I miss a good 9B class model :',( The last one was 3.5.

27B is just a little bit too big for a 16GB GPU.

nezhar•16h ago
Yeah, same with the latest releases of meta and NVIDIA. It's like everybody is expected to have 32 GB of RAM
meffmadd•19h ago
Hopefully they release the 35B-A3B version alongside it.

Didn't think we'd have model launch pages so 'soon'; how long until we have something Steam-like and can preload our eagerly-awaited models?

Anyway, eager to try [on hardware I own]!

It feels so strange that we now have countdowns for model releases

Alibaba does this for their shopping biz all the time. Growth hack is very high priority in the company. Their homepage was a bunch of ridiculous SEO. The whole culture there seems very distasteful to me. This doesn’t mean this qwen model is bad today, but I’m a believer that culture will decide the product quality in the long run.

DeepSwe score is 42.2. For comparison 3.6-27b is 13.3, GLM 5.2 is 44, and Opus 4.8 is 59.
