In this post, we show how Exowatt used Amazon SageMaker AI serverless model customization to build a repeatable AI pipeline that produces task-specific fine-tuned models for two deployment targets, edge and cloud, achieving higher accuracy than frontier models at up to 49x lower cost.
Mirendil released Fern 0.1, its first model, pretrained from scratch with a 10M-token context window. It targets agentic AI R&D work, scores 100% on RULER single needle at 10M, but trails frontier models on agentic coding.

Old benchmarks approach perfect scores, yet new benchmarks consistently fall short in real-world performance. As large-model evaluation itself has become a business, companies are shifting their selection criteria from ranking-based assessments to cost‑benefit analyses.
Nace AI has released Drex for Search, bringing its Drex decision models to document search for AI agents. Nace reports 92.05% on BrowseComp-Plus with 12.6 search calls, and fewer agent turns on OfficeQA Pro.

Author | Yu Hang Yuan Editor | Jing Yu On the morning of October 23, Kimi officially posted a 24-second video on X and its Video Account. The scene shows a retro‑style vintage computer, with Kimi Code running on the screen and lines of Three.js code being typed into the terminal, generating a complex 3D scene. Keen-eyed netizens quickly spotted the answer in the model bar at the top left: “Model: Kimi K3.1.” Kimi’s official teaser video for K3.1 | Image source: X @Kimi_Moonshot Using an antiquated machine to run some of today’s most cutting‑edge 3D code—this stark contrast itself conveys what Moonshot AI is trying to say. A dozen hours later, just after midnight on October 24, right on Programmer’s Day, Kimi K3.1 Pro officially launched, accompanied by a Highspeed version that’s two to three times faster. The company promises that the full model weights will be released before November 4. More than three months have passed since the previous generation, K3, was unveiled. In those three months, Moonshot AI has experienced more than most companies see in an entire year. 01 “More for the same price”—what’s new in 0.1? First, let’s clarify what K3.1 Pro is. It isn’t an entirely new model. Moonshot AI explicitly states that K3.1 Pro is a post‑training variant of K3; the underlying architecture remains unchanged—still a hybrid expert architecture with 2.8 trillion total parameters and 104 billion activation parameters, still featuring a 1 million‑token context window, and still natively supporting image and video inputs. What has changed is the post‑training phase. According to the company, they’ve invested “significantly increased post‑training compute power,” conducting large‑scale joint reinforcement learning across hundreds of downstream tasks. To support this, they completely reengineered the underlying infrastructure—including the reinforcement learning framework, sandbox environment, and long‑context reasoning capabilities. In essence, the same brain has been retrained from scratch on how to perform its tasks. The results are reflected in benchmark scores. On Terminal‑Bench 4.0, which evaluates coding agents, K3.1 Pro achieved 65.7%, surpassing GPT‑6 Astra’s 58.2% and falling short of Claude Opus’s 66.4% by less than one percentage point. As for the previous generation, K3…
arXiv:2610.32114v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: One approach to accelerating progress on AI alignment is to automate parts of alignment research itself. Doing so requires systems that can perform reliably on hard-to-supervise research tasks, including identifying flaws in research proposals and evaluating whether a proposed experiment supports its intended claim. To evaluate this capability, we introduce Tampered ML, a benchmark of 1,858 item-pairs, each consisting of an experiment proposal reconstructed from a published machine learning paper and a minimally edited counterfactual that introduces a targeted methodological flaw. Models must identify the more methodologically sound proposal in both presentation orders. A human validation study on a stratified sample estimates that 86% of ite
arXiv:2610.32115v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) is a powerful paradigm for scaling Neural Machine Translation (NMT) and managing language heterogeneity. However, practical limitations hinder its deployment on resource-constrained devices: the entire expert pool must remain in memory, and the per-token compute budget is statically fixed during training by rigid top-k routing. We introduce EDWARD-NMT (Elastic Dimensions With Adaptive Routing and Dual-consistency for NMT), a novel MoE encoder-decoder architecture designed for a train once, deploy anywhere paradigm that exposes a family of deployable sub-networks at inference time. EDWARD-NMT integrates three key innovations: (i) Matryoshka-style elastic dimensions to flexibly reduce the memory footprint; (ii) a
