Snowflake says its Cortex Training service now includes Inkling 2 Small, an open-weight agentic model from Thinking Machines Lab. The model can run both batch jobs and streaming inference on data that Snowflake governs. Users can call the model through the same Snowflake interface they use for other analytics. The addition expands the range of AI workloads that can be kept inside Snowflake’s data environment.
Why it matters
Enterprises can apply a modern agentic model to their governed data without moving it outside Snowflake.
