Introducing Oasis: the first playable AI-generated game. We partnered with @DecartAI to build a real-time, interactive world model that runs >10x faster on Sohu. We're open-sourcing the model architecture, weights, and research. Here's how it works (and a demo you can play!):

We're excited to partner with @cognition_labs @mercor_ai @CoreWeave and @AnthropicAI to host an inference-time compute hackathon, featuring >$60K in cash prizes and >1 exaflop of free compute.

We believe today's models significantly underutilize inference-time compute and search. With better algorithms and much faster hardware, we can push this scaling law by several orders of magnitude. We're particularly interested in research that accelerates parallel reasoning,

Oasis was trained on purely open-source data from VPT, OpenAI's open-source Minecraft dataset (MIT license)! You can learn more about that dataset here: github.com/openai/Video-P…

Meet Sohu, the fastest AI chip of all time. With over 500,000 tokens per second running Llama 70B, Sohu lets you build products that are impossible on GPUs. One 8xSohu server replaces 160 H100s. Sohu is the first specialized chip (ASIC) for transformer models. By specializing,

GPUs aren’t getting better, they’re just getting bigger. In the past four years, compute density (TFLOPS/mm^2) has only improved by ~15%. Next-gen GPUs (NVIDIA B200, AMD MI300X, Intel Gaudi 3, AWS Trainium2, etc.) are now counting two chips as one card to “double” their
