So you’ve got a 3090 or maybe even a 5090? Or more likely a 4060 8GB Ti. You wanna try local AI, you don’t know what it can/can’t do. 1) Install the best model you can. If you have a 3090 or a 5090, t

SenseNova released U1.5-Lite-Preview Benchmarks: Qwen-Image-Bench from 47.14 to 55.20. ImgEdit-Bench from 3.90 to 4.37. GEdit-Bench-en from 7.47 to 8.17. Key updates: 4K native generation with better

First of all, I want to apologize if it's off-topic or in the wrong format. Having tried Deepseek Flash with reasoning high on a conceptually difficult task, involving Machine Learning classifiers and

Been working hard for the past month to bring to the community some interesting curios, so for starters we have LongCat-Flash-Lite Uncensored Heretic with MTPs which has never before been uncensored,

I can run the mediums, but sometimes I want a faster option that's smarter than Qwen 27B/35B. On my hardware I get like 500 to 800 tok/s prefill and 16 to 22 tok/s gen on ~120B class models, which is

Okay, hear me out. Why is it that every time a new model comes out, all the tests I see are 'make a car game,' 'make a website,' or something equally generic, usually from a prompt that's barely a lin

I was surprised to see that Deepseek V4 Flash is extremely smart and small enough to fit in setup that can be built with < $50,000. Expensive, but not a datacenter. So I wanted to see the trend over t

Hello together I decided to go with 2× Radeon AI PRO R9700 GPUs (64 GB total VRAM) for my local AI server. However, I keep reading that AMD/ROCm is still not as mature as NVIDIA/CUDA when it comes to

I've been benchmarking a two-card box for a few weeks and I still can't quite get over some of these numbers, so I'm dumping them here. Box: RTX 4090 (24GB) + RTX 5060 Ti (16GB), i9-13900K, 64GB DDR5.

I recently shared the original MindControl PoC (and on github) - sampler-level guided reasoning budgets for llama.cpp, nudging the model with self-aware statements about its own thinking budget instea

I ran into a doubt when using the following command. It seems that the System RAM usage keeps increasing even though there is >10GB of space left in VRAM while using the MTP mode. Does the MTP head lo

Hi all, I have not seen this model talked about here but it seems like baseten (inference provider on OpenRouter) merged the vision encoder from Kimi k2.6 into GLM 5.2. I think the lack of vision was

I'm guessing 3 years, what do you think? In other words: many of us will be able to afford a general purpose robot in 3 years to experiment with in the home. Cost roughly $5k? Probably small size, but

I saw u/danielhanchen's 1-bit Kimi K3 post: https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Kimi-K3-GGUF/discussions/12#6a6a4a90ec74ef13d85d7cf6 and decided to test Inkling-Small and Qwen3.6-27B myself, based on the f

I've been thinking about building a pipeline to generate reasoning training data for LLMs, but I want to avoid the common failure mode of synthetic data where you just generate the same template with

Context: I want to give the community an Open Research (well open under Apache 2.0 clause) - tool that allows everyday users like us to look deeper into the local models we use consistently. Mechanist

I've tested Nanbeige-4.2-3B. On paper, the benchmarks promise it blows away Qwen3.5-9B and Gemma4-12B. My goal was to have something very light and fast to replace Qwen3.6-35B (or finetunes thereof) f

Hello, I have a friend who's using various local LLM's like qwen3.6 27B, 35b-a3b, North Mini Code, and qwen2.5-vl-7b (just for vision). They have a use case where they're trying to have an LLM drive a

For 6 months now I've been trying to make agentic coding work for me, using Pi and a handful 30-120B models (Qwens, Nemotrons, Leguna...etc). I'm not greedy either, I stick to decent quants, never qua

Its a custom Swift/Metal inference engine that runs Gemma 4 26B-A4B-IT on M-series Macs with very low RAM. It uses ~2GB instead of ~14 GB. The result is reportedly 5–6 tok/s on an 8 GB M2 MacBook Air

Are there any benchmarks on these 4 bit quants, like how Artificial Analysis runs a slew of various benchmarks? If not, how can I run one (5x over for consistency) on them? I'm also very interested in

A while back you couldn't open reddit or youtube without sifting through tons of Openclaw content. And it wasn't just the internet that blew up, I remember seeing images from China where crowds would

Is Qwen 3.6 27b still the go' ol' reliable at this point? I know 35b is faster but it just doesn't give as good results. Is it possible to run deepseek v4 flash on a single spark at decent tk/s withou

I've tried grok and Claude's deep research mode and I was amazed with the speed considering the amount of sources analysed. Is there anything as fast that can run locally? My guess would be that to ru

If you were able to get an inference machine that could do decode at 1k toks/s or even 10k tok/s, would that even be helpful? Would it unlock any new use cases? Let’s assume that this is for actually

I know this is the 1000000th new sub billion parameter model out there and probably isn't as good as Qwen 3 0.6B or Qwen 3.5 0.8B but it still packs a decent punch. My intention to to continuously pre

If your GGUF has MTP/NextN tensors baked in (GLM-5.2, hy_v3, qwen35moe, step35, etc.), recent llama.cpp builds load them by default — even if you never pass --spec-type draft-mtp. Before, they were sk

On the CPU, batch 1 is memory bandwidth bound. But if token/s = bandwidth / (bytes_per_weight * active_weights_per_token) the total number of parameters doesnt slow down the generation speed. So build
