench, the highest among the compared models, and ships with weights on Hugging Face, a vLLM plugin, and inference examples.

AIOdyssey announced the Odyssey-3 series of foundation world models, with Odyssey-3 Pro scoring 66.1 on the Physics-IQ Verified video-to-video benchmark, the highest recorded on that leaderboard. The series includes a standard version balancing physical accuracy and generation cost, and a Pro version with stronger physics prediction. The preview supports first-person and third-person navigation and lets users move the camera, take actions, or trigger events while the model predicts environmental changes in real time.

AIByteDance's Doubao Work has added an infinite creation canvas that places source materials, design options and finished output on one page, wired to the new Seedream 5.0 Flash image model. The update also adds Doubao 2.1 Lite, a lighter model aimed at everyday office tasks such as documents, spreadsheets and slide decks, with faster responses and lower credit consumption. The announcement included no benchmark results for either model.

AIGoogle Cloud introduced the Gemini agent, a general office agent that can search, write emails, build slides, analyze data, run code, and coordinate sub-agents. It can take on an enterprise identity with email, calendar, and account, and it selects underlying models automatically, including Anthropic's Claude. The article presents this alongside OpenAI's Dots and Meta's Muse as competing office and personal agents.

AIAt the Apsara Conference, Alibaba's Qwen team outlined a roadmap of Qwen4 followed by Qwen4.5 and Qwen5, aiming for 5T to 10T parameters. The article notes that Qwen3.8 reached 2.4T parameters and that Qwen3.8-Flash activates 6B parameters per inference while cutting training cost to one-ninth. It also describes Qwen3.8-Max running model-driven experiments in chip design and inference optimization, and multimodal updates including a video model slated for November.

AIOpenAI is rolling out Intelligent UI in ChatGPT, which integrates interactive visuals such as tappable buttons, charts, editable graphs, and custom calculators into conversations. The feature launches with GPT-6 for Pro, Plus, Business, and Enterprise users, arrives Thursday for free and Go tiers, and lets users reduce how many visuals appear.

AIOpenAI is rolling out Intelligent UI in ChatGPT, letting answers include diagrams, charts, forms, tappable buttons, and generated tools. The feature runs on GPT-6, which is rolling out to Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users now and to Go and free tiers on Thursday, with Sol and Luna models assigned by tier.

AIXiaomi released the MiMo-V2.5-TTS Series, three speech synthesis models for stock voices, voice design, and voice cloning. The models accept natural-language style instructions and inline audio tags, and the source says the three models are free of charge for a limited time on the Xiaomi MiMo API platform. Xiaomi also open-sourced integration Skills for agent applications on GitHub.

Why it matters: The release shows how a TTS family adds style instructions, inline audio tags, and voice design or cloning to speech synthesis, which matters for agent and creative workflows.

AIAnthropic has launched Claude Motion in beta, which lets users ask Claude to turn their ideas into animated explainers. The same beta release also includes Claude Dashboards, which turns data into live dashboards.

AIDevelopers are pairing frontier AI models with NVIDIA Omniverse libraries to turn simulation ideas into working applications, from humanoid warehouse simulators to autonomous-driving test environments. In the examples, developers direct AI agents through natural-language instructions and review results, while Omniverse provides GPU-accelerated physics, rendering and sensor simulation. One experiment reported a simulated Unitree G1 humanoid clearing a hurdle in 64 of 100 trials.

AIHospitals, academic centers, medtech firms, and pharma companies all face the same obstacle: imaging data is locked in clinical systems and hard to share. The EXAM study across 20 institutions showed federated learning, which shares model weights rather than patient data, improved AUC by 16% on average. Collaboration remains difficult due to scanner and protocol heterogeneity, privacy governance, and the lack of a common data substrate.

AIAnthropic launched two beta features for Claude: Dashboards, which turns connected data sources like BigQuery, Databricks, Snowflake, or Salesforce into auto-updating live dashboards from text prompts, and Motion, which creates animated explainer videos from text, diagrams, and images. Dashboards is available to paid users and Motion to Team and Enterprise plans, while Docs, Slides, and Design leave beta and work across all plans, including free accounts.

AIClaude Docs, Slides, and Design are out of beta and available on every plan, including Free, starting today. The source also says a team and Claude can edit the same doc, deck, or design together.

AIGoogle Gemma has published a developer guide for EmbeddingGemma 2, with code snippets to help developers start searching beyond text. The post directs readers to the full guide on the Google Developers Blog.

AINous Research says Hermes Agent is now available on the new ASUS ProArt RTX Spark PCs, with MuseTree and ComfyUI integrations and local model support on up to 128 GB of unified memory. The post presents it as a creative stack that runs entirely on the user's own machine.
