Sina Weibo's VibeThinker-3B has just three billion parameters but matches models like DeepSeek V3.2 and Kimi K2.5 on math and coding benchmarks. Those models are up to 333 times larger. The secret isn't size but multi-stage post-training. The researchers propose a hypothesis based on their findings: logical reasoning compresses well into small models, but br

Researchers at Princeton University built CEO-Bench, a test where AI agents have to run a fictional software company for 500 simulated days. Most current models go broke, and a simple rule-based heuristic with no AI beats nearly all of them. The article Only three AI models finished above starting capital in a 500-day startup survival test appeared first on

Liquid AI released LFM2.5-230M, its smallest model yet. The 230M-parameter, open-weight model runs on-device at 213 tok/s on a Galaxy S25 Ultra and 42 on a Raspberry Pi 5. Built on the LFM2 architecture, it targets tool use and data extraction, beating larger models like Qwen3.5-0.8B and Gemma 3 1B on instruction following. The post Liquid AI Ships LFM2.5-23

In this tutorial, we build a stable workflow around the Fable 5 Traces dataset from Hugging Face. We avoid fragile dependencies and manually parse the merged JSONL file to keep Colab reliable. We inspect repository files, normalize tool calls, audit structure, redact secrets, and visualize key distributions. We also export safe no-CoT chat datasets and train

In this technical collaboration between AWS and the authors, we present a pragmatic solution: agentic overlays. Agentic overlays are thin wrapper layers that transform traditional REST-based services into agents capable of participating in A2A interactions. They also expose REST APIs as tools compatible with the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Together, they l
