New podcast/lecture combo -- a case study in the messy details of Olmo 3 post training & DPO with @scottgeng00. It's rare to make time for these discussions, but we cover: What it takes for a research idea to make it into a (near) frontier model. The messy side of DPO (usually

WAI is proud to introduce TMax: open terminal agents trained on an academic budget. Across different model sizes, TMax lies on the Pareto-optimal frontier of terminal-agent performance. Academic-scale RL can really produce highly competitive agents. Check out our Blog!
