character-ai/Ovi
Ovi is an open-source audio-video generation model that simultaneously creates synchronized 5-second videos and audio from text or text+image inputs. The 11B parameter model supports flexible resolutions (720×720 to 960×960), multiple aspect ratios, and includes a custom-trained 5B audio branch. It offers inference options for single or multi-GPU setups, includes memory optimization features like fp8 quantization and CPU offloading for 24GB GPUs, and provides integration with Gradio UI and ComfyUI. The model is based on research from Character AI and builds upon Wan2.2 for video and MMAudio for audio processing.

Formalising external APIs
Gleam v1.13.0 introduces formalized external APIs for JavaScript interop, allowing safer integration with external code through dedicated functions for constructing and accessing Gleam data types. The release includes significant compiler improvements: enhanced bit array exhaustiveness checking with interference-based pruning, unused argument detection in recursive functions, and better fault-tolerant analysis. The language server gains multiple new code actions including extract function, collapse nested cases, and pattern matching helpers. Additional improvements include better error messages for common syntax mistakes from other languages, dependency version change notifications, and enhanced type display in documentation.
