Today, we are thrilled to officially launch RadixArk with $100M in Seed funding at a $400M valuation. The round was led by @Accel and co-led by @sparkcapital. RadixArk exists to make frontier AI infrastructure open and accessible to everyone. Today, the systems behind the most capable AI models are concentrated in a small number of companies. As a result, most AI teams are forced to rebuild training and inference stacks from scratch, duplicating the same infrastructure work instead of focusing on new models, products, and ideas. RadixArk was founded to change that. We are building an AI platform that makes it easier for teams to train and serve the best models at scale. RadixArk comes from the open-source community. We started with SGLang, where many of us are core developers and maintainers, and expanded our work to Miles for large-scale RL and post-training. We will continue contributing to both projects and working with the community to make them the strongest open-source infrastructure foundations for frontier AI. We would like to thank our long-term partners, contributors, and the broader SGLang community for believing in this mission. We're also grateful to @Accel and @sparkcapital, NVentures (Venture capital arm of @nvidia), Salience Capital, A&E Investment, @HOFCapital, @walden_catalyst, @AMD, LDVP, WTT Fubon Family, @MediaTek, Vocal Ventures, @Sky9Capital and our angel investors @ibab, @LipBuTan1, Hock Tan, @johnschulman2, @soumithchintala, @lilianweng, @oliveur, @Thom_Wolf, @LiamFedus, @robertnishihara, @ericzelikman, @OfficialLoganK, and @multiply_matrix among others. Thanks for the exclusive interview with @MeghanBobrowsky at @WSJ about our vision.



DeepSeek V4 by @deepseek_ai just dropped! SGLang is ready on Day 0 with a full stack of optimizations from architectures to low-level kernels. We also deliver a verified RL training pipeline in Miles (by @radixark) for V4 at launch: 1️⃣ Native "ShadowRadix" Design: DeepSeek V4's hybrid attention is complex. Our new ShadowRadix engine is the first to provide native prefix caching for SWA and compressed KV pools, making 1M+ context retrieval seamless and memory-efficient. 2️⃣ High-Performance Kernels: - Flash Compressor: IO-aware fused kernels, 10x faster than naive implementations. - Lightning TopK: High-speed indexing for 1M context in just 15µs. - Integrate FlashInfer trtllm-gen MoE, FlashMLA, and MegaMoE kernels 3️⃣ Rich Features: Speculative decoding, HiSparse, Attention DP/TP/CP and MoE TP/EP, and multi-platform support 4️⃣ Verified RL: The open-source RL pipeline: full parallelism (DP/TP/EP/PP/CP), tilelang kernels, tensor-level checked precision, verified with growing reward. Get started immediately with our out-of-the-box Cookbook 👇 Enjoy! #DeepSeekV4 #SGLang #LLM

me trying for kid no. 3:







yall reading too much tea leaves nothing changed, just a new automation for badges which got rid of mine inadvertently but actually I prefer not having the badge because it feels kinda weird posting about inflammation and phosphatidylcholine IV like I'm representing xai so I told them to not add it back it will be back when I'm *actually* back in the trenches with the team


Since xAI was formed just 30 months ago, the small and talented team has made remarkable progress. The future has never looked more exciting!
