VidaForge: Open Research Infrastructure for Video Pretraining Data Recipes

VidaForge releases open infrastructure and VIDAFORGE-3M (3.14M clips, 6,475 hours) linking video pretraining data recipes to downstream model performance.

VidaForge is an open research infrastructure that represents a video pretraining data recipe as an executable five-stage workflow from raw videos to training datasets. The team compares data recipes with different coverage and quality during early from-scratch pretraining of Wan 2.1 and V-JEPA 2.1, finding that broader-coverage recipes achieve the highest downstream benchmark scores while loss-based evaluation favors different recipes. They also release VIDAFORGE-3M, containing 3.14 million scene-level clips totaling 6,475 hours with fine-grained annotations and curation signals for video data-recipe research.

RTK reports token savings, but our cost benchmarks disagree

Quesma's $1,500 benchmark found RTK cuts reported token output but changes Claude Code and DeepSeek coding costs by only about 5% on Terminal-Bench 2.1.

Quesma benchmarked RTK (Rust Token Killer), a popular tool with 79k GitHub stars that filters terminal output for AI coding agents, whose README claims up to 90% output reduction. Across 1,740 Terminal-Bench 2.1 attempts running Claude Code with Fable 5.0 and OpenCode with DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813, total costs moved only -5% for Fable and +5% for DeepSeek, with pass rates dropping 1-2%. RTK's own rtk gain metric reported 349.2 million tokens saved (an 89% reduction) across 445 DeepSeek attempts, but this did not correlate with actual cost savings, and cached terminal-output reads cost as little as 1/10 to 1/30 of regular input tokens. A bug in rtk find 0.45.0 caused one agent to loop with 339 consecutive errors, costing roughly 9x the baseline attempt, though the task still passed.

Podcast: Amazon is Destroying Rare Books to Train AI

404 Media podcast covers Amazon buying and destroying rare books for AI training, AI misuse in court cases, and Meta's glasses patent.

404 Media's podcast discusses its investigation tracing a shipment of rare books to an Amazon AI training facility where they were destroyed, alongside reporting on AI misuse in courts: an expert witness who used ChatGPT to write a report defending 3M in a deadly explosion lawsuit, and a prompt injection hidden in a legal filing instructing AI to side with one party. It also covers Meta's new patent for AI smart glasses with facial recognition and research into the glasses being used to harass women.
