The era of scaling alone is ending.

For years, bigger models meant better models. That is changing.

Today, a single person with enough dedication can build systems that were once only possible inside the largest AI labs. Progress is no longer defined by compute alone, it is defined by engineering, persistence, and ideas.

This release is the beginning of that shift.

We believe useful intelligence can be distilled into sub-billion parameter models. Our goal isn't to build the biggest models. It's to build the smartest models for their size.

Others will surpass this model in months, perhaps weeks. That's not the point.

The point is to prove that another future is possible, one where capable AI runs everywhere, belongs to everyone, and no longer depends on massive infrastructure.

This is just a spark.

Welcome to the next era.

uhh the model is kinda dumb Example:
“Make this more concise: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.”

Produced a long unrelated explanation instead of a concise rewrite.
The model is functional, but this checkpoint does not appear reliably instruction-tuned for rewriting tasks in Transformers.

That is expected for a 90m param model
