Hey guys! I’m Neel, been holed up in our south park office for the past year working on model training. excited to share our research! This is a preview of a very different type of computer use model—we train on the internet. Specifically we have 11 million hours of computer video stored on our storage cluster (previously shared https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45438496 !) and the model can work in 30 FPS. Since…

Get ready for the acquisition offers.

This seems like really great research, and the first time I’ve seen overwhelming praise on HN. Congrats!

I wanted to comment though that your title is not doing you any favors, and I suspect that is why this is not getting more traction (which it deserves). I fully expected some half baked GitHub repo, but instead found something truly awesome.

To use your own words, Neel, “ a very different type of computer use model” would have had me clicking faster. I’m not great at titles, however, and maybe there are better ideas out there.

Anyway, can’t wait to see how this develops! Especially looking forward to the CAD work.

How do I access this? Any HF or API coming?

Any benchmark comparisons to Fara-7B or Sonnet 4.6, Qwen 3.5 etc.?

11 million hours of data is a lot, did you have to synthesize it at all, or was it purely collected?

collected! no synthetic
