Modular has made the full MAX source available, including the compiler, runtime and hardware backends. Developers can write once, run across accelerators and build commercial products on MAX without licensing fees or royalties. A big step toward making heterogeneous computing more accessible across CPUs, GPUs and accelerators. modular.com/blog/max-licen…

Thanks heaps for having me @Latitude37AU ! 🙏🏼 So great to see so many Aussie founders & want to help drive the ecosystem forward however I can 🔥
🇺🇸 San Francisco Immersion, Day 3.

We started the day at @a16z for a chat with an investment partner, before heading back to @airwallex for a few more sessions.

@mkjung_ shared his experience building Ivo and moving from Auckland to Silicon Valley in conversation with from Cooley walked us through setting up in the US, while @dankimxyz & @cclayporter talked about managing money in an agentic world.

We wrapped up with Tim Davis (@Modular) and @ravmike from Airwallex on building the software layer for AI compute.

A lot covered in one day. Onto day 4!

Huge fan of @TimmyTrumpet 🇦🇺 + @Blasterjaxx music 🎶 I created a new music video using the latest @OpenAI Astra model + @runwayml with a @Modular harness. The goal was to animate Narco with a ... more fortunate ending 🥹

Congrats to the @OpenAI @sama team on building a beast of a model. It's an incredible director! 🚀

What the world hasn’t grasped yet: recursive self-improvement will make AI - not humans - the main source of token demand.

We cannot yet comprehend the scale of what follows.
I wrote about the state of AI, why I’m concerned about the next few years, and the choices we need to make to keep the future in humanity’s hands.

Incredible to think that over 3 years ago we first announced Mojo 🔥 in our first launch video, and since then 100s of contributors have landed thousands pull requests, changed 100k's lines of code, and filed 1000's of issues and feature requests. Enormous thank you to everyone past, and present, who has helped build and shape Mojo 🔥🙏🏼
Mojo 🔥 1.0 is here.

Since we open-sourced the standard library, nearly 200 contributors have landed more than 1+ pull requests, changing 200k+ lines of code, and more than 1k+ others have filed issues that shaped the language.

To every developer who filed an issue, opened a pull request, wrote a language proposal, or built a package: thank you for being the architects of this language alongside us.

Today, @Qualcomm completed its acquisition of Modular.

Our AI-native software platform pairs naturally with Qualcomm's leadership in high-performance, energy-efficient compute. Together, we're building a heterogeneous ecosystem open to all hardware makers, with leading performance across CPUs, GPUs, NPUs, and custom silicon.

Our co-founder and CEO @clattner_llvm is taking on a new role as EVP of Advanced AI Software and Platforms, and our co-founder and president @iamtimdavis will be SVP and GM of Modular. The acquisition will accelerate the expansion of Qualcomm’ AI platforms and bring our technology to more developers, enterprises, hardware platforms, and markets.

A pivotal moment for AI.

As agentic workloads scale across data centers and edge, the industry needs a more open and modern software foundation.

With @Modular, we are bringing developers an open AI-native software platform that runs across diverse compute environments and gives customers real choice in how and where they deploy AI.
We’re excited to announce that Modular has entered an agreement to be acquired by @Qualcomm. The future of unified compute has never been stronger. Read the full announcement: modular.com/blog/qualcomm-…

Gemma 4 is live on Modular Cloud, day zero, with the fastest performance on both NVIDIA and AMD. Our MAX inference framework delivers 15% higher throughput vs. vLLM on B200, and we’re the only inference provider to ship @googlegemma 4 on a framework we built ourselves.

Two now: Gemma 4 31B (dense, 256K context) and 26B A4B (MoE, only 4B params active per pass). Both SOTA on Modular Cloud: modular.com/blog/day-zero-…

Modular Cloud runs on MAX, our inference framework that unifies GPU kernels, graph compilation, and high-performance serving in a single hardware-agnostic stack. New weights to SOTA deployment in days, on two hardware platforms: modular.com/request-demo?u…
