Ex-OpenAI CTO Murati's Thinking Machines drops Inkling, a 975B parameter model that leads US labs but trails China Thinking Machines Lab, founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, released Inkling, a 975-billion-parameter multimodal open-weights model that leads U.S. open-weights models on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index but trails top Chinese open models on some tasks. Priced at $1.87 per million input tokens, Inkling is positioned as a base for fine-tuning rather than the most powerful model available. Thinking Machines Lab, founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, has released Inkling, a multimodal open-weights model with 975 billion parameters. It leads U.S. open-weights models on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, though top Chinese open models still beat it on some tasks. Pricing starts at $1.87 per million input tokens, and Thinking Machines is pitching Inkling as a base for fine-tuning rather than the most powerful model available.
