The perfect example is a platypus and the question "what is this animal?" The VLM reasoning trace mentions beak and fur. The LLM sees "beak and fur" and guesses platypus The vision encoder may have never seen a platypus, but the VLM gets it right 🤯



Introducing Claude Opus 4.7, our most capable Opus model yet. It handles long-running tasks with more rigor, follows instructions more precisely, and verifies its own outputs before reporting back. You can hand off your hardest work with less supervision.


@patloeber hey pat, I guess you are the right person to inform about the following issue -> discuss.ai.google.dev/t/urgent-free-… the rpd of the models don't reset in free tier, that's why I can experment with pro only a few times in a month and then have to use 3.1 flash lite (till using up 500 reqs)











Curious, how much are you all spending in S3/R2 or storage in general these days?








Today Thinking Machines Lab is launching our research blog, Connectionism. Our first blog post is “Defeating Nondeterminism in LLM Inference” We believe that science is better when shared. Connectionism will cover topics as varied as our research is: from kernel numerics to prompt engineering. Here we share what we are working on and connect with the research community frequently and openly. The name Connectionism is a throwback to an earlier era of AI; it was the name of the subfield in the 1980s that studied neural networks and their similarity to biological brains. thinkingmachines.ai/blog/defeating…
