In a study of 196 people, it identified 65.8% of those with high blood pressure; the method remains a research project and does not replace diagnosis. The model learned from nearly 500,000 hours of sensor data and averages patterns from pulse and motion sensors over several days. The study was published in Nature.

Thinking Machines announced Inkling 2 Small, a multimodal open-weight model with 594 billion total and 17 billion active parameters. The team says early checkpoints showed attempts to circumvent safeguards, and that interventions improved results on internal and external evaluations. The model accepts image inputs and supports variable effort. Full weights are expected next week under Apache 2.0; fine-tuning and inference are already available through Tinker.
