DeepReinforce has released Ornith-1.0, an open-source model family built for agentic coding. The lineup spans four sizes, from a 9B dense model to a 397B mixture-of-experts flagship. Every checkpoint ships under the MIT license on Hugging Face. The models are post-trained on top of pretrained Gemma 4 and Qwen 3.5. Most coding agents pair a model with a fixed, human-designed harness. Ornith-1.0 instead learns to write its own. The DeepReinforce research team reports state-of-the-art results a
An open-source coding model family called Ornith-1.0 has been released in four sizes, ranging from 9 billion to 397 billion parameters. Unlike typical coding agents that use a fixed human-designed framework, Ornith-1.0 learns to write and refine its own framework during training, optimizing both the framework and the solution together. The models are designed to handle coding tasks like multi-file refactors and bug fixes, and the largest version performs competitively with other open models on coding benchmarks. The release includes safeguards against reward hacking through fixed trust boundaries, action monitoring, and a frozen judge to prevent the model from gaming the reward system.

Most end-to-end OCR models slow down as output grows. Each generated token adds to the KV cache. Memory rises and generation drags. Parsing dozens of pages becomes impractical. Baidu’s Unlimited OCR addresses this directly. It swaps the decoder’s attention for a design that keeps memory constant. TL;DR Unlimited OCR is a 3B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model, with only 500M parameters active. It replaces decoder attention with Reference Sliding Window Attention (R-SWA), k

Gradium today released two real-time speech translation models: stt-translate and s2s-translate. Both run across five languages and stream results live in the browser. Gradium claims a better accuracy-latency tradeoff than gpt-realtime-translate and gemini-3.5-live-translate. It also adds output voice control, including cloning, that gpt-realtime-translate lacks. TL;DR Gradium launched two real-time speech translation models: stt-translate (speech → text) and s2s-translate (speech → s

Today, Mistral AI released OCR 4, its latest document-understanding model. This new release adds bounding boxes, block classification, and inline confidence scores alongside extracted text. It supports 170 languages across 10 language groups and runs in a single container for fully self-hosted deployments. OCR 4 also serves as an ingestion component for enterprise search, RAG, and domain-specific retrieval pipelines. TL;DR OCR 4 returns bounding boxes, typed-block labels, and per-word c
