Thinking Machines amps up its bet against one-size-fits-all AI with its first open model, Inkling
Summary
Thinking Machines has launched Inkling, an open-weight mixture-of-experts model featuring 975 billion parameters. Unlike proprietary models from OpenAI or Google, Inkling is designed to be downloaded and customized by enterprises using the company’s Tinker platform. By prioritizing adaptable, domain-specific AI over rigid general-purpose systems, the startup aims to provide a more efficient, cost-effective alternative for organizations that want to retain control over their proprietary data and expertise.
