SPECK 2 IS ALREADY OUT: specklabs/Speck2-140M

Pretrained on 4x more tokens than the previous releases (20b vs 5b).
Instruct tuned versions are coming soon.
Very interesting models are coming soon too (hint: moe).

Thanks for everyone supporting!

SPECK1.5 IS COMING SOON!
Same 5B token budget but much better corpus quality.

Also getting a ton of downloads, thanks for everyone downloading and liking <3

NEW SPECK UPDATES:

Just hit #14 and #15 with out FIRST models on Open SLM Leaderboard. The models were trained on 5B tokens, while competing with similarly sized models trained on more than 6-20x the data.

A new base model Speck1.5-140M being trained right now on a higher quality corpus and will be released soon.
SpeckChat3 is coming very soon with 1 million samples, specifically designed to post train small base models.

Also, just to clarify stuff, we will NOT release anything that is NOT MIT licensed EVER. Openness is needed in small language research.

Thanks to everyone supporting the project, and stay tuned for new releases!

SPECK UPDATES:
1 New instruct model tuned on top of Speck1-140M: specklabs/Speck1-140M-Instruct
2 Instruction tuning datasets
2 GGUFs

Much more coming soon:
Speck1.1-140M-Instruct that is post trained on SpeckChat2 will be coming very soon
New base model Speck1.5-140M is coming with a much higher quality corpus

Thanks to everyone who is already supporting the project, and stay tuned for new releases!

FIRST SPECK MODEL RELEASED:
specklabs/Speck1-140M

new models coming very soon (both instruct and much better models), with much much higher training scale as i am getting marenostrum5 access soon!
we will be looking at 100b-2t token budgets :)

Anthropic gave me six months of Claude Max 20x through the Claude for Open Source program, granted based on my Hugging Face work. Thank you
Anthropic
for supporting open source.

So far I've been pointing it at Markdown Minimap, an Obsidian plugin that adds a scrollable IDE-style minimap to your notes. This week I've been clearing a backlog of user-reported issues on it, with Claude often handling them end to end.

https://github.com/Nymbo/Markdown-Minimap — issues and PRs welcome.

Introducing Inflect-v2, two exceptionally small, open-weight English TTS models at just 3.9M and 9.3M parameters. Both generate speech multiple times faster than real-time on CPU. Despite their size, Inflect-v2 delivers quality that is competitive with much larger lightweight TTS systems, including KittenTTS, Piper, and Supertonic-3.

CPU, CUDA, PyTorch, and ONNX are supported. Apache 2.0.

See it for yourselves:
owensong/Inflect-Micro-v2
owensong/Inflect-Nano-v2

Try the Demos:
Nymbo/Inflect-TTS (unlimited CPU usage)
owensong/Inflect-v2 (ultra-fast ZeroGPU usage)

Shipped v0.1.2 of vtx — a minimalist coding agent for the terminal.

Most agentic CLIs ship 10k+ token system prompts. Vtx is ~2,200. Less prompt overhead means more room for your code in the model's context window.

Vtx is a from-scratch Python implementation of the design philosophy behind pi-mono — same principles, pure Python, no transpiled runtime.

What ships out of the box:

→ Textual TUI + headless CLI (vtx -p "fix the failing test")
→ 49 LLM provider gateways, all declared in a single provider.yaml
→ 5 core tools (read / edit / write / bash / find) plus web search and fetch
→ Session tree with compaction, handoff, and resume
→ AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md auto-discovery
→ Skills system — drop SKILL.md files in .agents/skills/ and they become slash commands
→ Two OAuth flows (GitHub Copilot device flow, OpenAI Codex PKCE)
→ Two-mode permissions: prompt (default) or auto, with a safe-command allowlist

This release adds a proper extension system. Register new LLM-callable tools, intercept tool calls, hook lifecycle events, and add slash commands from a single register(api) function in a Python file under ~/.vtx/agent/extensions/. Extensions can override built-in tools by name and chain handler logic across subscribers.

Apache 2.0. uv tool install vtx-coding-agent and you're running.

GitHub: https://github.com/OEvortex/vtx-coding-agent
PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/vtx-coding-agent

Built in the open. Feedback, extensions, and PRs welcome.

Excited to announce my latest open-source release on Hugging Face: Parveshiiii/breast-cancer-detector.

This model has been trained and validated on external datasets to support medical research workflows. It is designed to provide reproducible benchmarks and serve as a foundation for further exploration in healthcare AI.

Key highlights:
- Built for medical research and diagnostic study contexts
- Validated against external datasets for reliability
- Openly available to empower the community in building stronger, more effective solutions

This release is part of my ongoing effort to make impactful AI research accessible through **Modotte**. A detailed blog post explaining the methodology, dataset handling, and validation process will be published soon.

You can explore the model here: Parveshiiii/breast-cancer-detector

Just did something I’ve been meaning to try for ages.

In only 3 hours, on 10 billion+ tokens, I trained a custom BPE + tiktoken-style tokenizer using my new library microtok — and it hits the same token efficiency as Qwen3.

Tokenizers have always felt like black magic to me. We drop them into every LLM project, but actually training one from scratch? That always seemed way too complicated.

Turns out it doesn’t have to be.

microtok makes the whole process stupidly simple — literally just 3 lines of code. No heavy setup, no GPU required. I built it on top of the Hugging Face tokenizers library so it stays clean, fast, and actually understandable.

If you’ve ever wanted to look under the hood and build your own optimized vocabulary instead of just copying someone else’s, this is the entry point you’ve been waiting for.

I wrote up the full story, threw in a ready-to-run Colab template, and dropped the trained tokenizer on Hugging Face.

We should really have a release date range slider on the /models page. Tired of "trending/most downloaded" being the best way to sort and still seeing models from 2023 on the first page just because they're embedded in enterprise pipelines and get downloaded repeatedly. "Recently Created/Recently Updated" don't solve the discovery problem considering the amount of noise to sift through.

Slight caveat: Trending actually does have some recency bias, but it's not strong/precise enough.
