The first model from Thinking Machines is a 975B-A41B multimodal MoE that supports text, images, and audio as inputs and produces text as output. While it is not the strongest model among peers (in China) in its size class, it is positioned to be a great base for fine-tuning, e.g., through their commercial offering, Tinker. They also release a smaller version (276B-A12B), which is really competitive for its size.
