This is exactly the kind of model that's been needed in the middle. Realistically self-hosted, Good Enough intelligence, MoE so it's fast on limited bandwidth systems like Strix Halo and DGX Spark.

For a while there's been nothing to run on my Strix Halo that's notably better than what I can run on my dual 32GB GPU desktop (Gemma 4 or Qwen 3.6 dense models), but this seems likely to be the step up in size that actually works better than those.
