Keep these models coming! And hopefully with vision modality included in the future
Great work with this model, really impressed with its capacity. Just missing the vision modality and it is literally the perfect sub-agent model.
Not sure how hard it would be to add a vision encoder of some sort (even if basic) to a model like this, but I think it would be a major addition. Most people realistically only have access to 8 GB VRAM, so that new model at Q8 would ideally occupy only around 3 GB VRAM and the rest would go for context (100k +).
Any future 2B/2.5B models with vision planned?
Thanks for the kind words, glad the model is working well for you!
On vision: multimodal is on our roadmap and we do plan to open-source those models β stay tuned.
