Thinking Machines Lab has released Inkling Small, an open-weight multimodal mixture-of-experts model with 12B active parameters out of 276B total and a 524K token context window. The model targets reasoning, coding, agentic workflows, and multilingual use cases at $0.58 per 1M input tokens and $1.44 per 1M output tokens.

Thinking Machines Lab, founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, announced TML-Interaction-Small, a full-duplex AI model that processes input while generating responses simultaneously. The company claims 0.40-second response time, matching natural human conversation speed.
