    China's AI 3D model Hi3D V1.0 goes open source, releasing weights and inference code

    China's AI 3D creation platform Hi3D has announced the open-sourcing of the V1.0 model weights and inference code, with the resources now available on GitHub and Hugging Face. The model is based on the Sparc3D architecture, and its training data has been expanded from about 500,000 to about 2 million curated 3D assets. It supports an effective sparse grid resolution of up to 1536³ and takes a reference image and a coarse mesh as input to progressively refine the geometric structure, but it outputs only the geometric model and does not generate textures, materials, or vertex colors. V1.0 uses a custom license agreement: upon exceeding 200,000 monthly active users or reaching US$1 million in monthly revenue, the licensee must notify the licensor within 60 days and apply for a separate written authorization.

    Nanbeige Releases Nanbeige4.3-33B Open-Source Agentic Coding Model

    Nanbeige LLM Lab released Nanbeige4.3-33B on Hugging Face under the Apache 2.0 license. It is a 33B dense model aimed at agentic coding and office collaboration tasks, supports a 524,288 token context window, and is released alongside Nanbeige4.3-33B-Base, which supports customizable post-training. In the lab's self-built comparison table, it leads in 17 of 20 benchmarks against Qwen3.8-27B, Muse-Glimmer-30B, and Gemma4-31B, scoring 80.9 on Terminal-Bench 2.1, but trails Qwen3.8-27B on SWE-Bench Pro with 60.3 versus 61.7. The article points out that some competitor figures in its table are inconsistent with the official model cards from Meta and Google, and that two SWE-Bench Pro entries appear to be swapped; these results need to await independent reproduction. The model is positioned as the teacher model for the Nanbeige4.3 series, with plans to subsequently distill agentic capabilities into Nanbeige4.3-3B.

    Block releases speech model Dessa, trained entirely on human speech

    Block has released the speech model Dessa, which it says is the first AI model trained from scratch entirely on human speech, without any text data. Dessa processes audio directly rather than first converting it to text, allowing it to capture emotion, sarcasm, laughter, and pauses in real time. It supports full-duplex communication and can run locally on a MacBook Pro M4 Max, with training performed on a single NVIDIA GB200 NVL72. The model has not yet been made public, and the team is recruiting AI safety researchers to test potential risks.

    Block launches full-duplex speech model Dessa, supporting local operation on MacBook

    Block launches the full-duplex speech model Dessa, which can listen to the user's speech while speaking; emotional expression is natively built into the model, and it can simulate states such as laughter, pauses, and choking up. The company says the model can run locally on consumer-grade computers, with the device threshold being MacBooks with M4 Max or higher configurations, and that training used only a single rack of NVIDIA GPUs. At this stage Dessa is not open for public trial; Block is sending testing invitations to safety researchers, focusing on risk scenarios in which such speech agents deceive humans.

    Block releases Dessa, a full-duplex model trained purely on speech, which can run locally in real time on a MacBook Pro M4 Max

    Block, founded by Twitter co-founder Jack, has released Dessa, a speech-to-speech model trained from scratch purely on human speech, with no text and no pretrained base, supporting full duplex so it can listen and speak at the same time. The model claims inference faster than real time and can run locally on a MacBook Pro M4 Max and above, and the entire model is said to have been trained on a single NVIDIA GB200 NVL72. The team says its goal is to let the model understand tone and emotion, avoiding the safety risk of continuing to respond without perceiving the other person's distress.

    We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence. https://t.co/r0qFLdvd6c
