Klein 9B is undistilled and non-commercial, wants ~29GB, and sub-second RTX 4090 speeds don't translate to MPS. Where the CUDA gap comes from (memory bandwidth, FP8), and the 4B follow-up that hits 30-40s per 1024px image on M1 Max.
Microsoft released an open-source framework that can optimize almost any AI agent with reinforcement learning, with little to no code changes. It supports arbitrary frameworks such as LangChain, AutoGen, and Claude Agent SDK.
OpenRouter ships :free models and a Free Router endpoint. Tested both for rate limits (50/day → 1,000/day after a $10 top-up), the tool-calling failure on free models, and which workloads they actually fit.
I looked into PageIndex, a RAG system that builds hierarchical document trees using only LLM reasoning, without chunking or vector databases. I also consider how it fits with layout detection and OCR pipelines.
This article organizes the major video-generation AI updates announced in January 2026 and examines whether i2v (image→video) is practically usable, including models that run locally.
Gemini auto-generates images when you only ask about one or request a text prompt. The Saved info rule that stops it, a conversation-level fix, and where Google's fixes currently stand.
An overview of Kimi K2.5’s technical highlights from Moonshot AI: a 1T-parameter MoE architecture, the MoonViT vision encoder, Agent Swarm (PARL), benchmark results, and more.
A comparison of the hook features offered by Gemini CLI, Claude Code, and Codex CLI. The differences in design philosophy are more interesting than I expected.
Baidu's PaddleOCR-VL-1.5 reaches 94.5% accuracy on OmniDocBench v1.5 with just 0.9B parameters, surpassing large models such as GPT-4o and Qwen2.5-VL-72B.
Anthropic published official guides on how to use Claude Code effectively and how to build agents with the Agent SDK. This article summarizes the key points from both.
