Better than Opus 4.8 on complex tasks but tends to overthink. It found a bunch of bugs and architecture issues that only 5.6 Sol Max and Fable on my C++ projects.

It depends on what you need, but Krea/Klein9b/Ideogram4/Z-Image are among the best right now for text2image and Qwen Edit and Klein are probably still the best at editing.

It also goes to show that Fable/Sol must be 4-5T in size.

Ling/Ring 1T-A50B and the new Inkling 975B-A41B deserve to be on that list.

Which would be very interesting to test, as larger models (such as Deepseek V4 Flash or Qwen 397B) seem to compress better. Their Q2 quants are usable as is, even without the terna…

Please don't use that garbage. Just use the base Qwen models or Nex/Orinth, as those are the only properly post-trained finetunes. The Qwopus models are marketing.

"DeepSeek-V4-Flash will fit" At Q2, 2bit? Lobotomized to death.

NVFP4 will be better if the model provider actually post-trained properly after quantizing.

You're late to the party, mate; we've been doing this for years. Grab a SearXNG instance, stand up an MCP server for it, and expose the tool into your system prompt. Or use Brave S…

How is this not getting any traction? This is a massive problem. Pretty much every Reddit news app out there is now dead.

Did you even use it? It was nerfed to hell and back. It stopped following instructions, forgot what sub-agents responded and so on. Stop spreading this pro-Anthropic narrative. The…
