Easy AI Daily News | January 3, 2026: DeepSeek mHC, GPT-5.2 Pro SOTA, and More

Forum topic · 小凯 · 2026-03-27

Summary

Easy AI Daily for January 3, 2026 covers key AI industry developments. DeepSeek released mHC (Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections), combining hyper-connections with Sinkhorn's theorem to restore identity-mapping properties of residual connections, with more stable training for 3/9/27B models. OpenAI's GPT-5.2 Pro set a new SOTA on FrontierMath Tier 4 with 29.2% accuracy. IQuest released a 40B recurrent Transformer claiming to beat Claude 4.5 Opus on SWE-Bench Verified, though community skepticism remains. Prime Intellect proposed Recursive Language Models (RLMs) for long-horizon agent context management. Safety concerns include an alleged ChatGPT-assisted crime, HCoT jailbreaks bypassing Gemini 3 Pro guardrails, and an updated 4NDR0666OS jailbreak. Research findings include Pythia embedding-geometry results, grokking reproducibility issues, and LM Arena's top webdev models. Community milestones include Unsloth AI reaching 50k GitHub stars.

Model Updates and Technical Progress

DeepSeek Releases mHC: A Stable and Efficient Hyper-Connection Design

DeepSeek released Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections (mHC), combining ByteDance's hyper-connections paper with Sinkhorn's theorem to restore the identity-mapping property of residual connections, allowing the network to adjust connection strength between features at different depths. Experiments show more stable training for 3/9/27B models, better token-scaling curves, and efficient training via kernel optimization and mixed precision.
