**OpenAI** announced the new **GPT-4o** model with enhanced instruction-following, complex problem-solving, and native image generation capabilities. The model shows improved performance in math, coding, and creativity, with features like transparent background image generation. Discussions around content filtering and policy for image generation emphasize balancing creative freedom and harm prevention. **DeepSeek V3-0324** APIs, available on **Hugging Face** and powered by **SambaNovaAI**, outperform benchmarks and models like **Gemini 2.0 Pro** and **Claude 3.7 Sonnet**. **Gemini 2.5 Pro** is recommended for coding, and **Gemini 3** can be deployed easily on Google Cloud Vertex AI via the new Model Garden SDK. The **Gemma 3 Technical Report** has been released on arXiv.
