#73 AMALIA vs. smaller reasoning models (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I compare AMALIA against smaller, reasoning-focused models on Portuguese exam-style benchmarks and find that models like Qwen3.5 2B and LFM2.5 can outperform AMALIA—often by using far more tokens via test-time scaling. While AMALIA is strong and the team’s benchmarks are invaluable, practical use cases (like legal Q&A) may benefit from small reasoning models today; this also raises questions about a smaller, reasoning-capable future AMALIA.

After my work on Ginjinha , one thing became pretty apparent: Bagaço was large and diverse, but lacked high-quality data. I believe Bagaço …
#69 Retrospectiva #10 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
July was busy — like always — but we made sure to take some time and touch some grass. Or mountains in our case. With the high temperatures across Europe we went to the Trentino region and hiked around the Dolomites for five days. Cool temperatures and beautiful scenery. Vitto's idea of …
