Reka Flash 3
Reka Flash 3 is a 21-billion-parameter multimodal AI model developed by Reka AI, designed to excel in general chat, coding, instruction following, and function calling. It processes and reasons with text, images, video, and audio inputs, offering a compact, general-purpose solution for various applications. Trained from scratch on diverse datasets, including publicly accessible and synthetic data, Reka Flash 3 underwent instruction tuning on curated, high-quality data to optimize performance. The final training stage involved reinforcement learning using REINFORCE Leave One-Out (RLOO) with both model-based and rule-based rewards, enhancing its reasoning capabilities. With a context length of 32,000 tokens, Reka Flash 3 performs competitively with proprietary models like OpenAI's o1-mini, making it suitable for low-latency or on-device deployments. The model's full precision requires 39GB (fp16), but it can be compressed to as small as 11GB using 4-bit quantization.

Tülu 3
Tülu 3 is an advanced instruction-following language model developed by the Allen Institute for AI (Ai2), designed to enhance capabilities in areas such as knowledge, reasoning, mathematics, coding, and safety. Built upon the Llama 3 Base, Tülu 3 employs a comprehensive four-stage post-training process: meticulous prompt curation and synthesis, supervised fine-tuning on a diverse set of prompts and completions, preference tuning using both off- and on-policy data, and a novel reinforcement learning approach to bolster specific skills with verifiable rewards. This open-source model distinguishes itself by providing full transparency, including access to training data, code, and evaluation tools, thereby closing the performance gap between open and proprietary fine-tuning methods. Evaluations indicate that Tülu 3 outperforms other open-weight models of similar size, such as Llama 3.1-Instruct and Qwen2.5-Instruct, across various benchmarks.

Olmo 2
Olmo 2 is a family of fully open language models developed by the Allen Institute for AI (AI2), designed to provide researchers and developers with transparent access to training data, open-source code, reproducible training recipes, and comprehensive evaluations. These models are trained on up to 5 trillion tokens and are competitive with leading open-weight models like Llama 3.1 on English academic benchmarks. Olmo 2 emphasizes training stability, implementing techniques to prevent loss spikes during long training runs, and utilizes staged training interventions during late pretraining to address capability deficiencies. The models incorporate state-of-the-art post-training methodologies from AI2's Tülu 3, resulting in the creation of Olmo 2-Instruct models. An actionable evaluation framework, the Open Language Modeling Evaluation System (OLMES), was established to guide improvements through development stages, consisting of 20 evaluation benchmarks assessing core capabilities.
