    Inception drops Mercury Voice, a 320ms diffusion LLM for voice agents

    Inception Labs just rolled out Mercury Voice for enterprise customers, a diffusion LLM tuned specifically for conversational agents. It hits a median time to first answer token of 320 milliseconds—5.9x faster than GPT-6 Luna—without sacrificing tool-calling and reasoning performance. It drops straight into OpenAI-compatible voice pipelines, effectively killing the awkward pause in phone agents.

    Inception Labs launches Mercury Coder to generate 1,000+ tokens per second with diffusion

    Inception Labs just launched Mercury Coder, the first commercial-scale diffusion language model that generates entire code sequences in parallel rather than predicting tokens sequentially. Running on standard Nvidia H100 GPUs, it hits over 1,000 tokens per second while matching models like GPT-4o Mini. Why it matters: It proves text can borrow from image generation to slash AI inference latency and costs tenfold without specialized hardware.
