Total amt of flops across all the GPUs in the world has grown about 3x per year for the last few years. Total amt of inference demand has probably grown ~10x per year. What happens when those lines cross? The econ answer is: when demand > supply, price goes up. That might be true (even H100s are more expensive than they have ever been...) but doesn't actually solve the problem on its own here - demand continues to grow as we unlock new use cases and there is only so much additional supply coming. To get to a healthy equilibrium, we also need to shift much more usage to smaller, targeted models. This will happen naturally as the incentives make sense for it: it's much easier to 10x your agent usage if you know that you can now solve 90% of your tasks with good cheap, fast models. SWE 1.6 is not a general model. But we have trained it to specifically be good at the kinds of standard coding tasks that our users run. And thanks to its small size & a little magic from Cerebras it can run very cheaply at ~1000 tokens / sec. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
Cognition@cognition

We’re releasing SWE-1.6, our best model in both intelligence & model UX. SWE-1.6 matches our Preview model on SWE-Bench Pro while dramatically improving on various behavioral axes. It’s available today in Windsurf in two modes: free tier (200 tok/s) and fast tier (950 tok/s).

I first found out about @appliedcompute when they hired multiple truly world-class people who I assumed would next start companies of their own. I considered these sort of people to be unhireable… until I saw Applied Compute do it, repeatedly. Since we @kleinerperkins had the great fortune of partnering with them for their Series B, @ypatil125, @rhythmrg, @lindensli & their incredible team have continued to prove the impossible possible. They’ve built a mission-critical platform that some of the world’s most important companies use to supercharge their use of today’s frontier model capabilities with their own proprietary data & expertise. If you are looking to join a special team at the intersection of research and real-world model deployment, please reach out! Applied Compute is hiring across most roles.
Yash Patil@ypatil125

Today we’re announcing $80M in new financing for @appliedcompute, to help enterprises go from general to specific intelligence. Our view is that the winners of this era will be the companies that turn their information, and expertise into intelligent systems that compound over time. They’ll have agents that get sharper every week by learning from real decisions, outcomes, and feedback.

Devin Review caught the axios supply chain attack for multiple Cognition customers before the attack was publicly known. These attacks will be 10x more frequent in the age of AI; it is critical that repo maintainers start using AI for defense as well. (showing one example below where Devin Review caught the attack within an hour of its release - text minorly edited for anonymization)

True story! Thrilled to have @GallagherBilly onboard 🚀🚀
Ryan Daniels@ryanjdaniels

but wait, there's more. With this fundraise, we're also announcing that Prospect is joining forces with @crosbylegal. The sensational founder @GallagherBilly is joining us as Head of Marketing. We've been getting to know Billy over the last few months. Minutes after he first left our office, I called our @graceisford to say: we have to work with this guy. True story.

“Legal AI is crowded, but the distinction that matters most is often overlooked. Most companies in this space sell productivity tools to law firms, analogous to in-line code completion today — speeding up what lawyers already do while leaving the work to humans. Crosby takes a fundamentally different approach: what Ryan calls a “neofirm”. It’s a services company built from the ground up to integrate the workflows of professionals and AI agents.”
