Alibaba has announced Marco-o1, a large language model (LLM) designed to tackle both conventional and open-ended problem-solving tasks.

OpenAI and other leading AI companies are developing new training techniques to overcome limitations of current methods. Addressing unexpected delays and complications in the development of larger, more powerful language models, these fresh techniques focus on human-like behaviour to teach algorithms to ‘think.

Ai2 is releasing OLMo 2, a family of open-source language models that advances the democratisation of AI and narrows the gap between open and proprietary solutions.
