How to reverse engineer AI models: a study on Google Photos (skyld.io)
Google Photos is one of the most widely-used photo management applications globally, pre-installed on almost every Android device running Google Mobile Services (GMS). It is appreciated by users because it offers powerful features like “Magic Eraser” and advanced AI-powered photo editing tools. Of course, Google doesn’t open-source its AI models to keep its competitive edge.

voyage-3-large (voyageai.com)
TL;DR – Introducing voyage-3-large, a new state-of-the-art general-purpose and multilingual embedding model that ranks first across eight evaluated domains spanning 100 datasets, including law, finance, and code. It outperforms OpenAI-v3-large and Cohere-v3-English by an average of 9.74% and 20.71%, respectively. Enabled by Matryoshka learning and quantization-aware training, voyage-3-large supports smaller dimensions and int8 and binary quantization that dramatically reduce vectorDB costs with minimal impact on retrieval quality.

DeepSeek R1: Don't Put All Your Eggs in One LLM Basket (notdiamond.ai)
Over the last week, the world has been on fire because of Deepseek’s new R1 reasoning model. But the stock predictions surrounding R1 don’t matter, and neither do the conspiracy theories. Even the model itself—while impressive—doesn’t really matter. The reason DeepSeek R1 really matters is because it means the number of frontier AI models is about to explode.

Notes on the New Deepseek v3 (composio.dev)
Deepseek released their flagship model, v3, a 607B mixture-of-experts model with 37B active parameters. Currently, it is the best open-source model, beating Llama 3.1 405b, Qwen, and Mistral. It is on par with OpenAI GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet from the benchmarks. The first model performs on par and better at some tasks than the big closed models.
