Hey ya'll, Happy Thanskgiving to everyone who celebrates and thank you for being a subscriber, I truly appreciate each and every one of you! We had a blast on today's celebratory stream, especially given that today's "main course" was the amazing open sourcing of a reasoning model from Qwen, and we had Junyang Lin with us again to talk about it! First open source reasoning model that you can run on your machine, that beats a 405B model, comes close to o1 on some metrics 🤯 We also chatted about a new hybrid approach from Nvidia called Hymba 1.5B (Paper, HF) that beats Qwen 1.5B with 6-12x less training, and Allen AI releasing Olmo 2, which became the best fully open source LLM 👏 (Blog, HF, Demo), though they didn't release WandB logs this time, they did release data! I encourage you to watch todays show (or listen to the show, I don't judge), there's not going to be a long writeup like I usually do, as I want to go and enjoy the holiday too, but of course, the TL;DR and show notes are right here so you won't miss a beat if you want to use the break to explore and play around with a few things!

And you couldn't say anything. so this week. I'm going to do a TLDR. So we're going to actually talk about the stuff that, you know, in depth a little bit later, but this week, obviously one of the biggest kind of open source or sorry, open weights, and news is coming from our friends at Qwen as well, as we always celebrate.[00:01:56] Alex Volkov: So one of the biggest things that we get as.
