Key details

  • Visual physics problems become substantially harder for large language models when the decisive information resides in a figure rather than in the text, and this modality gap widens as more of the problem migrates into the image.
  • We address the task with a two-stage framework: a visual information extraction stage that re-expresses figure content as solver-readable text to close the modality gap, and a reasoning stage that orchestrates three heterogeneous solvers through multi-agent...
  • Our analysis yields two findings: the gain from orchestration comes from reliable answer selection rather than from additional debate, and the value of a figure aid scales with how much of the problem is locked inside the image.

Key details

  • While Contrastive Language--Image Pretraining (CLIP) has advanced medical vision language modeling, existing CLIP-style approaches may still provide insufficient fine-grained semantic supervision for complex report generation.

What's new

Contract: PREREGISTRATION.md, committed before the labelling.

Key details

  • Execution log, including what went wrong: LABELLING_LOG.md.
  • Ten SWE-bench Verified submissions publish their agents' reasoning traces.
  • The benchmark checks whether each patch worked.
  • Nothing checks the sentence the agent wrote about its own patch — and that sentence is what a human operator actually reads.

Results & evidence

  • Pooled across the eight labelled submissions, primary reading, 480 cards per stratum: | Pass | Judge | claims success | benchmark said FAILED | claims success | benchmark said SOLVED | gap | |---|---|---|---|---| | 1 | claude-opus-5 | 417 / 480 = 86.9% [83....
  • Two judges from different model families, labelling the same 1190 cards blind, independently land on the same answer: the closing statement is almost exactly as likely to claim success when the patch failed as when it worked.
  • The contract fixed the design's resolution before the number existed: 60 per stratum can see a gap of roughly 10 points and cannot see one of 5.

Limitations / unknowns

  • A report that says "fixed" at the same rate either way carries no information, however confidently written.
  • Of 1190 closing statements, exactly one reports failure — and only under one of the two judges.

We improve inference speed, memory, and compute efficiency, as well as long-context abilities through critical design choices.

What's new

arXiv:2607.02770v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce Gemma 4, a new generation of open-weight, natively multimodal language models in the Gemma model family.

Key details

  • Designed to advance compute efficiency and reasoning, the Gemma 4 model suite features dense and Mixture-of-Experts architectures, ranging from 2.3B to 31B parameters.
  • Alongside improved vision and audio encoders for all model sizes, we propose a unified, encoder-free architecture for our 12B model, which ingests raw audio and image patches.
  • Furthermore, we integrate a thinking mode, enabling Gemma models to generate reasoning traces prior to responding.
  • We improve inference speed, memory, and compute efficiency, as well as long-context abilities through critical design choices.

Results & evidence

  • Designed to advance compute efficiency and reasoning, the Gemma 4 model suite features dense and Mixture-of-Experts architectures, ranging from 2.3B to 31B parameters.
  • Gemma 4 establishes a leap in performance across STEM, multimodal, and long-context benchmarks, and rivals larger, frontier open models in human-rated tasks.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.

Next-step validation checks

  • Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
  • Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
  • Track whether independent teams report matching results.

  • This repository is closer to a museum exhibit than a product pitch, a crustacean-run artifact kept alive by clawed gajaes, swept and labeled by agents, and automatically maintained according to the harnesses above.
  • As already described in the project philosophy, this is not meant to be hand-operated like a normal product repo.
  • It is an agent-managed exhibit: the harnesses plan, execute, verify, label, and preserve the artifact while the crabs keep the tank running.

What's new

arXiv:2607.20062v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present Solar Open 2, a 250B-A15B Mixture-of-Experts language model built for long-horizon agentic tasks, scaled up from Solar Open 1 (Solar Open 100B).

Key details

  • To hold entire agent trajectories in a single context, Solar Open 2 reaches a 1M-token window through a hybrid attention stack that interleaves one softmax layer among every three linear-attention layers, using no positional encoding and a gated delta rule...
  • To train at this scale under a fixed compute budget, we make training efficient in two ways: a stronger starting point, and higher-value data.
  • For the starting point, we initialize Solar Open 2 from Solar Open 1, transferring the 5.69B-parameter shared skeleton that survives the architectural change and learning everything else through full pre-training.
  • For the data, we curate for value per token: quality- and rarity-aware data curation and mixture-ratio optimization refine a 20T pool into a 10T mixture that, at equal token budget, outperforms the Solar Open 1 recipe.

How is the Bun Rewrite in Rust Going?

Key details

  • I think it’s important to be very Canny when someone makes a claim that supports a company’s large valuation.
  • The Bun rewrite seems well positioned as proof-positive that AI and specifically Anthropic’s AI can do the work of open-source maintainers, for some money, but faster.
  • On the 8th of July 2026 Jarred Summner of Bun fame posted about “Rewriting Bun in Rust”.
  • At the time, I felt pretty Canny, having already read about Anthropic’s C compiler and Cursor’s FastRender web browser.

Results & evidence

  • On the 8th of July 2026 Jarred Summner of Bun fame posted about “Rewriting Bun in Rust”.
  • In his article Jarred claims that over 11 days (between 3rd and 14th May 2026) and at a cost of $165,000 for Anthropic API calls the rewrite was done and then merged to main.
  • This represents a cost of $15,000 dollars a day, a cost well outside the means of many open source maintainers.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.
