A slew of compelling #openweight models have been released, with #DeepSeek V4 Flash, #GLM 5.2, #MiniMax M3, and #NVIDIA #Nemotron 3 Ultra emerging as the most significant. These models offer various advantages, including #cost effectiveness, #planning quality, #multimodal capabilities, and U.S.-built deployment options. Each model excels in specific areas, making them suitable for different use cases and organisational needs. https://openrouter.ai/blog/insights/the-open-weight-models-that-matter-june-2026/?AIagents.at #AIagent #AI #ML #NLP #LLM #GenAI

Hmm. We have seen how that works in the past. An incoming Tory (or even Nu Labour) government effectively gift the share (which BTW will be not generating any revenue). Screw Thames Water and the shareholders who have expatriated vast sums and nationalise the bastards. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/jul/21/thames-water-investors-golden-share-nationalisation-andy-burnham #ThamesWater #Water #UkPol #Pollution #Cost #Grift #RipOff

Is AI Profitable Yet?, https://isaiprofitable.com/ No. It doesn’t count neither the environmental, nor the social impacts. #ai #cost

Fixes 31 gigatonnes of #CarbonDioxide a year. Reduces #cost of #farming. Improves #yield. (Not in the article: needs less #water). But as usual, you have to ask: WHO is it that stands to gain from doing this, WHO stands to lose? Big Ag, Big Seed, Big Fertiliser, and the industries around that have a lot to lose. And they are still very powerful. How to get them to the table as partners not adversaries? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jul/04/improving-farming-soil-carbon-store-global-heating-target

The #AIrace is shifting from building bigger models to creating smarter, more #costeffectivesystems. Companies are now prioritising finding the best model for #specifictasks, considering factors like #cost, #data, and #environment. This shift is driven by the increasing capability and affordability of #openweightmodels, which are becoming a viable alternative to proprietary models from major #AI labs. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/10/the-ai-race-is-shifting-from-bigger-models-to-cheaper-smarter-systems.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news

I've talked about some of this on Mastodon before, such as creating #coroplast and #blackout material #WindowBlocks to prevent the heat from our long 53°N summer days getting into my unit (circa 2021) or adding thermal window film to reduce heat even more (circa 2025) without simultaneously creating a dark and depressing #bunker-effect for the entire summer. Doing all of this required various materials, time and of course, money. While all these (and other) mitigations were experiemented with and created/installed over several years, which spread out the up-front cost, the irony is not lost on me that these approaches have culmulatively cost as much as as least two in-window #AirConditoners would. 🙄 9x #heat #ExtremeHeat #mitigation #HeatMitigation #LifeSafety #cost
