Jev is Vercel’s fastest-adopted AI model ever

TechCrunch 1 day ago 31 ● 4 sources

Vercel reported that TypeSafe AI’s Jev became the fastest adopted AI model it has tracked, based on usage through its AI gateway. Within two weeks of Jev’s September 15 limited release, 35% of paid teams were using it, nearly double the reach of Sonnet 5.5. The result is clearer evidence that Jev’s launch translated into real demand, while open-source models now drive over 70% of tokens on Vercel’s gateway alongside growing spending on frontier labs.

Why a Chinese AI Lab’s Product Lead Thinks AGI is “Inevitable”

ChinaTalk 1 day ago 42

Ant Ling product lead Richard Bian said AGI is inevitable, using a comparison to the 15th-century Age of Discovery and pointing to open-model security learning from the Hugging Face incident as evidence that progress keeps surfacing issues and fixes. He cited that Ant Ling’s latest model, Ling 3.1 Flash, was open-sourced on October 14 with 560B parameters and up to a 1M-token context window. The discussion shifts from obsessing over leaderboards toward improving evaluations, combining open- and closed-weight approaches, and treating AGI progress as an early-stage trajectory where principles and human-in-the-loop matter.
