Dear r/LocalLLaMA, greetings from the Reka AI team!

We're a research lab with a focus on creating models that are useful for physical, real-world use cases. We're looking forward to hosting our first AMA and chatting about our latest model, our research direction, and anything else under the sun. We've just released our Reka Edge vision language model and we're looking to add new capabilities to generate and act in the physical world in our next model. Let us know what you'd like to see from us!

Joining us for the AMA are the research leads for our latest Reka Edge model:

And u/Available_Poet_6387 who works on API and inference.

We'll be here on Wednesday, 25th March from 10am to 12pm PST, and will continue to answer questions async after the AMA is over. You can reach us on Discord and check us out at our website, playground, or clipping app.

Aaand that's a wrap! Thank you for all your questions - we enjoyed learning about your cat flap use cases and picked up some Polish along the way. Please continue to post questions - we'll continue to monitor this page and reply when we can. We look forward to sharing more news of future developments like GGUF and quantized versions, and upcoming models. Feel free to reach out to us on Discord or on X!
