LTM-2-mini is a 100M token context model: LTM-2-mini. 100M tokens equals ~10 million lines of code or ~750 novels. For each decoded token, LTM-2-mini’s sequence-dimension algorithm is roughly 1000x cheaper than the attention mechanism in Llama 3.1 405B1 for a 100M token context window. The contrast in memory requirements is even larger – running Llama 3.1 405B with a 100M token context requires 638 H100s per user just to store a single 100M token KV cache.2 In contrast, LTM requires a small fraction of a single H100’s HBM per user for the same context.

The o3-mini-high model from OpenAI advances AI reasoning by refining deep problem-solving in coding, mathematics, and complex tasks.

Chinchilla is a large language model. Chinchilla uses the same compute budget as Gopher but with 70B parameters and 4× more more data. Chinchilla uniformly and significantly outperforms Gopher (280B), GPT-3 (175B), Jurassic-1 (178B), and Megatron-Turing NLG (530B) on a large range of downstream evaluation tasks. This also means that Chinchilla uses substantially less compute for fine-tuning and inference, greatly facilitating downstream usage. As a highlight, Chinchilla reaches a state-of-the-art average accuracy of 67.5% on the MMLU benchmark, greater than a 7% improvement over Gopher.

Merrymake is a European AI think tank and dedicated research lab based in Aarhus, Denmark. We are actively working to accelerate a safe and sovereign transition to Artificial Superintelligence (ASI). Our core mission is to ensure that superhuman intelligence benefits all of life, humanity, and every individual. We believe that achieving ASI is the most profound technological leap of our time. At Merrymake, we are not just building this intelligence; we are engineering a safe bridge to get there. Rooted in European values of transparency, collaboration, and public benefit, we approach the transition with rigorous care. We actively focus on stabilizing the job market, evolving education, and partnering with governments to guarantee strict privacy and public safety. Operating at the technical frontier, our team approaches both AI capability and alignment as unified, solvable engineering challenges. Our research spans the full stack of frontier AI development.

SEELE AI is an end-to-end multimodal platform that transforms simple text prompts into immersive, interactive 3D game worlds, enabling users to generate environments, assets, characters, and interactions, then remix and evolve them dynamically. It supports real-time asset generation, spatial generation, and infinite remixing of game content; users can build natural scenery, parkour, or racing game levels, and interactive spaces simply by describing them. Backed by cutting-edge models (including those from Baidu), it aims to reduce traditional 3D game development complexity, giving creators the ability to rapidly prototype and explore virtual worlds without needing deep technical expertise. SEELE’s core features include text-to-3D generation, infinite remixing, interactive world editing, and the generation of game content that is playable and modifiable.
