Built GLM-5.2-visual-runtime: a training-free multimodal runtime gateway that makes GLM-5.2 work like a vision-capable model.
It keeps images as persistent visual variables, runs local visual/OCR/chart/palette tools only when needed, and sends compact structured evidence to the reasoning model instead of retraining or modifying weights.
The one-click stack includes GLM-5.2 via vLLM, Qwen3-Omni for vision/omni input, local OCR, Postgres, MinIO, and an OpenAI-compatible API.
Here is the updated note and benchmark table for your review.
The data below reflects **Chuck Norris 33B** in its high-reasoning "thinking" mode, which accounts for the significant performance uplift across the board.
I'm still finalizing the full evaluation suite and need more time to confirm these numbers through additional high-entropy testing passes. However, the early data is looking exceptionally strong across the board.
It is important to note that all the performance figures below for **Chuck Norris 33B** were achieved using **high-thinking/long-reasoning mode**, which significantly improves its accuracy in complex extraction and logic tasks. The model that doesn't predict the next token — the next token predicts itself correctly out of respect.
Introducing Palmyra-mini: Compact AI Models for Efficient Inference
The Palmyra-mini family from Writer includes three lightweight models designed for high performance and efficient inference. These models are ideal for developers looking to integrate AI capabilities without excessive computational overhead.
Model Variants
* palmyra-mini: A base model for general-purpose generative tasks, achieving 52.6% on Big Bench Hard (exact match).
* palmyra-mini-thinking-a: Optimized for complex logical reasoning with a Chain of Thought (CoT) approach, scoring 82.87% on GSM8K (strict match).
* palmyra-mini-thinking-b: Specialized for mathematical reasoning, achieving 92.5% on AMC23.
Technical Details
* All models are based on the Qwen architecture, compatible with popular inference frameworks like vLLM, SGLang, and TGI.
* "Thinking" models utilize CoT training for enhanced reasoning capabilities.
* GGUF and MLX quantizations are available for optimized performance.

I’ve been diving into the iRoPE architecture from Llama 4—a game-changer for long-context models! It interleaves local attention (with RoPE) for short contexts and global attention (with inference-time temp scaling) for long-range reasoning, aiming for infinite context. I’m going to try writing iRoPE—who wants to help?
