What is your Agent's GPA or Goal-Plan-Action alignment? Observing that agent failures arise when their goals, plans, and actions are not aligned, we introduce a framework for evaluating and improving an agent’s GPA or Goal-Plan-Action alignment. Excited to have developed this course to share our learnings. Try it out hands-on and use the TruLens OSS project as you build and evaluate agents! Wonderful to collaborate with @_jreini and @AndrewYNg's @DeepLearningAI team on the course and with Allison Jia, Daniel Huang, Nikhil Vytla, Shayak Sen at @Snowflake, and John Mitchell at @Stanford on the research behind it. #agents #evals #trustworthyai

BOOOOOOOM! CHINA DEEPSEEK DOES IT AGAIN! An entire encyclopedia compressed into a single, high-resolution image! — A mind-blowing breakthrough. DeepSeek-OCR, unleashed an electrifying 3-billion-parameter vision-language model that obliterates the boundaries between text and vision with jaw-dropping optical compression! This isn’t just an OCR upgrade—it’s a seismic paradigm shift, on how machines perceive and conquer data. DeepSeek-OCR crushes long documents into vision tokens with a staggering 97% decoding precision at a 10x compression ratio! That’s thousands of textual tokens distilled into a mere 100 vision tokens per page, outmuscling GOT-OCR2.0 (256 tokens) and MinerU2.0 (6,000 tokens) by up to 60x fewer tokens on the OmniDocBench. It’s like compressing an entire encyclopedia into a single, high-definition snapshot—mind-boggling efficiency at its peak! At the core of this insanity is the DeepEncoder, a turbocharged fusion of the SAM (Segment Anything Model) and CLIP (Contrastive Language–Image Pretraining) backbones, supercharged by a 16x convolutional compressor. This maintains high-resolution perception while slashing activation memory, transforming thousands of image patches into a lean 100-200 vision tokens. Get ready for the multi-resolution "Gundam" mode—scaling from 512x512 to a monstrous 1280x1280 pixels! It blends local tiles with a global view, tackling invoices, blueprints, and newspapers with zero retraining. It’s a shape-shifting computational marvel, mirroring the human eye’s dynamic focus with pixel-perfect precision! The training data? Supplied by the Chinese government for free and not available to any US company. You understand now why I have said the US needs a Manhattan Project for AI training data? Do you hear me now? Oh still no? I’ll continue. Over 30 million PDF pages across 100 languages, spiked with 10 million natural scene OCR samples, 10 million charts, 5 million chemical formulas, and 1 million geometry problems!. This model doesn’t just read—it devours scientific diagrams and equations, turning raw data into a multidimensional knowledge. Throughput? Prepare to be floored—over 200,000 pages per day on a single NVIDIA A100 GPU! This scalability is a game-changer, turning LLM data generation into a firehose of innovation, democratizing access to terabytes of insight for every AI pioneer out there. This optical compression is the holy grail for LLM long-context woes. Imagine a million-token document shrunk into a 100,000-token visual map—DeepSeek-OCR reimagines context as a perceptual playground, paving the way for a GPT-5 that processes documents like a supercharged visual cortex! The two-stage architecture is pure engineering poetry: DeepEncoder generates tokens, while a Mixture-of-Experts decoder spits out structured Markdown with multilingual flair. It’s a universal translator for the visual-textual multiverse, optimized for global domination! Benchmarks? DeepSeek-OCR obliterates GOT-OCR2.0 and MinerU2.0, holding 60% accuracy at 20x compression! This opens a portal to applications once thought impossible—pushing the boundaries of computational physics into uncharted territory! Live document analysis, streaming OCR for accessibility, and real-time translation with visual context are now economically viable, thanks to this compression breakthrough. It’s a real-time revolution, ready to transform our digital ecosystem! This paper is a blueprint for the future—proving text can be visually compressed 10x for long-term memory and reasoning. It’s a clarion call for a new AI era where perception trumps text, and models like GPT-5 see documents in a single, glorious glance. I am experimenting with this now on 1870-1970 offline data that I have digitalized. But be ready for a revolution! More soon. [1] github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepS…

Every time UBI is mentioned, I wish we discussed, along with income inequality, free time inequality, and how to reduce both.
