It will also be very interesting to see some direct head to head benchmarks between qwen 3.6 27B (let's say all at Q8 XK quantization, using the GGUF that unsloth publishes as a baseline) vs 3.8 27B. Particularly in tool use, terminal

I think also that a large/smart/fast LLM can automate testing things with QEMU for at least moderately common architectures like motorola 68000, throw code at it rapidly and try different iterations.
