Kimi K3: Open Frontier Intelligence
arXiv
Kimi K3 is Moonshot AI's 2.8-trillion-parameter open mixture-of-experts model with native vision and a one-million-token context, released with full weights. Its report describes the architecture, training and serving work behind it, and reports frontier-level results that still trail the strongest proprietary models.

The Common Pile v0.1: An 8TB Dataset of Public Domain and Openly Licensed Text
arXiv
An eight-terabyte collection of public domain and openly licensed text for pretraining language models, released together with two 7B-parameter models trained on it to show the data is enough.
- 2025
Qwen3 Technical Report
arXiv
The Qwen3 Technical Report presents Alibaba's Qwen3 family of dense and mixture-of-experts language models, which unify thinking and non-thinking modes, add a controllable thinking budget, and are released under the Apache 2.0 licence.

DeepSeek-R1: Incentivizing Reasoning Capability in LLMs via Reinforcement Learning
arXiv
The DeepSeek-R1 report described how a reasoning model was trained largely with reinforcement learning, rewarding correct answers, and reached performance comparable to OpenAI's o1 on math, code and reasoning benchmarks. Its weights were released openly.
- 2024
DeepSeek-V3 Technical Report
arXiv
A technical report from DeepSeek-AI on DeepSeek-V3, a mixture-of-experts language model with 671 billion total parameters, describing its architecture, training pipeline, and evaluations, including a full training run of 2.788 million H800 GPU hours.

The FineWeb Datasets: Decanting the Web for the Finest Text Data at Scale
arXiv
FineWeb is a 15-trillion-token pretraining dataset built from 96 Common Crawl snapshots and released in 2024 with its curation code and ablation models; its educational subset, FineWeb-Edu, improves results on knowledge- and reasoning-heavy benchmarks.
- 2024
LiveCodeBench: Holistic and Contamination Free Evaluation of Large Language Models for Code
arXiv
A benchmark for code LLMs that keeps collecting fresh contest problems from LeetCode, AtCoder and CodeForces, so that scores reflect ability rather than memorised test data, and that also tests code repair and execution reasoning.
- 2024
Dolma: an Open Corpus of Three Trillion Tokens for Language Model Pretraining Research
arXiv
Dolma is an openly released English corpus of three trillion tokens, built from web text, papers, code, books, social media and Wikipedia, with a paper documenting both the dataset and the pipeline used to curate it.

Scaling deep learning for materials discovery
Nature
A 2023 Nature paper from researchers at Google DeepMind presenting a scaled-up deep-learning approach to predicting stable crystal structures, screening 2.2 million candidates and reporting a large jump in stability-prediction accuracy.
- 2023
SWE-bench: Can Language Models Resolve Real-World GitHub Issues?
arXiv
A benchmark of 2,294 real software engineering problems taken from GitHub issues and the pull requests that resolved them, in which a model must edit a codebase to fix an issue; on release the best model solved under 2% of them.
- 2023
Segment Anything
arXiv 2304.02643
A 2023 paper that introduces the Segment Anything project: a promptable segmentation task, a model, and a dataset of over 1 billion masks on 11 million images, all released to advance foundation models for computer vision.

RedPajama: open reproduction of the LLaMA training dataset
Together AI blog / GitHub
RedPajama is an open-source project that began by reproducing the LLaMA training dataset, releasing a 1.2-trillion-token corpus as a clean-room, fully open implementation.
- 2022
Holistic Evaluation of Language Models (HELM)
arXiv
A 2022 paper by Percy Liang, Rishi Bommasani, Tony Lee and many co-authors that ran 30 language models through the same 42 scenarios and seven metrics, turning scattered benchmarks into one standardized evaluation.
- 2022
LAION-5B: An open large-scale dataset for training next generation image-text models
arXiv
LAION-5B is an openly available dataset of 5.85 billion CLIP-filtered image-text pairs, released so that researchers outside a handful of labs could study and reproduce large vision-language models.
- 2022
Training Compute-Optimal Large Language Models (Chinchilla)
NeurIPS
A DeepMind study showing that, for a fixed computing budget, language models should be trained on far more data than was then standard; its 70-billion-parameter Chinchilla beat larger contemporaries.

Program Synthesis with Large Language Models (MBPP)
arXiv
A 2021 arXiv paper by Austin, Odena, Nye and eight other authors that introduced MBPP, a benchmark of 974 short Python programming tasks, and measured how language models from 244M to 137B parameters turn natural-language descriptions into working code.
