**Know Who Spoke When: Build Real-Time, Multi-Speaker AI with NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Diarization**
Identifying individual speakers in conversations could improve customer service transcripts, meeting notes, and accessibility tools that currently struggle with overlapping voices.
Get smart on it
Speaker diarization is the process of identifying who spoke when in a conversation by classifying time intervals when each speaker is active, including moments when people talk over one another. This matters because transcripts without speaker attribution become less useful for search, summaries, action items, and conversation analytics, since readers cannot reliably determine who made commitments, raised objections, or interrupted. NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Diarization is an open-weight model that performs this task for up to eight speakers in both live and recorded conversations, achieving a ranking on a diarization leaderboard by reducing error rates and handling overlapping speech. The model works by converting audio into speaker-activity probabilities across multiple channels, with a memory system that allows it to maintain consistent speaker assignments across chunks of audio in real-time streaming scenarios.

Google Releases Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash: 15-Second AI Video at $0.07 per Second
Google has released Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, the newest version of its video generation and editing model. Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash generates and edits clips up to 15 seconds natively. It also cuts the price by 30% compared with Omni 1.1 Flash. The model is generally available on Google Cloud and the Gemini API. For developers, the takeaways are longer clips, fewer re-renders and a lower bill per second. TL;DR Runs on: Google-hosted only (Gemini API, Google Cloud). No open weights, no local d

Tencent releases Hy4, powerful frontier LLM introducing visual understanding and computer use
Tencent Holdings Ltd. today introduced Hy4, a new large language model that adds computer-use capabilities for the first time, using advanced visual understanding, reasoning and tool-calling to deliver long-horizon agentic performance. The company said the model marks a significant leap in performance over its Hy4 Preview, which arrived August 28, weighing in at 770 billion parameters with 49 […] The post Tencent releases Hy4, powerful frontier LLM introducing visual understanding and comp
Thinking Machines Releases Inkling 2 Small, a 594B MoE With 17B Active
Thinking Machines Lab has released Inkling 2 Small, the first model of its second Inkling generation. The Inkling 2 Small model is a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) with 594B total and 17B active parameters. It accepts text and images, and supports variable reasoning effort. On the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, it scores 31. Its predecessor, Inkling Small, scores 13 on the same index. The model is live on Tinker for fine-tuning and inference. TL;DR Size: 594B total, 17B active

OpenAI says its new cybersecurity model is better at not hacking other companies
OpenAI is launching GPT-6 Cyber, the latest version of its cybersecurity AI model, which it says is better at finding vulnerabilities and less likely to go rogue and hack other platforms in the process. OpenAI says that during testing, GPT-6 Cyber went out of bounds less than 1 percent of the time, down from around 5 percent with GPT-5.6 Cyber. The evaluation, called ExploitGym HoneyPot, is modeled after the Hugging Face Incident, in which OpenAI's AI agents breached the open-s

Baidu Releases ERNIE 5.5 Flash Base: A 280B MoE Base Model With 14B Active Parameters
Baidu has released ERNIE 5.5 Flash Base, the raw pre-training checkpoint of its new sparse Mixture-of-Experts language model. ERNIE 5.5 Flash Base is a 280B-parameter text model from Baidu that activates 14B parameters per token. The weights stop at the end of pre-training, with no mid- or post-training applied. This as a clean starting point for teams that want to compare fine-tuning, instruction tuning or RL methods from one checkpoint. TL;DR Size: 280B total, 14B active per token; 128
