Elixir v1.20 released! Now officially a gradually typed language: Elixir type checks every single line of code, finding bugs and dead code, without developer overhead (no typing signatures) and extremely low false positives rate. Plus a faster compiler! Links and reports below.

The Expert Language Server is live: github.com/elixir-lang/exper… - nightly builds available for alpha testing and contributors.
Thank you to @flydotio, @_tauspace_, and @River for sponsoring the development so far!

these two days we are sharing the instruct and thinking models of our smaller variant of the 2507 seires, 30a3-2507. fast, but much smarter than before. i like this size, it is just something that i can easily play with, which is also somehow smart enough.
btw, i hope we can shoot coder 30a3 tmr.
🚀 Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507, a medium-size model that can think!
• Nice performance on reasoning tasks, including math, science, code & beyond
• Good at tool use, competitive with larger models
• Native support of 256K-token context, extendable to 1M
Qwen Chat: Go to chat.qwen.ai/?model=Qwen3-30… and click “Thinking”.

We need a way to validate approaches to how we work with LLMs to write code, and we need to start developing the dataset. I've laid some groundwork here, but I need help. Tear it up, critique it, but most of all, PR some evals y'all. #MyElixirStatus github.com/ash-project/evals

Elixir 1.19 is a banger! I'm so pleased with the direction that #ElixirLang is going. My programs just get faster and more correct every time. I just know that we're in good hands. Thank you to everyone on the team for your hard work!

Nice to see Apple is hiring Elixir devs and, apparently, they’re using Phoenix LiveView too:

We are launching testnet with the pre-training of a 40B parameter LLM:
- MLA Architecture
- Dataset consisting of FineWeb (14T) + FineWeb-2 minus some less common languages (4T), and The Stack v2 (1T)
The resulting model will be small enough to train on with a single H/DGX and run on a 3090, but it will be powerful enough to serve as the basis for strong reasoning models and creative pursuits. The model will be trained continually without a final "annealing" step, resulting in a true unaltered base model.
Looking ahead, we will draw model ideas from the community via our forum and Discord. By enabling highly parallel and scalable experimentation, we’re betting that the next innovation in model creation and design will come from the open source community.

I've just released Handoff, a new Elixir library for distributed function graph execution.
hexdocs.pm/handoff
Among other things, the library enables distributed Nx computations (anyone said distributed inference?)
A huge part of this was sponsored by @tvlabs!

We created our own LLM evaluation test suite using ExUnit in @Learning_Elixir 😉 Want to know how? 🧵

Zed agents are officially out! Here is a video of me using Zed agents (during the beta) with Tidewave to "vibe code" the pricing plan component, all the way to database migrations.

Introducing Tidewave: beyond code intelligence.
While working on our web apps, we run code, query the database, read logs, search docs… but AI tools are limited to compiling code.
Watch Tidewave transform Claude Desktop into an agent by running a MCP server in your web app!

Releasing moondream-zig!
It is a fast, implementation of moondream2 inference on the CPU written from-scratch in Zig :)
moondream-zig provides 1.5-2x faster inference compared to huggingface on the same device.

I know a handful of experienced #ElixirLang devs who have been hit by layoffs recently. If you'd like an intro, or you have any tips on remote roles they should apply for, let me know.

More voice AI exploration:
Bumblebee doesn't currently support text-to-speech models, but managed to get Kokoro TTS working with Ortex

Elixir v1.18 is out: elixir-lang.org/blog/2024/12… 🎄🍾
It is a fantastic release: type checking of function calls, Language Server listeners, built-in JSON, ExUnit improvements, IEx auto-reload, and more.
See the announcement for examples and videos.
