After two days of fighting with benchmarking infrastructure, I finally benchmarked IFM/K2-Horizon-7B on 16GB VRAM. TL/DR: it works, but far behind Qwen-3.8-27B. Setup I compared 3 models - Qwen3.8-27B

I have a custom fork of llama.cpp designed around the ampere architecture specifically (though many of the upgrades also translate to faster performance of blackwell + lovelace). The recommended confi

For years, the JVM has watched the AI revolution from the bench. Every model, AI framework, every breakthrough, built with/for Python. jinfer is an inference engine built for the JVM from first princi

I am a beginner, Took a while to get started, get everything right. This setup is native not container. Still not sure if I did this right, or if I can tune this more. Environment=HF_HUB_OFFLINE=1 Env

As you know, Qwen3.8 27B has built-in support for embeddings. It gives pretty decent results in llama.cpp with the following parameters: --embedding --pooling mean The problem is that enabling embeddi

Hey everyone! We’re launching Voice Acting Arena with LAION x TTS Arena, and we’d love your help trying it out 🙂 You’ll hear two anonymous AI performances of the same scene and script, then compare th

Two months ago I announced I had found a new dynamic quant method called Voodoo Quant which was SOTA for the most aggressive quant levels on some smaller Qwen3.5 GGUF models. I kept the methodology pr

Personally, I think the whole 'AI (LLMs) is going to take over' is just BS marketing. They've been pushing this doom-and-gloom since 2019, and we all know the models back then were nowhere near as cap

I reallise this is not exactly a locally hostable model, at least definitly not on my hardware. But I figured some of you might have some insight on this. I run an agentic coding benchmark. The model

I had all the data saved from AA's v4.1 index, so when they upgraded it in the wake of Astra's release, I could actually generate a before/after comparison. All intelligence and price per task are sam

I know I know, it's great, we know. I've been working on tweaking inference engines for a week now and it's been one shotting most of my vague prompts without any issues. It will even write tests and

So we’re seeing how Anthropic and OpenAI are gunning for regulations. I think most of us realize that this is a ploy for them to achieve regulatory capture, thus securing their moat and kicking out op

I'm currently using Qwen3.5 4B as the brain of my local AI assistant because my hardware is relatively limited. One thing I really like about it is the speed. On my system, I'm getting around 40–50 to

The full K2 Horizon lineup is out on Artificial Analysis. The AA intelligence vs. parameters plots show that - 0.9B and 375B are bad - 3.7B and 7B are SOTA - 36B A4B is SOTA for hardware with poor mem

Hello Reddit. Posting this for fun. I thought it was a lonely and silly journey to set up Qwen 3.8 Next on a system that doesn't really run it properly—it was a challenge that might help the community

Now that the dust has settled a bit - here's a write-up on running Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (125B-A6B MoE + 51B n-gram table) on relatively middle-tier hardware (RTX 4070 12GB + 64GB DDR5-5600 + Gen4 NVMe o

Since we know Qwen 3.8 27B thinks quite long, but gives at least a good one-shot result where you can leave it to do everything on it own, how does it compare to the older series of models for very si
