Thinking Machines ships Inkling, a 975B open-weights model framed as deliberately mid

- Fireship says Thinking Machines has finally shipped Inkling, a 975B-parameter open-weights model.
- The video frames it as a deliberately “mid” model and looks at what it actually does in practice.
- The thumbnail also plugs Clerk CLI, which lets agents set up auth and payments for an app, but that appears secondary to the model discussion.
