AI and the Future of Cybersecurity: Why Openness Matters

Following the announcement of Mythos and Project Glasswing, institutions throughout the world are grappling with the potential dawn of a new era of cybersecurity. In this post, we break down the current situation, discuss the role of openness, and situate the future of cybersecurity within the larger AI ecosystem. What is Mythos? Mythos is a “frontier AI model”, a large language model (LLM) that can be used to process software code (among many other things). This follows a general trend […]

QIMMA قِمّة ⛰: A Quality-First Arabic LLM Leaderboard

QIMMA validates benchmarks before evaluating models, ensuring reported scores reflect genuine Arabic language capability in LLMs. If you’ve been tracking Arabic LLM evaluation, you’ve probably noticed a growing tension: the number of benchmarks and leaderboards is expanding rapidly, but are we actually measuring what we think we’re measuring? We built QIMMA قمّة (Arabic for “summit”), to answer that question systematically. Instead of aggregating existing Arabic benchmarks as-is and running models on them, we applied a rigorous quality validation pipeline before […]

How to Use Transformers.js in a Chrome Extension

We recently released a Transformers.js demo browser extension powered by Gemma 4 E2B to help users navigate the web. While building it, we ran into several practical observations about Manifest V3 runtimes, model loading, and messaging that are worth sharing. Who this is for This guide is for developers who want to run local AI features in a Chrome extension with Transformers.js under Manifest V3 constraints. By the end, you will have the same architecture used in this project: a […]

DeepSeek-V4: a million-token context that agents can actually use

DeepSeek released V4 today. Two MoE checkpoints are on the Hub: DeepSeek-V4-Pro at 1.6T total parameters with 49B active, and DeepSeek-V4-Flash at 284B total with 13B active. Both have a 1M-token context window. The benchmark numbers are competitive, but not SOTA. It doesn’t matter. The real innovation is how DeepSeek v4 is designed for efficient large context length support, and hence as one of the best candidates for agentic tasks. Focusing on long running agentic workloads. Running a frontier open […]

Gemma 4 VLA Demo on Jetson Orin Nano Super

Talk to Gemma 4, and she’ll decide on her own if she needs to look through the webcam to answer you. All running locally on a Jetson Orin Nano Super. You speak → Parakeet STT → Gemma 4 → [Webcam if needed] → Kokoro TTS → Speaker Press SPACE to record, SPACE again to stop. This is a simple VLA: the model decides on its own whether to act based on the context of what you asked, no keyword triggers, […]

Altair: Declarative Charts With Python

There’s a moment many data analysts know well: you have a new dataset and a clear question, and you open a notebook only to find yourself writing boilerplate axis and figure setup before you’ve even looked at the data. Matplotlib gives you fine-grained control, but that control comes with a cost. Altair takes a completely different approach to data visualization in Python. Instead of scripting every visual detail, you describe what your data means. This includes specifying which column goes […]
