Edge0-145B: Frontier AI Capabilities on Your Own Computer

> Sharing matrices substantially reduces the weights that must be stored and moved while keeping the expert count unchanged. Each group of 64 experts shares two large matrices, while each expert retains a small set of parameters that captures its differences.

145B parameters with only peak 29GB memory usage - really impressive, truly something you can actually run on a decent spec MBP

I'm really impressed with the Blender examples. It's amazing how far "tool use" has come, when it now means using a tool as complicated as Blender to perform work that would take a human days to complete. I'm a little skeptical the actual models are workable, in the sense that a human could come in after and manually refine and apply better textures, etc. Historically, agent-made designs are messy as hell, and by the time you clean them up, you haven't saved any time. But, that's begun to get better; the best models are now very good at making clean shape-based SVGs, for example, that are no messier than what a human would make in Inkscape or Illustrator. But, I'll definitely give it a try.

Harness improvements like context pruning, malformed tool call healing also very helpful to boost smaller local models. Doing alot of work in this area lately. Qwen 27B in Terminal Bench 2.1 73->85 for instance.

Is this a derived from flash next? That's the impression I get from reading over everything. Using Strata + Qwen 3.8 Flash Next now and I am beyond impressed. It's basically as capable as 5.6 Luna in my hands so far. If this is an upgrade I can't wait to try it out.

Thy have shipped this as NVFP4 so its Nvidia blackwell only, presumably their inference engine doesn't support anything outside CUDA 13 specified either. Will be interesting to see if this gains some other quants and other inference engines pick it up and we get some standard GGUF files, its a bit of weird release at the moment rather than GGUF file downloads the variants link on HF is leading to a directory of stuff which contains the model spread across a variety of files.

Are there any iOS apps that support the Edge0-35B model? I'm curious to try that out on-device.

TerminalBench scores often correspond to real world performance for coding agents that rely heavily on bash.

This score is roughly on par with 5.6 Terra max, which in my direct experience is perfectly capable of driving a cloud agent harness that can do pretty complex knowledge work.

Definitely worth an evaluation!

What's the point of the 120B model?

Interesting, if 3rd party testing and benchmarking hold the published values this is very exciting. I am a bit skeptical given the model size, but I hope it turns out to be true!

Is the era of one seat per person AI coming?

This is not open source, this is open weights

This smells off.

Why so little information about the company on the corporate website?

I'm really glad they provided us with the graph of "Model Parameters over time", fucking lmao

Damn, guess I can't run this on my desktop. /s

Ok buddy
