Apple does not plan to refresh any Macs with updated M5 chips in 2025, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Updated MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models are now planned for the first half of 2026. Gurman previously said that Apple would debut the M5 ‌MacBook Pro‌ models in late 2025, but his newest report suggests that Apple is "considering" pushing them back to 2026. Apple is now said to be "internally targeting" a launch early next year. The current M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max ‌MacBook Pro‌ mode

How attention sinks keep language models stable

news.ycombinator.com Guangxuan Xiao 2025-11-24 16:53:10

We discovered why language models catastrophically fail on long conversations: when old tokens are removed to save memory, models produce complete gibberish. We found models dump massive attention onto the first few tokens as "attention sinks"—places to park unused attention since softmax requires weights to sum to 1. Our solution, StreamingLLM, simply keeps these first 4 tokens permanently while sliding the window for everything else, enabling stable processing of 4 million+ tokens instead of j

I want everything local — no cloud, no remote code execution. That’s what a friend said. That one-line requirement, albeit simple, would need multiple things to work in tandem to make it happen.

FLUX.1-Krea and the Rise of Opinionated Models

AI-generated images have a general look to them. Shiny, bright, waxy-skin, and over-use of bokeh. From Midjourney to Gemini to OpenAI, the AI Look is consistent. Enthusiasts and professionals wrestle with prompts and even fine-tune these models to tamp down the AI smell, with varying degrees of success.

GPT-5: Key characteristics, pricing and system card

GPT-5: Key characteristics, pricing and model card I’ve had preview access to the new GPT-5 model family for the past two weeks (see related video) and have been using GPT-5 as my daily-driver. It’s my new favorite model. It’s still an LLM—it’s not a dramatic departure from what we’ve had before—but it rarely screws up and generally feels competent or occasionally impressive at the kinds of things I like to use models for.

GPT-5, which was released Thursday, is OpenAI’s first “unified” AI model and combines the reasoning abilities of its o-series of models with the fast responses of its GPT series. The next-generation model signals a new era for ChatGPT — and its creator, OpenAI — pointing to OpenAI’s broader ambitions to develop AI systems that are more like agents than chatbots.

OpenAI just released its first ever open-source large language models, called gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b. You can talk to them here. Are they good models? Well, that depends on what you’re looking for. They’re great at some benchmarks, of course (OpenAI would never have released them otherwise) but weirdly bad at others, like SimpleQA.

Whereas o1 was a major technological advancement, GPT-5 is, above all else, a refined product. During a press briefing, Sam Altman compared GPT-5 to Apple’s Retina displays, and it’s an apt analogy, though perhaps not in the way that he intended. Much like an unprecedentedly crisp screen, GPT-5 will furnish a more pleasant and seamless user experience. That’s not nothing, but it falls far short of the transformative AI future that Altman has spent much of the past year hyping. In the briefing, A
