Very excited to share that an advanced version of Gemini Deep Think is the first to have achieved gold-medal level in the International Mathematical Olympiad! 🏆, solving five out of six problems perfectly, as verified by the IMO organizers! It’s been a wild run to lead this

Super thrilled to share that our AI has has now reached silver medalist level in Math at #imo2024 (1 point away from 🥇)! Since Jan, we now not only have a much stronger version of #AlphaGeometry, but also an entirely new system called #AlphaProof, capable of solving many more

Just posted Q3 earnings. We delivered our first-ever $100B quarter driven by double-digit growth across every major part of our business. (Five years ago, our quarterly revenue was at $50B🚀) Our full-stack approach to AI is driving real momentum and we’re shipping at speed.

Excited to release new repo: nanochat! (it's among the most unhinged I've written). Unlike my earlier similar repo nanoGPT which only covered pretraining, nanochat is a minimal, from scratch, full-stack training/inference pipeline of a simple ChatGPT clone in a single,

We processed over 1.3 Quadrillion tokens last month - that's 1,300,000,000,000,000 tokens! or to put it another way that's 500M tokens a second or 1.8 Trillion tokens an hour... 🤯

For the 2024 IMO we made a math-specific system and got silver. For 2025 we made Deep Think: a general-purpose reasoning system that got gold and excels on other tasks besides math, like voxel art!

Correction: it's a public model access through Gemini Ultra subscription (not API). I guess the main point is DeepThink IMO lite is available for the public to assess :)

Very cool to see this new state-of-the-art result on FrontierMath achieved by the #DeepThink IMO Gold model that we built 3 months (a long time) ago :) The fact that is evaluated externally using a publicly available API is a strong testament that what we built generalizes beyond

We evaluated Gemini 2.5 Deep Think on FrontierMath. There is no API, so we ran it manually. The results: a new record! We also conducted a more holistic evaluation of its math capabilities. 🧵

It felt like yesterday I was a 17yo at MIT Manipal who thought AI was more magic than math. Today, I shipped a first-of-its-kind backprop implementation that combines FlashAttention + GQA + SWA + Attention Sinks for GPT‑OSS : fully open source. Benchmarks: ~33× faster

I'm pleased to announce another (fairly minor) update to my RL tutorial (I fixed some typos, cited more papers, and added a wee bit more stuff on multi-agent RL and RL for LLMs). I don't have time to work on this anymore, so enjoy it as is! (Link below)

Few people are aware of how good Gemini Deep Think is. It's at the point where "Should I ask an expert to chew on this or Deep Think?" is often answered with Deep Think. GPT-5 Pro is more "intellectual yet idiot" while Deep Think has better taste. I've been repeating this a

Can AIs beat long video games? We made TextQuests to test GPT-5, Grok 4, Deepseek, etc. These games can often take people dozens of hours to beat. - AIs can't beat any of the games (without clues) - some AIs behave more viciously than others - AIs are getting better rapidly

Genie 3 is here - it can generate an entire world simulation that you can interact with in real-time, just from a text prompt! It's pretty mind-blowing really when you stop to think about it, and it's rapidly improving - one day we will be able to build the Holodeck for real!
