We have been working on an open-source, model-neutral agent harness for general purpose agents called TrueForge, and wanted to understand how much the harness itself actually matters. So we ran 14 tas

Continual learning isn't some fake term but a real goal and arguably one of the most important open ones in 2026. It roughly means: ‘building systems that keep acquiring useful knowledge or skills aft

The job of doing inference is not the same for every model ou there, as it depends on the architecture and configurations and the available machines. Many times we would not have the right machines to

This came from another thread or comment. I forgot exactly where, but the basic idea was to replace the 51B N-gram layer in Qwen 3.8 Next with a much higher precision version. Someone running a 5090 r

This was my first serious attempt at tuning a local LLM. I started because Qwen3.8-27B IQ3 was fast on my RTX 5080 but the coding quality disappointed me, and the Q4 profiles I tried in LM Studio were

One of the other posts today by user u/Howard_banister confirmed what I've been seeing from the other AI subreddits as well. Most of these other subs are 90% trend hopping crypto-bros equivalent peopl

I'm looking for a small LLM to act as a Linux command assistant. I will use llama.cpp. use case: - User asks in natural language. Model outputs only the shell command - Should work well with no reason

This may be somewhat specific to Qwen3.8 27b and the Apple M5 series, perhaps, but enough of us are running this combo that it's worth tossing out there. GGUF models with MTP have been the fastest way

Anybody else struggling with deepseek after the initial prompt? Somehow it is getting mixed up very easily, even button functionality has been PITA when doing stuff. Never had these problems with Open

Extended reasoning and post-training appear to be the keys used by DeepSeek, Qwen, and GLM to boost performance (leveraging higher token counts). And Qwen 4 hasn't even been released yet. Of course, w

Quite surprised to be beating other high quality quants. It took a lot of benchmarking to get here and we are quite pleased with these, hope they are useful to the community. It required a modified wa

Hi, I've noticed that the model often sees 'garbled text' in its context. Sometimes it declare that the tools instructions are corrupted, sometimes it is the content of some .md files, ora other files

Hi, everyone, I’ve just released VoxGen, a lightweight native inference engine for VoxCPM2, written in Rust and using Vulkan compute instead of Python/PyTorch/CUDA. Why VoxGen? The main reason I start

I'm planning to upgrade my workstation (linux with 5700X/64GB DDR4) for local inference and pytorch training. I'm trying to decide between: 2× AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700 32GB 2× AMD Radeon PRO W7800 48GB

Not written by AI all mistakes mine. I saw people on the subreddit saying that 3.6 works better without thinking. It made me want to know for certain about which is better, 3.6 or 3.8 for low thinking

Just to name a few: running Qwen3 8B on a 32GB GPU running Qwen3.6-27B Q4_K_M on 2 x R9700 quote: 'each prompt was sized at 500 input and 500 output tokens' for a full system that costs $18,775?? I do

If you are thinking what model will fit best your HW specs and tasks you are doing here is one table with all currently popular models that still can be considered as local. LLM Test Scores Feature De

I got the CMP170 cards and unlocked them. I wanted to share my set up for CUDA since maybe it would be useful to others. First off, I hate e-waste and we are in a special time for RAM. I wanted to hav

Based on https://huggingface.co/hardware, the RTX 3090 is the second most used GPU by LLM enthusiasts. Because RTX 3090 has native INT8 tensors cores, it can provide better performance with INT8 W8A8.

Yoyo I'm back with updates to the fastest inference engine with minimal quality loss for Qwen3.8-27B. The last few weeks I've been optimizing decode speed and I don't think it can be pushed further, u

Kaitchup just posted results of his benchmarks for Qwen3.8 27B for quants from different labs, Q4 to Q1, . All the details are hidden behind the paywall, but high level result is visible and looks lik

Hello! I've just uploaded a recent checkpoint of my model trained from scratch: https://huggingface.co/piotr-ai/polanka_3.7b_exp_wip_260901 It was pre-trained, mid-trained, and fine-tuned on a single

I was browsing HF for small LLMs and run into this model. It does not seem to be a fine tune - the model has its own architecture. https://huggingface.co/XHToken/Spark-X2.5-1.7B https://huggingface.co

I only started using some vLLM forks recently in a 4 x 48GB 4090 system. DS4F - ~5000pp/180tg (DSpark) Qwen3.8 Flash next - ~7500pp/135tg (MTP) This is amazing, like having the API in my house. But it

I am absolutely blown away. Yes my setup is crap but the fact that it managed to do this in a single take is unbelievable (and I'm a developer). Hardware used: - Windows PC with 4070ti (12GB VRAM, 32G

if you are on Qwen Flash Next make sure to update your build often https://preview.redd.it/zoq3j9gnjvmh1.jpg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bb21bc405696df94fd5ce38c22f4ca6dc596135f merged already (

I posted a new gfx906 based llama.cpp fork a few days ago. One of the main points of critique was that i did not provide sufficient numbers for the gains to be achieved. -- TL;DR: After switching our

I used a famous Simon Willison's pelican riding a bicycle prompt on the biggest local LLMs that can run on 128GB Apple Silicon. U used quantizations by Unsloth. Qwen3.8 Flash-Next gives a lot of detai

I've made a modification of llama.cpp MTP for people that want to run models like QWEN 27B on 16GB and similar setup, the focus is reducing the memory cost of MTP allowing more speed for less ctx cost

I haven't had a chance to test it yet, but it looks very promising. It seems to speed up MTP for MoE models across different draft widths (especially greater than 1). Check the benchmarks. submitted b

I'm very happy with Qwen-3.8-27B, I run it on my work machine and switched for major part of real coding tasks from cloud subscriptions to it. I use one dedicated headless RTX 3090, and get maybe 1000

TL;DR: this paper proposes a method to fix hallucination rates to very low levels or zero by disabling neurons which contribute to hallucination. This discovery has been out for a while now, but it ha

Hi all, I have recently been experimenting with different LLM set ups and after everyone was raving about how good Qwen 3.8 27b was, I was inspired to try and get it deploying. After some battling wit

Just ordered a TB5 enclosure plus 4TB SSD to prepare for M5 Ultra 512GB. I am planning to download the following models in advance. Would like to ask the M3 Ultra 512GB owners whether the quants are t

Repo: https://github.com/Saren-Arterius/qwen3.8-Flash-DGX-AutoRound I forked from blazux/qwen3.8-Flash-DGX and stole all the ideas from previous qwen 3.5 122b recipes, and created a hybrid model with

When using kvarn quants at low context depth tg speed is similar to llama.cpp on and equivalent qx_x quant. However, as context depth grows kvarn tanks your tg speed. This fork optimises kvarn to have

Hello! I was looking into quantizing models and i saw how Hy4 was shrunk from 1.5 TB to 200GB with high retention in benchmarks (98% i think). I was wondering if: a) it would be worth it to attempt th

Hey guys, I tested Qwen3.8 Flash with llama.cpp from CPU-only to the full 96GB of my RTX PRO 6000. Short version: CPU-only reached 8.34 tok/s at a 2K prompt Full 96GB reached 109.07 tok/s At 245K cont
