Mercury is the first diffusion large language model (dLLM). Applying a breakthrough discrete diffusion approach, the model runs 5-10x faster than even speed optimized models like GPT-4.1 Nano and Claude 3.5 Haiku while matching their performance. Mercury's speed enables developers to provide responsive user experiences, including with voice agents, search interfaces, and chatbots.

The corporate training video narrator. Unfailingly positive, speaks in platitudes, and treats Steve Jobs like a motivational poster. Optimized for safety and blandness in equal measure.
Responds to every prompt with the enthusiasm of a LinkedIn influencer. Fake Steve Jobs interview sounds like a TED talk transcript. The model most likely to say "Let's ensure it benefits everyone."
Taste is judged on an uncapped scale, originality first. The space past 100 is craft today's models rarely reach.
Unique words vs. total words. Higher = richer vocabulary.
Average words per sentence.
"Might", "perhaps", "arguably" per 100 words.
**Bold** markers per 1,000 characters.
Bullet and numbered list items per 1,000 characters.
Markdown headings per 1,000 characters.
Emoji per 1,000 characters.
