PKU, Tsinghua and Alibaba open-source SparkDiffusion: 265x single-GPU video
Open-source SparkDiffusion pushes 720P-14B video generation to 265x on one RTX 5090 via sparse attention, distillation and FP8; VBench-2.0 drops 0.5 points.
Claude computes a nine-loop scattering amplitude, breaking a three-year-old physics record
In a guest post published by Anthropic, physicist Matt von Hippel reports that Claude, running largely unsupervised for days on Claude Science, computed the nine-loop six-particle amplitude in planar N=4 super-Yang-Mills. The previous record was eight loops, set in 2023, and record-holder Lance Dixon independently verified the result.
DeepSeek details DSec, the sandbox platform behind its agent training: about 3 million sandboxes a day per unit
A DeepSeek technical report on arXiv describes DeepSeek Elastic Compute (DSec), its platform for large-scale agent training and evaluation. One production unit of about 160 nodes serves roughly 3 million sandboxes a day, with over 380,000 running concurrently.
