INCEPTION LABS' MERCURY 2 AI BEATS GOOGLE'S DIFFUSIONGEMMA AT ITS OWN GAME

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

Mercury 2 is a reasoning language model that generates about 1,000 tokens per second. It uses diffusion, the same trick that turns static into a photo in image generators like Stable Diffusion. The model is best for speed-sensitive, high-volume parts of workflows rather than the hardest frontier reasoning. It is only available via API/cloud.
