Is that when that URL will work too?
nshotton•1h ago
you can see the countdown here: https://modelscope.cn/models/Qwen/Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B?spm=a2ty...
Gobd•1h ago
That is for 2.5T parameter one, this is the correct countdown for. the 27B one https://modelscope.cn/models/Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B
kamranjon•1h ago
this seems to be a countdown for the 2.4t model - which is gigantic and is not as exciting for those running models locally
nshotton•1h ago
it looks like it says the 27b will be included in the release too, we will find out in 30 minutes lol
rrhjm53270•1h ago
I guess this one is for Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B from the URL

I love these small models that are able to fit onto local hardware. Even they are capable enough to be helpful and while I think AI is still a bubble, these open models give me faith that the underlying tech isn't going away.

404 URL that does not give any evidence for the claim made in the post title

where are you getting that deadline from?

Someone took modelscope countdown URL for 2.4T model and tried 27B path:

I'm very excited to try this out.

As an owner of a company spending $4000/mo on token spend. Yawn...

I tried every model under 1T and they are not useful for AI Agents.

If I want to use a regular chat model about amoral actions, the 7-9B abliterated models were fine.

I'm sure these 27B models can get you the weather after 5 minutes for the people who didn't buy Nvidia chips.
