机器之心 reports that a Fudan University and Shanghai Innovation Institute team led by Qiu Xipeng compared RoPE/NoPE full attention, sliding-window attention, and gated linear attention hybrids on long-context tasks. Across models from 376M to 3B parameters, the study found trade-offs between length extrapolation and continued long-context training, and proposed sliding-window linear attention to improve extrapolation. The researchers also analyzed how position-biased and position-free attention modules cooperate.

OpenPencil lets users describe UI in natural language and see it appear on an infinite canvas, then modify existing designs by selecting elements and chatting. It also lets multiple AI agents work on different sections of complex pages in parallel while keeping `.op` files human-readable, Git-friendly and diffable.
Key features
Prompt-to-canvas generation — Describe a UI in …
