I'm releasing Tess-4-9B.
Tess-4-9B is the compact sibling of Tess-4-27B, built on the Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B-Base model.
It was post-trained on the same deliberate blend as the 27B release: 64K-token long-context agentic traces — real engineering work done with Fable-5, not synthetic generations — with a reasoning style approximated from Fable-5 by a three-model teacher ensemble (Opus-4.8, GPT-5.5, and GLM-5.2) fused into one coherent voice.
Significant improvement on all measured axes against Qwythos-9B.
We grew a very big model in a very tiny pot. 🌱
Meet Bonsai 27B; a 27B-class multimodal model that fits on a phone.
🪴 3.9 GB at 1-bit
💻 5.9 GB in ternary
🧠 Reasoning, vision, tool use
🔓 Apache 2.0
Small footprint. Full-grown intelligence.

@PrismML I don't know if you all understand how revolutionary it is!
This density of intelligence, so you can run it even on 8 gb VRAM with reasonable context window if kv cache size allows this...
This is truly "Free intelligence for everyone"!
Today, we’re announcing Bonsai 27B: the first 27B-class model to run on a phone.
Bonsai 27B is the new multimodal flagship of the Bonsai family. Based on Qwen3.6 27B, it brings a new capability tier to local AI: multi-step reasoning, structured tool use, long-context workflows, and coherent agentic loops.
Until now, models in this class have been impractical to deploy locally. A 27B model occupies roughly 54 GB in 16-bit precision, and even a strong 4-bit build is around 18GB - too large for a phone and for most laptops.
Bonsai 27B changes that.
It comes in two variants:
• Ternary Bonsai 27B: 5.9 GB, 1.71 effective bits per weight, optimized for laptop-class quality.
• 1-bit Bonsai 27B: 3.9 GB, 1.125 effective bits per weight, optimized for phone-class footprint.
Everything is open-sourced today under the Apache 2.0 license.
⚡️ Tencent HY-World 2.1 is HERE!
Not a video. A world. 🪐
3 months just after 2.0, we've supercharged everything:
✨ Cleaner geometry
✨ Sharper rendering
✨ Larger explorable range
It's a REAL 3D world you can Walk through and Interact with.
The Sonnet tier of models was already dead before, with Kimi-K3 I expect the Opus tier to become obsolete too
Frontier Labs have to go to 10T models now
Very interesting to see more attention on 1b quants
Idk how well it will actually benchmark but once we get decent models at 1bit that changes the game
Fable 5 just DOMINATED GPT 5.6 Sol.
And this time there is no debating it.
BridgeBench V3, our new arena, runs both models on the identical task and a judge panel picks the winner.
Final score: Fable 5 wins 67-10. An 87% win rate.
Scoreboards said they were neck and neck.
Head to head, Fable 5 is destroying GPT 5.6.
BridgeBench V3 alpha is open source.
Link below. See every match yourself.

Thanks for all the love and support❤️❤️❤️
🐦Ornith will be open source and will continue pushing local LLM experience forward.

Massive Hermex update just dropped!
If you’re on iOS and not already Hermex-ing it up, this is currently the best way to access and control your Hermes Agent from your iPhone — and now iPad!!
@uzairansar cooked on this one! 🔥🔥🫡
