Yeah, I think we will know more within a couple of days, once people actually download/run/test it. I'm sure the people adjacent to the 'heretic' developers will give it a test as soon as they get their hands on it.

Do I really need to? No, not really. The 27B full density, 35B MoE, 70B and 122B models I have in use get me 95% of the way there on a lot of things. Particularly when dealing with languages and systems where I have at least an intermedia

Indeed not, but I was saying there's more than ample precedent which is tested/working and actually doesn't refuse anything. Go to the Huggingface 'models' search interface and type in "heretic". Or uncens

I agree it's very likely to be painfully slow, I very much want to see some real world results from people who try it. Early testers will inform others on whether it's even worth trying. Results very much TBD right now. I don'

The performance bottleneck is not really so much the number of cores or processing power in each core, but the memory bus bandwidth to/from the CPU. I have an older dual socket xeon server here which is a CPU-only LLM test machine with

As a completely one person, single sample anecdote, the 'heretic' uncensored Q8 GGUF variants several people have published of Qwen 3.5-122, 3.6-27B and 3.6-35B-A3B will very happily discuss just about any controversial topic that

It will be very interesting to see what kind of 'slow' performance people get from running it on a no GPU, but tons of RAM server (like a dual or quad socket xeon with 1.5 to 3TB of RAM). For the purpose of giving it longer durati

Audio recordings aren't good enough, this is why I keep 24x7 recordings of my life in 8K (4320p) raw YUV 4:4:4 color space video with uncompressed 24-bit audio. The NVME RAID array bills are getting a bit steep, however.

Note, the post title field isn't long enough, this is a skyrim themed username used on a 3rd party service. Not for the name used by character in Skyrim itself, which is not (without extensive and rare modding) a multiplayer game.
