๐ What happened in AI in 2025? ๐
We prepared the 2025 version of the HF AI Timeline Grid, highlighting open vs API-based model releases, and allowing you to browse and filter by access, modality, and release type!
Play with it here:
2025-ai-timeline/2025-ai-timeline
Here's my personal quarterly TL;DR:
1๏ธโฃ Q1 โ Learning to Reason
Deepseek not only releases a top-notch reasoning model, but shows how to train them and compete with closed frontier models. OpenAI debuts Deep Research.
Significant milestones: DeepSeek R1 & R1-Zero, Qwen 2.5 VL, OpenAI Deep Research, Gemini 2.5 Pro (experimental)
2๏ธโฃ Q2 โ Multimodality and Coding
More LLMs embrace multimodality by default, and there's a surge in coding agents. Strong vision, audio, and generative models emerge.
Significant milestones: Llama 4, Qwen 3, Imagen 4, OpenAI Codex, Google Jules, Claude 4
3๏ธโฃ Q3 โ "Gold" rush, OpenAI opens up, the community goes bananas
Flagship models get gold in Math olympiads and hard benchmarks. OpenAI releases strong open source models and Google releases the much anticipated nano-banana for image generation and editing. Agentic workflows become commonplace.
Significant milestones: Gemini and OpenAI IMO Gold, gpt-oss, Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, Grok 4, Claude Sonnet 4.5
4๏ธโฃ Q4 โ Mistral returns, leaderboard hill-climbing
Mistral is back with updated model families. All labs release impressive models to wrap up the year!
Significant milestones: Claude Opus 4.5, DeepSeek Math V2, FLUX 2, GPT 5.1, Kimi K2 Thinking, Nano Banana Pro, GLM 4.7, Gemini 3, Mistral 3, MiniMax M2.1 ๐คฏ

deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-OCR is out! ๐ฅ my take โคต๏ธ
> pretty insane it can parse and re-render charts in HTML
> it uses CLIP and SAM features concatenated, so better grounding
> very efficient per vision tokens/performance ratio
> covers 100 languages

๐ New blog: Maintain the unmaintainable โ 1M+ Python LOC, 400+ models
How do you stop a million-line library built by thousands of contributors from collapsing under its own weight?
At ๐ค Transformers, we do it with explicit software-engineering tenets, principles that make the codebase hackable at scale.
๐ Inside the post:
โ One Model, One File: readability first โ you can still open a modeling file and see the full logic, top to bottom.
โ Modular Transformers: visible inheritance that cuts maintenance cost by ~15ร while keeping models readable.
โ Config-Driven Performance: FlashAttention, tensor parallelism, and attention scheduling are config-level features, not rewrites.
Written with @lysandre ,@pcuenq and @yonigozlan , this is a deep dive into how Transformers stays fast, open, and maintainable.

upgrade your transformers ๐ฅ
it comes with insanely capable models like merve/sam2-66ac9deac6fca3bc5482fe30, microsoft/kosmos-2.5, and more ๐ซก
I built a notebook you can run with free Colab T4 to walk through the API for new models ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ merve/smol-vision
fine-tuning will follow-up soon!
