Deep Principle has released Hydrogen-1.0, an open-weight scientific model for chemistry, materials science and life sciences. It is built by post-training Z.ai’s GLM-5.3 on domain data, laboratory records and agent discovery trajectories. For developers, it offers open weights that report a FrontierScience-Research win over GPT-6-Astra. The weights ship under the MIT License. TL;DR Size: 753B parameters (MoE, ~40B active per the GLM-5.3 base), 1M-token context, 128K max output.
An open-weight scientific model with 753 billion parameters has been released for chemistry, materials science, and life sciences research. The model was created by post-training an existing base model on domain data, laboratory records, and discovery trajectories rather than just published papers. On a scientific reasoning benchmark, it outperforms a competing proprietary model, though it trails that model on a specific chemistry task. The model is available under an open license, allowing researchers to deploy and inspect it, addressing a gap where similar capabilities previously existed only in closed proprietary systems.

Here's a question straight out of sci-fi: What if AI could predict what you were going to do before you decided to, even in a completely new situation?

The weights of Mistral Large 4 (Le Chonk) are now open. A 1T parameter multimodal model, and best open-weight model for coding, trained in Europe.

Nvidia just released a free speech-to-text model that can transcribe up to 40 languages, but it only works on recordings, not live audio, so it’s a big step for meeting and medical transcription tools while still leaving real-time use to rivals like ElevenLabs.

OpenAI has updated its Model Spec, restructuring its AI behavior guidelines around five core values, including faithfulness to human intent and correctability. GPT models should now draw on conversation history to figure out what users actually want and disclose their own assumptions. Whether the models follow these rules is another matter. The article OpenAI sets new behavioral guidelines for AI models that have already proven hard to control appeared first on The Decoder.
