Mira Murati's Thinking Machines Lab just released their first open-weights model — a Mixture-of-Experts transformer with 975B total parameters, 41B active, Apache-2.0 licensed and trained on 45 trillion tokens of text, images, audio and video.

A proposal that both addresses the hypocrisy of labs outlawing distillation against their models despite training on unlicensed data, and could help US open models compete more effectively with their Chinese counterparts.

Sources — by share of their own coverage

Source Posts Share of their coverage
1 TBPN their beat 345 51.4%
2 Latent Space their beat 269 53.9%
3 Deep Learning Weekly their beat 227 120.1%
4 Hacker Noon volume 210 5.6%
5 Don't Worry About the Vase (Zvi) their beat 202 37.9%
6 ThursdAI - The top AI news from the past week their beat 182 88.8%
7 Interconnects their beat 146 39.4%
8 Towards AI Newsletter their beat 140 72.2%
9 Bloomberg Tech 133 11.6%
10 Venture Daily Digest their beat 130 34.7%

Share of coverage separates a beat from a mention: a show spending most of its output here (“their beat”) reads very differently from a big publisher where this is a sliver of a firehose (“volume”). Both are ranked by raw matching posts.
