What is MAI-1-preview?

The MAI-1 Preview represents the first instance of Microsoft AI's foundation model, which has been meticulously crafted in-house and employs a mixture-of-experts architecture for improved efficiency. This model has been rigorously trained using approximately 15,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs, enabling it to effectively understand user commands and generate pertinent text answers to frequently asked questions, serving as a prototype for the future capabilities of Copilot. Currently available for public evaluation on LMArena, the MAI-1 Preview offers an early insight into the platform’s trajectory, with intentions to roll out specific text-based applications in Copilot in the coming weeks to gather user feedback and refine its functionality. Microsoft underscores its dedication to weaving together its proprietary models, partnerships, and innovations from the open-source community to enhance user experiences through millions of unique interactions daily. By adopting this forward-thinking strategy, Microsoft showcases its commitment to the continuous improvement of its AI solutions and responsiveness to user needs. This proactive approach indicates that Microsoft is not only focused on current technologies but is also actively shaping the future landscape of AI development.

What is Inkling?

Inkling is an open-weights multimodal AI model from Thinking Machines built to support customization, agentic workflows, coding, reasoning, vision, audio, and enterprise AI use cases. The model is a Mixture-of-Experts transformer with 975 billion total parameters, 41 billion active parameters, 256 routed experts per MoE layer, and six routed experts active per token. It supports context windows up to 1 million tokens and was pretrained on 45 trillion tokens across text, images, audio, and video. Inkling is designed as a broad foundation model rather than a narrowly optimized benchmark model, giving it balanced capabilities across reasoning, coding, factuality, instruction following, vision, audio, tool use, and safety. Its controllable thinking effort lets developers adjust how much computation and generated reasoning the model uses, helping teams balance quality, latency, and cost for different production needs. The model can run agentic coding tasks, use tools, create web apps, generate polished multi-page artifacts, reason over long contexts, and work through iterative refinement loops. For multimodal tasks, Inkling can process images, answer questions about visual content, transcribe and reason over audio, follow spoken instructions, and combine visual reasoning with code-based tools such as Python. Thinking Machines trained Inkling for calibration, instruction following, factual reliability, refusal behavior, and safety across multiple modalities, including evaluations for dangerous capabilities and human-AI threat vectors. Inkling is available on Tinker for fine-tuning, with 64K and 256K context options, an Inkling Playground for testing, cookbook recipes, and support for multimodal post-training workflows. Its full weights are available on Hugging Face, and deployment support is available through APIs and infrastructure partners such as TogetherAI, Fireworks, Modal, Databricks, Baseten, SGLang, vLLM, llama.cpp, and transformers.
