Reflection AI launches Beam, a 501B open-weight model

Original: Beam: Reflection's 501B open-weight model

Reflection AI has introduced Beam, a large open-weight model with roughly 501 billion parameters, positioning it among the biggest openly available models to date. The announcement is drawing attention from developers and AI watchers debating how its scale and open weights compare with leading proprietary systems and other open releases.

Why now: The release of a very large open-weight model is a notable competitive move in the fast-moving AI race.
