AT&T and GSMA build open telco AI on Gemma, hitting 91.7% accuracy

AT&T and GSMA built 30 open telco models on Gemma to solve the fundamental problem that general AI lacks telecom domain knowledge. Gemma-4-E4B-it hit 91.74% accuracy, and smaller fine-tuned models are outperforming frontier models several times larger. Over 18 million downloads later, this is a case study in why domain-specific fine-tuning beats general scale.

Local Model Triage for OpenClaw: Real-Time, Cost-Free PR Classification

If you own a powerful local machine like the NVIDIA GB10, using models like gemma-4-26b-a4b or qwen3.6-35b-a3b in an agent harness can give you real-time, cost-free triage of open-source contributions. The article provides concrete numbers on precision, recall, and throughput tradeoffs, plus a practical hybrid architecture that uses a cheap cloud audit loop ($9/month) to catch misses.

Every Future Product Will Be a Living System: Ronak Malde on Continual Learning

Ronak Malde, CEO of Trajectory.ai, argues that static AI models are insufficient for enterprise use cases like legal or finance—every future product must be a living system that learns continuously. He details how they achieve this with concurrent training jobs, Self-Distillation Policy Optimization, and open-sourced infrastructure.

Improving Ray Serve LLM on GKE: 5x Throughput, 8x Latency

If you've ever struggled with the performance tax of using Ray Serve for LLM inference on Kubernetes, this article details three concrete architectural fixes—HAProxy integration, direct token streaming, and a v2 vLLM executor—that deliver up to 5x higher throughput and 8x lower latency on GKE, closing the gap with native vLLM without sacrificing developer experience.
