Personally I was wishing/hoping for one of the recent Gemma releases to be in the ~100B class at least, but sadly Google is keeping that all for themselves.

- segmondy 3mo agoif it's to be believed, it's so easy. you distill it, and you have a copy in 2 weeks, isn't that what China is doing? so 2 weeks from now, we should have one.

- RazorBucksICO 3mo agoInkling is in the ballpark
- kostyal 3mo agoMSL or SpaceXAI open sourcing one of their coming big models is pretty likely, both are fans of open source and there’s gonna be competition to be the American Kimi
