NVIDIA and Mistral AI Bring 10x Faster Inference for the Mistral 3 Family on GB200 NVL72 GPU Systems
NVIDIA announced today a significant expansion of its strategic collaboration with Mistral AI. This partnership coincides with the release of the new Mistral 3 frontier open model family, marking a pivotal moment where hardware acceleration and open-source model architecture have converged to redefine performance benchmarks. This collaboration is a massive leap in inference speed: the new models now run up to 10x faster on NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 systems compared to the previous generation H200 systems. This breakthrough unlocks unprecedented efficiency for enterprise-grade AI, promising to solve the latency and cost bottlenecks that have historically plagued the large-scale deployment of reasoning models...

Google DeepMind Researchers Introduce Evo-Memory Benchmark and ReMem Framework for Experience Reuse in LLM Agents
Evo Memory introduces a streaming benchmark and agent framework that tests whether LLM agents can actually learn from continuous task streams by reusing and refining past experience, not just recalling dialogue history. It restructures existing math, QA, tool use and interactive environments into sequential tasks, then compares memory modules like ExpRAG and the ReMem action, think, refine memory loop, showing consistent gains in exact match, success and step efficiency without retraining the base models.

[Time Sensitive] MiniMax - Developer Ambassador Program Application (Sponsored)
MiniMax has opened applications for its Developer Ambassador Program, aimed at independent ML and LLM developers who are already building with MiniMax models. Ambassadors get access to upgraded or free plans, early access to new releases, direct channels to the product and R&D teams, and visibility for their work through the MiniMax community and events Check out the details.
MiniMax-M2: Technical Deep Dive into Interleaved Thinking for Agentic Coding Workflows
MiniMax-M2 is a new Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model designed specifically for agentic coding workflows that claims to cut costs by over 90% compared to Claude 3.5 Sonnet while doubling inference speed. The model distinguishes itself with an "Interleaved Thinking" architecture—a dynamic Plan → Act → Reflect loop that allows it to self-correct and preserve state during complex tasks rather than relying on a linear, front-loaded plan. With 230B total parameters (but only 10B active per token), MiniMax-M2 aims to deliver the reasoning depth of a large model with the low latency required for real-time tools like Cursor and Cline, offering a significant efficiency upgrade for developers building autonomous agents.
