GGUFs are out too, well done Unsloth as usual!

I've been using M2.7 through the Alibaba coding plan for a bit now, and am quite impressed with it's coding ability, and even more impressed when I see how small it is. Fascinating really, makes me wonder how big the frontier models are.

"Helped build itself" is a bit of a stretch here, it makes it sound as if the model was doing lasting self-improvements.

What the article describes is that the model was able to tweak to its own deployment harness (memory, skills, experimental loop etc) to improve performance on benchmarks. While impressive, it's not doing any modifications to its own weights by e.g. modifying the training code.

For those who like open source so much they want to use a provider

Could you explain the incompatibility? These seem like orthogonal axes to me.

Just a joke, but you’re right I can like open source and not want to self host

It should be at least cheaper if anyone can host it, no?
