merve/january-31-releases-679a10669bd4030090c5de4d
LLMs 💬
> Huge: AllenAI released new Tülu models that outperform DeepSeek R1 using Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Reward (RLVR) based on Llama 3.1 405B 🔥
> Mistral AI is back to open-source with their "small" 24B models (base & SFT), with Apache 2.0 license 😱
> Alibaba Qwen released their 1M context length models Qwen2.5-Instruct-1M, great for agentic use with Apache 2.0 license 🔥
> Arcee AI released Virtuoso-medium, 32.8B LLMs distilled from DeepSeek V3 with dataset of 5B+ tokens
> Velvet-14B is a new family of 14B Italian LLMs trained on 10T tokens in six languages
> OpenThinker-7B is fine-tuned version of Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct on OpenThoughts dataset
VLMs & vision 👀
> Alibaba Qwen is back with Qwen2.5VL, amazing new capabilities ranging from agentic computer use to zero-shot localization 🔥
> NVIDIA released new series of Eagle2 models with 1B and 9B sizes
> DeepSeek released Janus-Pro, new any-to-any model (image-text generation from image-text input) with MIT license
> BEN2 is a new background removal model with MIT license!
Audio 🗣️
> YuE is a new open-source music generation foundation model, lyrics-to-song generation
Codebase 👩🏻💻
> We are open-sourcing our SmolVLM training and eval codebase! https://github.com/huggingface/smollm/tree/main/vision
> Open-R1 is open-source reproduction of R1 by @huggingface science team https://huggingface.co/blog/open-r1
