Inkling
Inkling is an open-weights multimodal AI model from Thinking Machines designed as a customizable foundation model for developers, researchers, and enterprises. The model is a Mixture-of-Experts transformer with 975 billion total parameters, 41 billion active parameters, and support for context windows up to 1 million tokens. Inkling was trained from scratch on text, images, audio, and video, giving it native capabilities across reasoning, coding, agentic tool use, vision, audio, factuality, and instruction following. It is built with controllable thinking effort so users can balance performance, latency, and token efficiency for different workloads. The model is available for fine-tuning on Tinker, with playground access, API availability through ecosystem partners, and full weights published on Hugging Face. Built for customization, Inkling gives teams an open-weights base model for building domain-specific AI systems, multimodal agents, coding workflows, research tools, and more.

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.
