概要

 Hey! Alex here, with another weekly AI update! It seems like ThursdAI is taking a new direction, as this is our 3rd show this year, and a 3rd deep dive into topics (previously Ralph, Agent Skills), please let me know if the comments if you like this format. This week’s deep dive is into Clawdbot, a personal AI assistant you install on your computer, but can control through your phone, has access to your files, is able to write code, help organize your life, but most importantly, it can self improve. Seeing Wolfred (my Clawdbot) learn to transcribe incoming voice messages blew my mind, and I wanted to share this one with you at length! We had Dan Peguine on the show for the deep dive + both Wolfram and Yam are avid users! This one is not to be missed. If ThursdAI is usually too technical for you, use Claude, and install Clawdbot after you read/listen to the deep dive!Also this week, we read Claude’s Constitution that Anthropic released, heard a bunch of new TTS models (some are open source and very impressive) and talked about the new lightspeed coding model GLM 4.7 Flash. First the news, then deep dive, lets go 👇ThursdAI - Recaps of the most high signal AI weekly spaces is a reader-supported publication.

Z.ai (formerly Zhipu) shipped GLM‑4.7‑Flash, a 30B MoE model with only 3B active parameters per token, which makes it much more efficient for local agent work. We’re talking a model you can run on consumer hardware that still hits 59% on SWE‑bench Verified, which is uncomfortably close to frontier coding performance. In real terms, it starts to feel like “Sonnet‑level agentic ability, but local.” I know I know, we keep saying “sonnet at home” at different open source models, but this one slaps! Nisten was getting around 120 tokens/sec on an M3 Ultra Mac Studio using MLX, and that’s kind of the headline. The model is fast and capable enough that local agent loops like RALPH suddenly feel practical. It also performs well on browser‑style agent tasks, which is exactly what you want for local automation without sending all your data to a cloud provider. Liquid AI’s LFM2.5‑1.2B Thinking is the “Tiny but Capable” Class (X, HF)Liquid AI released a 1.2B reasoning model that runs under 900MB of memory while still manages to be useful. This thing is built for edge devices and old phones, and the speed numbers are backing it up. We’re talking 239 tok/s decode on AMD CPU, 82 tok/s on mobile NPU, and prefill speeds that make long prompts actually usable. Nisten made a great point: on iOS, there’s a per‑process memory limit around 3.8GB, so a 1.2B model lets you spend your budget on context instead of weights.This is the third class of models we’re now living with: not Claude‑scale, not “local workstation,” but “tiny agent in your pocket.” It’s not going to win big benchmarks, but it’s perfect for on‑device workflows, lightweight assistants, and local RAG.Voice & Audio: Text To Speech is hot this week with 3 releases! We tested three major voice releases this week, and I’m not exaggerating when I say the latency wars are now fully on. Qwen3‑TTS: Open Source, 97ms Latency, Voice Cloning (X, HF)Just 30 minutes before the show, Qwen released their first model of the year, Qwen3 TTS, with two models (0.6B and 1.7B). With support for Voice Cloning based on just 3 seconds of voice, and claims of 97MS latency, this apache 2.0 release looked very good on the surface!The demos we did on stage though... were lackluster. TTS models like Kokoro previously impressed us with super tiny sizes and decent voice, while Qwen3 didn’t really perform on the cloning aspect. For some reason (I tested in Russian which they claim to support) the cloned voice kept repeating the provided sample voice instead of just generating the text I gave it. This confused me, and I’m hoping this is just a demo issue, not a problem with the model. They also support voice design where you just type in the type of voice you want, which to be fair, worked fairly well in our tests!With Apache 2.0 and a full finetuning capability, this is a great release for sure, kudos to the Qwen team! Looking forward to see what folks do with this properly. FlashLabs Chroma 1.0: Real-Time Speech-to-Speech, Open Source (X, HF) Another big open source release in the audio category this week was Chroma 1.0 from FlashLabs, which claim to be the first speech2speech model (not a model that has the traditional ASR>LLM>TTS pipeline) and the claim 150ms end to end latency! The issue with this one is, the company released an open source 4B model, and claimed that this model powers their chat interface demo on the web, but in the release notes they claim the model is english speaking only, while on...
