Prime Agent

Prime Intellect's Prime Agent: a self-improving RLM harness claiming 95.5% on ARC-AGI 3's public set

A self-improving recursive language model harness for coding and long-running autonomous tasks, built on Mario Zechner's Pi: programmatic tool calling, context as a runtime variable, multi-agent messaging, and scaffolding the agent patches while running. The headline 95.5% ARC-AGI 3 claim with Opus 5 comes with LDJ's asterisk: public set only, unvalidated on the private sets, and several harnesses claim similar. Nisten's line that keeps it honest: the model is not updating its own weights; that's still the holy grail.

INTELLECT-3

Prime Intellect releases INTELLECT-3, a 106B open MoE model

Prime Intellect released INTELLECT-3, a 106B-parameter mixture-of-experts model with 12B active parameters that scores 90% on AIME 2024/2025. The lab fully open-sourced the training stack alongside the weights, showing a small lab can train frontier-scale models.

INTELLECT-2

Prime Intellect launches INTELLECT-2, a 32B globally-distributed RL run

Prime Intellect released INTELLECT-2, a 32B reasoning model trained with globally decentralized reinforcement learning, a follow-up to the INTELLECT-1 decentralized pretraining run covered on the show in December. The release includes open weights on Hugging Face, a tech report, and the PRIME-RL training code.
