AIMPACT states that Nous Research has open-sourced the long-context pretraining mechanism Lighthouse Attention. Processing a 512K text on a single B200 card is about 17 times faster, and at 98K it speeds up end-to-end by 1.4–1.7 times. This mechanism first does coarse filtering and then precise calculation: it uses multi-level summaries to screen out the core segments and stitch them into short text, which is then processed by FlashAttention. Since the filtering logic is outside the kernel, it eliminates the need for low-level code and additional training objectives. To prevent the model from losing character-by-character reading ability due to jumping reading, during training it completes most of the process in the accelerated mode, then briefly switches back to full attention at the end. In experiments with 5.3 billion parameters and 50 billion tokens, the time consumption drops significantly, and the final performance is comparable to, and even surpasses, traditional baselines.

Gu pointed out that more and more institutions hope to bring trillions of dollars of assets onto the chain within the next decade, but the current operational reality remains too risky for conservative capital allocators. Gu also mentioned that Certik detected hacking attacks almost daily in April, making April the worst month in the past four years, mainly due to AI-driven attacks.
