++ AI OVERVIEW ++
Today's AI landscape is being reshaped by a critical architectural breakthrough: NVlabs' Gated DeltaNet-2, which decouples the erase and write operations in linear attention, has quickly garnered attention from key researchers like Jeremy Howard. This official PyTorch implementation promises to address a fundamental limitation of current linear attention models, potentially unlocking more efficient and expressive sequence modeling. Meanwhile, in the practical tools space, the Apple TV and AirPlay client library `pyatv` saw a significant star surge, driven by a star from Max Woolf, highlighting ongoing developer interest in bridging Apple's ecosystem with open-source automation. The day's trends underscore a clear split between cutting-edge research in model efficiency and the steady demand for robust, real-world integration libraries.

Official PyTorch Implementation of Gated DeltaNet-2: Decoupling Erase and Write in Linear Attention

Starred byjph00|[LLM][Infra]
Gated DeltaNet-2 introduces a novel linear attention mechanism that decouples erase and write operations, improving memory management in recurrent neural networks. Built on the DeltaNet architecture, it achieves competitive performance with standard attention while maintaining linear complexity, making it suitable for long-sequence tasks.

I think people don't realize why Gemini Omni is different than other video AIs. It is fully multimodal, so it can edit video natively, too I took the famous "train " movie from 1896 & made it a bullet train, LEGO, added a time traveler, a centipede, muppets... (note the reflections and shadows?)

Its funny how much the whole "strawberry" thing, which turned out to be o1-preview & Reasoners, was dismissed as overhyped at launch when it is clear in retrospect that it was way underhyped. A direct line from models unable to do basic math to solving unresolved math problems in 18 months.
