Sun Finance automates ID extraction and fraud detection with generative AI on AWS

Artificial Intelligence Sun Finance automates ID extraction and fraud detection with generative AI on AWS This post was co-authored with Krišjānis Kočāns, Kaspars Magaznieks, Sergei Kiriasov from Sun Finance Group If you process identity documents at scale—loan applications, account openings, compliance checks—you’ve likely hit the same wall: traditional optical character recognition (OCR) gets you partway there, but extraction errors still push a large share of applications into manual review queues. Add fraud detection to the mix, and the manual workload compounds. Sun Finance, a Latvian fintech founded in 2017, operates as a technology-first online lending marketplace across nine countries. The company processes a new loan request every 0.63 seconds and delivers more than 4 million evaluations monthly. In one of their highest-volume industries, with 80,000 monthly applications for microloans, approximately 60% of applications required manual operator review. Sun Finance partnered…

AWS Generative AI Model Agility Solution: A comprehensive guide to migrating LLMs for generative AI production

Artificial Intelligence AWS Generative AI Model Agility Solution: A comprehensive guide to migrating LLMs for generative AI production Maintaining model agility is crucial for organizations to adapt to technological advancements and optimize their artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. Whether transitioning between different large language model (LLM) families or upgrading to newer versions within the same family, a structured migration approach and a standardized process are essential for facilitating continuous performance improvement while minimizing operational disruptions. However, developing such a solution is challenging in both technical and non-technical aspects because the solution needs to: - Be generic to cover a variety of use cases - Be specific so that a new user can apply it to the target use case - Provide comprehensive and fair comparison between LLMs - Be automated and scalable - Incorporate domain- and task-specific knowledge and inputs -…

Run custom MCP proxies serverless on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime

Artificial Intelligence Run custom MCP proxies serverless on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime When AI agents connect to tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), they gain access to capabilities that range from database queries and API calls to file operations and third-party service integrations. In production, these interactions need proper governance, controls, and observability aligned with an organization’s security policies. This includes sanitizing tool inputs before they reach backend systems, generating audit trails in specific formats, or redacting sensitive data at the protocol layer. These requirements are shaped by internal governance standards, industry regulations, and the specifics of each production environment. This post shows you how to deploy a serverless MCP proxy on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime that gives you a programmable layer to implement these controls. Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway provides centralized governance and control for agent-tool integration, including…

Cost-effective multilingual audio transcription at scale with Parakeet-TDT and AWS Batch

Artificial Intelligence Cost-effective multilingual audio transcription at scale with Parakeet-TDT and AWS Batch Many organizations are archiving large media libraries, analyzing contact center recordings, preparing training data for AI, or processing on-demand video for subtitles. When data volumes grow significantly, managed automatic speech recognition (ASR) service costs can quickly become the primary constraint on scalability. To address this cost-scalability challenge, we use the NVIDIA Parakeet-TDT-0.6B-v3 model, deployed through AWS Batch on GPU-accelerated instances. Parakeet-TDT’s Token-and-Duration Transducer architecture simultaneously predicts text tokens and their duration to intelligently skip silence and redundant processing. This helps achieve inference speeds orders of magnitude faster than real-time. By paying only for brief bursts of compute rather than the full length of your audio, you can transcribe at scale for fractions of a cent per hour of audio based on the benchmarks described in this post.…

End-to-end lineage with DVC and Amazon SageMaker AI MLflow apps

Artificial Intelligence End-to-end lineage with DVC and Amazon SageMaker AI MLflow apps Production machine learning (ML) teams struggle to trace the full lineage of a model through the data and the code that trained it, the exact dataset version it consumed, and the experiment metrics that justified its deployment. Without this traceability, questions like “which data trained the model currently in production?” or “can we reproduce the model we deployed six months ago?” become multi-day investigations through scattered logs, notebooks, and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets. This gap is especially acute in regulated industries. For example, healthcare, financial services, autonomous vehicles, where audit requirements demand that you link deployed models to their precise training data, and where individual records might need to be excluded from future training on request. In this post, we show how to combine three…

Power video semantic search with Amazon Nova Multimodal Embeddings

Artificial Intelligence Power video semantic search with Amazon Nova Multimodal Embeddings Video semantic search is unlocking new value across industries. The demand for video-first experiences is reshaping how organizations deliver content, and customers expect fast, accurate access to specific moments within video. For example, sports broadcasters need to surface the exact moment a player scored to deliver highlight clips to fans instantly. Studios need to find every scene featuring a specific actor across thousands of hours of archived content to create personalized trailers and promotional content. News organizations need to retrieve footage by mood, location, or event to publish breaking stories faster than competitors. The goal is the same: deliver video content to end users quickly, capture the moment, and monetize the experience. Video is naturally more complex than other modalities like text or image because it amalgamates multiple unstructured…

Optimize video semantic search intent with Amazon Nova Model Distillation on Amazon Bedrock

Artificial Intelligence Optimize video semantic search intent with Amazon Nova Model Distillation on Amazon Bedrock Optimizing models for video semantic search requires balancing accuracy, cost, and latency. Faster, smaller models lack routing intelligence, while larger, accurate models add significant latency overhead. In Part 1 of this series, we showed how to build a multimodal video semantic search system on AWS with intelligent intent routing using the Anthropic Claude Haiku model in Amazon Bedrock. While the Haiku model delivers strong accuracy for user search intent, it increases end-to-end search time to 2-4 seconds. This contributes to 75% of the overall latency. Now consider what happens as the routing logic grows more complex. Enterprise metadata can be far more complex than the five attributes in our example (title, caption, people, genre, and timestamp). Customers may factor in camera angles, mood and sentiment,…

Figma - MultiAgents April 16, 2026

Everything is easier now. I have been toying around with agent orchestration for a while now. I’m currently running 10-20 agents around the clock.AI agents are now capable of bringing my ideas to life. Like many developers, I’ve been feeling the token anxiety. I can do much more now than ever before, and every time I have a spare minute I want to kick off another agent session. - I see a cool product I don’t want to pay for? Codex will build it for me. - I have a silly idea I want to see come to life? Codex will build it for me. - I get mildly annoyed doing the same thing over and over? Codex pls. If you have an army of infinitely patient, intelligent, and helpful agents waiting for your next command, why shouldn’t we take…

Lessons learned from building multi-agent workflows April 16, 2026

I pay my upfront subscription ($200/month), write what I hope is the right prompt (prompt AND context engineer), and wait. 35 minutes later, it’s still 'synthesizing', 'perusing', 'effecting', and 'germinating' (who came up with these). By the end, I have files of bad code, a bloated context window, and I’m counting the remaining tokens on my left hand. Okay, I grab an apple, compact, type some heavy handed verbal abuse, re-explain everything from scratch, and pray the next attempt gets further than the last one…. only to be disappointed by the same result. By now, the spark and joys of AI coding are long dead. Stop being a one-shot Sloperator This is the single-agent ceiling. Every developer building with AI agents hits it the moment their project graduates from a 3D HTML snake game to anything more practical. This happens…

The Debate of MCP vs. CLI Centers on Speed April 06, 2026

MCP had a formative year. Then it had a turbulent week. Perplexity CTO Denis Yarats walked on stage at Ask 2026 and announced that Perplexity was moving away from MCPs… and back to APIs and CLIs. Immediately, Twitter split into two camps. Not surprising, given MCP grew from an Anthropic open standard in November 2024 to industry-wide adoptions with over 97 million monthly downloads in just thirteen months(1) across a range of companies and platforms. Yet Perplexity, a prominent AI company, chose to walk away from it. MCP's overhead isn't arbitrary. The protocol works by(2) guiding model interactions down specific, auditable paths: every tool call carries its full schema definition, every auth handshake runs end to end, and every step waits for the previous one to complete before the next begins. That predictability is exactly what enterprise deployments need. But…

Why speed wins: faster inference is about more than just quicker answers–it’s the new path to accuracy February 19, 2026

Feb 19 2026 Why speed wins: faster inference is about more than just quicker answers–it’s the new path to accuracy Watching extraordinary athletes compete at the Winter Olympic games in Milano-Cortina these last two weeks, is a reminder that world-class performance demands excellence across many fronts—and is hard to sustain indefinitely. Biathlon, which originated in the 1700s as a race-and-shoot event between ski patrol units at the Sweden-Norway border, offers a particularly good example. Athletes cross-country ski at near-maximum effort and then immediately transition into target shooting. The sport doesn’t reward athletes who are “fast” or “accurate” in isolation—it crowns the best combination of skiing speed and marksmanship under fatigue, weather, and pressure. Raw speed is not only necessary to stay ahead of competitors, but also to provide enough margin to shoot clean and avoid costly time penalties. The sport…

The result is an urgent and growing need for more fast inference across the industry. Cerebras…

Introducing OpenAI GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark Powered by Cerebras February 12, 2026

Today, we’re announcing that OpenAI’s new GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark model, powered by Cerebras, is available in research preview. This marks the first release in our collaboration between Cerebras and OpenAI. Codex-Spark is designed for real-time software development where responsiveness matters as much as intelligence. Powered by the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine, it runs at over 1,000 tokens/s, enabling near-instant feedback in live coding environments. Agentic coding has fundamentally changed software development. For the first time, machines can autonomously work for hours or days without human supervision. But this mode of interaction can also leave developers feeling out of the loop with long wait times and less opportunity to direct the work. As software development is iterative, developers need to inject taste, direction, and sensibility along the way. Codex-Spark is designed for this kind of real-time, iterative work. It is fast, responsive, and steerable,…

Context Engineering for Agentic Systems: What Goes Into Your Agent's Mind A practical introduction to context engineering - what fills the LLM context window in agentic systems, why it matters, and how to keep it under control. April 20, 2026Every new generation of Large Language Models arrives with a bigger context window - and the temptation to use it fully. If the model can read a million tokens, why not feed it everything? In practice, more context doesn’t reliably mean better answers: it often means higher costs, slower responses, and a model that loses track of what actually matters. Context engineering is the discipline of deciding not just what to put in the context window, but how much, in what form, and when to leave things out - and it’s quickly becoming one of the most important skills in building…

How to build scalable web apps with OpenAI's Privacy Filter

How to build scalable web apps with OpenAI's Privacy Filter - Document Privacy Explorer: drop in a PDF or DOCX, read the document back with every PII span highlighted in place. - Image Anonymizer: upload an image, get it back with redacted black bars over names, emails, and account numbers.

The PR you would have opened yourself

The PR you would have opened yourself TL;DR We provide a Skill and a test harness to help port language models from transformers to mlx-lm, so they become (almost) instantly available the moment they are added to transformers. The Skill is designed to support contributors and reviewers as an aide, not an automation. We explain why we did it, how, and comment about how to meaningfully contribute to open source in the age of agents. The advent of code agents In 2026, code agents started to actually work. What used to be auto-completion at the side of your editor turned into a system that one-shots reasonable solutions from brief specifications. The generated code usually works out of the box, covers what you asked for, and makes reasonable assumptions about details you didn't specify. This is great. As Jensen Huang puts…

Any Custom Frontend with Gradio's Backend

gradio.Server: Any Custom Frontend with Gradio's Backend gr.HTML : building rich, interactive frontends entirely inside Gradio using custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. That unlocked a lot. But what if that's not enough? What if you want to build with your own frontend framework entirely like React, Svelte, or even plain HTML/JS, while still benefiting from Gradio's queuing system, API infrastructure, MCP support, and ZeroGPU on Spaces? That's exactly the problem gradio.Server solves. And it changes what's possible with Gradio and Hugging Face Spaces. What We Wanted to Build Text Behind Image : an editor where you upload a photo, the background gets removed using an ML model, and then you place stylized text between the foreground subject and the background. The text appears to sit behind the person or object in the image. This needs: - A drag-and-drop canvas with…

ReAct Agent: Architecture, Implementation, and Tradeoffs

Some tasks can't be solved in a single LLM call. When a question requires looking up data, processing it, and making a decision based on the result, a one-shot response will either hallucinate the answer or give a shallow one. ReAct agents solve this with an iterative reasoning loop. Instead of trying to answer everything at once, the agent breaks the problem down step by step: think about what's needed, call a tool, observe the result, and decide what to do next. Each cycle grounds the model's reasoning in real data before moving forward. This Reasoning + Acting pattern turns opaque agent behavior into something you can follow, debug, and audit - every thought and action is visible in the execution trace. Here's how the ReAct pattern works, when to use it over other agent approaches, and how to build…

LLM Tool Calling: How It Works and How To Implement It

Large language models (LLMs) are brilliant reasoners. But without a way to interact with the world, they’re essentially locked behind a glass wall— they have enough knowledge to explain a refund policy in perfect detail but lack the hands to actually trigger one. For developers, this disconnect between reasoning and action is what separates sophisticated chatbots from production-grade agents. LLM tool calling offers an escape from the training-data silo, allowing models to move from passive text generation to active system participation. But the real engineering challenge isn’t just getting the model to output a valid JSON or a tool call — it’s building the orchestration, security, and observability required to ensure those calls don’t fail in a production environment. Here’s a rundown of what LLM tool calling is and how it works at scale. What LLM tool calling means? LLM…

Human-in-the-Loop vs. Human-on-the-Loop: When To Use Each System

There are three main ways people control the quality of AI systems: human-in-the-loop (HITL), human-on-the-loop (HOTL), and hybrid systems using both. These frameworks determine how systems make decisions and where humans intervene. Each approach affects scalability, risk tolerance, and operational expenses. This oversight spectrum gives you a wide range of potential workflows depending on the task, whether your team needs tight human-driven control or occasional check-ins. In this guide, learn the difference between human-in-the-loop versus human-on-the-loop. Plus, discover when to use each approach and how to implement it in your work. What’s human-in-the-Loop (HITL)? HITL is a process where AI performs tasks but humans control final decisions, preventing the system from executing certain actions without approval. This is a synchronous control pattern. The workflow stops at a decision gate until a human provides a required signal. For example, AI processes…

How to evaluate the performance of AI agents?

Traditional software testing is straightforward: you give input X and expect output Y. If the function returns the wrong value, the test fails. LLM-based agents don't work that way. They're non-deterministic which means the same prompt can produce different outputs across runs. They operate over multiple steps, making decisions about which tools to call, what parameters to pass, and how to interpret results. An agent can complete an execution without errors and still hallucinate facts, miss the user's intent, or take unnecessary steps. Classical testing may not catch problematic outputs produced by an AI Agent. When building AI Agents, you face three main evaluation challenges: - You're evaluating trajectories, instead of just outputs. An agent might give the correct final answer but call the wrong tools, use the wrong parameters, or take five steps when one would do. If you…

We need re-learn what AI agent development tools are in 2026

This article was written by Andrew Green, technical writer and industry analyst. We pay Andrew, but he refuses to write anything else but his own opinion. The big boys entered the market, OpenClaw appropriated the MCP security strategy, and everyone started vibe coding but only if they already knew how to code. It really feels like 2025 was the year of agents, mainly because the industry came to a consensus about how we expect an agent to behave. That and because we found we can bypass context window sizes by spawning sub-agents. When we first wrote the Enterprise AI agent development tools, we focused a lot on the building blocks of writing agents, such as RAG, memory, tools, and evaluations. One year later, all these capabilities appear to have been commoditized to some degree. We now expect most vendors to…

RAG System Architecture: Components, How To Implement, Challenges, and Best Practices

A simple retrieval augmented generation architecture (RAG) setup usually works fine with a few documents and a basic retriever, but those setups fall apart quickly once you try to run them in production. Small issues that don’t matter much in controlled settings — slightly off chunks or slow lookups — turn into high latency, dangerous AI hallucinations, and spiraling API costs in real-world use. In this guide, we’ll break down the RAG system architecture components and the trade-offs to consider when implementing production-ready RAG architecture, challenges, and best practices. What is RAG architecture? RAG architecture refers to how you design your retrieval system: which embedding models and vector types to use, how to chunk and index documents, and whether to add reranking. This is different from the RAG pipeline (the step-by-step data ingestion) and RAG application (the complete end-user solution).…

How to Accelerate Protein Structure Prediction at Proteome-Scale

Proteins rarely function in isolation as individual monomers. Most biological processes are governed by proteins interacting with other proteins, forming protein complexes whose structures are described in the hierarchy of protein structure as the quaternary representation. This represents one level of complexity up from tertiary representations, the 3D structure of monomers, which are commonly known since the emergence of AlphaFold2 and the creation of the Protein Data Bank. Structural information for the vast majority of complexes remains unavailable. While the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database (AFDB), jointly developed by Google DeepMind and EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), transformed access to monomeric protein structures, interaction-aware structural biology at the proteome scale has remained a bottleneck with unique challenges: - Massive combinatorial interaction space - High computational cost for multiple sequence alignment (MSA) generation and protein folding - Inference scaling across millions of…

Our commitment to community safety

Our commitment to community safety Mass shootings, threats against public officials, bombing attempts, and attacks on communities and individuals are an unacceptable and grave reality in today’s world. These incidents are a reminder of how real the threat of violence is—and how quickly violent intent can move from words to action. People may also bring these moments and feelings into ChatGPT. They may ask questions about the news, try to understand what happened, express fear or anger, or talk about violence in ways that are fictional, historical, political, personal, or potentially dangerous. We work to train ChatGPT to recognize the difference—and to draw lines when a conversation starts to move toward threats, potential harm to others, or real-world planning. We’re sharing what we do to minimize uses of our services in furtherance of violence or other harm: how our models…

An open-source spec for orchestration: Symphony

An open-source spec for Codex orchestration: Symphony By Alex Kotliarskyi, Victor Zhu, and Zach Brock Six months ago, while working on an internal productivity tool, our team made a controversial (at the time) decision: we’d build our repo with no human-written code. Every line in our project repository had to be generated by Codex. To make that work, we redesigned our engineering workflow from the ground up. We built an agent-friendly repository, invested heavily in automated tests and guardrails, and treated Codex as a full-fledged teammate. We documented that journey in our previous blog post on harness engineering. And it worked, but then we ran into the next bottleneck: context switching. To solve this new problem, we built a system called Symphony. Symphony(opens in a new window) is an agent orchestrator that turns a project-management board like Linear into a…

Our principles

AI has the potential to significantly improve many aspects of society. This technology, like others before, will give people more capability and agency; what people will be able to do with AI will dwarf what people could do with steam engines or electricity. We envision a world with widespread flourishing at a level that is currently difficult to imagine, and a world in which individual potential, agency, and fulfillment significantly increase. A lot of the things we’ve only let ourselves dream about in sci-fi could become reality, and most people could live more meaningful lives than most are able to today. But this outcome is not guaranteed. Power in the future can either be held by a small handful of companies using and controlling superintelligence, or it can be held in a decentralized way by people. We believe the latter…

How to get started with Codex

How to get started with Codex Tips to set up Codex, create your first project, and start completing real tasks. Start by downloading the Codex desktop app and signing in with your ChatGPT account. Once you open Codex, create your first thread. A thread is like a chat in ChatGPT: a space where you go back and forth with Codex to accomplish a task. You can create a standalone thread, but most of the time you’ll want to work inside a project. A project is connected to a folder on your computer: Tip: To keep things simple, create a folder on your computer named Codex. Inside that Codex folder, you can have a separate folder for each project. If you want Codex to work with specific files for a project, just drag them into the folder. If not, you can…

What is Codex?

What is Codex? Understand what Codex is and how it fits into your work Codex is an AI agent that you can delegate real work to. ChatGPT is great for asking questions, brainstorming, and drafting in conversation.

The next phase of enterprise AI

I just wrapped my first 90 days with OpenAI and have had the opportunity to meet with hundreds of our customers. What has struck me most is their immense sense of urgency and readiness. I’ve spent my entire career at the intersection of technology and enterprise transformation, and yet, I have never seen this level of conviction spread so quickly and consistently across industries. These leaders recognize AI as the most consequential shift of their lifetime, and they’re asking us how to reinvent their companies around it. I also saw that conviction reflected in our business this quarter. Building on our consumer strength, enterprise now makes up more than 40% of our revenue, and is on track to reach parity with consumer by the end of 2026. Codex just hit 3 million weekly active users, our APIs process more than…

Inside our approach to the Model Spec

Inside our approach to the Model Spec As AI systems become more capable and widely used, we need a clear public framework for how they should behave. At OpenAI, we believe AI should be fair, safe, and freely available so that more people can use it to solve hard problems, create opportunities, and benefit in areas like health, science, education, work, and everyday life. We believe that democratized access to AI is the best path forward: not AI whose benefits or control are concentrated in the hands of a few, but AI that more people can access, understand, and help shape. That is a core reason why the OpenAI Model Spec exists. The Model Spec(opens in a new window) is our formal framework for model behavior. It defines how we want models to follow instructions, resolve conflicts, respect user freedom,…

Generating State-of-the-Art GEMMs with TorchInductor’s CuteDSL backend

Introduction TorchInductor currently supports three autotuning backends for matrix multiplications: Triton, CUTLASS (C++), and cuBLAS. This post describes the integration of CuteDSL as a fourth backend, the technical motivation for the work, and the performance results observed so far. The kernel-writing DSL space has gained significant momentum, with Triton, Helion, Gluon, CuTile, and CuteDSL each occupying a different point in the abstraction-performance tradeoff. When evaluating whether to integrate a new backend into TorchInductor, we apply three criteria: (1) the integration does not impose a large maintenance burden on our team, or there is a long-term committed effort from the vendor; (2) it does not regress compile time or benchmarking time relative to existing backends; and (3) it delivers better performance on target workloads. CuteDSL satisfies all three. NVIDIA is actively developing CuteDSL and provides optimized kernel templates, which limits the…

How to make remarkable videos with Seedance 2.0

How to make remarkable videos with Seedance 2.0 Run Seedance 2.0 AI video used to be utterly bad. (We’ve all seen Will Smith eat spaghetti more times than we can count, so I’ll spare you.) Last year, however, we really began to see AI video take off with front-runners like Google’s Veo 3 series and Kling from Kuaishou. With each new model release, we inched toward improvements with prompt adherence, audio integration, and solving the “AI look.” Seedance 2.0 is the largest step change we’ve seen in months. You can make movies with this thing. A catastrophic collision between two massive space stations in low Earth orbit. Metal shears apart in slow motion as the stations grind into each other, sending a hailstorm of debris spiraling outward. Entire modules crumple like tin cans. Pressurized compartments blow out in violent bursts…

GPT-5.5 prompting guide

25th April 2026 - Link Blog GPT-5.5 prompting guide. Now that GPT-5.5 is available in the API, OpenAI have released a wealth of useful tips on how best to prompt the new model. Here's a neat trick they recommend for applications that might spend considerable time thinking before returning a user-visible response: Before any tool calls for a multi-step task, send a short user-visible update that acknowledges the request and states the first step. Keep it to one or two sentences. I've already noticed their Codex app doing this, and it does make longer running tasks feel less like the model has crashed. OpenAI suggest running the following in Codex to upgrade your existing code using advice embedded in their openai-docs skill: $openai-docs migrate this project to gpt-5.5 The upgrade guide the coding agent will follow is this one, which…

DeepSeek V4 in vLLM: Efficient Long-context Attention Apr 24, 2026 · 17 min read A first-principles walkthrough of DeepSeek V4's long-context attention, and how we implemented it in vLLM.

DeepSeek V4 in vLLM: Efficient Long-context Attention We are excited to announce that vLLM now supports the DeepSeek V4 family of models (deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro and deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Flash ). These models feature an efficient long-context attention mechanism, purpose-built for tasks involving up to one million tokens. While the new attention design may appear intricate on first reading, its underlying principles are straightforward once examined systematically. This blog post is organized into three sections: - Quickstart guide for serving DeepSeek V4 on vLLM - First-principles explanation of DeepSeek V4's new architectural design - Overview of our implementation approach and optimization challenges for this model on vLLM: hybrid KV cache, kernel fusion, and disaggregated serving. This represents our initial release of model support, and further optimizations are actively underway. We hope the technical explanation that follows can help the open-source community understand both the attention…

Next-Level Inference: Why Your Single-Node vLLM Setup Needs Prefill-Decode Disaggregation TL;DR: Prefill and decode fight over the same GPUs, causing ITL spikes under load. We show how to disaggregate them on a single 8-GPU MI300X node using AMD's MORI-IO connector — achieving 2.5x higher goodput compared to standard collocated serving on the same 8 GPUs, with stable token generation. Benchmark uses Qwen3-235B-A22B-FP8 at 8 req/s with 2000-token prompts and 1000-token outputs — see Table 3 and Experimental Details for full configuration. Introduction In our previous exploration of MoE optimization [1], we walked through distributing a massive model across an 8-GPU AMD Instinct MI300X node using Tensor, Pipeline, Data, and Expert Parallelism. In this blog, we show how Prefill-Decode disaggregation — enabled by AMD's MORI-IO — addresses this bottleneck, delivering higher goodput and more predictable performance without requiring a multi-node cluster.…

Elon Musk Testifies That He Started OpenAI to Prevent a ‘Terminator Outcome’

Elon Musk and Sam Altman appeared in a federal courtroom together for the first time on Tuesday as they fight over OpenAI’s decade-long evolution and what it means for the company’s future. The trial in Musk’s lawsuit against Altman could result in financial damages and, more significantly, governance changes at OpenAI that may complicate its plans for an initial public offering as soon as this year. As the first witness on the stand, Musk immediately sought to frame his case as more than just about OpenAI. Siding with Altman “will give license to looting every charity in America” and shake the “entire foundation of charitable giving,” Musk told a panel of nine jurors advising US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers on how to rule. Musk has been concerned about computers becoming smarter than people “since he was a young man…

At 'AI Coachella,' Stanford Students Line Up to Learn From Silicon Valley Royalty

As thousands of influencers descended on southern California earlier this month for the annual Coachella Music Festival, a very Silicon Valley program dubbed “AI Coachella” was taking shape a few hundred miles north in Palo Alto. The class, CS 153, is one of Stanford’s buzziest offerings this semester, and like the music festival, it features a star-studded lineup of celebrities—in this case, not pop artists, but Big Tech CEOs. The course is co-taught by Anjney Midha, a former Andreessen Horowitz general partner, and Michael Abbott, Apple’s former VP of engineering for cloud services. The list of guest lecturers reads like a Signal group chat many VCs would pay to join: OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, AMD CEO Lisa Su, Anthropic philosopher Amanda Askell, and White House Senior Policy Advisor for AI Sriram Krishnan,…
