GoKawiilNew AI lab releases Inkling 2 Small, a 594B-parameter mixture-of-experts model
The developer unveiled Inkling 2 Small, a Mixture-of-Experts model with 594 billion total parameters and 17 billion active, supporting image inputs and variable effort levels. The model scored 31 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, a notable jump from the company's prior generation, with gains attributed to more efficient pre-training and a unified reinforcement learning run. It is currently accessible only through the Tinker platform with closed weights, ahead of a planned Apache 2.0 open-weight release next week pending safety testing.
