Open Weights No Cage
Today's Tech Beat Daily turns Thinking Machines Lab's first open-weights model, Inkling, into a UK grime x Bay Area hyphy rap MV. The track rides the main facts: 975B total parameters, 41B active parameters, a one-million-token context window, 45T-token multimodal pretraining, full weights on Hugging Face, and a Tinker customization story built around open weights instead of one-size-fits-all AI.
The bridge widens the beat to the same-day enterprise AI lane: Databricks bringing Inkling through Unity AI Gateway, Ode's Anthropic-backed implementation push, and Apple's China launch path for Apple Intelligence with Alibaba's Qwen.
