@0xSero @loktar00 Do you want a point in time dataset? Or just a search/scrape tool?

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

Feeling the AGI? 👀

We can no longer say open-source AI is months behind frontier models.

GLM-5.2 matches Sonnet-5 in parameter size, but absolutely crushes it in performance, speed, and cost.

Just imagine when GLM drops a 1.6T or 5T model—Opus and Fable won't even stand a chance.

At this point, it's more accurate to say closed-source AI is months behind open-source.

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

Gotta get your GLM up

[Jun Song @jun_song]

What people are missing about the US government's AI regulation announcement:

ID verification will now be forced on all accounts to prove citizenship.

Frontier labs will take your data, and your sovereignty is officially dead.

A permanent underclass division and a total control society are beginning right now.

People ignored me when I started saying this last year, but it is happening right in front of our eyes.

Get into Open-Source and Sovereign AI.

Advancing together through collective intelligence is the only way to fight back.

A few years ago, I used to dream about fast cars, beautiful girlfriends, and expensive houses.

Now, the only thing I'm obsessed with is fast, beautiful, and expensive VRAM.

Because that one thing has it all.

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@MiaAI_lab @NVIDIAAI looking forward to seeing this

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@0xSero oooh this looks sick. any implications for test time compute?

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@support_huihui Nice work. If you do 35B I have code to run on a single 3090

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@fraserpricee Sick dude how are you profiling? Is there a standard way to do it? Or just native vLLM

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@Dimillian See remote session from other machines for sure. And ssh session. All in app

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

Sending to my therapist

[Jun Song @jun_song]

When you feel exhausted with life and just want to give up on everything,

Try buying 500GB of VRAM.

It will fix everything.

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@jun_song Thank you bro!

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

This is sick. Would love to help

Got Ornith 35B Q5 at 128k on a single 3090 👀

q8 K / turbo2 B, + moved two MoE tensors to cpu to fit it. About ~68 tok/s

[Mia @MiaAI_lab]

If you mainly use local LLMs for Hermes-style agentic loops, this might surprise you:

Qwen 3.6 35B actually *beats* DeepSeek v4 Flash — especially on tool-heavy & coding-adjacent workflows.

You're not missing out.

@adnanthekhan @modal Agreed. Hermes agent is the perfect harness, you can override default search/bfetch tools with SearXNG and Scrapling

[Adnan Khan @adnanthekhan]

This is amazing.

If you’re in offensive security no-brainer to have this deployed on something like @modal or other serverless provider.

Costs nothing when idle and you have an absolutely unhinged model for $10-15 a hour when you need it.

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

i think @support_huihui's Qwen 3.6 27B abliterated is the best uncensored model for small single gpu. runs nicely on an H100

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

repe is not going well. control vectors are harder than i thought. maybe i need an SAE idk

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

x has inspired me to play with open source llms. getting a good eval suite together

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

i have no idea how @0xSero manages to tweet this much. trying to match some of that energy so i can share my experiments, codex is going to help. more soon 👀

[Ben Everman @beneverman]

@thsottiaux can you please show us when resets are going to expire. im trying to get codex to hit the backend rn would much prefer to just see it in UI
