Alert: Apple just dropped a new model on Hugging Face. It's a Qwen3.5-9B finetune that turns long documents into small page images to save tokens, then pulls up the full text of only the pages relevant to your question 💡 huggingface.co/apple/LensVLM…

Speech recognition is easy—until you ask it to listen forever. Today we’re open-sourcing Audio8 ASR Infinite: Ultra-low latency, unlimited audio, 24/7 transcription, no drift. Built-in semantic turn detection keeps it listening like a human ear. New SOTA for streaming ASR.

Introducing FLUX 3 Action. An open weights 7B World Action Model that achieves first place on the RoboLab benchmark. It outperforms the previous best open model by 6.1 percentage points while using 56% fewer parameters and running up to 3.95x faster.⁠⁠ FLUX 3 Action removes the usual trade-off between world action model performance and VLA speed: it still predicts video and actions together, but plans more than twice as far ahead and runs faster per second of robot motion than the strongest open VLA. Teams can fine-tune FLUX 3 Action on their own demonstrations to create policies for a particular robot and task. Together with @nvidia, we also integrated FLUX 3 Action natively into @huggingface's LeRobot, with fine-tuning recipes included and edge deployment on NVIDIA Jetson. Beyond robotics, we’re also seeing promising results training task-specific policies for acting in simulated environments like gaming, controlling a vehicle, computer use, and wherever else a model needs to understand a visual environment and then choose what to do next. FLUX 3 Action builds on the same image, video, and audio pretraining as FLUX 3, but uses a smaller architecture designed for practical deployment. In midtraining, we trained the model to predict actions and future frames together. We’re releasing the weights, code, fine-tuning recipe, benchmarks, and reproducible examples so researchers and developers can build on the model with their own robots, environments, and tasks (see below).
