A bit off topic, but I think I'm starting to get model fatigue. These come out 10x faster than new Javascript frameworks were coming out 10 years ago (at least new models are far easier to adopt).

it's funny that the tagline is Radically Open, but you're immediately hit with http login - maybe this was the wrong link?

Fully open models really need to be a big part of the AI future. That includes all source code, open training data, how it's organized, fed to the model, processed, etc. Until that becomes a thing you're always going to be left wondering what exactly lies underneath the closed model you are using, leaving open the possibility for societal manipulation.

But it's missing the all-important charts that the blog had before it started asking for authentication.

It's not the blog post, but there's some info here:

https://ifm.ai/k2/

375 A23B, 36 A4B, 32B, 7B, 3.7B, 0.9B variants.

> 32B: Ranking among the top models in its class, 32B is our most powerful dense model, balancing capability, adaptability, and local deployability.

> 7B: The industry’s best-performing model under 10B combines strong software engineering and expert knowledge in a package small enough to run on a phone.
