Thinking Machines Lab, co-founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, has launched Inkling, a new open-weights multimodal model with 975 billion parameters. While Inkling surpasses other open-weights models from the US on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, it still lags behind leading Chinese open models in certain benchmarks. The model is priced at $1.87 per million input tokens and is positioned as a foundational model for fine-tuning. AI
IMPACT Sets a new benchmark for US open-weights models, potentially influencing future model development and fine-tuning strategies.
