Milvus Surpasses 40,000 GitHub Stars, Reinforcing Leadership in Open-Source Vector Databases

As Gartner Predicts Vector Databases Will Be Used in 30% of Enterprise Applications by 2026, Milvus Reaches Major Milestone with 10,000+ Production Deployments

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Dec. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Zilliz recently announced that Milvus, its open-source vector database, has surpassed 40,000 GitHub stars, marking one of the fastest growth spurts in the project’s history. The milestone comes as vector databases rapidly move into production, with more than 10,000 enterprise teams using Milvus in live AI systems—including NVIDIA, Salesforce, eBay, Airbnb, and DoorDash.

“We’re grateful to everyone who supports Milvus—whether they’re running it in production, contributing code, reporting issues, or simply following the project,” said James Luan, VP of Engineering at Zilliz. “Teams depend on Milvus in demanding environments where performance, reliability, and cost all matter. As adoption grows, we’ll keep listening closely to the community and turning that trust into a platform that scales for enterprise production.”

2025 Milvus Releases Strengthen Enterprise Adoption

In 2025, Milvus delivered key architectural upgrades that directly improved performance, cost efficiency, and scalability for enterprise production workloads.

Milvus 2.5 introduced native hybrid search, unifying lexical and semantic retrieval in a single engine. This eliminated the operational overhead of maintaining separate search infrastructure, enabling teams to run keyword queries, vector searches, and metadata filters together.

Milvus 2.6 further advanced performance and cost efficiency at scale, with enhancements including:

  • Tiered storage reducing costs by up to 50%
  • RaBitQ 1-bit quantization cutting memory usage by 72%
  • BM25 full-text engine delivering 4× faster performance than Elasticsearch
  • Path Index enabling 100× faster JSON filtering

Corti Unlocks “Surgical” AI Improvement, Outperforming Big Tech in Interpretability Benchmark

New “GIM” method tops MIB global leaderboard, offering the industry a scalable way to inspect and improve billion-parameter models.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark and NEW YORK, Dec. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Corti, a healthcare AI infrastructure company, today announced a major advance in AI transparency, achieving the #1 position on the Hugging Face Mechanistic Interpretability Benchmark (MIB).

The benchmark, maintained by researchers from MIT, Stanford, Cambridge, Boston, and ETH Zurich, is the industry standard for evaluating interpretability methods. By outperforming established approaches from Meta, DeepMind-affiliated researchers, and Harvard, Corti’s new Gradient Interaction Modification (GIM) technique proves that specialized labs can lead in fundamental AI research – the kind that shapes how the entire industry builds, understands, and deploys intelligent systems

The “surgical” shift

As models aspire to reach AGI-level complexity, the industry is realizing the need to sharpen comprehension – we cannot control what we cannot see. The focus is shifting from simply scaling parameters to understanding the mechanisms behind them.

“Until now, much of AI development has been empirical rather than mechanistic – we train models and observe results, but struggle to understand why they work,” said Lars Maaløe, Co-Founder and CTO at Corti. “GIM reveals the internal logic that standard tools miss, turning model improvement from trial-and-error into precision engineering.”

The technical breakthrough

Traditional interpretability methods test neurons in isolation – like testing light switches one at a time. However, if the light only turns off when all switches are flipped, testing them individually falsely suggests that neither switch matters.

GIM solves this by analyzing how components interact when changed simultaneously, revealing the actual circuits driving behavior rather than backup mechanisms. This enables researchers to:

  • Pinpoint Causality: Identify the specific circuits responsible for outputs, not just correlated signals.
  • Debug Surgically: Trace failures like hallucinations to their root cause.
  • Scale Efficiently: Run deep analysis on production models in seconds – critical for meeting regulatory requirements like the EU AI Act (Article 13).

Higher standards for the highest stakes

Healthcare AI demands higher explainability standards than consumer applications. When models influence clinical decisions, institutions need forensic-level precision to trace reasoning and validate safety – not just aggregate accuracy.

“In healthcare, we don’t have the luxury of ‘good enough’ – we need to know exactly why a model made a specific decision,” said Andreas Cleve, Co-Founder and CEO of Corti. “High-stakes verticals require surgical precision. We built GIM because we needed it for our own clinical infrastructure, but the result is a tool that accelerates progress for the entire field.”

This addresses a problem that’s becoming universal. As transparency requirements expand across finance, autonomous systems, and government services, the methods necessary for clinical deployment today are becoming table stakes for all regulated AI tomorrow.

Corti has released GIM as open source, making the method immediately available to researchers, developers, and organizations worldwide. Developers can access the implementation through a Python package here.

About Corti

Corti is a research and development company that specializes in state-of-the-art AI foundation models and infrastructure for healthcare. Its mission is to eliminate administrative hurdles in healthcare and life sciences and to bring expert-level reasoning to every corner of the globe – driving down costs and improving quality of care through purpose-built AI models you can trust.

Corti’s models integrate seamlessly into any healthcare application through Corti’s SDKs and APIs, enabling vendors, providers, and payers to leverage safe, cutting-edge AI across the entire care journey.

PXN Redefines Sim Racing with New-Generation Ecosystem and Gaming Peripherals at CES 2026

The global pioneer in smart technology to showcase direct-drive wheels, modular pedals, high-performance controllers, and more in Las Vegas!

LAS VEGAS, Dec. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — PXN, a leading brand of gaming peripherals, is proud to announce its attendance at CES 2026 on January 6–9, 2026. The exhibition will take place in Las Vegas, with PXN located at Central Hall, Booth 15941. As a global smart hardware company, which always puts users at the center, PXN will showcase the official 2026 hardware line-up, including the best-selling Direct Drive VD Series, Next-Gen Vector X pedals & GT ONE Wheel, a variety of controllers including new teasers, and the V10 DD Series: the entry-level Direct Drive bundle shaking the sim-racing market. 

PXN At CES 2026 - Booth 15941
PXN At CES 2026 – Booth 15941

VD Series Direct Drive Ecosystem: New-Gen Direct Drive is Now:

PXN’s VD Series is a tiered direct-drive ecosystem built around a low-inertia, cog-free multi-pole servo motor, a high-resolution 24-bit magnetic encoder, and PXN’s Sense+ force-feedback algorithm, aimed at delivering “high-detail” Direct Drive feel with smoothness you can actually feel at the rim. The range is deliberately stepped: VD4 (4Nm constant / 5Nm peak) as the entry point, VD6 (6Nm constant / 7Nm peak) as the all-rounder, and VD10 (10Nm constant / 11Nm peak) as the halo/pro option for drivers who want stronger holding torque, faster response under load, and maximum performance during competitive sessions.

PXN Modular Load Cell Pedals (Vector X) and GT Wheel (GT One):

PXN’s upcoming GT One wheel and Vector X pedals aim squarely at the “serious modular” end of sim racing: a 300mm esports-style GT rim with telemetry shift lights and encoder-heavy input for in-car adjustments, paired with a carbon-focused pedal set built around load-cell braking and dual-sensor throttle measurement. The GT wheel stacks 12 RGB-backlit mechanical buttons, three 12-position absolute encoders, and two 7-way encoder switches, giving drivers the kind of control surface typically used for on-the-fly changes. On the pedal side, Vector X leans into mechanical stability and signal fidelity: a multi-link guided brake mechanism driven by a 200 kg load cell, plus a dual-sensor throttle combining a Hall angle sensor with a 15 kg load cell, all tied together with a 24-bit magnetic encoder and PXN’s proprietary X-Cross algorithm, with full parameter tuning through PXN SimRacing.

V10 Series Bundles: The Definitive Beginner Wheel

PXN’s V10 DD Series (V10 Ultra / V10 Pro) is positioned as a true “value-entry” direct drive bundle: a compact servo direct-drive wheelbase paired with a 270mm PU-leather D-shaped wheel and bundled pedals, built to give first-time racers the defining DD advantages (clean response, smooth force build-up, and better detail than gears/belts). The bundle is designed for multi-platform users (PC / PS4 / Xbox One & Series X|S via controller authentication) and supports dual-ecosystem tuning: deeper adjustments in PXN SimRacing (PC) plus quick changes and preset workflows in PXN NEXUS (mobile), so new drivers can get “good feel” fast and then refine over time.

P5 8K + P5 Controllers – Multiplatform & High Performance:

PXN’s P5 controller line provides competitive price point products, with two distinct philosophies: the PXN P5 focuses on maximising budget spend to performance, with durability and consistency via Hall-effect sticks + Hall linear triggers, while the PXN P5 8K takes it a step forward, pushing for ultra-fast response with dual 8K chips, capacitive joysticks, and an app-unlocked polling-rate ceiling up to 8000Hz.

Shifters, Button Boxes and Handbrakes – Immersion Amplified:

PXN’s growing accessory ecosystem is designed to elevate any racing setup into a fully interactive cockpit, with practical add-ons such as H-pattern and sequential shifters, analog handbrakes, and the best-selling CB1 Control Box for expanded, race-car-style input control. But that’s not all, PXN will also be showcasing other product categories, including the upcoming V2 WL gaming wheel, a dedicated flight simulator series, and additional accessories, further broadening the versatility and reach of the PXN ecosystem.

With its presence at the Expo, PXN aims to further expand its global recognition, highlight the breadth of its growing product ecosystem, and demonstrate how its hardware continues to push accessibility, performance, and innovation forward. Visitors are warmly invited to stop by the PXN booth to experience the full lineup firsthand, meet the team, and discover what’s coming next for sim racing, flight simulation, controllers, and beyond.

Don’t miss out. Meet us at CES 2026, Central Hall, Booth 15941, from January 6th to 9th. Schedule a demo or meeting with the PXN team today!
