NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL is now available in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart

NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL, a 120B-parameter multimodal vision-language model, is now available in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. Deploy the NVFP4 or BF16 variant in a few steps, then run text, image, and video inference for document intelligence, computer-use agents, and multimodal agentic workloads.

Show HN: Record, branch, and compare command runs in stdlib-only Python

Hi, this is a package I developed for keeping track of short toy-model development cycles and explaining what changed between runs.The core idea: commands run through the package, and their declared parameters (or injected parameters with --substitute) and outcomes go into a dependency-free ledger stored in the project. Because that ledger lives in the project directory, it has worked well for passing context between different agents. I’ve also found some use for it in CI work.

SageMaker Inference now supports Multi-Instance GPU to maximize GPU utilization for model endpoints

Amazon SageMaker Inference now supports GPU partitioning with NVIDIA Multi-Instance GPU (MIG), which divides one GPU into hardware-isolated partitions so you can run a different model in each or take a right-sized fraction of a newer accelerator. This post shows how two optional API fields place one model per partition, and what we measured against a whole older GPU.

Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash: Fast and cost-effective with longer clips

Google DeepMind has launched Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, introducing native 15-second video generation, improved reference adherence, stronger consistency across frames, multi-turn conversational editing, more natural speech, and cinematic camera movements. The model is now generally available via the Gemini API and Gemini for business, priced at $0.07 per second for 720p video—30% lower than its predecessor. It supports scalable workflows, including draft generation at lower resolutions, iterative edits, and upscaling to 1080p or 4K. Use cases include product explainers, social ads, virtual try-ons, and branded content, with applications across Google AI Studio, Google Cloud, Google Vids, Flow, the Gemini app, and Google Ads.

How Amazon Marketplace evaluates content quality with Amazon SageMaker AI

Learn how Amazon Marketplace evaluates A+ Content quality at scale on Amazon SageMaker AI by rendering each product page as a single snapshot, scoring it with a vision-language model fused with OCR readability signals in a CatBoost classifier, and using SHAP to turn each decision into prioritized, actionable recommendations for selling partners.

New NVIDIA Cosmos 3 Open Models for Interactive World Simulation

NVIDIA has introduced four new open-weight checkpoints for its Cosmos 3 model family—Cosmos3-Nano-Transfer-Auto, Cosmos3-Nano-Sim-Auto, Cosmos3-Nano-Sim-Transfer, and Cosmos3-Nano-Sim-Bimanual—enabling interactive world simulation and multi-sensor, multi-view driving scene generation. Each model is a post-trained variant of Cosmos 3 Nano with 16B trainable parameters and is based on OpenMDW1.1, allowing commercial and non-commercial use. The checkpoints support applications in robotics and autonomous driving by generating synchronized camera and LiDAR data, enabling streaming simulations, translating simulator controls into photorealistic video, and predicting visual outcomes from robot actions. They are designed to be adapted using custom data and training recipes, with support for offline data generation, causal distillation, and interactive rollouts. Resources include technical reports, demos, and notebooks for inference and adaptation.

A thousand fewer paths to root

OpenAI built an autonomous pipeline that found, validated, and generated patches for 948 local privilege-escalation vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel.

vLLM Delivers Day-0 Support for Kimi K3.1 Pro

vLLM supports Kimi K3.1 Pro on day 0: sparse attention on a KDA hybrid, a packed KV cache with FP8 or NVFP4 latents and MXFP4 index keys, token-sharded prefill, decode context parallelism, and fused low-latency decode.

OpenAI launches GPT-6.1 Terra for faster, better-performing AI agents at half the price

OpenAI Group PBC today released GPT-6.1 Terra, an upgrade to the middle tier model in its lineup of frontier artificial intelligence systems. The new model, the successor to GTP-5.6 Terra, costs around 50% less while handling computer use tasks faster and with greater accuracy. Terra is positioned as the everyday model in OpenAI’s lineup, designed […] The post OpenAI launches GPT-6.1 Terra for faster, better-performing AI agents at half the price appeared first on SiliconANGLE.
