Where is everyone? Hello?

A while ago it was punch after punch, a model could keep the leaderboard for just 2 days before getting dethroned. It was so unstable it feeled like a all-VS-all box match. Like here is Mistral hitting, but here comes Yi, then Cohere, then Llama and Gemini, all in the same month.
Now everything is still, Google had their model in experimental phase for a month now, Mistral didn't really push any boundary lately, Anthropic launched a 0.01% better model, OpenAI launched unusable expensive models.
Like bro, give us the show

Holidays, after all the last thing I care about now is swimming and enjoying life. Wait until February, things start to get better.

The curve is obviously flattening, it takes more money, time, data, smarts to build a SOTA model. For every model that gets released, there's probably some that don't get released or released but we don't hear about because they perform poorly.

Could that be the reason? These are the months with the slowest economy in most fields. I think they call it "The Dead of Winter" for a reason.

They're busy working on img2vid models apparently, an explosion happening in that domain rn..

I agree it has been quiet lately. Probably due to the holidays.
