Model Releases
1 Day in and I feel okay saying Muse-Glimmer-30B finally beats 3.6-27B for the size in some use-cases
A few things right off the bat: it reasons very efficiently. Like Grok 4.5 levels of efficient thinking it quantizes very well. My first few tests with iq3_xxs were better than Qwen/Gemma behaved at t
A few things right off the bat: it reasons very efficiently. Like Grok 4.5 levels of efficient thinking it quantizes very well. My first few tests with iq3_xxs were better than Qwen/Gemma behaved at that size its knowledge depth is amazing. It beats Qwen3.6 27B on no-tools trivia. in OpenCode it is a much more efficient agent than 27B. Both models accomplish their tasks but Muse-Glimmer got there faster every time I'll say that it's worse at most things coding, probably being closer to Gemma4-31B level.. but damn there's a lot of places where I'd use this model on a 24GB GPU right now and it's been a while since anything has filled that spot except for 3.6-27B submitted by /u/ForsookComparison [link] [comments]
