Hey everyone! I am trying to go really deep into Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. Not just learning how to use the latest models and frameworks, but understanding how we reached here from

For the last few weeks most of my coding has been done locally with Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, so I gave it and Opus 5.5 the same high complexity feature to build on LlamaStash (a complex and large Rust proj

We've been building a benchmark out of real concurrency bugs (race conditions, deadlocks, cancellation issues) taken from merged PRs in about 100 Python projects. Each task gets graded by the project'

https://huggingface.co/Dankpaws/Swift1.5-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-MLX-4.7bpw I've had the 96GB Mac Studio with M5 Ultra for about a week now and wasn't satisfied with the results I was getting from the limi

Octop is an open-source, self-hosted AI assistant. Through its multi-agent architecture, it builds an intelligent environment that is both independent and collaborative for teams, families, and indivi

Someone who has always loved looking at the space between different AI techniques, this time I went a little deeper into the memory trade-offs between RNNs, Transformers and SSMs. I found it interesti

Looks like Unsloth is updating https://huggingface.co/unsloth/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF to work with llama.cpp, so hopefully this will resolve the issue of having two different GGUF versions of Qwen Fla

At my company, we’re using GLM-5.3 Flash internally for software engineering work, and I’ve been genuinely impressed by it. I work in a very large production environment with projects totaling **milli

Hi, I'm on M4 Pro 64GB Mac, I'm using Qwen3.8 27B for coding related stuff, but it's quite slow. I want a fast model that will be good when it comes to reasoning, medical stuff, would be nice if it co

Over the past several months, we conducted an empirical post-mortem investigation into 109 autonomous AI agent security incidents (cataloged with 193 falsification criteria across tool-use and multi-a

A while ago, I posted here getting OSS-120B and GLM-4.6 playing full games of Civilization V. Since then, models have moved pretty far, and we wanted a better understanding about models' capabilities

Hi r/LocalLLaMA. I'm on the team at Blockway, a small team in Hong Kong (disclosure: this is our model). Today we released Agens Volundr 32B Preview, the first model built on our own hybrid architectu

Disclosure: I made this. Sharing it here because it is fully local and small, and I want feedback from people who run models on their own machines. What it is: a 395M decision model (ModernBERT-large

In this project, I distilled the Stockfish value function into a ResNet/ViT model using 1 billion positions from the Gigafish dataset. The 3.9 billion position dataset is available on huggingface: htt

Purely a hobby side project to see how far I can push a really small model, using (mostly) automated training pipelines Full synthetic data: https://huggingface.co/datasets/dirac-run/ec-training-data

After some recommendations for hardware (I'm starting from nothing), in the region of £6-7k. I will be mainly looking to use it for coding and have found Deepseek V4.1 Flash or Qwen3.8 27b good and so

Picture from a post in r/amodei . People were praising qwen and I'm just wondering, what kind of new technologies are at play here? Does qwen just have 'better' pre training data? That's more high qua

Hey r/LocalLLaMA, Like many anime fans, I've always been frustrated by traditional MT engines (like Google Translate or base DeepL) when dealing with raw Japanese anime: - They completely butcher Japa

Bit of a side project I wanted to share. The metrics are 17.5tks decode, 360tks prompt processing based testing against my normal ai usage. I tested a couple of new things others haven’t done (at leas

This is related to my previous post where I shared an encoder-only transformer model trained on ohiot1dm + shanghait1dm + azt1d datasets. This time I trained the model on the outputs of my T1DM patien

Following on from club-5060ti and club-rdna16, I’ve put together Infermeld: a small, open-source Linux companion kit for running one GGUF across an AMD GPU and an NVIDIA GPU, powered by llama.cpp. I’m

Hi everyone! I'm part of the Lokutor team. Last week we presented Oído here, and the response was amazing. We've received dozens of videos and messages from you guys saying you love it. Thank you! Now

Finally finished my fork: https://github.com/IceFog72/ik_llama.cpp Nothing else I wanted to add/try currently works In short, it now has: Bandwidth-adaptive CPU/GPU execution Shared expert-residency i

Hey all, I don't know if you guys are experiencing the same thing, but there is this behaviour that i have been noticing on the latest models on openAI (since sol 5.6) and Anthropic since Fable 5.1 an

Hi everyone, thank you so much for all the interest in my model. It's more than I expected. Here is a short summary of the trial and error I went through while building Apex-2. 1. GPUs were always the

Looking for some assistance /ideation. I am running qwen flash next q4 in my Mac mini m5 64gb. QFN doesn’t fit so this is done by having as many experts hot in cache as possible and streaming in the r

I'm using Qwen3.8-Flash-Next running on my Mac Studio as a daily driver for coding + productivity tasks, and yesterday it did something weird: I had it do some product research on amazon, so it was do

Said in title, I find the ecosystem difficult to understand, and RTFMing doesn't help me as it's never clear what is the server vs their client library ? I'm using it for voxtral 3B on one GPU, but it

I wanted to test how well local models perform in agentic development with Copilot CLI. I started ollama launch copilot --model qwen3.5:9b. I gave it simple instruction in autopilot mode to create a f

So PewDiePie decides to fine-tune a local AI model called Ajax on his own computer. Pretty normal stuff for local model fans. To make his dataset, he uses OpenAI's API. OpenAI catches him using their

Hi folks, LIVE PROJECT PAGE TLDR: Moral of the story. You need better CPU to do actual agentic coding doing real work... I've been on a mission to make my RTX5090 go brrr for past 2 months so much so

Hey all. We've spent the last weeks getting Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (125B MoE, 6B active) to run properly on one AMD Strix Halo box (Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB). Tonight we're releasing both the 95 GB EXL3
