Maintenance in progress

nvidia is doing two things at once: building a nemotron 4 model of at least one trillion parameters to compete directly with openai, anthropic and google, and shipping a 30b mixture-of-experts model with only 3b active parameters plus a router for agent workflows. xai released grok bot, always-on cloud agents that sign into websites and apps without the user's device running. tencent researchers separately claim agent training data can be generated for about five cents a task. the industry is converging on cheap, persistent, autonomous agents while a chip vendor moves up the stack into frontier model competition.
