Recently, a new AI model called "Quasar Alpha" quietly launched, attracting significant attention from the tech community and developers. Reportedly launched by an unnamed model lab, it's described as their first "stealth" model and a pre-release version of an upcoming long-context base model. Quasar Alpha quickly became a hot topic in the industry due to its impressive 1 million token context length, optimized encoding capabilities, and free and open access, pushing the boundaries of AI technology.

Google Research recently announced the innovative 'Titans' series model architecture, achieving a groundbreaking 2 million token context length through bionic design, with plans to open-source related technologies in the future. The core innovation of this architecture is the introduction of a Deep Neural Long-Term Memory Module, inspired by the human memory system. Titans cleverly combines the rapid response capability of short-term memory with the persistence characteristics of long-term memory, while utilizing an attention mechanism to handle immediate context, forming an efficient information processing system.

On December 18th, at the Volcano Engine FORCE Power Conference, Volcano Engine President Tan Dai unveiled the new Doubao Visual Understanding Model. This model processes both text and image-related information simultaneously, providing more accurate answers. The new model excels in content recognition, understanding, and reasoning capabilities, featuring more nuanced visual description abilities, which brings stronger intelligent processing capabilities to enterprise users. Tan Dai revealed at the conference that the Doubao Visual Understanding Model has achieved significant technological breakthroughs and has also seen a dramatic reduction in pricing.

In the current field of artificial intelligence, precise control over language models has become crucial for developers and data scientists. Anthropic's Claude language models provide users with numerous possibilities, but effectively managing token usage remains a challenge. To address this issue, Anthropic has launched a brand new token counting API aimed at providing deeper insights into token usage, thereby enhancing the efficiency and control of interactions with language models. Tokens play a role in language models.

Zhipu AI announced today that since being showcased at KDD 2024, its flagship language model GLM-4-Plus and the first dynamic video understanding model GLM-4V-Plus have received widespread recognition, achieving outstanding results on authoritative evaluation lists, breaking the monopoly of foreign models in the top three and positioning themselves at the international elite level.

Magic, a startup focused on generative AI programming, has announced the completion of $320 million in funding, bringing its total financing to nearly $465 million. This round of funding was led by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, with participation from several well-known investors. Magic's core technology, the Long-Term Memory Network (LTM), can handle vast amounts of data and avoid bias when generating code. Its latest model, LTM-2-mini, can process 100 million tokens, equivalent to 10 million lines of code or 750 novels. In partnership with Google Cloud, it plans to establish two '

Google has launched the Gemini API's Gemini1.5Flash free plan, offering 1.5 billion free tokens every day, including 15 requests per minute, 1 million tokens per minute, and 1 million tokens per hour of context caching services, along with fully free tuning capabilities. This initiative aims to lower the barriers for developers to utilize AI technology, supporting the development of innovative applications. For small and medium-sized development teams, this will significantly reduce costs and provide convenience in R&D. This move is expected to attract more developers, driving growth.
