AI Rebellion
Hugging Face Calls Out DeepSeek with Open-Source AI Plan 🖕

Hugging Face isn’t here for DeepSeek’s 'black box' vibes.

The team is diving into Open-R1, a bold bid to recreate and open-source DeepSeek's proprietary R1 reasoning model. DeepSeek’s R1 is outperforming even OpenAI’s top models, but it lacks crucial transparency. Hugging Face is building their own version with help from the open-source community.

Whether you see it as AI for the people or just a middle finger to AI gatekeeping, this project has already sparked massive interest on GitHub and could rewrite the playbook for reasoning models.

Humanoid Safety Szn
Why Humanoid Robots Are Scaring OSHA 😬

Humanoid robots are slipping into factories and warehouses faster than the TSA confiscates water bottles.

Figure AI aims to fix that with its new Center for the Advancement of Humanoid Safety, led by an ex-Amazon Robotics engineer. They'll focus on testing robots for safe navigation and interaction with humans (and even pets). While OSHA fumbles to regulate automation, Figure AI plans to bring transparency with quarterly safety reports.

Humanoid robots need safety standards before they become workplace bullies.

Meet the DALL·E3 Killer
DeepSeek’s Janus-Pro Beats Down OpenAI 🥊

DeepSeek is making Silicon Valley sweat again.

They've rolled out Janus-Pro 7B, an image generator they’re claiming puts DALL·E3 and Stable Diffusion XL to shame. With demos live and notable benchmarks showing it ahead of the pack (except for MidJourney, strategically avoided), it’s clear DeepSeek isn’t playing around. Add this to their R1 large language model that’s already humiliating the competition, and it's safe to say this David versus Goliath story is far from over.

They’re trolling at this point. Sam Altman doesn’t know if he should laugh or cry.
