DirCast: Live Esports Directing and Commentary with a Single Streaming Video-Language Model

arXiv:2610.31734v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A live esports broadcast needs a director who chooses which camera goes on air and a caster who talks over that choice, every second and without knowing what comes next. Streaming video language models have learned to commentate, but only over a broadcast that a human director has already produced. We study live broadcast production, in which a model receives the raw camera of every player and must both direct and commentate from the past alone. We present DirCast, a single streaming video language model that does both. Every second it scans all cameras at low resolution, decides with a hold-or-switch director whether and where to cut, and reads the chosen camera at high resolution before it speaks. Its context keeps what went on air and what

Quantum Cadence: Post-Quantum Consensus with Multiple Concurrent Proposers

arXiv:2610.32803v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The consensus protocols of most high-performance blockchains use quorum certificates, which bundle the signatures of a quorum of validators. Signature schemes such as BLS can aggregate the signatures of a whole quorum into a single short signature, which keeps these certificates small. A large-scale quantum computer would break these schemes, and no post-quantum scheme with comparable aggregate size and aggregation time is known. Without aggregation, a certificate holds one large post-quantum signature per member of the quorum, so it becomes infeasible for each validator to broadcast certificates, as modern consensus protocols often require. We present Quantum Cadence, a post-quantum consensus protocol with multiple concurrent proposers that

i14 releases the Laplace 3B linear attention model: inference with fixed-state memory, implemented on AWS Trainium2 and native PyTorch.

i14 has launched the Laplace 3B model with 3.028 billion parameters, which replaces Softmax attention with Gated Linear Attention (GLA). During inference, its per-sequence recursive state remains constant at 29.5 MB, independent of context length. The model was trained and validated on a single AWS trn2.48xlarge instance (equipped with 16 Trainium 2 chips), achieving a training throughput of 120,000 tokens per second and an inference throughput of 11,544 output tokens per second (with 1,280 concurrent sequences). All performance metrics are based on internal measurements conducted by i14 and the AWS GenAIIC team.
